Join me on a journey to reacquire all the vintage toys from my childhood... and perhaps a few modern ones too.
If you can't visit a store without checking out the toy aisle, or have always wished that you still owned the toys of your childhood, then you're just like me. Born in the mid '80s, I've at some point owned and loved all the big toys from that era through to modern toys. I've also handed down or sold on a bunch of them and regretted it. Sound familiar?
NOW, I'm on a quest to get my lifelong collection back in order... and this time it's for good!
Haha, I’ve always thought where that hairy stuff came from. I know they have been stored/copped a beating and all of that but I always kept mine clean. Love the vehicles mate 👍🏿
Hey I want my Marshmellow back NOW.😂😂 Only joking dude. Just do you dude. Will sub to your other channel too. Plus although I'm nearly in my 50s I do enjoy some Pokémon stuff. So its a win win🤜💥🤛 I was gonna start a new channel for my Zx Spectrum stuff but it makes sense to keep all my toy stuff and retro games all in one place. 💥💥💥💥💥💥
Yeah think it was silly to split it to start with. If people don’t want to watch they can always skip a vid. I think I was too concerned with upsetting people who probably didn’t care enough to ever be upset by switching up the content on the original channel. But hey, it led me to you guys! Appreciate the support and you can want all you like, the Marshmallow is MINE NOW! 😂😂😂
@@ToysNotTrash I guess it's good, you've probably picked up quite a few subs. You'll probably find that the vintage toy community will start conversations with the Pokémon community. Which is a plus 👍
Dude!!!! No explanations or apologies necessary!!! I like a lot of others know how time consuming and how huge of a commitment it is running a channel, let alone two channels! My channel was only ever meant to be Star Wars content, (look at my branding) I was gonna do a separate Channel for MASK, Transformers, etc, then someone said just do it all on the channel you have, and that they’ll still watch! 😃🙏🏻👍 Dude I appreciate and respect you putting out an explanation, but absolutely no need as far as I’m concerned. I sent you the greyskull as a gift to help a new tuber and now friend, no other reason. Now that’s out the way, I’ll see you on Banproof, off to sub right now! 😃
Thank you! I only felt right to explain here rather than just switch back to the other channel and everyone wonder where I disappeared to. It felt like the right thing to do when I started this but now I’m looking at it differently and I’m glad everyone understands and seems to be willing to come along for the ride! 😃
May have made one or two videos in the past! 😂 Actually just checked on my old, old, old, old channel and my first ever RU-vid upload was 11 years ago!!! 😱
Completely understandable Bobby. I also have two RU-vid channels and its a huge commitment to keep them both active and enjoyable. It sounds like you're making the right decision. I'm glad to know I can still enjoy your content on Banproof. I just subscribed and I'm looking forward to watching.
It’s a lot, and just seemed a waste to ditch something I’d spent so much time building rather than just take a turn in a different direction. I’m glad you think it’s the right choice and I look forward to seeing you there. Thank you!
Hey Bobby! Subscribed to Banproof - it's awesome you have another really successful channel, had no idea, although your videos here straight out of the blocks were of high quality 👍 Completely understand your decision - and nothing wrong trying out new things 🤘
Thank you!!! I’m glad the immediate response isn’t that I’m crazy! 😂 Look forward to seeing you over there in the comments, it’s a good community we’ve got over there! 🤘
Yeah Bobbie! Bo Katan is in the TVC Hall of Fame! Phenomenal Figure! I love mine, so much fun to display and review. I also recommend the Mythrol. Great Job, I Always Enjoy Your Videos!
Heeeeey great to see you back Bobbie, I agree this is an exceptional figure, great sculpt, and the helmet looks great. Brilliant to see you back my friend 👍
Hi Bobby! Looking Good Bro! Great to have you back! I love Episode One, but I don’t have this set. It’s So Fun!!! Thanks for showing it off for us to enjoy. Nice Video!!! 🤓👍👍
Thanks for the comment mate. I’m doing ok, just been struggling with a lifelong medical condition I have and between still trying to work and living day to day just haven’t been able to muster up the energy to record. I’m ok though and will be back soon! 😊
Haha nice one Bobby, love the tearing off the cardbacks, TVC you’ll get away with, you try doing a video doing that to original vintage carded figures and see how that goes 😂😂😂😂😂😲😲😲😲😲 And those damn dogs!!! Last week I had to reshoot a section because the bloody ice cream man decided to go by my house! 😂😂 first world problems eh lol. Enjoyed it man
Absolutely man! I always wanted it and never had it either!!! I will get one, though!!! Even if it’s 30 years later now! 😂 Thanks for stopping by, glad you enjoyed the video!
Haha! Sorry bud, it was just never a thing that I ever really came across when I was younger. I never had any, and don’t remember any of my friends having them., so they’re just chunks of plastic to me with no nostalgia attached to them whatsoever! 😂
Well Done Bobby!! I really enjoy reviewing TVC figures on my channel. Great Job! You’re a natural and I hope you do more. I’ll definitely check them out if you do. Cheers
Sweet birthday gifts man! Is there anyone that doesn’t love thundercats!!!! Great video Bobby, and happy birthday 👍🎂 I could swear you were gonna get a pizza in the face to lol
Nice vid, are those clearance stickers easy to peel off the card? Also I wish Smyth's stocked the WWE Ultimate line, the new Kane figure looks amazing.
I’ll be honest, I haven’t tried peeling them yet. I’m an opener so it’s not something I thought about too much. I’ll try it when I get around to the vids of opening them. They have definitely stocked some Ultimates in the past because I remember them having Rousey Ultimate! Would be amazing if they got that awesome Kane, dunno what the chances are though! 😩
Just thought I’d update as I just opened the clearance ones from Smyth’s in my new video and tried peeling the stickers and they came of real easy with no residue at all! 😀
Happy Birthday Bobby! Great Birthday Gifts! Your Girlfriend is definitely the Coolest! TMNT, Star Wars, and Thundercats! It doesn’t get much better than that! I found that Pizza Thrower at one of the Toy Shows on my channel. It’s Super Cool 😎 👍
Nice pickups. I hate that you have toy stores still and I do not. Also, how the smeg do you have Timmy Ho's and I don't? On a clear day, I can see Canada from the lakeshore but I still have to drive an hour to get it. Canada, get with it!
I don’t know how, but I’m not complaining the donuts and coffee were fantastic!!! Are you in US? Cos you might not have toy stores where you are but us in the U.K. are always jealous of the giant toy sections the US guys have in Walmart etc!
Funny, my localy smyths has had loads of these figures hanging around at £15 each - literally dozens of both leias. Having seen this I checked online and they are now cleared out. I strongly suspect one or two scalpers have gone in and bought the lot.
Ah that sucks dude, I got lucky to at least get a couple of the bargains. Def worth keeping an eye on their site though, they’re always reducing older waves and if not priced at the store as per the site they’ll still scan through at the cheaper price!
Hello mate just discorved your channel *Subscribed* , always good to see new UK content creators in this space! Where abouts you based? Your Smyths is better then mine lol
Haha, I'm in Ipswich. I thought ours was one of the worst after visiting a few other bigger ones! 😂 Surprised I've not come across your channel before, will dive into your video library when I get a chance for sure!
@@ToysNotTrash to be fair if your not into Legends it makes sense but like yourself I like to dabble into lots of different lines I love, you should check out a live stream I do then weekly! 👌🏻 ...will be keeping an eye on your adventures for sure, the presentation of the few videos I watch was really nice & professional for such a new channel, bravo my friend I know that stuff takes time 👏🏻👏🏻
Wow Bobby! Your first Toy Hunt Rocked! I love your Lamb of God shirt. Great Pickups, Awesome Deals! I’m a huge Episode One fan too. I feature a lot of Phantom Menace stuff on my channel. Stay strong, there’s a lot of us out there. BTW, your intro was brilliant. Your turning into a RU-vid video master!
Great Figure, RAD Review! I always enjoy you videos Bobby, you’ve got a really good style! Your cinder block wall with the door and garage make a fantastic backdrop for your toys! Did you make it? Keep up the great work, I’ve been on board since the 1st video 😎👍
Thank you, appreciate the support always! I did make the backdrop myself from XPS foam, it doesn't quite suit the MOTU figures as much, though (I originally made it as a backstage area for Wrestling Figures). I've also made a smaller Star Wars and a red brick backdrop for photography that you may have seen on my Instagram or Twitter. I'm thinking of making more big ones for the videos so that I can tailor it to different types of figure, but it's very time-consuming and for now I want to just focus on making the best videos I can. ✌
Thank you, that’s really nice to hear. It’s a lot of extra work but it’s nice to know it’s been noticed. I’m still learning but only plan to improve over time! And thank for the early birthday wishes! ✌️
