    Pixel Dan's Epic Toy Hunt Adventure: Masters of the Universe Book Signing Turns into Toy Treasure Hunt!
    Welcome back, toy enthusiasts, to another thrilling episode of Pixel Dan's Toy Hunts! Today, join Pixel Dan on an extraordinary journey as he embarks on a dual mission: a book signing for his acclaimed Masters of the Universe toy book and an unexpected toy treasure hunt at St. Louis Comics and Toys!
    As Pixel Dan arrives at St. Louis Comics and Toys for his eagerly anticipated book signing event, excitement fills the air. Fans from far and wide have gathered to meet the man behind the definitive guide to the iconic Masters of the Universe toy line. Little does Pixel Dan know, his visit to the legendary toy store is about to take an unexpected turn.
    Upon setting foot inside, Pixel Dan is greeted by rows upon rows of vintage and modern toys, triggering waves of nostalgia and anticipation. But something seems amiss as he notices his designated signing area strategically positioned next to the Masters of the Universe section. Could it be a coincidence, or has St. Louis Comics and Toys orchestrated a clever ploy to tempt Pixel Dan's inner collector?
    Undeterred by the temptation, Pixel Dan begins the book signing, engaging with fans, signing copies of his book, and sharing anecdotes about his journey through Eternia. However, as the event unfolds, Pixel Dan can't shake the feeling that every glance towards the Masters of the Universe display is luring him deeper into the world of toy collecting.
    After the book signing concludes, Pixel Dan decides to explore the aisles of St. Louis Comics and Toys, and that's when the real adventure begins. As he navigates through the store, he stumbles upon a treasure trove of classic toys from beloved toy lines and cartoons of yesteryear.
    First up, Pixel Dan uncovers a rare gem: vintage James Bond Jr. action figures, transporting him back to the action-packed world of espionage and intrigue. With a twinge of nostalgia, he recalls the countless adventures of James Bond's nephew and his daring escapades.
    Continuing his journey through the store, Pixel Dan's eyes widen with delight as he discovers a set of Flintstones collectibles, featuring everyone's favorite Stone Age family in all their prehistoric glory. From Fred and Wilma to Barney and Betty, these timeless treasures evoke cherished memories of childhood Saturday morning cartoons.
    But the surprises don't end there! Pixel Dan's toy hunt leads him to the iconic Mask toy line, where he unearths a cache of masked crusaders and their transforming vehicles. With a sense of wonder, he marvels at the intricate designs and imaginative play features that made Mask a beloved favorite among toy enthusiasts.
    As Pixel Dan delves deeper into the store, his journey takes an unexpected turn into the realm of science fiction with the discovery of Aliens action figures. From Xenomorphs to Colonial Marines, these spine-chilling collectibles pay homage to the iconic film franchise and its enduring legacy in the world of action figures.
    Throughout his adventure, Pixel Dan reflects on the joy of toy collecting and the timeless appeal of these classic franchises. From the thrilling adventures of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe to the imaginative worlds of James Bond Jr., The Flintstones, Mask, and Aliens, each toy holds a special place in the hearts of collectors young and old.
    Join Pixel Dan as he embarks on this unforgettable toy hunt, filled with nostalgia, excitement, and the enduring magic of childhood imagination. Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe for more epic toy adventures with Pixel Dan!

    Actually James Bond Jr isn't James Bond's son, it's his nephew. It's in the theme lyrics. "He learned the game from his uncle James, now he's heir to the name ..."

    Dude, I just want to thank you personally for filming that Sir Ring-a-Lot!! I had that toy as a kid, and had completely forgotten about it. That’s what I love about collecting, just when I think I’ve uncovered it all, something like this comes along and hits the nostalgia so strong. I went ahead and bought a nice one on eBay, can’t wait to get my hands on it again LOL. Thanks again!

    James Bond Jr. was Bond's nephew not son. He was named after his uncle but when he became a teen agent he started going by James Bond Jr.

  • @paolomongon6616

    Hey Dan if you ever make it over to the UK, either working a match or for a convention, we would love to have you visit us at Geek World. We just opened yesterday and are growing quickly with everything from vintage / retro toys to S H Figurearts. Vidoe games. A huge amount of wrestling figures slowly going out (no one is getting our Jim Cornette that stays in the shop). Comic books. Disney collectibles and toys. Pokemon toys and cards... basically anything in our Geek World. We are posting to the channel with updates of what we have and putting out the next day.
    But anyway a long way to say if you are in the UK please let us know we would love to work out getting you to Geek World for a little bit.

    13:32 Hudson, Vasquez and O'Malley saw VERY limited release in the main Aliens line so when Kenner re-issued them through Kay Bee in these 2 packs it was a great way to get a shot at them. I had every Alien, Marine and Predator except these 3 so I'm always tempted to track them down.

    We were pretty close to Baldwinsville NY, where the MOTU wall hangers came from. We had a small stack of like 4-5 of the Man-at-Arms in the hanging displays that Mom got somewhere in the mid -80's, probably for less than a Quarter.. I remember my brother had kept a couple in the packages with the intention of selling them years later, I would laugh at him and say they were worthless.. They kicked around the house for years, they were obviously well made, and a couple kids who we knew that liked Masters got 2 of them over the proceeding years. I believe the last one remaining was given as a prize at a neighborhood carnival in the early/mid 90's, the kid who ended up with it said it would be worth something someday and he would keep it in the package, ha ha!!
