The hefty dude at 23:02 is Baron Harkonnen from the 1984 version of Dune. If those were from LJN they're originals, otherwise they're from the Super7 re-release of line from a couple years ago.
"I find your lack of Dinosaurs disturbing." Is what i was gunna say until @ 23:30 & 25:58 lol. I'm a HUGE Palaeo-nerd and would have appreciated sum Jurassic Park shout-outs. :- ( That was a great Con video, thnx much for sharing. = -D I absolutely LUVD seeing the Visionaries figs there considering how obscure they are. I had an episode on tape as a kid but wasn't crazy for it at the time. I was more into M.A.S.K., having 3 episodes of that show on tape and i'm surprised yall didn't mention any of the few examples present there. I'm not into army toys so the GIjoe sections didn't thrill me, but the vint stuff with the soft-goods is always a wonder to behold. Being a NECA TMNT junkie i did appreciate featuring the vint Playmates figs. I frst got into Kidult Toys wayyy back in 2009 with randomly discovering MP Skywarp at Walmart for a mere $30. I was actually on my way to buy Model Car kits because i'm a classic car fan since teen years. N E way... There i was walking thru the Toy Isle completely uninterested in toys when suddenly, i caught a glimpse of a big "old school" looking Robot. I was into the new Bayformers movies but didn't want toys of them. However i immediately noticed this toy was an homage to vint TF figs, and the biggest shock was that i recognized it from my childhood for i once had a Skywarp toy in 1991. I definitely wanted to experience this highly-detailed and articulated Masterpiece for myself and when i saw it was on sale i made the decision. The nostalgia and awoken memory of that awesome thing was the catalyst in my Toy Hobby to this day.
BTW, i was already into retro nostalgia stuff with Movies, Music, & Cartoons since 2003. I had recent begun re-watching that old G1 TF cartoon from my childhood but i did not anticipate a hobby of buying any toys. Seeing how great the MP line was sucked me down the "Rabbit Hole". 😅
Thanks so much for the comment! Justin also found an MP Skywarp on sale at Toys R Us. Kyle never stopped collecting Transformers, but Justin got out of collecting for a while. Strangely, it was Lego that pulled him back in. Neither mirror twin is big into military stuff or GI Joe, for that matter. We just love high quality action figures at a decent price, and the classified figures have that in spades! Thanks so much for sharing your story!
@@mirrortwins9694 i got to agree those GI:Clasfids are great figs! Thats cool he found an MP Skywarp, was it around year 2009? Which LEGO got him into collecting? I was all TF until i also got back into Building Bloks in 2012. I didn't get into regular Action Figures until a few years ago with N.E.C.A. TMNT. I did buy a Funko Dany Targerian in 2014 and a Marvl Lgnds Weapon-X in 2015 but thats all for many years.

I thought that was a Dune guy!
27:11 Oh damn, I had that shark! Following Jaws either GI Joe or the Big Jim line released a scuba diver, as I recall, and the shark came with him.
That shark was really cool!

I believe it was around 2009 when the MP Skywarp was found. It was a discounted Monster Fighter set that rekindled Justin’s love of LEGO.
Saw My Stuff to Buy at the 22 Min mark! Oh to live in a State that actually has GOOD Cons and things!
We are lucky. This one is pretty good.
