Toy Hunting & Full Store Tour at THE IMPERIAL CASTLE!

Holy guacamole it is SO easy to get into some REAL TROUBLE toy hunting at what I believe is one of the absolute best vintage toy shops in the country.
Always fresh vintage to look at, grails everywhere and on the way out, the wallet gets burned.
Enjoy this massive hunt and full walkthrough of what truly is a gem of a store.

This place really is a goldmine, dare I say a MUSEUM! It's cool to see the behind the scenes with the sorting and cleaning. I absolutely love John's passion and knowledge for the hobby. John was telling me about that big haul of original G1 Transformers and boxes when I went a couple of weeks ago, I was blown away to see them. Thanks for the walkthrough of the store!

[@SentriTMC]

Couldn’t agree more with all of that buddy! Glad you enjoyed the video! Thank you for watching!

[@CollectingHavok]

that shop is a gold mine... wheeled warriors.. so rarely see those! and always .. always nice to see the inner workings of a shop in the back!

[@SentriTMC]

You’d really enjoy this shop dude. It’s truly magical!

[@yukonphiltoyhunter]

Complete G1 Megatron. Gee who else has one of those lol! Amazing store and so much vintage goodness!

[@SentriTMC]

You’d love this place bro!

🛎️🛎️🙋🏻‍♂️🏠🙌

[@Clappincardboard]

This place looks incredible and John seems like a great guy!

[@SentriTMC]

Both of those statements are very true! One of the best shops on the east coast!

[@antoniusyoutube]

Very impressive shop. So much stuff. And John looks like a great guy. Thanks Ron. Was great to watch. It's on my list to visit.

[@SentriTMC]

This place and hidden treasures are must visits buddy. This store is amazing and John is the man.

[@MrSintastic]

I literally laughed out loud. I contacted him about Megatron already

[@SentriTMC]

😂🤣 how sinful! Go get her bro!!!

[@Zamboman]

Another amazing visit to this wonderful place! Some great stuff on display and some really nice pick-ups! All the best to you and yours over the holidays and into 2024! Stay cool, my friend! Your Pal, Zambo.

[@SentriTMC]

[@LannieLord]

Many of the He Man knock offs turned up in Odd Lots and Job Lots and Odd Job Trading circa 1984 . Also Secret Wars KANG , Dr. Doom and Dr. Octopus .

[@SentriTMC]

I see the odd lots stickers on the carded kos from time to time

[@kieronball8962]

Fun and entertaining tour video and great pick ups, SentriTMC. And what an amazing selection of vintage and modern action figures / vehicles / playsets at the incredible Imperial Castle toy store.

[@SentriTMC]

Thanks buddy! If you make a trip here to the states, it’s a must-visit!!

Good way to deal with the flooding idle time

[@SentriTMC]

Almost forgot about that

[@4feathers]

God you had me at the very beginning with that Megatron man! So many great finds in that store this place never dissapoints and the owner is such a nice guy you could talk toys all day with him. I completely forgot about Stariors I believe I have that same one you picked up,its somewhere in my parents attic . I thought for a minute there you were gonna get that Nightraven man I miss mine. One day Sentri one day I'll get her back. Great video!👊🍻

[@SentriTMC]

Dude, when I walk in there sometimes I wish I collected transformers lol. John is the best! It’s always a great time in there. The starriors piece rides the stalkor mount I believe .. supposed to be a reptilian bot I believe!

[@DarthBlaze]

1st 12 ALL GRADED?! Oh myyy I’m looking forward to this

[@SentriTMC]

Everywhere you turn in there bro!!

[@JordanGhastly]

Another great video! Man, those G1 boxed Transformers are awesome! Once my modern set is complete, I toying around with the idea of grabbing the vintage figures too. This place is a goldmine!

[@SentriTMC]

Oh dude, go get some of this vintage before it really gets out of hand!

[@JordanGhastly]

@@SentriTMC I’d love to, but I’ve got some stuff coming up I gotta take care of. Might be dialing it back a bit on the toy front until Toylanta. I have to get a new computer and take care of some home repairs I’ve been putting off. Oh, the joys of home ownership. 😂🥲

[@SentriTMC]

Grown up stuff first dude!! Always!

[@JordanGhastly]

@@SentriTMC truth. Ain’t no way to do it but to do it!

[@sputnikalgrim]

Another great vid… your Giants roughed up my Packers on MNF. That was rough. Hope you’re well, thnx for making the vid!

[@SentriTMC]

Thanks buddy! Tommy Cutlets!! 🤌🤌 lol

[@SentriTMC]

Thank you brother 🙏🙏

[@PabEsco77]

This video popped up on my feed, awesome toy store. I wonder how much for those motu 8 backs i want a He-Man so bad lol

[@SentriTMC]

One of the very best man! The test shot merman was $800, raw and cas graded heman was $3500. Most of them will be around the $1k ish range. Thanks much for taking the time to watch this video! Happy holidays to you and your family!

[@LannieLord]

Weirdest / Rarest thing I ever saw in Toys R' Us: Jedi Speeder Bike SWING SET for the back yard! It was HUGE .

[@SentriTMC]

I am about to google that.

[@LannieLord]

Nobody talks about it . @@SentriTMC

[@LannieLord]

Unlike other collectors -- I enjoy having a collection is Good / Fair condition w/ issues/ No packages. . Then I am NEVER TEMPTED TO SELL IT !

[@SentriTMC]

Solid approach!

[@bricktrooper540]

that lego sail barge would be very tempting to get. and I saw a girder and panel building toy I haven't seen that in years.

[@SentriTMC]

Dude, the stuff at this store… and yes - very solid Lego selection! I was into Lego pretty serious like 15-20 years ago but I’m a castle guy (which is why I stopped lol).

[@bricktrooper540]

I love castle sets they have given us a few sets the past couple years. hopefully they will bring it back fully one day. @@SentriTMC

[@SentriTMC]

I would love to see that! Lego loves their licensed stuff which i get but I would really enjoy seeing castle get the love it deserves!

[@davidthanos]

Bro I was finally able to see this. I gotta say thank God I don't live near that store I would wind up setting up my direct deposit to that store.

[@SentriTMC]

Thank your lucky stars you live nowhere near this place bro 😂😂

[@davidthanos]

@@SentriTMC yup. I think I saw about 40 things I would buy

[@SentriTMC]

@@davidthanos 😂🤣 yup

[@tim_tazer]

i have to get to this place

[@SentriTMC]

Don’t put it off dude! Go!

[@LannieLord]

I had ONE of the He-Man 3 packs. Bought it when it was NEW. Weird part is - you could NOT get them at Toys R Us. I bought mine at A & S . A higher end department store with a selection of toys ONLY around Christmas time.

[@SentriTMC]

I really want to evil warriors gift set

[@LannieLord]

That's the one I had. had NO CLUE it would be so valuable. @@SentriTMC

[@SentriTMC]

@@LannieLord impossible to find and VERY pricey

[@dignerds]

That's right ..just by pass the She Ra area

[@SentriTMC]

She’s in other videos of this store on this channel. Apologies if I missed one piece of this entire store. Thanks for watching!

[@marc_andreroy]

47 minute Imperial Castle video? Yes please. I haven’t been to this store in a hot minute. Gotta make a trip soon. Hoping John gets in a MOC Turbo Man. He had a loose one earlier in the year that I almost pulled the trigger on, but I really gotta get it MOC. Also “a lot of Dick in this store” had me rollin 😂

[@SentriTMC]

It’s so funny you mention a moc turbo man as we watched jingle all the way last night to kick off the Christmas season and I did my holiday eBay search for the ‘96 release lol

[@SentriTMC]

[@marc_andreroy]

@@SentriTMC that’s funny cause my wife wanted to watch a Christmas movie last week and that’s what we watched lol. I’m kicking myself still because i missed an auction where one sold, super minty box, sealed for like $105. But yea, me too, always on the hunt for that thing lol

[@SentriTMC]

@@marc_andreroy wow, really! $105, jeez..

[@marc_andreroy]

@@SentriTMC yea dude, a steal. The hunt continues

[@GOCHIEFSJMB]

That MOTU gift set just makes me so jealous dude. How much did you throw down for that gem?

[@SentriTMC]

💎💎💎 indeed bro! 1k for the entire lot!

[@mcflyav8]

What's up with your toy room? I'm dying to see the update!!

[@SentriTMC]

Everything is done with the exception of the card cabinets and some extra shelving I decided to have put up once the town CO is delivered. 2% left. Almost there

[@mcflyav8]

Looking forward to the video. : ) @@SentriTMC

[@SentriTMC]

@@mcflyav8 soon brother!!

[@LannieLord]

I'm OLDER than you guys-- I was an ADULT COLLECTOR in 1983 - 1987

[@SentriTMC]

I was born in ‘82! Must’ve been pretty incredible to be an adult collector during that time.

[@LannieLord]

We collected older stuff like the G.I. Joes from the 1960s and 1970s . But we wondered what would be collectible in the future. MOTU seemed to be our focus . Then that CRAP ASS movie came out . MOTU was dying. I had ZERO interest that NEW G,I, Joe line and think is looks AWFUL as a "collectible" and just terrible as a "displayable" thing. Funny story: One week we walked into the MOTU area of Toy's R Us. And the WHOLE end cap- was nothing but RAM MAN. LOL . I always HATEd Ram Man . I could see that others did as well. Two Bad was my absolute favorite ! You can see that - the person that created Two Bad also sculpted Suckerman's face. @@SentriTMC

[@LannieLord]

I collect cereal boxes . My friend just auctioned off the FIRST Mattel 1983 Toy Offer Frosted Flakes box ; It showed the "NEW" MOTU on the back.

[@SentriTMC]

@@LannieLord it’s so funny how things change yet stay the same.. collectors these days say a lot of the same about the stuff coming out now.. although none of its original ideas anymore..

[@SentriTMC]

@@LannieLord very cool

[@265308]

After watching this I literally ordered two MOSC DICK TRACY's off ebay BC me too been delaying adding this to my PC. Thank GOD they R so cheap! Get that damn Joe plan already U can always resale or trade in the future with all UR Hookups! Get discount...clean it up n get some strings hang that sucker! hahhahaha bad ass!
