[@jeremytibbetts9663]

I've been collecting for a long time and first experienced a con in late 2019 and thought wow that was great I can't wait to do more of those....then covid happened. And I had to wait forever but I hit up as many as I can now. They're just the most fun you can have in this community.

[@Enoxix.]

Why don’t we have these kind of conventions here in The Netherlands! Would be so awesome!

[@VogueDistortion]

There must be similar things in The Netherlands. We have a couple of great conventions in Belgium with vendors from The Netherlands, Germany, France, UK. They are more crowded and maybe less retro toy focused, but fun none the less. I know there is a regular thing in Tilburg.

[@yewnew]

@@VogueDistortion yes, this. Also found info on a convention focussed on toys in Utrecht last year. That was their first time, so I don’t know if it’ll be a regular one

[@VogueDistortion]

@@yewnew Yeah, I think many events are currently postponed or cancelled with Covid. The best thing to do is get into some Facebook groups and people will keep you posted on events. I heard about a really big event in Utrecht coming up. So maybe that's the toy convention you are talking about.

[@yewnew]

@@VogueDistortion you got a name for the event? I don’t have FB

[@VogueDistortion]

@@yewnew No sorry, I don't remember the name of the event anymore. But it is probably cancelled due to Covid restrictions. Maybe you can google it. Or if you have a retro game store in the area you can ask them. They probably know more about events in The Netherlands. Otherwise always welcome in Belgium ;)

[@hanktowersgornio1821]

I feel 10 years old again just watching this video. Thanks so much. Your wife looks like a nice person too.

[@jomehi6863]

Loved the video. Nice to finally get to see your wife. You picked up some great stuff and had a lot of awesome stuff gifted to you. I used to live in the Arlington Texas area. There always seems to be conventions in Texas- Comics, Toys, Cards, etc.

[@svaughn82]

That Radioactive Man #1 is a glow in the dark cover and is probably a 20-25 dollar comic. I have it in my collection and love it.

[@JohnnyVasquez8]

This is a great all around video!! I noticed more woman/females in the comments which means having your wife in the video is a plus for any woman viewers :) it’s so dope you got the award for your booth! 🙏🏾🙏🏾 honestly looks very clean, organized, and filled with great stuff. Lastly, that’s so awesome your editor hooked your wife up with an item she wanted to see/find the most. 🙌🏾🙌🏾 great video Rick, I hope life continues to bless you in more ways than one! 🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@blakimus13]

I had the issue number one Ren and Stimpy comic. I remember as a young kid opening up the sealed plastic and reading Ren’s speech bubble on the cover. It was something like “You idiot! Now the comic is worthless!”

[@Stig69]

11:52 that same exact Peewee doll was the scariest thing of my childhood. My older bro used to torment me with one. Great find!

That was awesome. They had a lot of video games, figurines. Tiger hand held video games. I liked mostly the arcade games.

in quiebec Canada we have the CCJVQ group, a group of video games collector and we meet from time to time in Montreal, its a big event, people are really nice ! mostly speak french but most of them also speak in english ! plus all you buy is in Canadian money so 30% off

that skydancer just straight up said nope im not gonna deal with this kid XDDD

Seeing my wife rifle through vintage toys and games. Nothing is hotter... I might have issues. Lol

34:45 The conventions I have in my area -- there's one thats similar to this con, its called RetroCon and its incredible! It is located in Oaks, PA.

[@noiselabproject9659]

I enjoy watching the joy of 90`s kids collecting even though I`m an 80`s kid and so many franchices aimed at children came out when I was an adult .............. and practically I like to build rome collections on my own cabinets and retro gaming consoles ............... horses for courses ........ indeed

17:37 Haha husbands unite! Wife: so, if you know what this is, then we would get along real well. Rick: I don't...I don't know what that is. What is that?

[@enthusiasticgamer88]

Bro I'm stoked to see you and Pixel Game Squad growing a bunch. Such great content! Quite inspiring too as I'm also trying to find ways to minimize the cost of my collecting at this point so I may have to dip my toe into the world of reselling.

[@RetroMoments]

Great video! Nice to see your wife getting on this as well. Wish you would've taken a look at those NEO-GEO games that I can see in the background sometimes though.

[@TheIllustriouBlueJay]

Too much money lol. Even the cheapest game for that is like $100.

[@covcova]

I remember the foil cover Bartman comic! The plot was teenagers working at the comic printing factory were taking comics before they got foil covered and sold them as “rare errors”, and Bartman had to stop them

[@Jamesandthehooligans]

So cool to see your beautiful wife🤗 I waited 3 days for this and had alerts to remind me but I still fell asleep as it was about to start! 🤪 Still worth the wait though, such fun and interesting gifts from those kind friends and fans 🤩 Thanks again Rick for another awesome video 😎

[@starchad1969]

The Southern Fried Game Expo in Atlanta, Ga is another great gaming convention. They have a even bigger free play arcade area filled with vintage and new machines. I have sold there 3 times and it is always a blast. Also the Toylanta in March is the best show for vintage toys here. Thanks for all of your great content.

[@ryanmarvell793]

Lol your wife is awesome @retrorick she’s beautiful and seems super sweet. Def need to do some more stuff with her like this. Such a fun video.

[@markalepeterson5812]

Just like the games I love to watch and played with. Cool!!

[@robert_roland63]

SEGE this past year was my first video game convention, and it got me back into game hunting again! I’ve broken away for years, and I cannot remember why. I’m ready for another video game convention/expo/whatever! We may have to plan on going to Retropalooza at some point in the future.

[@Flashtone08]

Room is bursting at the seams. Crazy how much stuff you've added in the last year or so.

[@jtlerch]

"Please dont post this" props to Riff for for going for it! (for the record I HATE calling you Riff. Been with you since the start... calling you Riff feels like calling my sister by her real name and not "Brat" which is the only thing I've called her since she was ten.) Anyway great job on the editing "Riff". Great content overall!

[@1uppickups]

Very nostalgic booth. Wish I was there for all the comeups. Keep making these videos. Truly enjoy all that you do. God bless!

Reettroooo Table risers are game changers. It lifts the table and makes it easier for customers. I did trade shows for jewelry and it can definitely have an impact. Also your own lights can do wonders

[@ShiftedGames]

Sky Dancers - The toys were constructed of a pull-string base and a doll with foam wings. When the doll was inserted into the base and the string pulled, the doll would launch into the air, spinning its wings like a propeller as it flew. The flight was like that of a helicopter. The wings often causes temporary blindness because kids were not taught how to use the toys properly. Also, they were a gimmick - there were over 100 different types of this toy produced with different molds.

[@livingthefinaldays]

Your wife saying "for my son" just cracked me up, what a trooper 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The Archie adventure series for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was an incredible comic book series. I was an avid subscriber way back in the early 90s and had just about every single one until they stopped making them later on. Such a fantastic series.

18:57 - 19:00 they were called fry gobblins originally in the 1970's. In 1979 it was changed to the fry guys due to a lawsuit. Finally the fry girls are in 1985 so they are called the fry kids.

Officially a new subscriber.I really enjoyed the content. Keep up the great work. I have just one suggestion. You said yourself that there isn't a convention were you live. So in seeing the passion that you have for what you do already.I think it would be a great business opportunity for you and the wife. Love the energy that you bring to KZbin.It truly shows how much you love your wife and work.
