TSOT Series 3 Episode 6 - All the Cool Stuff and Metropolis Vintage Toys feat Action Force GI Joe

[@attract_mode_]

Wow, think this was one of your best episodes, 2 absolutely amazing shops!

[@leicestervintagetoyshop]

@@attract_mode_ thanks for watching!

[@gazev9691]

These are not the toys you’re looking for was a very good impression! Another amazing episode - the quality of the production on this series is amazing. Continuing my weekly shout for a tour of Jo”s collection in a future episode! Amazing work all 👏👏👏👏

[@SpoonJarFilms]

I’m sure it will happen (it’s cheap to make he only lives down the road 😂) Thanks for watching.

[@Wunjo-Wunjo]

Here's a female that enjoys the show, and very much appreciates the girl toys that you film. I was more of an Action Man, weird horror based things, and Dinky toys fan as a child, but now I very much like all the girl toys. I have a few Rainbow Brite Sprites, Cabbage Patch Doll, and Koosas, plus a couple of Mr. Tayto toys from Ireland. I love the show, it's superb. xx

[@SpoonJarFilms]

Thankyou that’s great to hear 👍

Loved watching this. Feel very fortunate to have Metropolis just down the road from us. My vintage toy knowledge is pretty poor if I’m honest but Chris is one of those guys that is happy to share his knowledge and will always take time to chat. He’s got an amazing collection.

[@SpoonJarFilms]

Yeah Chris is a good ‘un!

[@stevejones4442]

Chris is such a lovely bloke, he sold me a vintage Six Million Dollar Man, took me up to his second shop and let me delve into a box of red tracksuits to pick out the best one for my figure, top, top fella. Loved this series chaps, always an eye opener on what you found and a great end to the year!

This is the only programme where the camera man is as big a star as the presenters. Matt is so witty with such a lovely way about him-he would be a great friend. Happy New Year Matt.

[@SpoonJarFilms]

Thanks Ben! You might enjoy the last episode then as we drop into the edit suite and see Matt’s little collection.

It is the only fact I have, what were the odds I got to share it with everyone? :)

[@lestat1uk]

It is good to hear Tomland get a mention, i have a handful of the glow in the dark starroid raiders. Loved them to bits. When i was a kid my mum would work in the arcades (in the 70s) on the shooting range and one of the toys were these glow in the dark Starroid Raiders (yes i did used to nick them and take them home with me and i still have them to this day)

[@automatticcomics]

@@SpoonJarFilms weird side fact, I was part of team that designed a series of Duracell flashlights back in the early 2000's, which then later involved flying out to Connecticut for a one hour meeting, then pretty much getting on a plane and flying back. The only good part of the story was picking up the black Clone Pilot variant from Revenge Of The Sith at the airport, which was something I had not seen before.

[@SpoonJarFilms]

@@AllTheCoolStuff Wow, didn't know you had a design background too Dave although that is going to reignite the "torch" Vs "Flashlight" debate with me and Billy!

I love the show love the toys the education ........I hate the underlying factor of greed to get the items as cheap as possible to just male money off its disgusting and so cringe to watch

[@leicestervintagetoyshop]

@@waynedavidson2321 firstly creating toy shop on tour costs a fortune to make. Every series runs at a huge deficit for us. It’s a show for entertainment purposes. Re buying items for less to sell them for more, that’s how business works. I want to provide a living for my family. If you knew anything about how my shop works you’d know how much we do for others in order to help them. When I’m working 7 days a week to make a living this kind of comment does make me wonder why we bother.

[@billygalaxytoys]

LOL! You must be pretty upset every single time you go to a restaurant, buy groceries, pay a utility bill, seek medical care, watch a film, or any other thing that involves the exchange of funds. This is how society works, it is what humans and a few other creatures do. Hope you continue loving the show and the toys!
