Your collection never crazes to amaze me. I just love the stories behind everything and how readily you recall them. All these pieces seem very special.
Always enjoy your studio tours. For some reason everyone else feels like they are just showing off, but you are very humble in a sense, when you do these style of videos, I just feel like a buddy walking through your place, being introduced to all your neat collections. Enjoyed the small edits in this, great video!
Admiration for what each item is, and not really about what their worth. That’s my take. A multi hundred dollar item right next to something worth little. Both treated with reverence.
For whatever reason I imagined the rubber Alien toys from Toy Story in the Claw Machine watching this video. With every new thing shown they all go "Oooooooooooo!". LOL
Hey Mike, great vid! And it was totally cool finally meeting you at JoeFest yesterday!!! I appreciate you taking the time out to talk to me for a bit since I know you were on a bit of a mission then. LOL. But thanks again and maybe see you at the next one! Keep up the great work!
nice to see posters and autographs displayed that way .and great start to collection tour .i love the art .sometimes toys become same on diffrent channels .but your custom tomb raider poster looks awsome thanks sharing this part your collection
Caught a glimpse of a Hot Wheels Service Center playset in your storage room. I'm getting ready to start a restoration of one myself. Loved that playset as a child. If you were to ever make a review episode of the playset, I for one would love to see it. Keep up the great work!
Your autograph framed photos of Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher is my favorite! I had a chance to meet Carrie Fisher at a Con she was at but couldn’t stay because of my drive was leaving. 1 of my regrets in my life!
This is really cool, and I love the little stories you gave. "Less is more" definitely applies to your displays, way better than some of the claustrophobic, borderline hoarder-looking things I've seen. Excited to see part 2 with the toys! Hope you keep the same style going, both in how you display your collection and how you show it off in a video.
It was great to meet you today at Joe Fest - I love a clean, organized, personal collection (and I'm feelin' the overflow room). As you say, "the fans are making the best stuff" and I walked out today with a 1:12 scale custom FANG copter and Sky Hawk!
Thanks for an updated studio tour, looking forward to the next part. There is a lot of work keeping the love and passion alive, a lot, but it is all worth it and it is a beautiful thing. Keep the love and passion alive!
Incredible Michael. 😊. Amazing collection. So professional & Organized too. Awesome too see how long you have been at this. To bad Hollywood doesn’t hire you.
Pretty cool Michael. The framing of the pictures gives me some ideas for my early 2000s bought highly authentic Meryl Streep pictures that in 2003 that I got for less than 50.00 but now go for pretty stupid money and the irony is when I got them not many people were into Meryl like now hence very legitimate signatures for what vendors now charge for those simulated ones
That P-38 Lightening looks amazing, that's the grail piece for me for sure! As always, your framed images and signatures look great, just a very nice presentation of fandoms.
I had Sky Commanders back in the day. Didn't know anyone else who had any. A while back I downloaded the "oohteedee" versions of the Star Wars original trilogy where he has removed all the terrible special edition CGI. It was really great.
Absolutely Incredible. A fantastic collection. I'm just so upset that the Terrahawks and Dalton Aston Martin (and optional Candy.... Jelly Babies and the like) got lost in tne post.... Someone is enjoying them somewhere i'm sure.
Did I spy a World of Halo Warthog in that storage room? Loving the studio tour so far and absolutely adore all the historical and personal stories attached to the items. Retroblasting continues to be one of the most genuine and heartfelt channels on this site! 💜
Do you have plans as to what you will do with all the toys and collectibles after you and your partner pass away? I often think about that with my collection which is close to the size of your collection. As of now, I don’t really know what to do but I don’t want to burden my extended family with selling everything.
The Chewbacca image on the Star Wars circus poster reminds me of the Japanese Star Trek V poster - the only difference between the American and Japanese poster is a single insert shot in a circle of the alien cat lady with three boobs. Seriously, aside from the Japanese lettering, that’s the only difference. It makes me laugh every time.
His interest in Kylie is not a romantic and/or sexual matter. And Melinda is fine with his enjoyment of Kylie Minogue. She's helped him acquire much of his collection.
Sneaky Chewie on the circus poster is pure gold.
Your collection never crazes to amaze me. I just love the stories behind everything and how readily you recall them. All these pieces seem very special.
Wonderful collection of autographs. Kudos on the custom framing
Thanks for the tour. Most Impressive. Nice to see Blue Thunder make a brief appearance.
Awesome collection and mad respect for having a Ricardo Montalban autograph.

“And water for reasons!” 😂 bite size room tour episodes is perfect, means I can watch while working 😃😃😃
Looking forward to part 2 Michael 👍
All those wonderful posters and signed too even the entrance to your studio is a thing to behold thank you for the update
Fantastic collection! Michael it was great meeting you at JoeFest this past weekend. Hope to see you again next year!
Thanks for this video RB crew. I smiled a lot watching it! Looking forward to the next one!

Always a treat to see Kylie Korner.

Great Tour! I love the Indiana Jones Whip and poster!
Ohhh, Im so envious! Thank you for inviting us into your studio. Anxious to see part 2!

Hello from Wonderfest 2023, Great video Michael!!!
What a beautiful collection sir
Great video tour, Michael. Can't wait for part 2
Always enjoy seeing these updates! Thanks Michael
I love how clean your home is.
Thank the lords of Kobol, your overflow is worse than mine 😂. That was fun, awesome collection, thanks for the tour.
That Rocketeer poster has been a favourite of mine since Summer '91, it is a work of art
Aww man the Toy Room! cant wait. Wanted to be a toy collector as well but life always gets in the way....
Your autograph framed photos of Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher is my favorite! I had a chance to meet Carrie Fisher at a Con she was at but couldn’t stay because of my drive was leaving. 1 of my regrets in my life!
Great idea to take scans of your books to get signed!
Great video and amazing collection, can’t wait to see more content and part 2 to the tour
Another fun update and cool start to the tour.
Awesome walkthrough! I can't wait for PART 2 when you go into the collection room display cases.
Superb collection! Outstanding efforts! Excellent presentation! I would love to see this in-person. RB producing hit after hit in ‘23!
Good to see I am not the only one with a chaotic storage room😊
This is really cool, and I love the little stories you gave. "Less is more" definitely applies to your displays, way better than some of the claustrophobic, borderline hoarder-looking things I've seen.
Excited to see part 2 with the toys! Hope you keep the same style going, both in how you display your collection and how you show it off in a video.
And why would I suddenly change the video style?
@@retroblasting just wasn't sure if you had as many stories attached to the toys or as much to say about how you got the display up.
Very nice collection!
Thank you for this men!! Always excited to see the updates!!
Cliffhanger... Great displays
Man those are some amazing pieces. I can say much besides Wow.
Also cool seeing around the area we see in videos. Where you do live streams etc.
So freaking cool. Absolutely love it 🎉
New tour! Thank you. Been waiting for this video. Can't wait for part 2.
Great tour! Always love to see Rocketeer memorabilia.
didnt expect a Kylie Minogue shrine but I'm impressed
Great video! Can't wait for part 2!

Going into Windsor tomorrow for lunch :) Athena is long gone though I remember buying my posters there in the 90s :)
The “Back to the Future” piece is amazing. Oddly enough, I had that same GI Joe issue (Snake Eyes) signed by the inker Bob McLeod last weekend.
That custom Tomb Raider poster rocks.
Beautiful collection Sir, beautiful framing. Seeing Timothy getting some love warms the old strings.
I have that one last time standee unassembled in its original box given to me by a buddy that worked at blockbuster video. Cool stuff.
This is the third time I think that a video hasn't showed up in my subscription box?
I wish my hobby room was as organized as yours.
The Southern American Boy who became an honorary British dude! Great way to end part 1! I look forward to part 2! Excellent video!
Thanks for an updated studio tour, looking forward to the next part.
There is a lot of work keeping the love and passion alive, a lot, but it is all worth it and it is a beautiful thing.
Keep the love and passion alive!
The voiceover in that "one last time" advert is Jim Cummings who would go on to boice Hondo Onaka in The Clone Wars and Rebels.
Man, the collection room is always a work of art in my opinion. Was great meeting you at Valacon!❤
You have some amazing pieces, and I like the props above the posters
AWESOME ! This is a real treat
I was just watching the other ones a few days ago!
Incredible Michael. 😊. Amazing collection. So professional & Organized too.
Awesome too see how long you have been at this. To bad Hollywood doesn’t hire you.
Epic 👍
Great video.
great update michael! thanks!
Amazing items Michael. I remember seeing wrath in that cinema and they were handing out posters. My mom still has it.
I still have the Star Wars One Last Time VHS tapes. :)
WOW! Awesome tour. Can’t wait to see part two.
Harrison ford autograph wow !?! That alone is crazy impossible to get !!!
One day I hope to stand in this ever famous studio! Another great tour my friend.
New RetroBlasting video ‘with’ Robert Shaw cameo…win!
Pretty cool Michael.

Awesome tour. Great to see you at JoeFest. Glad the TerrorDrome is still on the long project list
youtube closed captions: "Mark Camel" 😅
I said it correctly. Quit bomb throwing
Oh my gosh, that is so cool! I wish I had so much room for my nerd stuff. Lol
I can’t wait for part 2.
Mike's studio is far cleaner than mine
That P-38 Lightening looks amazing, that's the grail piece for me for sure! As always, your framed images and signatures look great, just a very nice presentation of fandoms.
You have an amazing collection. I would love to see it one day. You could be like Field of dreams and charge people. LoL
very cool
That was awesome. I was waiting for you to take us to your final room. Your very own private theater. Hope to see you make one, one day.
There are three more rooms and I've shown the TV room in both previous studio tours.... what are you talking about?
@@retroblasting just a private theater for films.
Dude... Timothy Dalton is my A # 1 Bond.
Your room and studio tours never cease to amaze. Thank you very much for allowing us to see your collection of, well, everything, especially memories.
Womb raider was my fav
I used to have that trilogy display
Broken Vader didn’t get any screen time in the recording room I see. I can’t wait to hear his response to that.
idea for you dress up that area under the counter where you have those joe vehicles as the gi joe hanger on the base
Thanks!
Thanks, Scott!
When do we get a runway video of Michael and his t shirts?
Boxed Power Rangers toys!

@@retroblasting your collection diffrent every other as you have great knowlage so enjoable .look forward to it take care from uk

His interest in Kylie is not a romantic and/or sexual matter. And Melinda is fine with his enjoyment of Kylie Minogue. She's helped him acquire much of his collection.
@@timothyward8695 thank you. I sincerely

SMFH..... Not everyone is a creep, you know....
@@retroblasting I'm sorry, didnt mean it that way.
