Man, your channel is so refreshing. I’m an age where negativity and conjecture is everywhere…you keep it wholesome, authentic, and positive. Thank you. Glad you are all doing well
Thanks a lot for your efforts on this video Matt - they are truly appreciated. It was great to watch. It must be incredibly difficult to be an action figure reviewer on YT. As in the case of ordering a pizza for 20 people, there are different likes/hates everyone has. Owning an action figure retail store AND review those products has to be incredibly challenging. Add fatherhood to the equation, and all I can say is not all superheroes wear capes. Good to see you back.
Matt, you are the most genuine person on RU-vid who does what you do. Love the videos every time. Glad you're doing better. I'm a open figure collector, I may one day check out your store. I just try to buy local and as cheap as possible. I hate shipping. Good luck, and keep the video's coming
Particularly enjoyed this video! Your positivity, even in the face of some potentially offensive questions, is much appreciated and definitely noticed! Congratulations on the success of the store and the channel; you’ve had to overcome some significant challenges and have done so with impressive grace. Love this channel and glad you’re back on your feet!
GREAT to see you back Matt! 😃 Thank you for sharing the struggles you’ve had with depression and how this hobby helps with your mental health 🙏 Grow old, Not up. 🍻😎
So proud of you man. Your dedication and hard work on your RU-vid videos is very much appreciated by your viewers. I’ve been a loyal viewer since around the beginning of your RU-vid channel. 13:54 (Smiling): Wait; May-rio? You wouldn’t say May-ria for Maria? -The Disneyland Neighbor
If youre taking any kind of video suggestion re: your idea of unboxing videos, I would love to see a regular "Big Nerdy Direct" unboxing series. Basically, showcase the new toys coming into the store as they arrive, including a quick mention for any restocks. I'm awful at keeping up with new releases of figures, so a chill "hey, this is whats new at Nerdzoic" video every month or so would make for great content for those of us out of the loop on new toy news.
I love your vids, they’re a refreshing change of pace from the formulaic reviews all saying the same thing; hearing someone talk about this hobby who has experience in the actual market is really interesting and unique. I also love Retroblasting and Analogtoys, just hearing people discuss stuff I live in an intelligent and dignified way is really cool.
Glad to see you back buddy. And I thought I was the only one who wasn't finding any stuff when I do my runs lately. It's few and far and in between that I actually find anything I'm looking for
Glad to hear you're feeling better. Always happy to see RU-vidrs take care of their health! When your videos are good people will wait for the next one when time off is needed. Congrats on your store continuing to do great!
Your kids' cuteness caused my cold-blooded heart to grow one size larger. Now, I have an enlarged heart and low blood pressure!!! Thanks a lot. Anyways, since you don't want to do normal reviews and seem disingenuous by recommending or panning a figure you're trying to sell... You should consider doing a Nerdzoic weekly Top 5 or 10 Hottest Figures (based on your store's sales data) like ToyFare and Casey Kasem used to do. It's basically already your thing, since no other reviewer uses sales data to rank figures. Plus, since you love spreadsheets so much, you could keep track of the Top Selling Figures of the year, so that when you do your Top Ten at the end of the Year, you're not comparing Apples to Oranges, but dollars to dollars.👍
You have quickly become one of my favorites on RU-vid! I put you right there with Dan (Toy Galaxy), & Anthony (Anthony's Customs), at the top of Toy RU-vid. Plus your kids are adorable. Thanks for giving us a peek behind the curtain and glad you are feeling better!
Big Nerdy, glad to hear you’re doing well and the store is thriving! By far the best packing and delivery speed in the business!! You’ve inspired me to start a RU-vid channel myself… I just gotta get started
Good to hear from you bud. Im glad to see your doing better. I know all about kidney stones I have to pass at least one every December. My wifes been in the hospital since Thursday night. Friday they removed it and today are going in to remove stones that moved.
Ngl, I didn't notice you were gone. I get all the store updates with new preorders so I figured you were busy with the hustle. Glad it's paying off too!
Matt! You were one of the very first toy RU-vidrs I ever followed - I truly patterned much of my channel after yours - glad to see you back and can’t wait for the next video!
Good to see you again. For what it's worth, a weekly "new in the store"/drop/new arrival unboxing would be great. It is hard to keep up with evrythjng that comes out, so just unboxing a case, maybe a quick comment if soemthing catches your eye.
Hope that Toy Con you wanna do is in or close to NJ! I'd check it out for sure. Glad you are feeling better and I wish more success to the already great store!
Big Nerdy so good to see you and your wife handle the mail order bride question with such humor and grace. I'm a big Southern Corn Fed American white guy married to a Filipina.....and we have heard this question numerous times before. We always tell people we had our child to secure a green card....lol My wife is an RN and makes double what I do.....if anybody was going to be with the other for financial security it would be the other way around. Lol
Welcome back Matt! Oh the stones - I've had a couple of them and man do they suck. Especially a 12mm - Yikes! I hope you're feeling better bud. Look forward to more vids, I love what you bring to the toy tuber space!
So my order of Mezco Freeze earlier this week taking just under 48 hours between me placing the order and it arriving at my doorstep is kinda insane... and this isn't even the only glowing customer service story I have had with you guys - congrats on the success and expansion of your store - wishing you the best!
Key to walking in nature is to find a place where you can rest. Like a picknick table or some half cut logs or something. Then when your there you can enjoy a snack and some relaxation.
Good to see you back, and happy to hear that you are recovering smoothly. This Q&A video was fun and I appreciate you taking a brief moment to address the small/insignificant number of jerks on the internet who say the worst things to people they don't know and you make them look dumb. That was funny 😂 Keep up the good work and looking forward to more content from you. All the best.
Nice to see you again. I became a fan of the channel before your store started. I became a fan because I liked your personality and it feels like a toy buddy vibe. But your store venture has been an awesome experience. Made a few happy purchases. Planning more down the line.😊😊😊😊
I'm happy to see you again, Nerdzoid. Nothing is more important than your health especially to your love ones. Glad you feel better. I want to tell you that it doesn't matter the video editing or the video production you make this channel worth watching. Your personality makes this videos fun to watch. You're funny, dude. I have a question about starting a toy business myself. How do I start my own toy business in 2023 with all the new technology available. I hate my job of 20 years and I love toys but I want to be able to make ends meet. If you have any pointers I will appreciate you letting me know. Thanks for everything and welcome back.
Channel Goals lol im getting there we are currently looking for a new house so we have room to do these things super hyped hope it all works out for you keep at it
Welcome back Matt, I always laugh when I hear somebody say they have had their first kidney stone, I had my first one a 9 and I have had 48 kidney stones , 5 procedures and one surgery because of them so far. My doctors have told me I'm highly prone to them. One thing that can help a lot is to drink water with lemon juice, the citrus will help break up the break up the stones. But i do hope you don't get one again. I wish I had a question for you, but i don't. You guys do awesome work, and I'll be putting in more soon.
If it's amy consolation, I'm English and I'm obsessed with pop culture, but then again England and the US has a lot in common so maybe I'm not a good comparison. Anyway, welcome back and sorry to hear about the Kidney Stones. Glad that's all sorted.
I found you about 3 months ago! I’m a big Gijoe fan. So I love when I pre order from you you take the money right then! I wish I could order everything Joe from you but the Target, Walmart and Hasbro exclusives really piss me off. I would love to give my money to small businesses like yours! Keep you the great work!
@@theflyingninja1 I really like watching his video. So when he was MIA I had a feeling it was his health because of how big he is. Good to hear his good now.👍
Thank you for the update Matt, glad to hear you are doing better my friend. Wishing you all the best and much success, have a TOYRIFIC day!!! Looking forward to more streams!!! =)
Hey Matt, do you think there will be reprints of the spider-man 60th stuff that will hit the UK? Missed out on AF Spidey and not willing to shell out 50+ for him, hope you’re doing well
Have missed your live streams:) glad you are back, and funny we all not only share toy collecting, but all the personality ‘effects’ that make life more interesting & fun;) Birds of a feather Big N.
Hey Big nerdy I think the doctor who character options figures are going to be a massive collection next year, because its a 60 year old show and they've just joined disney plus
Kidney stones are the worst. Played FF w/ an older gentleman who had chronic stones. He'd have one like every few wks of his life. Couldn't imagine. Take care
Wishing you a quick recovery. Your Store is The Bomb 💣 KABOOM ! You also Created The Action figure Awards , Big Needy You are A Trend Setter & The Voice For Adult Action Figure Collecting, Also Love When You Sell Army building Bundles , Now That's Just Genius. Nice seeing your Videos Again, But I understand it's not Easy Being and Octopus 🐙 Having 8 Hands To Multitask all your Ventures Wishing you always The Best . A Fan For Life 🧬 Big Nerdy 4 Sure.
Who DAT! Great video and tell your son if he's not a Saints fan at least they have one of the best looking uniforms in the NFL. That Black and Gold is 🔥!
What a relief! There's a rumor going around York that your wife caught you having an affair with Bebe Rexha, and a fierce legal battle was going on. Glad to hear all is well.
