Poundland Special: Train Set, Kinder Eggs | Ashens
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 сер 2024
- At last! An excuse to do Kinder Eggs! And some cheaper versions. And a train set. And some wrestling figures, as is traditional.
Deleted Scene: • Poundland Extra: Bitin...
(And no, the Poundland staff do not recognise me. They have hundreds of customers every day and I only go in once a week.)

It has taken me nearly 4 years to realise it says "Super Speed" backwards on the train car •_•
Omg...you are a genious!!
:0 omg!!?
I got it when u said that I thought it was jibasish
That is absolutely hilarious. Obviously somebody told the designer to put it on backwards, and they've don't just that.
Then it took me 4 and a half...
"I've been to Poundland again! Sorry."
If ever there was a slogan for the channel, this is it.
It's perfect!
And so is your profile picture. It's super cute.
+Kyū S., mine's better
an egg the years start coming and they don't stop coming and they don't stop coming and they don't stop coming and they don't stop coming and they don't stop coming and they don't stop coming and they don't stop coming and they don't stop coming and they don't stop coming and they don't stop
+Kyū S. Thanks, I drew it with my hand and brain.
holy shit, fancy seeing u here!
i love how the company is named greenbriar, because greenbriar is this vine like plant found by creeks and it has really painful spike things sticking out of it. who in their right minds would name a toy company after that, its like naming a toilet paper company poison ivy
They aren't a toy company. They are the parent company of Dollar Tree. They are so named for the area of Chesapeake, Virginia their headquarters is located. Which got its name from the farm that used to be here, and that was named after Greenbrier County, West Virginia. Some dude named Thrasher moved to Chesapeake from there and started the farm. The county got its name from the river that runs through it. And I don't know for sure, but the river was probably named for the plant.
It could've been worse: the TP company could've named their product Gympie-Gympie.
@@sampski47 I read that as Cheapskate, Virginia
The breathing holes in the capsule halves are a anti-choking measure. Kids will chew on them or pop them open with their mouthes eventually, so if one gets swallowed accidentally they won't suffocate horribly.
This is why BIC's ballpoint pens have a hole in their cap, as well.
It's also why Lego Character Heads have a hole in the top and bottom.
Some do: s98.photobucket.com/user/dr_spock_888/media/lego/heads_zpsdb28307e.jpg.html
Maybe it depends on the country's regulativ requirements they are delivering to.
***** A lot of pens have a hole in the top too.
That could be why willys have a hole in the top aswell!
Natural selection being hampered by sad onions and liberals.
No wonder we have so many stupid people in the world now, we've cut out most of the scenarios that would have seen them wiped out in the past. Worst thing I've seen myself recently was an M&Ms flavoured candle, in a glass cup, on the label it said not for human consumption. Like anyone would mistake a candle in a glass, with a wick in the middle as something edible. But I imagine somebody must have, or it wouldn't be there. You'd imagine anyone stupid enough to eat a candle, wouldn't be able to read anyway.
I was in a gift shop in Mablethorpe yesterday, and saw a train set not unlike the one in the video, but it was boxed, it had an extra carriage and the engine was steam-outline. But my favourite thing about it was that, on the box, it read "excellence design". Somehow I think the people who made the train set actually wanted Ashens to make fun of it.
+Rexeljet I havent been to Mablethorpe in years, but I remember all the gift shops on the main street with the arcades, you know the one with Heron's? (I don't know if it's still there, but the Factory shop might be) and most of the shops there were full of cheap crap to buy
Josh Knapman The Factory shop was still there when I went (not sure about Herons), and yes, the gift shop was on the street with the arcades!
Yeah, i went there as a youngun and bought so much tat, when i went to my nans caravan at kirkstead
+Rexeljet Buy it! Mail it to him!
+iconredesign ashens: ANOTHER TERRIBLE FRIGHTENING TOY TRAIN
THE TRAIN OF DRIVE HAS NO BREAKS!
Widow Peak What do you think it is? A train of brake? It's quite clearly a train of drive.
Widow Peak the track has a break, though.
THE TRACK IS IRRELEVANT
Widow Peak
What about a mother of all nukes
"deeps repus" is actually "super speed" printed backwards witch shows us how derpy the company is.
I don't know why but that makes this whole video funnier to me
It stopped becoming a Swedish heavy metal band and became some sort of drug.
Renko Usami Like something you'd find in a crate in Fallout.
Or deeps rep U.S
Renko Usami it's not just a drug it a super drug
Those breathing holes on the toto "egg" capsule was incase the pod is ingested and becomes lodged in the throat. So the person choking can still slightly breathe air into their lungs.
Pretty sure "deeps repus" is "super speed" printed backwards. XD
Holy moly, never noticed that xD
Makes sense to me
AVGN has LJN, Ashens has funtastic.
Was about to say the same. What if Ashens found a AVGN toy at Poundland... CO-MADE BY LJN AND FUNTASTIC!
Edit: How tired was I when I wrote this?
Lord Morgan Probably.
.
And signalex
Atleast LJN made the alright spiderman game...
Anyone remember the old kinder capsules that you had to like bloody stand on? The ones where the entire lid came off? Such a pain
Nope.
Brady Turner Aww
I do.
The foil was also different. The new ones are two pieces folded on each other on the edge, but the old one was single foil wrapped around the whole egg.
Yes those were impossible.
That Sofa........ It should have its own Twitter account
Fucking ashens spilled more food on me.
#Fuckashens #Weirdyogurt
This is what you would see.
DoctorPlague "you like something i dont like!"
its genuinely like these people are wanting to be called fascists.
DoctorPlague Shut the fuck up.
DoctorPlague I don't think that's physically possible.
DoctorPlague You're a troll, never mind people, he is just a guy sitting in his mother's basement, let him be.
i think that the capsules in the eggs are yellow because they're meant to be the yolk?
Peter Adams aww that makes sense; the White chocolate of the kinder egg inside is the white part of the egg and the capsule is the yolk.
Hmmmm
Nah, the capsules used to be orange. It's coincidence.
@@BloodrealmX Yolks can be orange
BloodrealmX When you buy a pack of three and the kinder egg toys are part of a range (Marvel, Barbie etc) the orange egg signifies which one has the branded toy in it. The yellow ones have random toys in them.
The American bylaw you mentioned was actually needed a lot when it was first made, it was first made back in the early 1900s because if the meat industry. In order to cut back on cost, they would use less meat and just stuff the meat with sawdust and things like that to save a buck, this lead to lots of people getting sick, so that bylaw was made.
+dan coster But in Europe/Canada, people did the same things. In Britain, they used to use plaster to make bread whiter.
We (UK) use food adulteration laws so you can't put copper in butter, chalk in milk and stuff like that it was very common in the industrial era
There's a Japanese type of Chocolate egg by a company called Furuta which feature very well detailed model cars inside, not quite true HO scale, I think they hover around 1/80th to 1/85th scale.
Really ?
@@darkforestzombie218 Yes
Jesus Christ the cardboard puzzles!
When I was a kid, I used to get a Kinder Egg every week on Saturdays and I was always so upset whenever I got a puzzle!
Of course I'd complete it and have quite a bit of fun doing so, but I was always so sad.
The toys back then were so much more fun then now...
"Good god! He's a madman!"
That always cracks me up.
Why is DEEPS REPUS so funny to me?
The way that piece of chocolate span around at 9:21 for a few couple of seconds gave me excitement
If you read it backwards, "DEEPS REPUS" reads, "SUPER SPEED"
LOL! Some of these companies are just a touch...odd.
Just like my father told me when I was a child: "Deeps Repus"
"BUT THERE IS A DARK SEED IN THIS GARDEN MY FRIENDS!"
-Ashens 2012
Scrolling through the comments and I read yours at the very same moment Stuart said it.
Mildly interesting, no?
At a quick glance, I saw deepus repus and immediately thought Biggus Dickus
0-3 sad onion means quality
It does sometimes!
i used to love those jigsaws in kinder surprise
Just a fun little fact. Dollar Tree's corporate HQ is near where I live in an area of Chesapeake, Virginia called Greenbier, pronounced "Bryer" like a patch of thorns.
That Chesapeake place is nearly and anagram of cheapskate LOL
So, if I eat a lollipop and I try to eat the stick as well, and choke on it, does it mean US will ban lollipops because they're not 100% edible?
+Kyū S. do please
FondSteam39 ok
+CakepopCX errr chuba chups ect have very hard plastic sticks , not edible?
***** I love you too. :)
+Noah 11677 it's called a joke.
My childhood.
One sister getting a cute toy in their Kinder egg, the other a flimsy puzzle.
Stuart, you foresaw the outcome of that situation accurately.
Ashens the wrestler that has dragon on him is rick the dragon steamboat (a legend) and the second one us rey mysterio
Stewpot...the odd tri-face game is supposed to be a low rent Whack-A-Mole.
I think it's a puzzle and you have to press them in a certain order to get all the buttons down at once. Whack a mole doesn't make sense.
ah, good memories of kinder eggs, my aunt in canada would smuggle them across the boarder to america so we could have them.
I want to know if anyone else noticed that DEEPS REPUS is SUPER SPEED backwards
I did ever since I saw this
Just watched it and had to see if anyone found it out as well
OH MA GAD
I did😊
14:45 It's an attempt at whack-a-mole. The others in the set are recreations of carnival games as well.
Does anyone from America remember wonder balls?
Do they still make them? Haven't seen one in ages.
+Nick Gregory Not that I know of. presumably they quit making them for the same reason kinder eggs are banned.
btRaddex Damn. :(
Nick Gregory
I know, right? I'm rarely outside of my home state so some palces may still sell them, but I doubt it.
+jamestheawsome100 I remember. For a while after the toy capsule things were banned they filled them with those little candies that were like Flintstones vitamins made of sugar instead.
Such shame that Kinder Surprise is now crap. I can still recall times when there used to be a cool toy you had to actually assemble yourself :)) although the chocolate is still equally as awesome
OH NO we dont want children to choke on giant plastic capsules!! but we do want little children to have guns...
except, they are in america now. and that's not why they were banned in the first place.
and the 3 out of the 6 deaths caused from kids choking on toys from kinder eggs happened in the UK.
except nobody's allowed to buy a gun under the age of 18-21 depending on the state.
in fact most gun owners are well into their 30s-40s.
you are, quite literally, comparing apples and oranges.
the kinder eggs were legitimate concerns, but children and guns werent.
***** Well a toddler did accidentally shoot his mother with a gun in Walmart.
Ellie Mullins
only because she was a complete moron and left her gun with the child.
"I've been to Poundland again... sorry."
That DOES look like Colin Mockery....now we need, what was his name, Ryan? They are like a duo.
“And here comes Greg Proops with a steel chair!”
I still like how the auto subtitles at 6:55 are confused but the munching noises jusz saying "Wrong wrong born all wrong"... Which is nice
6:54 Best Ashens eating sound.
As a little kid, I use to refer to human poop as to-to. Animal poop was called do-do. Doesn't help that the To-To product had chocolate....
The address at 1:12 is the same address as Signalex, which is at 5:24 in the very first poundland special.
Just ate a Kinder egg while watching this. Guess what, I got the same crocodile!
1:40 Ashens would really like Gomez Addams' train set. His train set DOES explode!
It occurs to me that "Nought to Three Sad Onions" would be a good name for a band with three members.
Greenbriar is "Dollartree" brand. They have soaps, bandaids, cups etc.
What is funny about bandaids?
I don't know if you are from the US. adhesive bandages are commonly called "Bandaids' here even though it is a brand name. Just like nose tissue are called kleenix here or tissue. :)
Never knew that! Thanks!!!
Adrian Murphy Never knew that! Thanks!!!
I think cardboard jigsaw would be a NICE toy to find in one of those... D=
The thought of that wretched cardboard jigsaw puzzle decomposing in a landfill somewhere for the past seven years pleases me beyond words...
and I was watching this while tidying up my £100 model of the flying scotsman
Did anyone yet mention the little 3 faced toy in the kinder egg was a sort of whack_a_mole thing?
I remember when you used to have to build the toys. That was all part of the fun
Your sarcasm is hilarious
The way he removed the tin foil from the Kinder Egg made me die a little.
In the US a company recently started making Choco Treasure, which was designed to pass the laws. It's basically the same without the white chocolate and a slightly different shaped capsule.
DEEPS REPUS = SUPER SPEED?
Deeps Repus actually is a band.. I looked it up.
I found the same thing. I can't help but wonder if there's a relationship.
John Burns it's also super speed backwards
Kinder Eggs are legal in the US again.
EDIT: had my first Kinder egg at a truck stop in the middle of Nowhere, America while working as a commercial trucker driver. It had a little motorcycle inside (I was trying to get approved for a real one att)
But what if Kinder Eggs had miniature guns inside instead of toys? Would America lift the ban? Hmmm
Hahaha classic
+Jason Corleone Yes. Instead of a choking hazard, they would then be a freedom hazard.
***** Except Iowa. He will annex them lol
+Kyū S. While it is legal, it's much more limited than it is in the states, and it's quite a bit more of a pain in the ass if you want anything a bit more "dangerous." Also, I'm pretty sure we can't have anything automatic up here.
+Stefan W you can have full outo but its just a pain in the ass of whats neded to have them
Actually, they came out with little chocolate surprise eggs just like kinders. I forgot what they are called, but they are sold here in the US in stores. They've been out for a while though... damn it, just talking about it REALLY makes me want to go out and eat some chocolate.
6 years late but I think you're referring to Kinder Joys.
@@TakimekoI see those things every time I go shopping, never picked one up. Might buy a fistful and see if they’re worth it
@@FurukawaAkane They're pretty good, i'd say. Just don't bother with the crummy toy.
@@Takimeko Noted, although with the increasing popularity of gacha machines stateside I'd say that's a nonissue for some people lol. I'm a sucker for decent chocolate though.
You can find just about every kind of Kinder brand candy (excluding the eggs, obviously) in most international markets here in Colorado. They're all amazing.
Wait, "Nestle" is pronounced "Nestlay?" I always though it was "Nestlee."
Nope, it's Nestlay. That's what the accent on the last "e" is for.
Tim Wright There is an accent?
Now it all makes sense....
vzwGrey Yes, it's Nestlé ☺
Tim Wright :0
God dammit America! Learn to write out accents!
the cart says super speed backwards
I totally said Ray Mysterio too, I absolutely loved him as a tiny tot, WWE was on Fridays when I was living close enough to hang out at my grandparents house and watch it.
I'm from the us and when I heard about kinder eggs for the first time I didn't understand the hype, I thought it was like crackerjacks but chocolate and filled with cheap coin machine toys but those are actually COOL? now I'm genuinely upset
Poor you, I have like a giant bag full of these toys, they are my childhood literally, I was hunting on them to get full sets and so many cool toys were in them :D
Weren't they banned in the us because you can't have a choking hazard in the food?
armadilloFlashFire so... they've always been banned then!?
When you'r a kid, delicious creamy chocolate and toys are amazing
0 to 3, Sad Onions.
I remember them, I loved the chocolate and the toys too. Although they were a bit better when you made them because they could fit toy cars 'n' things inside.
Now kinder suprise is mostly paper not like before :_(
yeah, always the damn jigsaw puzzle >:'c
(edit: and the moment I post this... Ashens got them - yeah I know, I shouldn't comment until I've seen the whole video)
I feel as though the only reason they are still in business is because of there one customer... ashens
The tip of the small blue cone of fire is the hottest point
when i was kid i always cryed when i had a fukin puzzle from kinder egg ;_;
"Le portique d'action".... What? Is it supposed to be "action playset" in French? 'Cause I'm French and that just means nothing (translated back to english it would say "gantry/gate of action"). That's some nice Frangrish for you there.
Back about 5-8 years ago my local Dollar store had 1$ train sets that took batteries and I have so many of them I loved them and there where a high quality that I still have one today
Guns are cool but for fucks sake keep kinder eggs away from me. They're fucking lethal!
If you choke on the plastic it can be.
Not that anyone really actively choked on these things to get them removed it got banned on a technicality from a law that didn't even account for a Kinder Egg.
And guns are on various levels of restrictions with gun free zones.
Free cockroach in every toy.
😂😂😂😂😂
I'm American, and I remember going to this foreign candy store and getting a egg with a toy boat in it.
Watching this right after having an emotional breakdown 🤪 yeeyee
mary I know right?! This will fix it.
"More milk, less cocoa" That doesn't exactly sound like a good thing does it?
6:54 - Alan Partridge at his lowest point, gorging himself on Toblerone.
Funtastic is in Birmingham... The postcode is literally 5 minutes from me... Oh Funtastic, WHY CAN'T YOU MAKE ANYTHING WORTH A POUND?
Toto Eggs - I bless the rains down in africa
I'm american and I've had a kinder egg or two. My cousins from Ireland brought some when they came to visit for thanksgiving last year.
Deeps Repus!
6:25 That's actually true.
Kinder eggs are sold in 3 packs in one stop for something between £1 - £1.50. In the 3 packs they do 2 normal toys and 1 toy thats already a thin eg barbie, monsters uni. Some of the stands are 2 in 1 because they are stands and hair brushes because some of the figures have actual hair. They now also do kinder bars for 36p and 8 mini ones for £1.
"Oh man, train set's bore me. Absolutely none of them do anything interesting like explode."
You wouldn't happen to have The Addams Family in the UK, would you?
anyone remember which video where he said "My wife left me"
VintageRKO
Bit late but, I think it was one of the earlier Poundland valentines specials.
I noticed that DEEPS REPUS was just SUPER SPEED spelled backwards. But what makes it amazingly hilarious is that it's NOT just an issue with the label turned backwards. Each INDIVIDUAL letter was turned around; which is a mistake so horrendous that you would likely get fired on the spot! WOW!
in pound land i had a look around a drink can had 49p marked on it i go to the till with it and they say that will be £1
3:29 You can't shoot a gun, you're in Britain, remember?
You can own and shoot a gun in Britain.
you can have a gun in Britain but you need a license for it, you know, to stop 9 year olds from horrifyingly have a dangerous weapon specifically designed to kill other humans like its a toy...
Scine Bamm There is actually a background check in America and a legal age for gun ownership. You know that right. Also, guns aren't made to kill people. AR-15's and AK's are used for target shooting a shit load.
Bilbo_Gamers "Gun's aren't made to kill people."
I think what you meant to say is, 'Gun's shouldn't be used to kill people.'
Regardless, I don't think anyone denies that plenty of people enjoy target shooting. However, if that were the single purpose, nobody should be opposed to having to leave weaponry at the shooting range.
+Manard Guns have one use. Kill/maim. It's not like you can chop wood with it or use it to mine iron.
That train carriage has the same name as my favourite superhero, Namrepus
So are things like peaches, mangos and avocados banned in the USA ?
MrTabs64 Believe it's mainly for manufactured foods. Obviously chocolate eggs with toys inside aren't natural, and it's to keep companies from stuffing food with things like sawdust to save money.
Drowns In Kool Aid don't blame a company for bad parenting.
KV-2 BiasMobile Then you clearly don't know the health issues with food in the US when such laws were enacted. Stuffing food with inedible shit was common enough that it was a crime officially to do so. Parenting has nothing to do with MY point, just that some idiots like 100 years ago caused the law for the rest of us.
Drowns In Kool Aid but there is a difference between stuffing meat with sawdust and putting a container in a fucking chocolate egg.
KV-2 BiasMobile but by law it isn't and it's a huge hassle to rewrite a law like that just for a candy. Imagine millions of tax dollars being wasted just for kindereggs when people already complain about things like military spending and government transportation spending (which is actually a drop in the bucket all things considered)
haha you are just generally funny :D
00:06 You don't need to apologize, Ashens!
Ashen, when you go to buy stuff from pound land, has someone (who works there) says "are you going to take the piss out of our stuff agian?"
Kinder eggs are banned in the US? I'm in Canada and they've never been banned here.
WEIRD INNIT ITS ALMOST LIKE ITS A DIFFERENT COUNTRY INNIT
Ketsa Official innit?
innit
Ketsa Official what is that? lol
Ketsa Official oh nvm i got it
The weighted ribbon thing is a "hacky sack" type of game played between a small group of people.
Somebody about British people saying chocolate makes me feel like I need to brush my teeth.
Chaklet
I think I finally have the true answer as to why Kinder eggs are banned. There was too much worry of the inter-family fighting might escalate to something more with all those guns lying around.
Stankity Azz As if all American families have a weapon storage.
The weird thing about the train set is that there are preserved British carriages on the box (British Railways Mk.1s in Western Region 'chocolate and cream', and one in British Railways standard maroon.) but the locomotive has been badly photoshopped on, and is an American replica of No.119 with the number removed from the disc on the smokebox.
Just the box alone is a mindfuck.
TRY THE CHIPS! P.S: Chips are called French fries in America. ~ The More you Know...
Brady Turner They also call Chips, "Crisps". Having a friend from England, I've kinda gotta used to it by now. I've accidentally called chips Crisps before, and my parents were confused.
