Thank you for the trip down memory lane. I appreciate your walking through various stores and outlets - especially ones not in my immediate locale of Potland, OR
JEFF!!! I live just a half mile walk from there. I've always thought this would be your ideal store. You should hit me up if you go again lol. You'd probably also like the collectable store in the mall 3 miles away. Like this one it has lots of wrestling but also comics
That is Luke Skywalker in Bespien City Combat Fatigues; I always though the drop down gun holster was the coolest. Later on in life I would go on to discover that wearing a leg holster in hot weather, for hours on end will begin to smell NOT as cool as they look.
8:10 If you look closely in this case, you'll see a VHS clamshell copy of the UK 1994 film, The Princess and the Goblin. It's nobody's favorite last I checked, but I happen to have one in my collection! Nice to see it elsewhere since it's super niche, especially for the US.
5:28 The Zapper WAS definitely better than the Super Scope! The Super Scope had a separate interface box to plug in and position by the TV, and calibrate onscreen, it needed a ton of AA batteries, and both your arms would get tired from having to hold it up and operate it, and your eyes would strain from too much focusing. The Zapper was a gun, plug and play, and shoot away!
Ha! I found something I made in this video! At the 4:35 mark, the Freddy vs. Jason box was a set I made for the Clix line when I was working at WizKids. Always love seeing that stuff out in the wild.
I used to collect the WCW magazines as a child I wish I still had those looking at the old wrestling mags nostalgia kicked in for sure. Really enjoying this series Jeff.
It wouldn't be a WCB video without him completely ignoring the GI Joes! Also, no mention of the M.A.S.K. items, Thundercats and a classic Voltron. Some things just don't resonate with everyone, each to their own, but I'd have stopped a few seconds longer on those, especially that complete-looking Dragonfly (with the orange tips on the rotor) plus the Kenner Vader's TIE. Nice seeing some of the LJN Wrestling Superstars, I had a few of those. That was a unique line with some decent likenesses of the wrestlers. Great selection, a real Gen X paradise!
Such beauty... An era expressed in cold hard plastic and paper. Entire chapters of generations' their lives up for display. Some worse for wear, some still in beautiful condition. Thanks for sharing. This series is almost, ALMOST, better than you laughing your ass off in current year toy isles. And it hurt to see that Transformers Universe Blackarachnia up for sale there... It was probably a steal. Well, glad you got that Ninja Zord. It looked like it was still in good condition. Enjoy the playtime!
I would love to buy as much vintage merch as possible from better eras. This is the kind of stuff you would see in a museum eventually, while the unsellable waste of plastic from Ollies can get recycled into toys people and kids actually want.
8:58 holy! those are Gold Digger action figures, until now I have only seen them on ads in the very pages of that comic. Sad that its kind of forgotten comic book. Fred Perry and Antarctic Press really work hard in making Gold Digger a thing. Now I want new action figures made with the current technology that would be awesome.
Fondly remember many hours of Resident Evil on PlayStation in 1997. I still at times have feelings of nostalgia for it when I walk through a door (even when the hallway I'm entering is well lit.) 🧟🧟🧟🧟🧟👮💥🚁
I build tabletop wargame terrain. The vehicle toys often make great diorama pieces, once repainted. The Lightyear stuff was a gold mine, for instance. They're even better when the price is so low you'd swear you were at a garage sale or thrift shop. So keep making flops, I say.
Wonderful video and such a pleasant trip down memory lane. Be honest, how much time and money did you spend there? My answers'd be all day and way too much.
When the Gen X generation dies and I mean, look to the last one that is when all the collectibles from the 80s in the 90s will die. I guarantee it because none of the generations come after care.
Another small business abused by this guy. I bet he didn’t buy anything from this place. Like the other places. Then he claims he will show “his collection” but only behind a paywall. Pathetic.
It’s great to see something other than the same never selling toys at Ollies
Thank God im an adult now.
Long live the Star Wars Holiday Special
😂 at least the had good coke
Keep these vids coming.
That store is a time machine, seeing stuff I not seen in YEARS!!

Starbird Avenger still in the box! Way cool!
That's the thing that really piqued my interest!
@@GermanNightmare1976just need the Starbird Intruder!
@TI4438 Solid choice in my book!
I had one back in the day. No idea whatever happened to it.
Great video. That shop is more like a museum.
Wait. All these toys and not a Shuri Copter in sight. What gives?

1:17 Poor Hoth rebel soldier stuck under the hood of Luke's old X-34 Landspeeder 😂

@@Spartan77 Dang it I had it as Luke too but it's been too long. I had changed it before posting it.

I found the lack of Shang chi...disturbing.
I have nothing. My mother feed my toys to her dog, yep. It wasn't many or anything of value but it was my memories.

So much nostalgia especially with the sega genesis my first console
Am I the only one who remembers Micronaughts(sp)?
No. I had some of them.

My toy collection is getting crazy now I need to get display cases I have so many of them. I really appreciate your show man it's so cool 😎
6: 10 People might know Superhuman Samurai by it's original name, Gridman due to the tv shows and movie made by Trigger in recent years
and anime ssss.gridman

My esyes got PTSD just looking at that VirtualBoy
Very cool and fun episode 👍🏽😀👍🏽
Wow! What a great museum… uh, I mean store! 😀

Such a cool place. I collect Transformers, and anything Knights of the Old Republic/Metroid related.
Comic book and vintage toy stores have that nerd sweat smell and it’s great.

Dude I want that over sized wizard poster we 1st see by the door way
I had the Star Bird used as a kid
If I remember right, the early Mortal Kombat toys were basically retooled bootleg o-ring G.I. Joes.
I had a Castle Grayskull growing up, and the Origins version.
Fondly remember many hours of Resident Evil on PlayStation in 1997. I still at times have feelings of nostalgia for it when I walk through a door (even when the hallway I'm entering is well lit.) 🧟🧟🧟🧟🧟👮💥🚁
For the algorithm 🫡
Wish I had a Make Cents store where I'm at
a trip in memory

These are my new favorite
Awesome store. Hello Wisconsin!
I've always been torn between Ocarina and Link to The Past as the greatest Zelda game.
Those OT figures when complete use to sell for a lot of money, It's weird seeing them worth so little now.
I miss my 1977 Kenner Star wars collection😢
I have no interest in owning any toys, was more of a tcg/video game kid, but love the passion
6:24 I want that Tick action figure, never seen one at the vintage toy shop where I live
Check out albella bargain store just like this place few blocks up
8:02 No one is going to talk about the Nickelodeon All that figure in the cabinet ?
I had all of the bill and ted toys that were available, The back of some of the packages showed napoleon, but he was never available.
Im a Star Trek nerd and our figures were always garbage 😂😂
They had a store in Las Vegas I used to go to.
That was fun.😃
Wonderful video and such a pleasant trip down memory lane. Be honest, how much time and money did you spend there? My answers'd be all day and way too much.
Yes. His name is Gridman
Sweet toys
very nice!
7:25 8:49 oh yah G1 transformers that this guy does not appreciate

Servo, Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad :)
Are there people that actually buy funko pops unironically
In Wisconsin? I visit there once a year. See if this place can be put on the road trip.
Miami vice
Number one hit new show
Was that a ROH title belt below the wrestling figures?
Are you still piling rose tico toys wherever you go then knocked them over?
It'll be in trash dumps for eons before it breaks down..
Need more Gundam.
Not true Jeff EFAP watched Batwoman an still rattle off episodes for the anniversary’s I believe
Can we get new music that is a bit less fruity perhaps?
Your enthusiasm was lacking and that's even for things you liked? Did you actually like them? Didn't seem that way....
I have to wonder if you also have the Pee Wee Herman rap song, or A Bat Mite doll from 'The Brave & The Bold'.
Everybody loves Chewbacca BUT nobody wants to own different female versions of Chewbacca..... LOL
