TOY HUNTING with Pixel Dan at Retropalooza 2019

[@joshua2814]

I totally agree with Dan about the window shopping. I just started going toy-focused cons, but even if I don't have much many to spend at one, it's still fun to see some of this stuff for the first time.

[@DerekDomino71]

Very cool. I love looking at all this stuff and since I can't be there, these videos are the next best thing.

[@sirs_3703]

My dad trash picked an old projector with a bunch of film, about a year ago we were going through it and discovered the film was old family videos from the 60s when they were at a Disney thing I think in New York. It’s crazy, it shows the guy and his family, Disney characters greeting them and doing a whole bunch of stuff. It’s really cool.

[@Pixel-dan]

Wow, that is really cool!

[@jonathanmiller3622]

I love Retropalooza! It' always the perfect mix of retro video games and vintage action figures in my opinion.

[@Pixel-dan]

One of my favorite shows each year, for sure!

[@ZapCristal]

It was so much fun seeing you again. Hope to meet up in any future cons. :)

[@eiadtarabulsi]

The Nintendo Playchoice, PS2 light up store display, Vectrex and Commodore 64 are awesome for sure. As a huge Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fan myself, it's unfortunate that you missed out on buying the Rocksteady action figure. It's great seeing so many amazing toys and video games even though I couldn't be there in person. Otherwise, thanks as always Pixel Dan. I really appreciate it!

[@Lana_Del_SugarRay]

Props to Dan for waiting until the day of the show to try and grab that giant Rocksteady, like everyone else. It would have been real easy to use his Pixel Dan fame and snag it beforehand.

[@SecretOfMonkeyIsland784]

Yep but look how being honourable totally backfired on him. If id seen something i wanted i would have run to that stall first and not taken my time with picking up a already purchased order first costing him on the rare item.

[@Pixel-dan]

@@SecretOfMonkeyIsland784 Dudes. Let's also keep in mind that I have a table as a guest of the show. So I actually had to spend a portion of the early part of my day at my table fulfilling obligations and chatting with viewers. I certainly didn't waste my time. If it costs me a toy, it costs me a toy. I've got a job to do first. :-)

[@SecretOfMonkeyIsland784]

@@Pixel-dan Fair play, could you not have sent a friend out to pick it up for you in your absense?. Im just annoyed for you that you missed out :( .

[@cronocomics]

I would never had imagined there was a series of Betamax MOTU casette series, I remember my family owning one when I was a kid but I would not have dreamed with having the chance to see MOTU episodes any time I wanted besides the daily episode aired at 5 p.m. every day in my country.

[@HeartandSoulless]

NotAnotherRetroChannel was the one who bought that rocksteady

[@Pixel-dan]

So I've heard! Lol

[@PEST__]

Yup I can 2nd that..dan next time you see NARC you should power bomb him thru a table lol

[@jasonparker8232]

I just put a comment on NARC's video. That was so funny! I knew as soon as I saw it on this video who picked it up.

[@GMORBID]

I was just about say that as well lol , keep up the good work dan

[@victorbarrera5833]

which rocksteady is that? hunting for it lol

[@flurp7904]

Thanks for the tour! I went recently in a kind of retro market like this in France. It was very fun to see old toys and video games !

[@shane3674]

It’s always awesome being able to see it from your perspective. I always have a blast here!

[@SimpleManGuitars1973]

I'm a DVC member and it's cool to know that you also are a big Disney fan as well. We have tons in common. I don't know if that's a good thing or not. LOL!

[@Pixel-dan]

Awesome! Yeah, we're a big Disney Parks family here. We do Disneyland the most, because I'm out in California a lot for various shows. So we always try to extend trips a few days just to hit the Parks. :-) We're hoping to plan a big trip to WDW with the family in the next few years. I haven't been in about a decade, so much has changed. But all I watch on YT these days are Disney Parks vids. Heh. I'm a bit obsessed.

[@SimpleManGuitars1973]

@@Pixel-dan Yeah I go 3 times a year and even from trip to trip there are tons of changes and always new things to look forward to experiencing. If it has been over a decade for you it will seem like a whole new world. See what I did there? LOL!

[@AFanofThings1]

Man, the booth with the Rocksteady has a couple MegaMan figures I need. Wish I could've gone!

[@WerewolfLydia]

So cool! I'm always looking forward to these retropalooza vids, it's so much fun just looking at all the stuff. Wish we had something like this organized here too...

[@drozwalker9]

The Commodore C64 is an awesome blast from the past. 5 and quarter inch floppy disk are digital fossils.

[@jamesrodriguez3667]

Oof! That Rocksteady part was heartbreaking! Better luck next time Dan!!!

[@jamezjiggy4845]

Seen it post on Twitter asking what series on videos are out favs.Always love all ur content and I don't even collect toys.Toy hunting is #1!

[@lovesaturdaymornings]

Great video dan,Don't worry a rock steady will come your way one day

[@EdsRetroGeekOut]

fun to see you point out stuff I totally missed :'D I did pick up the triceramike cuz I never see it and my buddy NARC (Not Another Retro Channel) got the rocksteady. Those vhs and betamax tapes are sweet dude!

[@Pixel-dan]

Glad you got TriceraMike! That's a good get! Tell Narc to give me my Rocksteady! Lol

[@missstarbuck]

I always love these video's so much ! :D .

[@J_Lee712]

Great coverage. I haven't watched as subbed to N.A.R.C. too but think spotted that Rocksteady in his thumbnail.

[@raffaellovinci9729]

Toy Hunting! 🤩 Thank you Pixel Dan 😁👍

[@NARC.1]

Dan! I will totally trade you my Rocksteady for your Bebop! 😂😂 it was great talking with you dude! Hope to see you at Toy Fair, take care 🤘

[@Pixel-dan]

No deal! Haha!! It was great talking to you too man! If it wasnt me I'm glad it was you that got him!

[@Kyru82]

I still remember getting Seargent Bananas from Children's Palace bak in the day. Such a cool figure, plus anything with a sidekick is an automatic win.

[@Pixel-dan]

For sure! The sidekick figures are the best!

[@lewismatthewj]

I loved Children's Palace and Toy Liquidators. That's probably where I got all my toys as a kid, which explained why I had so many, because I got them so cheap.

[@bobjordan1419]

Cool vid. I got the Disneyland lightshow on vhs

[@DanniDolphin]

Fun video as always. I love the TMNT stuff.

[@martin_E79]

Thanks for this upload. Always fun to see 👍

[@Robbie9595]

This is great, its like I went to a Toy show today.

[@chingaquedito]

I love u channel man , congratulations for all...

[@grecofabulous]

I was there with NARC when he bought it. He just kept saying how he doesn't even like TMNT followed by a lot of maniacal laughing. It was very unsettling.... FYI I believe it sold for $25, not sure if that helps you sleep or will keep you up at night ;)

[@Pixel-dan]

IM GOING TO BREAK HIM!!!!

[@nightwarper1760]

Dear Pixel Dan, I have watched you for some time now. I don’t know if you will see this but I hope you do. I have always loved your videos sense I first saw the 2012 tmnt ooz video. I am about a decade or two younger then most of your fans, instead of being an 80s or 90s kid I’m actually a 2000s kid. One of my favorite toy lines as a kid was Imaginext DC, I was cleaning out my closet and found my old bat cave and archam Asylum and tons of memories came flooding back, starting from my first bat mobile to whatever I have now. I was hoping you could do a Toysplosian on either Imaginext or specifically the DC part of it. Thanks to you I have learned many things about toys. I may be a teen, but I will always be a small child at heart.

[@Pixel-dan]

Imaginext would honestly be a great topic for Toysplosion! It's always possible!

[@FatherAxeKeeper]

great video Dan

[@Cautious_Gamer]

I would lose my mind if I could find a Werewolf Wolverine figure.

[@sebastianm.6854]

Hi Dan, awesome channel. I like to watch for a while now. Do you know by any chance if the motu toy guide you have participated in will be shipped world wide? Keep up the good work you do.

[@Pixel-dan]

I'm not entirely sure just yet. Dark Horse is distributing. I'll do my best to find out asap!

[@sebastianm.6854]

Pixel Dan Thanks for the reply. When I was young it was always a bummer that you guys in the US got all the awesome series while we in Germany have not. I am born 82 and learned later that there is a collectible value, passion and money behind all that. Now living in Canada the choice of action figures is better but the prices are just crazy sometimes.

[@Blackedoutewoks]

Cool video! Commodore 64 was great 😎

[@gmx5051]

You rock Dan!!

[@raulbenitezsaucedo6410]

@@Pixel-dan the production quality of your videos has been ever improving, really dig the toy hunting/convention videos. Many thanks for sharing!

[@DRNicholasJones]

How many years have you collected ? & how do you decide if you open something if it’s vintage ? Certain things i buy I will leave moc .

[@Pixel-dan]

I open almost everything. But MOTU and TMNT are my primary collections, and I do like to collect MOC for those two lines as long as I feel it's a price I'm ok with paying.

[@DRNicholasJones]

Pixel Dan I like to keep lines like Hook , Water World & food fighters on moc too . Love the box art . Thank you for replying love the videos fan of many years .

[@Pixel-dan]

@@DRNicholasJones I definitely will do that with some things where I love the box art. And Food Fighters is one of my all-time favorite lines, so I do have almost every figure carded plus loose for that line. :-)
