But every time I've shopped there I've found some great stuff and they have overall some extremely reasonable prices. Plus there's a bunch of other cool stores as well as restaurants and breweries within walking distance or a very short drive so it makes for a fun day trip. I'm hoping to stop through there next week actually! Enjoyed the video, cheers!

Makes you wonder how rare some of this stuff is when it seems like there’s so many out there sealed. I think in the 90's people started to preserve the toys more than open them unlike in the 70's and 80's. Still very cool to see all these. Seems like this stuff is all in the midwest unlike the two coasts. Anyhow, I wish Elliott went on the trip. Love that kid! He’s so intelligent like his father and mother!

@lanceknightmare Жыл бұрын
That was the same era I used to play with action figures. I would come up with the most basic plots in my head. The action figures would eventually end up battling each other. Those turtle figures which have the white circular joints are really good. If an arm falls off you can just put it back on. The plastic pin joints on the other hand like with the Power Rangers in Space figures . Once an arm or a leg falls off it is off unfortunately. My all time favorite figures were the Batman and Robin era figures. Even though they did not have the ball joints, these figurines were made very durable. All of the small accessories like swords and plastic suits were pretty cool as well.

This guy's called "a legend" in this hobby for a reason. He's kind,respectful, and just all around a kid who grew up and can get this stuff now. It's very inspiring. I'm new to the hobby and only own a few figures, but hopefully, I'll find grails at some point.
