Hey Dan, I sculpted that Harry Potter Slime pit for Mattel when I was working at SOTA Toys years ago. The thing about that is that they took out the cool snake that I sculpted that swings around from the back to capture the victims, kinda like the skeleton claw that grabs the guys from the original Horde Slime Pit . The reason for it is that it wouldn't fit in the box with it on or just simply cost reduction.

[@kannonbrixton9771]

A tip: you can watch series at Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching all kinds of movies during the lockdown.

[@isaacgael2523]

@Kannon Brixton Yea, I have been using flixzone for since november myself :)

[@imrankasen5872]

@Kannon Brixton yup, have been using Flixzone for years myself :)

[@renekohen3779]

@Kannon Brixton Yup, I have been watching on flixzone for years myself =)

[@andrejax6983]

@Kannon Brixton definitely, been watching on flixzone for since december myself :D

[@phineasbogg9047]

These videos are awesome. I love how you stay and focus on the obscure KOs. So cool. Congrats on the book!

[@RatedRGameGuy]

I love these videos!! Currently it’s Saturday morning and I used this day to watch your videos and old 80s cartoons just like I used to as a kid. Thanks for your posts 👍🏼

[@ElitePRC]

Those little puffball characters are called Weepuls, and we would get them for doing a certain number of magazine sales in grade school!

[@Mighty-VizioN]

I'm glad you mentioned modern toys being at these retro toy shows. This is why we can't find stuff at the store that we really want. I don't think it's all because NECA and Hasbro doesn't stock the shelves properly. It's because a lot of people in these shows buy up everything and try to resell them at the show for extream mark-ups. KZbin has made collecting toys extremely frustrating. But watching your videos are extremely entertaining.

[@cetialphav3214]

Congrats on the book. I'm happy when good things happen to good people 👍🏻

[@shifty0212]

I love seeing these Kane County adventures!

[@TR4KALLIANCE]

That's so great. It must feel so awesome to be back. Looks like a lot of fun!

Dan - I have in hand copies of my book. Me - you should sign them and make a bundle on them. Everyone - Dan, shut up and take our money! Lol.

[@dwingsworld2581]

Oh those carded Ghostbuster figures were epic! Thanks for sharing Dan!

[@stevescollectibles3460]

Loved the video! Look forward to more videos!!!

[@EnigmaticPenguin]

3:00 I got that blue one as a kid for my birthday in the mid 90's from a well-meaning relative who thought it was a Power Ranger.

[@Portal2099]

It's great to see you guys together again! Like the old PCN days!

I live in Chicago and I was there at that show. Always a good time. Great video. 👏👍😃

[@ghostbustersquickresponseu5159]

Good to see you out in your natural habitat again, Dan. You looked like a Toy Ninja when you had the sword on your back! It was also awesome to see you and Devall together again. Look forward to the haul video if you do one.

[@missstarbuck]

oooh i loved this video so much ! :D. So great to see these vids again. I'm hoping for more ^_^ And hoping to see a haul video as well soon :D

[@dynamosaurusimperious2718]

This sure is one pretty sicko mode toy hunting,and I approve. Also hope y'all have a good day.

[@toytripperv8488]

The prices on the carded vintage toys are insane! The pandemic really blew them up.

[@TheBigBigSean]

One too many stimulus packages.

[@sethious1]

For real, especially the ones with the super yellow bubbles are you kidding me?!

[@residentvania7733]

No Doubt....When a toy costs as much as Groceries in the house. I just have to pass.

Toy shows are THE most fun way to score toys aside from garage sale holy grail finds! LOL

Man I'm seeing all these toy and game shows in my area only AFTER they happen :/ Glad you got some cool stuff!

[@jaymcclintock256]

I received my book yesterday. AMAZING!

Man, I loved that COPS cartoon as a kid.

I loved the Cops figure line. Awesome figures

[@sdevine182]

I have followed you for years, and today I bought your book. I am not a huge He-Man fan but wanted to support you! Maybe one day you can sign it! Keep up the good work

[@NMack-is3nb]

I got the White Sonic Ranger on a family road trip back in the summer of 94. I was pumped for the arrival of the upcoming MMPR White Ranger.

[@brymanstotallyawesomecolle2717]

Awesome video 🔥

[@cinemaemumafrase8522]

congratulations on the launch of the book. unfortunately I can't buy it because I'm from Brazil. the participation of justice cury and its recognition from the community is very cool.

[@Razalonjrt1]

LMAO as soon as I saw that Flocked Battlecat/Cringer I knew you would grab it you never can pass a Flocked cat, Glad to see ppl loving your book and able to sign copies as well. Glad you able to get out and hunt again.

[@UltimateThanos]

12:07 Okay, so that’s Alien Icarus from Ultra Seven, which was the second Ultraman series. That figure was made by Bandai as part of their soft vinyl Ultra Kaiju series.

[@adrianglasgow422]

Hey Pixel Dan, your book just came to me from Amazon and it is great! Worth every single page!

[@davecurrey3531]

Where can I get that book?

Lucky lucky lucky. All the toy shows over here in Santa Clara county California are all shut down. Glad somewhere is allowing toy shows

[@mgmajinvegeta22]

Great insight on how the toy show is I wanted to go to one the other day but was worried there was more new then vintage.

[@ArtDocHound]

Thanks for hanging out with me too.

[@chaos_vision2276]

Man i miss these toy hunt videos!!!

[@thunderrobots1980s]

dang it i didn't know they were doing that now, and dang it i missed a chance to meet you so i can thank you in person for originally telling me about it a few years back , cause ive been going to it every year since i saw the video about it , except for last year and this year so far , but i'll get the next one in October

[@bridazzel7588]

Wow! Nice toys! I hope you do a review on one of them!

[@sethious1]

I would've loved to get mine signed, I mean your the reason I started collecting MOTU classics lol

[@Lofcutus]

Kane county was great this year! I found some great boargames and (a real surprise to me) Outer Space Men. The show was lighter on Adventure People than I had hoped. Kalamazoo Toy show in a couple weeks, more hunting to be had!

[@JoeBeaven]

This video is a mega crossover event.

[@cybermawon7637]

Ha. Magic Mike in the house. Just re-bought the Red One two weeks ago. Oddly enough after having a dream that included seeing a Mashup of him & a concept version of Ram-Man(with the horns).

[@ninjasec]

I really need to get my stuff on display, I have sorted even more of it, and decided will probably only ever sell doubles. Looking forward to more content. Here in Canada things are moving slow, so cons and stuff will be a long way off. Your book looks amazing, I am only a casual MOTU fan compared to my love of TMNT. I have learned a lot bout MOTU form you though.

[@TheRetroWorld]

Somebody said our channels were similar or we looked alike or something 😂 either way awesome video!

[@VictoriousGlory]

wow can't believe you found some sonic rangers. The sonic ranger miniatures are some of my favorite mini figures that I collect

[@CoolCATs2814]

I had that bird Warrior Beast when I was a kid too.

I'm so sad I missed you guys! It was so good to get back to a show but holy cow did prices go up. Usually I find something I want but this year prices were just too high. Maybe next time.

[@SuperSWAGER101]

So much good stuff in this video I wish I could have been there

Reminds me of a "Ben 10: Ultimate Alien" episode where Ben does ordinary stuff like buying smoothies & hanging out with friends than gets swamped bye a bunch of fans wanting his autograph. 😆

That blue figure at 12:07 is from the Godzilla's Gang from Mattel from the late 70s. Pretty sweet line of figures.

[@sofaking7045]

you should try for the "hey I wrote the book on this stuff" discount next time you encounter a pricey vintage carded motu. just saying. looking good dan.

Congrats on the signing and personal selling. I'm actually hoping to find WWEternia figures when I get back to cons because I want them all and only have 8 now.

I pre-order the book ,if you ever drive by the Chicago outskirts let me know, tour of my collection and dinner on me

Man, stuff's getting pricey. Just when I'm trying to regain some of my childhood figures too. Luckily I'm in no rush, so hopefully with some timing and luck I can get what I want. :P

[@ronnielane8985]

How do you SEE those Geoffrey pens, and then focus on the Power Ranger bootlegs? Would kill for one of those.

[@pce1985]

@Pixel Dan it’s great that you went to a Toy Show and got He-Man memorabilia toys, books and all. And Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles memorabilia and toys. But have you not noticed that there’s the Power Rangers memorabilia toys and stuff like that? Just a thought and a friendly suggestion.

[@pixelatedchidad]

Went Sunday (general public) and picked up nothing but loose vintage figs.

[@JustPlayTheGame76]

I dont feel safe enough to go to any cons this year, it does feel safer than last year but still ... Anyway, thanks for doing this. I laughed out loud when you revealed what he was looking at. New Kids on the Block. Too funny. 5:07 Your looking at Turtles and I am looking at the Millennium Falcon and Snow Speeder past your arm. I already have them, but I wouldnt mind getting more. Oh hey. They had two B-Wings. Wonder what they wanted for those. Also a Vintage Tie Interceptor and Vader's Tie Fighter. Very cool. You dont see those often. Oh, even got the troop transport. Nice. 14:50 Is that an Vintage Star Wars electronic Han Solo pistol in the back? Very cool. 15:45 Oh, a StarGate figure. Very cool 16:07 Is that a Return of the Jedi Board Game? I have never seen that before. Interesting. Wow, 185$ Out of my price range, for sure. 17:26 Oh I just got the full set of the Power Lords comic book. lol 17:47 Cool, a boxed Cobra H.I.S.S. how much are they asking for that? 17:56 OH! I would LOVE those Captain Power jets. 18:15 Have they made a fully articulated Battle Cat? Thats what I wanted as a kid. 21:07 Wow. Bionic Six figures. Thats something I would not have expected to see. 21:22 Oh, I know that thing! I know that! Thats a Cobra Momba. The only thing cooler than the Cobra Raven. 21:43 Is that a Japanese Transformer or the robot that Transformers CAME from? 22:00 Wow. That poor Chun-Li. What did they do to her? lol Hey thanks for letting me tag along with you. It had been a long time since I went to a con and this felt like I went to one. Thanks for everything.
