Greetings from another RAF veteran. I’m recovering from hand surgery, and watching your videos is helping me overcome boredom whilst I am limited in what I can do.
As soon as you read "jambalaya" I knew where he was from... He's from the state of Louisiana. Jambalaya is a rice based dish with anything/everything but the kitchen sink tossed in! Good stuff! Funny how he sent you models of an outhouse or portable dunny. ;)
Glad that you like the challenge coins and that they arrived unscathed :-) I went to the 75th D-Day anniversary with a friend for a sort of road trip a few weeks after you made the D-day special video and when I saw this one at Omaha, I just had to get it. One of the best holidays I had over the last years, many museums, a lot to see and learn (we are both history, particularly WWI and WWII enthusiasts - we also made a similar trip to the Verdun WWII battleground). The other one says Praha - Prague in Czech (its capital city) and the 60 is for the 60th anniversary of its liberation. As I wrote in the letter, it was sort of a small gift for those, who participated on that event.
Thank you so much Robert, I really appreciate you taking the time to send me these objects of remembrance. They are certainly going to be front and centre of my next challenge coin framed set! - Wish you well, Marty!
Anthony Taylor hearing the three of them laughing had me laughing. Then my stupid ass reminded it and watch it again. It was just as stupid funny the second time. 😂
You are correct, the Kubelwagen is the German equivalent to the US Jeep of WWII vintage. A modified version of the Kubelwagen; designated the Volkwagen 181 or 182, depending on the placement of the steering wheel; was produced in the 1970s for the West German army and was marketed to the public as the Kurierwagen in Germany, the Trekker in the UK, the Thing in the US, the Camat in Indonesia, the Pescaccia in Italy and the Safari in Mexico.
Looking forward to see Marty paint some in the hire companies logos etc , even better drill one out and make the internals for it. Make some decals, m/f joint for one , koala for the other.
Yay! You got the world map, and you wondered if you'd be able to use all those magnetic clamps? :-) I want to mail something through Antarctica so I can get a whole area to myself on the map! Thank you so much for sharing your hobby with us. A happy hour in rough week.
Thanks for the laughter, Marty! I caught your Fawlty Towers reference ("I mentioned it ONCE, but I THINK I got away with it!" ("Don't mention THE WAR!")
OMG I'm dying @13:02 "I can do this". Whomever doesn't like unboxing videos hasn't seen moments like this. Quite literally crying and trying not to LOL in my cubicle. Thank you Marty!
I like the unboxing videos too. I think I learn more than you do when you encounter something new or unusual. Please don’t stop making them. And it’s been shown scientifically that laughter is indeed contagious. Couldn’t stop smiling while watching this one.
The little white blocks are HO scale "Porta-Potties", i.e. portable toilets for use at construction sites, faires, concerts, and other gatherings. They're normally a light blue here in the US. Those do look authentic, down to the vent stack on top. Cheers!
I enjoy the unboxing vids. I like seeing all the cars I remember and those I have never heard of. Also I think they have become an important part of what you do as it shows the inspiration you have given to other modellers and to show appreciation to those who donate to you. Keep em' going.
If I understood what you read, those resin items are Port-a-cans. That is, they are portable toilet stalls (or out-houses) as can be found on worksites and at many public events where there would otherwise be no public restrooms. In England, they'd be known as Port-a-loos. The small pip on the top is a vent stack and the raised panel on the front is the door.
Your laugh is infectious! I felt a bit of a fool sitting here alone and laughing aloud, but heck! I enjoyed every minute. Thank you, and I am glad that you are not splitting off the unboxing videos - they are part and parcel of your channel.
All tracks, tank,bulldozer or whatever would pop off while you were pushing them across the floor even right out of the box. As a kid i wanted the tracks to move while i was driving, the other choice was hold the toy slightly off the floor so they didnt touch.
Goodday mate! thank you for another great video. I for one am glad you chose this path for your channel as i see many tubbers bending there's and saying sorry for everything. Like our fast food service here in the states. I enjoy that you sir take time to teach us and laugh along. thank you crew.
Another great video! Mid-week unboxing, weekends restoration works fine with me. Can't wait for your 100,000th subscriber. Do what you please, but I strongly urge you to stay 1953-1969 Lesney only. Any size or style, King Size, Major Pack, Models of Yesteryear included, but NO Tootsietoy or Hotwheels, please!! Offer them to specialty collectors. Thank you. Also, I ordered what I thought was a 1950's #2 Muir Hill Dumper and received the cast driver only. Silly me. I'm sending him on to you since I don't need such a specialty item. Still looking for a mint with box #2. Best wishes always.
Hi Mate. Your laughter was so catching...... I'm still carrying on 😂😂😂 And about the second channel... I agree with you. Keep it all "beneath one roof" 👍 Thanks for brighten up my week, while I'm looking forward to saturday evening and a new makeover. Greetings from the "hot" northsea-shore (it's about 35 C here or to say it in australian: "Time to pull the jumper off "😉😁😁😁) 👍👍👍😉😁 P.S. "Praha" means Prague 😉
Once again Marty another great unboxing video!! I love them. I love watching you opening your presents its like Christmas. Keep up the good work. Until then take care and I'll see you again. BYE bye.
I like the unboxing vids, as I like Christmas and like to see what is in the box. So many variations of cars. Keep up the good work Marty. Look forward to the weekend video.
Another great video. The security truck had a box storage piece on the back with a three plastic dial combination built into the door to lock it. The code is embossed on the underside. It came with a trolley of gold and a guard as well. I owned one in the early 1980s
Fantastic once again. "I can do this","Iam having a moment", classic. Poor Stan's letter, consolation on it is I think its provided the best laugh up to now. Its right about laughter been contagious. Keep up the good work. Would love to see the train done up.
Hi Marty if you see this I want to say I enjoy your videos and they are relaxing to watch . Btw tootsie made some model that you are not aware of , they make some planes , cars and a ton of train engines like steam engines and diesel locomotive . I should know because I got a bag of them from my father , btw I would be careful around some of the edges of the tootsie model because they tend to break if bent out of place . Anyways I hope this info was helpful and I can't wait to see your next video
Love the sign XYZ days without an accident.....lol! 😊 And don't feel bad about the unboxing videos, yeah, I skip through them now after a while, but its your channel, great fans following you so makes sense to keep it all here on one channel... you're a RU-vid treasure now mate.
Marty the unboxing videos are an education and a bonus we used to have Saturdays and now we've got mid week as well to me that's as good as it gets we see what you got and we see what you do keep it up mate
Aka Johnny on the Spot, Shi* House, Port-a-potty, Pisser, Shi**er, Crapper There are several names for them. In the summer they are horrid. Hot and smelly and full of flies. 🤬
I love the mailbag videos, we get a chance to see what all the generous people from around the world have sent you. As far as I'm concerned, the longer the video, the better :)
Thanks for the gut busting laughs Marty. This is one of your best videos. How can anybody not like your unboxings they are great Love seeing what people from around the world send you. Those cars that have the strange body's are sold at dollar stores everywhere they come in packs of 10 or 20 for a dollar We call them throw away toys
We are so proud of your decision to stay with one channel. We love all your antics. That shirt just kills me, I always wondered who was driving those cars. Lets see a shot of that map some time with pins locating all your contributors. We haven't laughed that much at a video for some time. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Marty and family....I haven’t laughed so much in years when you cut the letter up....love these unboxing vids...anyone that doesn’t watch them is missing out :)
Oh my god..... im sure the days without an accident sign will come in handy with you brandishing that knife 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 Best unboxing laugh upto now mate 🤘 Regards funky
Marty hi, such a great entertaining video, loved it, "the security truck" I had one similar, mine had a Safe like door on rear of the truck and locked with the 3 digit code the code is printed on the bottom of the truck you just held, Be fantastic to see this like new again, if its similar to the one I remember Love your films thank you.
The Noddy with Big Ears wagon was part of a train set first made in 1959 by Morestone (Budgie) Diecast Toys. The set consisted of a yellow coloured train with Noddy as the driver and the wagon in which Big Ears should sit.
And Oh Yes But So much Fun And Laughter!!! Marty Out Of All You Toy Car Guys You Always Every Time Have The Most Amazing Stock Sent To You And For Me You Putting Out Another Unboxing Video Esp The Bigger Boxes This Brings Back All Those Happy Memories When You Unearth A Rare Beauty Or More In Excellent Condition!!!

Lol..I loved it when you lost the plot and couldnt stop laughing..I ended with tears running down my cheeks and my stomach hurting I was laughing that much at you...glad you left it in the clip. look forward to your next unboxing video too.
The tiny orange and green cars in the last box could be made by Barclay. Came with a truck and flat bed car trailer. Glad you are keeping makeovers and unboxing all on one channel.
Marty: this will be a quick video....38 minutes later. 😂😂 love all the videos. I started picking MATCHBOX KING SIZE NOW because of your videos. Watching all the restorations got me wanting to collect these.
The stainless steel tool is used for opening sealed electrical components, you can use it to separate car parts ie: body from chassis, instead of using a screw driver.
