    I've got more statues, figures and toys on display now than I did growing up decades ago. Mix of polystone TMNT, Starting Lineups, NECA TMNT, figma LoZ and amiibos. 80s and 90s were peak humanity.

    What I've noticed about a lot of podcasts is that start including 'bits' into their episodes. Maybe you could have something each pod for a few minutes like a Q&A, or current favorite toy in the store, or a specific toy brand to discuss in detail. Etc

  • @rebelsatcloudnine

    Any chance that you could do a Q&A video? Have viewers send in questions to be answered, I think it could be pretty fun. But I'm also really enjoying this podcast, and I'm not much of a fan of podcasts. But this show has really been fun and has slowly been getting me back into collecting again.

    Oh man, i have GOT to see that old footage of Toys R Us all of that. Sometimes I’ll go around and look for old footage of KB Toys, or a new mall that just opened from ‘91 or whatever. So many good memories. It really ain’t like it used to be. It’s both good and it’s a shame.
    But that’s why I’m glad there are stores like this to bring it all back, if only for a moment

    I think it would be a great idea if you began producing a "NEED PARTS LIST" leaflet that you can either publish on a website or as a physical leaflet that you could place into your bags when you make a sale so that customer's old and new can see what you're missing and want to buy off them

    brilliant keep the good work what would be a good watch is if you have the same figure in different conditions and show what you would say goes on the shop floor and also maybe show and explain why a figure or a vehicle does not { we know if its not complete it does not go on the shop floor just would be interesting to see the conditions of them :)

    The interner is a doubled-edged sword. It's been a great resource as a collector, as I wouldn't know what I'd have done by this point without it, and im thankful for all the friends ive made through this hobby along the way, too. On the other hand, it's been a tool used to fuel the greed of many, making basic retail shopping tough. I always try to count my blessings where i have em.
    Love the pidcast and the main channel. Hope someday I can make a visit :)

    I could care less about collecting toys; I don't have anything on my shelves or a desire to hunt on eBay...that being said, I tune into every video. Fascinated by your guy's passion, commitment to the craft, and organization. You guys always say, "I wonder why the other guys do it differently." Obviously, they can't care as much as you guys. Well done; the cassette flip intro is a simple example of fire creativity. You guys are dope. Thanks for the entertainment.
