Do people not understand that you have to pay rent, utilities, insurance and your employees? If you paid what stuff was "worth" you would be out of business before you started.

Started collecting when I turned 50 last year amd I don't care what anyone thinks about it I had a really shitty childhood and never got anything amd now I've fixing to retire early from a great career this is what I'm doing with my retirement,that's why I love channels like this to see that all this cool stuff is still out there.
Ryan, that annoying guy, did you not see how people posted his identity in the previous video he was in? He was prosecuted for fraud when buying toys, something to do with scanning barcodes for lower valued items.
That's a beautiful Transformers collection. Thanks for sharing. And yeah, Japan reissued G1 Megatron a few times. I had a chance to buy the American original or Japanese reissue back in the early 2000s, and since they were both worth a $100, I bought the original. The Japanese reissue was tempting though, since it had the firing pellets, and the SWORD. 😄
トランスフォーマー！！ Told ya! Japanese Megatron has a sword! 😂 Fun fact, in Japan, Toys r us never went out of business, they just down graded a bit. Also about 20 years ago, Japanese toysrus had the best clearance deals! I picked up the Toysrus Exclusive Cybertron Translucent Convoy (prime) with the Sonic Bomber aka "Sonic Convoy" for a mere 1000 yen. I got 4 of them and my friend got 5 of them. We compromised. Sadly those golden days of clearance are no more. Great Video Man! Keep 'em comin! 😂
Love these videos, and extra big ups for the They Live shirt (WATCH TV 📺) • Hope to visit y’all sometime • Salutations from Amsterdam ✌🏼 PS: The Transformers G1 Takara Book Collection (Around 13:57 Ryan pulls out the mini’s set and the Megatron) was and remains one of the best series of G1 TF reissues.
I'm sure you will have no problem selling a lot of those Japanese transformers. Then you'll have to put those wrestling figures back in that case. ;-) At 20:20, that's the dark version of Unicron, not primus. The Japanese Primus had the number 00 on the box. The package art is amazing on that. It had all the Primes featured on the back of the box.
Nice to see a Dan crossover. As a collector for personal reasons, I've seen such a huge shift in the last decade - but particularly since the Pandemic. Pricing expectation has gone through the roof, while the market really doesn't seem to have shifted all that much. And it seems a lot of the pricing is not being set by the stores, or the collectors themselves, but by people who have seen some kind of flip channel or other, realise they have an obscure piece in their loft, and are hoping someone somewhere will just throw down the cash. Seeing your shop do it the cost and balance way is much more reasonable and realistic way of viewing and valuing pieces.
All of those G1 Transformer issues that you have right there that have a number from Takara were only able to be gotten from Japan/China they weren't sold by American retailers unless otherwise imported at the time by the American Retailer. Specifically because of getting Megatron in a weapon like that. He came with and without the orange cap. Also also have some respect for Rampage he knows he's just a repaint of heavy metal, (he has feeling too) and is listed as a different character with a slightly different repaint😅😂😂😂😂😂.....
Core memory unlocked! I had that micromaster Ironworks set as a kid(17:20). Pretty sure i haven't thought of it since i a few years after having it. crazy how memory works.
Toy MOTHER FUCKIN' federation!!! You guys are a huge help for me, I'm on my 24th day in a row working, and I am so stoked that I can watch you guys now that I'm off work for today!!!!
The prices some of this stuff goes for.... and how many of them all that I pushed around on pegs on store shelves back in the 80's and early 90's... is both incredible and sad at the same time, lol!
Lots of great Japanese Transformers! Galaxy Force and Car Robots are favorites of mine. Since you guys have those cabinets dedicated to toylines, it'd look super cool if you had logos on the cabinets...having a system where you could exchange out the logos when you change cabinets would be neat, too.
The Japanese Buildron says Toys R Us exclusive. I was trying to read the receipt but it wasn't close enough. I was able to see that he paid 7268 yen in cash.
