I think Pops are getting to the point of being unsellable and I'm surprised you guys even made an offer on them. The problem is that too many people just bought them, left them in the box, and stored them hoping to resell for future profit. So now a good condition one isn't special and people who collected them know they're going to get washed on the investment so they want to get rid of them. Then you have to consider how much space they're taking up along with the complete lack of demand. I don't think anybody ever really wanted them for any reason other than speculating that others would. There's no nostalgia to them because nobody played with them as a kid. It's just generic merch that got molded into whatever IP they got a license for.
Agree 100%, and Funko Pops got a license for EVERYTHING so they cranked out and produced a pop for just about everything. There might be a handful of pops that have a high value, but most of them will never see a significant increase in value. The cherry on top, in my opinion, is that they are ugly. Aesthetically, I just think pops are boring and generic looking.
@@underwaterlevelz1947 The ones that have certified autographs will always command a high price.Same with the very rare vaulted ones.The everyday common bs is just that common but there are A LOT more then you think that are high value.
I really appreciated how you guys talked about bootleg figures. My family came from Mexico, so we had little money for non-essentials when I was growing up. But when we would go to the San Fernando swap meet, that's where I would ask my grandparents to buy me figures. Lol Bootleg Power Rangers, Dragon Ball, wrestlers, Robocop, Godzilla, you name it. That's my earliest memory of having action figures. So, again, I really appreciate you guys giving bootlegs their flowers.
I find these videos really calming. It’s class to see toys, especially from my childhood and all the collections. I was a big G.I. Joe fan, I cried when I lost my Gung-Ho figure bringing him into the last day of school.
In my school (I'm from Brazil), we were allowed to bring toys in the fridays. My parents didn't have much money, but they managed to buy me a Panthro. But we're allowed to play with the toys only in the break for lunch. Teacher saw me messing with the toy during the class, and took the Panthro from me! Long story short, someone stole my action figure from the teacher locker, and the figure was new, I had got it one week prior to that day. To this day, I feel robbed and dissapointed. Teacher or the school never gave anything back for loosing my action figure!
Like when I was little, I get up early every Saturday morning ready to see what nostalgia came into the store this week, and instead of a bowl of Frosted Flakes in front of me it’s now a cup of coffee. Love you guys and thank you for letting our inner kids shine!
Whenever I watch these, I always feel like you are having to come up with a fair price for their toys and not hurt feelings too since the toys do have some sentimental value. A very fine line.
I love them! Have tons! Plus it's something me and my kids really enjoy finding while we're out looking for other toys. See... What you make fun of, others enjoy. Same as the people who make fun of you for being adults into toys...
Sold my funkos to a guy who sells on what not. I had reservations after I sold em but I now realize I made the right move. Got out of funkos all together for good. But the strange thing is everytjme I'm out and see em in the store it's like I have a impulse to buy them. But I refrain. It was a good thing. They just over saturated themselves. Got greedy
Forgot to mention. That I love this channel. Amazing job. And I'm glad I live 29 mins away from you guys. It's so cool to have a place like this in your hometown
I AM 70ED RETIERED, THERE HAS BEEN NOTHING THAT I EVER WANTED TO BE,OR DO, BUT YOU MAKE WHAT YOU DO,LOOK AND FEEL SOOOOOOO GREAT!! THANK YOU AND YOUR CREW FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO FOR ALL OF YOUR FAN'S!!❤😂😊👌🤟🤙👍🙏
I do appreciate gijoe market being over flooded. Now I can complete or buy Cobra bat without getting my head busted. Gotta have patience and long game.
some of the best toy tube content available. Production values are awesome, filming, editing, sound, just wonderful. To top it off, the ZERO trash-bag-humans! Keep up the great content
I just found one of the Pizza Hut X-men kids menus from childhood when going through some old memory boxes my mom packed away. Pretty cool to see your recreation of those prints 😁
I found this channel thanks to the algorithm and I get nostalgic watching what goes through their shop. I did have some old LJN D&D figures that they bought from me and was very happy dealing with them. I was offered more than my asking, which is always a nice surprise. I wouldn't hesitate to deal with these guys again. Keep up the great content.
Love this store! I've picked up several items over the last few months since discovering Toy Federation with my son and it's become a once a month visit for us. Looking forward to visiting The Retro Toy Con next week as well. Plan on doing some filming of our toy hunting while we are there for our channel too. See you guys again soon!
I need a cobra bat. Crotch and legs pieces, with just the arm hand piece with a new O-ring to revive my fig. If I'm ever in town. I'll be sure to grab atleast those items.
I still have one of those Sectaurs ko's on card that I bought at Odd Lots in the 90s. The card on mine calls the line Insect Man. Always loved it, wish I had bought them all.
Hopefully some day, I can swing through and buy some S##T! My collection focus consist mainly of 1/6 scale figures and GIJoe Classified. But I guarantee... That there's something in there that would cause me to empty my pockets! I'm 49. And the 80s toys are great for bringing back the nostalgia. But I can't bring myself to start collecting vintage figures. Because they look so horrible, compared to what's available today. Thanks for another great video visit!
Im not surprised with funko, alot of people are getting out, the value is just not there. MAYBE THE 2011 TO 2013 that were very limited. But overall they became a fad. Unlike real toys that even after 30 to 40 collectors still want and enjoy, your store proves that.
We all literally thank u for the awesome adventures that come through n sell u their journey through life n then u give us a HUGE smile on our faces as fellow collectors....keep up the amazing videos on going with dope content that we pay attention n especially if there's those who r young n never saw any of this in the past n future videos to come💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾...the little kid in us all goes crazy
@@admiralarroyo777 Honestly how do you know you don't get to see them like other videos were he gets good shots of I would say every toy but its not. Again not saying anything bad about the channel at all just saying some Episodes are just filmed way better than others it seems
Best piece was the Reversed bottom Joe we didn't really get to see the rest of the toys got to see bags of toys but not the toys themselves yes was a few but again other videos you did a way better job filming just my opinion and not trying to be negative.
First guy had stuff that was more rare too bad no accessories gi joe is less rare especially the new stuff and there is alot of it especially if you count the black major stuff
If u know then u know, meaning if u grew up playing with all of these then they allll win to be real, loving for our past to be wakened up over n over with these amazing videos gets us all up n jumping for joy...so everybody wins n had the best evenly
Those mythic legion figures are so awesome but they're so expensive. I found myself buying a few of them and I'm like I could have made three or four car payments for what I paid for five or six figures jk. I want that headless horseman one so bad but $$$
I know those 2 figures you showed with the gold chest armor, but didn't know what they were. They used those bodies on some Power Rangers bootlegs. That body with a rubber head mold of the 8" Bandai figures. Also, thanks for the memory unlock on the Roboforce figures. I forgot about that toy line. I used that giant walking thing as an AT-AT for my SW figs.
The nacelle company remade Sectaurs! :) And they are doing biker mice from mars! PS the Figura Obscura Headless horseman has some of the best detail, check the horse and the WARE detail on straps/saddle fabrics parts.
I see that child who lay upon her bosom and who bore my name, a man winning his way up in that path of life which once was mine. I see him winning it so well, that my name is made illustrious there by the light of his. I see the blots I threw upon it, faded away. I see him, foremost of just judges and honoured men, bringing a boy of my name, with a forehead that I know and golden hair, to this place - then fair to look upon, with not a trace of this day's disfigurement - and I hear him tell the child my story, with a tender and a faltering voice. It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to, than I have ever known.
Just like you’re noticing alot of Sectaurs, I’m noticing a lot of “knock-offs” of your channel popping up on my recommended lists. You guys are still the best. 👍😁✌️
I cant remeber the name but there was this toyline back in the mid to early ninties that had these little 2 to 3 in figures that came with mechs by any chance you guys remeber that name or if you have any of those
Lol see his face when he opened up that tote of pops 😂 👎🏻 he’s probably got people bringing them things in every other day …..everyone is trying to jump ship and get out of it
He should of kept the pops and sold them himself, $100 for 20+ pops is crazy. I’ve seen some walking dead and game of thrones in there, some of those go for a good amount
I got a few mexican unlicensed dbz figures. I dont know if you can call them bootlegs because they are original scupts but they are cool. My eis shenron is green and has a melty face

@@toyfederation Wait so your telling we got to see the glow on that Horsemen and Headless Horseman ? Or did the video end with him walking into the dark room? Im not trying to be Negative about the show at all just saying don't end the Video in such a way which has happened a few times again love the show just could end it better.
Send all those Funko Pops to the landfill like the company did! I hate those ugly little things. They're the worst epitome of collectible for the sake of collectible.

The Gobots were cool to see. I had a few as a kid. But SOUNDWAVE…. I’m on a quest for that one also.
Suck up

They will never be unsellable there are pops still worth thousands and always will be

They did do this in 2023. Supposedly $35M of inventory thrown out.
@@underwaterlevelz1947 I never understood why people would buy Funko Pops. Totally agreed, they are visually boring, there's nothing going on on them.

Just look at comic shops that just sell funko pops, there not doing well, some in my area of virginia are not even taken them.
Whenever I watch these, I always feel like you are having to come up with a fair price for their toys and not hurt feelings too since the toys do have some sentimental value. A very fine line.
It is!
As a Mainer and toy lover all I can say is I appreciate the Portland seadogs hat!!
You guys are great, all very natural on camera, feels like I'm actually in the store for these transactions!
Funko are the new beanie babies
I was saying that since they came out
Every time I watch an episode it takes me back. Much love from CANADA 🇨🇦.
Thank you !
The downfall of Funko. I'd watch that documentary.
I would laugh the whole way. I couldn't stand them, they are ugly!
They should follow the way of Nintendo and dig a big hole and dump the inventory

Cliffhanger ending !!
Is it?
The owner always seems so polite but aware it's a nice change. If I had one wish for this channel would be a video with the game chasers/ toy chasers.
Noted!
Edit **
Haha I thought this was the comment about the totes 😂 whoops
?
Totally forgot chuck norris had a toy line lol
The best part of waking up! Is Toy Federation and Coffee in my cup!
We are the Folgers of toy collecting!

The quality of this pooptube production is outstanding. Keeps me glued to my luxurious folding sofa. To where nothing disturbs my attention 😂❤
Pooptube!?
“Feddy popper” hilarious
Travis will buy that awesome Horseman, we all know it.
You think so?
"oh it glows!"
During the Retro Toy Con ad, did I spy a Trypticon on the floor next to Ryan?
Come to the show and find out… 🫣
I love the karate kommandos stuff and you were right its called the karate corvette love the vintage stuff #norepos another awesome video guys!!!!
I SWEAR TO GOD THEY USE THE AGE OF EMPIRES BACKTRACK FOR THIS
People that collect funko pops always say they arent gonna be the next beanie babies while everyone that doesnt like them has seen it coming lol
Yeah, they’re terrible. 80% of people keep them sealed. There’s no scarcity at all,

Love this show! But the background music was to much, Couldn’t really here the talking at some scene. But ❤the show!
It wasn’t the music it was the fans because the AC went out
Hey, I see a Portland Sea Dogs hat in the video! Also, yet another great collection!
You know it!
I'd be charging people to take funkos off their hands
You didn’t let us see the horseman glowing in the dark!!

Knockoffs?!
love these videos, i want more more more !
More to come!
Also wow i wish i could make it to retro con just too far away from me in ny and i cant get the time off of work but the exclusives are Awesomeness
I've been saying for last 5 years, funko pops are the 2000s version of beanie babies
Did they have a sell on the yellow and black containers? Everyone who comes into your shop has them.
Everyone!
Must be a southern thang
Lowes had a sale on them not that long ago. Like 3 or 4 for $10 I think
damn I wanted to see it glow lol, great episode as usual
It’s Saturday afternoon, I should be outside working on my car, but I’m inside watching grown men play with toys.
A good variety of stuff another good video I'm looking for a soundwave also I like stuff that glows as well
Good to see some coleco stuff, but where is the StarCom stuff?
Your show is entertaining.😊
Are black and yellow tubs really cheap? Everyone has them!
$9 at your local big box store like Menards
@@homersimpson5668yup it's a southern thang
Costco has them for $9, and when they go on sale there $7
All Home Depot’s ma flowed have them

Ah! RoboForce. Forgotten toy line.
Excluding the pops, it's $700 bucks, including the pops, it's $500 bucks.
Do they have a website or eBay store?
We do not
I see you Moon Patrol!
Ya' didn't show the Pumkin' Head Glowing? :)
Gotta come see that in person!
The pops never appealed to me, but I'll admit when they came out with the wh40k blood angel, I had to own one
Those sectaurs bootleg are sick
got bandai soc!
Lol see his face when he opened up that tote of pops 😂 👎🏻 he’s probably got people bringing them things in every other day …..everyone is trying to jump ship and get out of it
#RetroToyCon 🎉
youtubes gonna kill itself with the ads
Great video for the inner 80s child in me
Glad you enjoyed it
I anticipate the next video in this channel more than any other channel i follow.
Really!?
He should of kept the pops and sold them himself, $100 for 20+ pops is crazy. I’ve seen some walking dead and game of thrones in there, some of those go for a good amount
Getting anyone to buy anything now is almost impossible sadly, especially with Funkos-- despite possibly having ones that are sought after.
Funko pops run fast.
I got a few mexican unlicensed dbz figures. I dont know if you can call them bootlegs because they are original scupts but they are cool. My eis shenron is green and has a melty face
🥰❤️
No more pop's 😜
My best friend sold he's pop's he got a hard $13,000 a lost a 3rd the price
Wow!
Love a bootleg
Yea?!
Funko oversaturated their own market. Funko has no one to blame but Funko
Love the show but this episode was messy quality took a huge hit since the first couple of episodes.
Hope you get back to doing it right
That’s a pretty rude comment
@@toyfederation honesty can be helpful.
it's better if someone says you smell out of your mouth compared with no one saying it.

Send multiple people in your channels direction only good intentions
Nothings changed. Our AC went out so you’re hearing fans which we made clear at the beginning.
Vintage for modern I will never understand it
Never understood Funko Pops!
This Generations version of Treasure Trolls! Lol😂
Santa’s not black sorry.
🎉😊
40 pops total I will offer 40 cents there a hard seller. I'm choking on them squeezing a penny trying to make a buck
music is too much
It’s the same as it always is. Thanks for watching
YOU GOT TO STOP ENDED THE VIDEOS WITHOUT SHOWING THE TOY DANG IT!!!!! LOL I was like now that was one cool piece the headless horseman with horse
We showed all of the toys!
@@toyfederation No at the end you cut the video before showing the Glow, you guys always seem to end right before you show something good it seems.
That’s simply not true
@@toyfederation Wait so your telling we got to see the glow on that Horsemen and Headless Horseman ? Or did the video end with him walking into the dark room?
Im not trying to be Negative about the show at all just saying don't end the Video in such a way which has happened a few times again love the show just could end it better.
"Oh, it glows." 😂😂
Send all those Funko Pops to the landfill like the company did!
