Happy to see you having fun, Dan, I've still got about a year to wait until we'll finally be heading back into Chicago (God willing) to hit up some convention toy hunting again at Godzilla Fest but these keep the excitement alive while we wait :P
Kaiju bin stuff was Ultraman kaiju--sooo cool! That Dai Rangers set! Woooow! It's always awesome to find stuff you didn't even know existed. Like that Target Exclusive Micro Machine tank before I even knew what Target was. Good stuff, Dan!
Heyo! Man there it is! Not many of my toys survived but the other day I was cleaning out a shed and found that Ogra helmet. I remembered it from being a wee tot but had no idea what it ever went to. Funny enough I also had the comb (for whatever reason)
That Toonsylvania toyline is reminiscent of another toyline I remember from the 90s which is Mad Scientists from Mattel. Would be cool if you could find those and make videos for Halloween cos they're very Halloween appropriate toys.
You would think they would wipe off the dust before trying to sell it at a convention. The dirt of that Roton. Id pass on some stuff just because of how grubby it looks. Especially if they want good money for it.
Love that pizza. And this looked fun. Glad you got permission from the boss lol. Also love the fact you have the same hair style as my new DC multiverse Bizarro fig lol. Awesome.
Never heard of Toonsylvania. I like getting Halloween-esque things, so I probably would've bought all of them. They look really fun & definitely unique. And like you, I would've regretted it by not buying them.
It was a short-lived horror-themed comedy cartoon on Fox Kids in the 90's. Had a great voice cast! (Wayne Knight as Igor, David Warner as Dr. Vic Frankenstein, Brad Garrett as Phil, and Jess Harnell as Wink Dracula!)
I had some of the Super Alternators as well and never knew what they were at the time. I like the part where you ask for permission to buy the Toonsylvania toy. It is nice to see the part of the toy hunt where you run it by your partner and have them be the voice of reason. Many a time I had that conversation and you always hope it is a yes but sometimes it needs to be a no :P
I'm itching to get back on the toy hunt but 'the situation' isn't good in my area. Someday. Oh, and I bought the MotU Toy book on your recommendation. It is glorious. =)
I don't get the exorbitant prices either, whether it's at conventions or toy stores. It's like the mindset is not to move product. Having so much inventory isn't good business.
Awesome video Dan. I'm loving your Masters of the universe book. When I'm not reading it I use it to work out with. Haha. I just got to the She-Ra section. I also bought Pat the nes punks super Nintendo compendium finally so I'll be switching between that and your book. Hopefully you do more books like that in the future.
I've been following Quad Con since they've expanded their number of shows. I will be expecting a video Daniel. Don't know when I'll be able to get to it though as they will have a show here in Des Moines Iowa the 30th of October and I'll be going to it. Covid hasn't really slowed Quad Con down all that much.
So much awesome stuff! That Thundercats clock is AMAZING...but way overpriced IMO, I think a more realistic price should be around $85-100, I know I've bought weirder "one of a kind" franchise items like that, & paid way less. The Golden Girl figure is awesome, I only have one of them & would love to find more! I have that second robot you showed at the beginning, & never knew they were called super alternators, very cool! Always awesome to see your toy hunts!
Man that Dairanger Kiba Ranger and Byakko set was a surprise. Being that hes a ten year old in Diaranger I also look at those episodes in judgement in power rangers now. Did Zordon kill a kid to get the powers!?!?!? That one bin was all Ultraman related. Saw some clips and man that was Corey with the monster deaths. Even when they used a Godzilla suit with a frill. Did not end well. OG ROM in box wow. Price 😱 Who has the rights today as a new figure based on the IDW update be nice along with rest of the team.
I have a mint-in-box ROM in better condition than that one. It took me years to find one, though. First toy I ever had. I'd say that price is about $300 too high. $500 - $550 is fair. Also have the Thundercats alarm clock, it's great. :-)
Great purchase Dan and great video. Shame that you didn't show us what MOTU classics were for selling.... I'm so happy that I saw Stina and you totally played "good boy" card on her for buying that playset but I'm glad you did it. 😊 Cool video
hi glad see you streaming collection .it tough but you will hit the same feelings as deval destion soon than you think .i am 57 and had cut down collectiin as taking over my life .my family sufferd alot money and quility time kids they grow up fast and my suffering wife not fun for them no matter what they say to you they just want nirmal life .toys are the collectors obsetion not their familys they suffer .
I truly want to know his thoughts on this too. He-Man is his bread and butter... I can't see how he can avoid it. Unless its solely about getting free toys to review at this point, which would be a shame.
Hey Dan I have been watching your stuff for quite a while. I understand you're into the toonsylvania stuff but only for video purposes. Well you might want to think there are people who want to collect those because they collect dark and spooky stuff. Just try to be fair that's all I'm saying. Thank you for your time
Man I miss toy shows! Though the lack of covid precautions on display is a little disturbing. Some of those prices though! 20 bucks each for random loose Kaiju's?!
