Приєднався 1 лип 2024
G’day! I’m Kris. As a child of the ‘80s and ‘90s, my love for comic books, action figures, and Dungeons & Dragons was cemented. It continues today, with this channel exploring all those wonderful, odd, and wonderfully odd pop culture…um… wonders. See what I pick up, discover and rediscover.
Gifts and Goodies
I have lovely friends who occasionally give me lovely things. Let's look at them! My Little Pony x Ghostbusters, Kinnikuman, 3D printed Dungeons & Dragons mins, The Toy Collectors Wish Book Volume 2, and more!

Vypor is one of the creepy Snake Men figures from the Masters of teh Universe Origins line. Also, more cute than creepy are the tiny He-Man and Skeletor from the World's Smallest line of little figures. superimpulse.com/worlds-smallest/

What, Madballs (those gross foam balls from the '80s) are back? And available at Aldi? Yes, they are! I also look at my first 9 to 5 Warrior - the evil Colonel Custard. Don't mock his sprinkles! madballs.com/ www.9to5warriors.com/ cubeboycollectables.square.site/

My Dungeons & Dragons at 50 Presentation
Переглядів 146Місяць тому
I recently presented at two different libraries about D&D. There were prizes, laughs and a lot of fun! This is a simplified version of those presentations, but really, D&D is a game of collaborative storytelling that makes sense once you start playing. Useful links below.

Mattel Creations is a website that sells goodies you can't get anywhere else. Here I look at the cute Voltron Little People Collection, Masters of the Universe Vykron (one character-three different looks!), and a Chewbacca AT-ST vehicle. Check out Everything 80s on Spotify for nostalgic goodness. open.spotify.com/show/6oRcEu8XOZkvwna9eRbhne

My First Video-Nexus Toy Fair July 2024
That comic cut of Spiderman is numbered, if you didn't noticed..
True! Thank you 😊
oof, these new madballs look bad. The last series they did were way better
Great review 💪
Nice tour of a killer toy. My guess “skill” means general aptitude to learn and apply various skills. I just made that up though. 😂
Sounds good to me! :P
Well done Kris on your first vid 👍One day we will travel to Perth and get to Nexus and meet up with Ryan again, and maybe yourself. Cool pickups! Do you collect vintage MOTU line? Love M.U.S.C.L.E. 👌OMG! Trash Bag Bunch by Mel Birnkrant! Sweet!
Thanks mate! Yes, please do! I have some vintage MOTU, but most of my MOTU stuff is Origins and Masterverse.
Nice vid! The event organiser of nexus, Brent Scothmer, would be a great person to interview and include in future videos. Truly a talented and multi skilled person!! I was there and saw your stall aswell. I'm the proud owner of the WORLD'S BIGGEST, BEST AND RAREST MICHAEL JORDAN TOY COLLECTION based here in Perth. Google search of my name "Joshua De Vaney" and/or "Michael Jordan's rarest toy" or "Michael jordan toy historian" will show my plethora of national and international media exposure I've had with my collection. I love going down incognito just to see what's going on and if there is ever a MJ toy I don't have. Keep going and follow your passion 👍💯
Could Inspector Gadget defeat a transformer? Maybe one of the little ones?
Ha, now that would be an interesting battle!
Some good stuff
Great vid. I’m sorely tempted to get one. Disappointed about the lack of a launcher for poor little Roller though - that was a great part of the trailer’s playability.
Yeah it was! An odd feature to skimp on the new one, but I’m glad I’ve still got my vintage one. :)
Cool pick ups. Love the lunchbox! Great first vid mate 🤘
Great job Kris you’re a natural and I’d encourage you to lean into that Bather humour even more in the next episode which I trust will happen soon. BTW not sure we will be meeting in 2024 if you start that D&D tome… 600 pages wow 🤯🐉⚔️
Ha indeed! Thanks mate!
😎 Nice one!
Awesome bro, look forward to further videos to come 😊
Thanks mate!
Nice channel Kris 🔥🎆🎇
Good job bro
Well done, Kris! Banger first episode!
Thanks heaps Cem!
Great first episode man, looking forward to more! And cheers for the CUBE BOY shout out!
Thank you! :)
Great first episode mate loved the coverage of the nexus toy fair, some incredible pickups with the MOTU and Real Ghostbusters, ill see you at the next nexus toy fair in October keep up the good work, and I can tell your channel will grow
Thanks so much Ryan! Yeah, always a good time at Nexus!
