This giveaway is STILL ACTIVE! We just moved (again) so I am going to part with more Kidrobots. Just comment and maybe I'll send one your way.

Been a fan of Kidrobot since 2007! Crazy how the brand has changed since then..I’m not a fan of all their license brand toys, but it seems to be bringing in good revenue for KR. Nice vid!

@JosiahIsWrite 5 лет назад

Thank you! The brand really has changed, the big change came when NECA purchased them, but they are still doing what made them cool in the first place.

I love Penny's squeal during the Megaman hair segment!

THE MEGAMAN ONES ARE SO SWEET! I started collecting Funko Pop! figures recently and I’ve just been really excited about starting a collection of any kind. So today I stumbled upon these Kidrobot figures and OMG this is so crazy! You’re the first video I watched to get an idea of the quality and the background. Will def subscribe! Thanks

@JosiahIsWrite 6 лет назад

Thank you! I like the Kidrobots over the Pops just because I can fit more on my shelves. I did another video sort of general tour of the shelves, so check that out. When I first put them in, it was about a 3rd of what's there now, but then it I kept adding and adding.

In the UK, Kidrobot is very difficult to get hold of right now. Wasn't always like that! I started collecting around 2009-ish with my first figure being Kenny from South Park. There were a couple of stores in my area that had loads of KR merch available (check out my first ever video if you're interested), but they just don't stock it anymore. Found a Canadian retailer selling stuff for very reasonable prices, which is where I've been getting my vinyl crack fix after a 3 year hiatus from collecting KR. Ordered the 7" Jled Pelican't and 2 blind boxes. Your video really elevates the excitement of collecting these figures, espeially in blind boxes. Left a like :)

@JosiahIsWrite 5 лет назад

Thanks! I appreciate the insight in collecting in the UK. Even as I prepped this video I realized it's much easier to collect here in Southern California than back where my family lives in Pennsylvania, so I can only imagine how things go internationally. A few other RU-vidrs from Australia have also shared how it's a challenge to find them. I'll be sure to check out the video, thanks again!

Kidrobot is awesome, I'm from Vermont so not many places carry a good selection, they have awesome customer service, I got a broken figure and they sent me another blind box without question. They also gave me some free yummy world sweet treat boxes when they weren't available in my area. I have a ton of duplicates, I would trade or sell if more collectors were in new England

@JosiahIsWrite 6 лет назад

On the east coast, near my parents in the Pittsburgh area, I used to get them at Barnes and Noble (also here in California) but they don't seem to carry them, although they do have plenty of other brands of blind boxes. That's awesome they gave you the free stuff, I've never had an issue like that to test it, but it's good to hear they take care of their customers. I have a duplicate Simpsons if you'd like it, just email me at josiahiswrite@gmail.com

@Josiahstoybox Год назад

This might be my all-time favorite toy-line. At least for modern toys.

@JosiahIsWrite 5 лет назад

I currently have a Simpsons one if anyone is interested. Please comment if you'd like it!

Cool collection bro! Great channel!

@JosiahIsWrite 2 года назад

Thanks for visiting!

@superbersyt 4 года назад

I grew up watching the simpsons and the duplicate I would want most is a standard regular homer. I've always wanted a Homer in his traditional look of any form, plush, figure, etc. Homer was my favorite growing up and for some reason they make the variant versions of characters more available than their regular forms

@JosiahIsWrite 3 года назад

Yeah, when I was collecting the first series the only actual Simpson I got multiples of was Maggie. The only variants I like are the ones if say Honer but that are actually from an episode.

@JosiahIsWrite 2 года назад

The comic shop in this video (Phat Collectibles) is now an excellent Vietnamese sandwich place. The shop is still around just moved farther from me.

@judygolojuh 3 года назад

Informative and great tips, even though you made this a few years ago. So, do you have any duplicates left?!

@JosiahIsWrite 3 года назад

I have one or two duplicates at the moment.

Hey brotha! I really enjoyed your video. Thanks for the tips. I’m a new collector and Kidrobot is my favorite line. I’m currently trying to collect all the Mega Man minis, so if you have dupes I will gladly take any off your hands and I plan to start to hunt down all marvel and Family Guys vinyls as well.. Thanks!!!

@JosiahIsWrite 6 лет назад

Hi Michael! Thanks for saying hello. I'm not sure what I have (I know I have some extra Simpsons) but I'd be happy to send one your way. Email me at josiahiswrite@gmail.com with your address.

Wow. I knew The Devil Flanders was rare but didn't know the number. I was luckey enough to open a blind box and find the Devil Flanders inside.
