It was really good to meet you, I'm glad you had a good time in the UK, and we hope you will be back here for another toy hunt soon!😁 Amazing video, you picked up some amazing stuff 😁🔥
Thanks so much for the spagetties 🤤

Never a dull moment with The Toy Division 🤘🏼 great people over there 🇬🇧
They are so nice and fun to hang with 😁
What a weekend and what an amazing show! The videos is great. Looking forward to the rest of it.
Thanks buddy 😁🤘 can’t wait for yours on saturday!
Great video Ed, was awesome to finally meet you! Looking forward to the rest of the 🇬🇧 content 👊🏻
Thanks buddy yeah I gotta start editing 😄
Great stuff mate!! Next time... Beefeater 😂
Beefeater will never be the same again … 🤣🤣
Great times great memories with great friends looking for great classic toys....love your channel Ed and look forward to the next video.....
Thanks so much 🤓
4:26 that reminds me of watching it in the cinema in 96'... Got me jump up when it's face suddenly split open.... Good ol' days, Lol
I love that film 😁
Amazing to meet you dude and glad you had such a wicked weekend! Looking forward to more UK Eds Retro Geekout videos 👏
Was great to meet you too and all your tmnt goodies 🤘😁
See it's awesome videos like this that remind me what collecting can really be about- making new friends & hanging out with buddies! I would so love to visit a non-US toy shop & show. Great video sir w/ some sweet finds! Almost every time I see TMNT stuff in the wild, I think of you. On a side note, I once had a bunch of the Mask movie toys on card! Be excellent to each other!
Epic the mask toys get a bit underappreciated 😁 and totally so cool connecting through youtube with other collectors and then to finally meet and see them in real life is amazing 🤓
Yeah!! So glad you enjoyed the UK Ed! Great to have you here finally! 🍕
Thanks buddy 😁🤘
Fantastic video capturing the vibe and atmosphere of NEC.
Thanks buddy 😁 we had such a good time over at your collection
If you’re ever back in the UK you’re welcome to come and see us at 88mph toys & collectables..thanks for buying the Mask figures👍
Awesome i hope to do another tour maybe next year 😁🤘
I love seeing how genuine and awesome all the different collectors are to each other it’s like a brotherhood… I just started going to some conventions in the New Jersey - Pennsylvania area and it’s cool talking to these guys and having conversations like you’re in elementary school again lol
As always great video 🤙🤙 cheers
Thanks buddy 😁🤘
You got to meet Aaron and vic I’ve nearly meet them a few times but our rimes at fairs just crossed . You got so much cool merch lucky you.
Aaron & Vic are awesome 🤘🤓
Love your channel man! My fave channel to watch! Only best wishes
Thanks buddy 🤘
Loving the Trap Door figures.
Aw yeah 🚀
Kool toys like kid in a candy store. I am like that with anything tiana, 2pac, or Lucille ball stuff. I totally collect Lucille ball items.
.
Great video man! You really captured the toy fair! The hunt, the deals, behind scenes and the laughs with the toy division lads! 🤘🏻
Thanks buddy 😁
This show looks amazing. I wouldn’t have known where to begin.
Yeah i must have missed so much stuff 🤣 toy overload
brillant to see u in the u.k we have some awesome toy conventions here have fun great vid love the turtle wall decor i had those there old x
I had never seen that before but needed to have it 😜
Awesome hunt, great video :)
The Captain Planet set is a really good find, it contains the very rare European Exclusive figures of Ma-Ti with Monkey Suchi and Kwame with backpack & compass. In the United States there was only a Kwame & Ma-Ti 2-pack without any accessories for them (just the rings). The rarest figure is Captain Pollution, I got lucky on ebay after many years when he was listed from someone from Italy.
Thanks, i had Ma-Ti as a kid so i probably have that monkey somewhere 🤔 indeed the cap pollution is a tough one to come by but he looks cool 🤓
Definitely, you are the Turtle Guy Ed!!
When i find or see curious turtle stuffs here in Spain, i think how near-infinite is the world of vintage turtles merch.
Waiting you to open your ninja turtles museum soon.☺️
Spain has a lot 🤩 I need to come over
Awesome hunt brother. Love the Capt Planet figs that was a nice pickup 🔥
Thanks buddy 🤘
my stall 7.22 in. you left the last bit of the zord in the tub 😂
Love you, brother. Great to hang out and I look forward to seeing you again soon. :)
Will be great to hang again 😁🚀
Great video dude and some awesome pieces to be seen glad you had a good time at the NEC 🤙
Thanks buddy 😁
Good old Retro stuff!
For me, it's all about the Hasbro Battle Beasts, and Coleco's StarCOM :D
Aw yeah battle beasts 🤘🤘
@@EdsRetroGeekOut I had a complete collection once (But not the Laser Beasts 😞), but ended up having to sell them. I DO now have the full set of their spiritual successor 'Beast Saga' figures though!
Amazing!!!!😍😍😍😍i want to go there haha!!👏👏👏
They do it 4 times a year 🤘
Awesome video Ed the people you had on were so cool the show looked amazing!!!
Thanks so much I had a great time 😁
Man ID LOVE TO GO TO LONDON especially to see Arsenal Football Club
Nec is such a great day. Pleasure to finally meet you also. You bagged some cool stuff. I have a loose mondo floating round the shop somewhere. And something turtles I totally forgot about. I'll send you a pic tomorrow
Epic dude! Loved that we got to go to your shop as well 🤘 well worth it and oooh tmnt goodness 😍
Very fun!
Thanks buddy 😄
I loved the captain plante toys.
So good the cartoon was great 😁
Wow I was waiting for this bro I'm more than happy to see this.Bro u inspired me to recollecting all over again besides my buddy around my way.
Thanks buddy 😁
Ed: How much is it?
Vendor: For you 5 pounds.
Ed: I don't have money anymore.
Vendor: Then why ask? Here, take it. (Throws hat)
Me: 🤣
That’s the way the haggle goes 😜 supply and demand and luck 🤣
i walked by a booth that had a complete captain planet line carded.
they were listed at 10 dollars each CAD. this was 12 years ago. i watched the show when it was on tv and i started to sing the theme song.
the booth owner said "you can have them for 5 dollars each, i have had them for 5 years and no one wants them". i did not want them either and i passed.
looking back i wish i had bought them.
Yikes if only we could go back to those prices 😜
Looks like a lot of fun there. As far as pickups this week - Mcfarlane The Batman (Unmasked Robert Pattinson) & Mcfarlane Mortal Kombat Malefik Spawn. Going to my first toy show this Sunday in almost 2 years. Can't wait. :)
Nice pickups 🤓🤘 i hope u find some cool stuff at the convention

@@EdsRetroGeekOut no worries 😊 yeah it looked like it and a lot of fun
Your vids are so good!!! I'm jealous of that Minty Fresh King Hiss. Would be amazing If we get an Origins version of Hiss.
I wonder how they’ll do the hidden snake body thing then 🤔
@@EdsRetroGeekOut Probably the same way just more detailed. I would think 🤔 More close to the original.
Such a fun vid
Thanks 🤓

Hi, first time of your. -Watched your video up until 12 minutes or so. I was hoping to see action figures, vehicles, or creatures from Star Wars, Galactica, and G.I. Joe’s.
-The Disneyland neighbor
There’s a lot of star wars in this video, gijoe wasn’t well represented at this fair. ;) thanks for watching
great video

Completely passes up the 80s Robotech fighters..dude!?
Oh yeah that thing was cool but not what I was looking for 🤓
havent been on YT for a bit getting caught up...been sick for awhile but finally doing better..
Good to hear ur doing better ;)
Wow! I still got the blue pinball machine robot. Always thought it was a cheap knockoff Transformer.
They look really good, can’t believe Ry found em in such good condition 🤓
So I can't be the only one pausing these videos to check the vendor tables right.....
There’s some really good stuff on there 😄
Another great video! Quick Q: I’m curious, how often have you seen any merchandise for Galaxy Rangers? The figures only came out over there and I assume everything else did as well (books, stickers, etc.) Thanks 😊
We did a whole segment on them in the Leicester shop video which will come out, they only had a few merchandise bits 🤓
@@EdsRetroGeekOut sweet! I look forward to it, thank you!
The seller that had the booth with the samurai big movie turtle had one of the rare Captain planet figures that only came out overseas Duke nukem in his Beach shorts that glows in the dark with batteries
Indeed 😁i got one the day before tough 🥁🤘
23:02 European variant of Duke Nukem, since you were looking for Captain Planet stuff.
Yeah I had acquired him the day before 😁🤘 but was cool to see another one love the hawaien shirt on him
if you doing a tour we have a scifi shop in torquay devon mate called temporal scifi
Ooh sweet! 🤘
Where was that hulk hogan figure with the toys r us sign in the background?
Spacebridge store will do a full video on that one 🤓
Must hit one of these fairs in the UK, so close.... any news on when theres another fair maybe this year somewhere in the UK ? TIA
They do 4 like these, i think if you type in barry potter toy fairs you should find the dates and the sanddown toy fair is also pretty good ive heard
very cool video thank u
Thanks for watching 🤓
@@EdsRetroGeekOut your welcome
Hey edd, I just got a eterina for my almost complete Motu collection!
That’s awesome dude 😁🤘
Love the videos keep them up!🤓👍
Ed! If you come to Austin, TX, hit me up! I wanna be your friend!
Allrighty not sure which part of Texas we will be going to 🤓
@@EdsRetroGeekOut Keep up the awesome work, my dude!
Man you UK cats take care of your toys.
They sure do 🤓
I havent seen any on video, but were there any dino riders there?
There were def some loose ones but i didn’t see anything boxed or any stall with loads of them
Second
I thought it was you, but didn't want to come up and ask just in case it wasn't.
😅 i get that, that could have been akward. Did you find some good stuff?
I have 4 new heman figures all free thanks to Amazon and damaging the packaging. Called complained I got em all free plus 40 dollar gift card. I plan on getting the entire line FREE thanks to Amazon since they always damage them. Love the free stuff and free gift cards distribution at Amazon keep damaging the packaging 🙏
That’s great 😁
Man its a shame in in london this is awesome
London area or close to it has plenty of good toy fairs though! My fav is Sandown toy fair which is actually done by the same company as NEC one. The next one is in May
@@shortinos oh really? Thanks mate! Im clueless where good toy fairs usually are
How much is a quid in $$$$ lol
It’s 1.2€
@@EdsRetroGeekOut 😂😂 I looked it up after I watch your video. It always seems like stuff from overseas is way better than anything here in the us. I can't find half of the stuff I saw in your video. And if I find it it's crazy expensive
