    We batch episodes, we've heard your complaints about narration. We used it to give you context as to why the G.I. Joes were there, and in an effort to improve on the videos since we've seen a dip in view count recently! Thanks for watching!

      is there anymore in the batch? for us that enjoyed the 80s throwback. I was sad to see everyone's disapointment, because I know you'll keep the viewers happy.
      also why are there no quality repop accessories? it's just various densities of plastics blended and melted. they don't have to be so off

      I’m just saying I didn’t see a lot of reasoning as to WHY people didn’t like it-I realize that things like that are subjective, but just saying “I don’t like it” doesn’t seem helpful, it just seems antagonistic. Which, hey, if you’re into that… 🤷🏼‍♀️ Salut?

      I think because he's selling so hard, passionate is one thing, but when somebody enters a shop and has almost commission salesman vibes it's a little offputting. The passion was def there, but that mixed with that vibe and pressure to me was a little much.

    My humble 2 cents is that a huge part of the charm and appeal is the feeling of being there with you guys in the store. Anything like music or narration that's too overblown and TV-ish detracts from that. The marimba music gave it a nice atmospheric feel in non-dialogue sections, creating a more low-key documentary feeling. I can imagine there is a narration element that could also work, but like the music, very low-key and down to earth. Keep us feeling as if we're there in the daily business of the store.

    Seeing tjose Joes made me regretful. I sold/traded mine all to a dealer friend. I loved Tiger Force and Python Patrol as a kid! Im way more focused on Transformers now, but as a kid, Joes lasted longer with me because the scale was always more consistent.

    I don't collect the vintage Star Wars 12 inch, but I must say, this episode was so informative. I learn so much from this channel and really appreciated the interaction in this one as I learned so much from both sides. The discussion on the boxes was spot on as well, as I am mostly a loose collector, if the box is decent and somewhat displayable, then I am ok, otherwise I don't really want to pay extra for a box. But that said, boxes are few and far between, so sometimes a better one is not going to come along, so you have to take what you can find. So I really can see the argument on both sides.

    Ryan and Toy Federation crew, to give you some constructive feedback on the narration rather than just saying "it sucks". The appeal of the show before was as a viewer you were just hanging out like a lot of successful YT channels. You felt like you were at the store or convention with a group of people who share the same interests. The narration completely takes you out of that. Also, you gave great insight before and if the viewer wanted to learn more, we would further investigate on our own, we do not need the narrator for that. I have not watched the last 2 videos because of the narration and I will not watch anymore until the narration is gone. Looking forward to those Saturday Mornings. Thank you.

The customer in this video should come back for another video because he had some great insight, genuine enthusiasm for the line and is clearly a serious collector.

    Who's idea was the voiceovers?.... Was it the Toy Attics guy? Because it seems like something he'd try and sell you on. You don't need it, and you don't need to try and keep things fresh. What you had was perfection.

    If they're fake Ryan wouldn't be buying all 6 for $1800.
    The 12-13 second intro narration didn't ruin the video for me.
    The GI Joe collection...awesome. Ryan took time to go through many of them. I didn't collect GI Joe so Ryan's information was helpful & entertaining. I like how excited he gets about the "minty" ones. If Ryan's excited about it, you know it's good.
    Dave the ebay seller/collector from Georgia: Not hating on Dave. He's like a lot of collectors, he's passionate & talkative.
    BTW, I always like the inclusion of the 1970-80s TV commercials. Takes me back.
    Ryan explaining "when plastic touches rubber too long" it softens; explains perfectly the loose hands.
    I appreciated Dave's willingness to share his thoughts. They both can spot a fake. Great discussion about 3D printed fake guns vs. originals.
    This you tube channel was a great idea & I love it. Keep up the good work guys. Most of us appreciate every episode & don't complain. 👍

    So funny reading all the comments on the narration. It reminds me in season two of Transformers and they changed the intro. I was like hell no! Peter Cullen would make a great voice over!
    Love you guys either way!

    To those who are hating the voiceover I wouldn’t say it SUCKS but it does take away from that homey feeling from previous videos. The rawness of the commentary while observing the toys in front of you being appraised/bought in is what makes it feel so comforting. The voiceover explaining things takes away from that. That’s my only critique. I’m sure there was some extra time put in editing adding the voiceover but I would maybe find a happy medium. Add it only in videos that don’t give you the full context of the trades etc. Great episode nonetheless! 👍

    The narration is fine if it's informative. The vintage toy commercials are great. Add fun facts about the item. Most importantly is better video angles to see the toys better. Maybe at the end show close up of key items from the trade in; possibly a missing piece obtained that had completed a toy that will be making to the showcase. I would be interested in seeing some operations behind the scenes once in a while like fixing toys to make them showcase worthy.

    Love your videos so much! Glad to hear you're ditching the narration though. Just focus on better quality audio - the mic signals are often out of phase, gated too hard, or just generally low in quality. Keep it up!

    I look forward to episodes and enjoy learning and seeing such enthusiasm, even though I'm not a toy collector myself per se.
    I recognise the need to expand the audience and change things up, but I'm not enjoying the narration. Please read the room and rethink this.

    I thought the narration last week was just making it like a parody nature video or something. I didn't mind it. I think different narration styles everyone once in a while can be an interesting change of space.

    Hmmm...that's one thing I don't really like about some people...when they are really too talkative! It could be sincere and honest, but in my head I'm thinking: "Could you please shut the hell up for just a brief moment and let me think about it?!" Especially telephone/call center or door-to-door sales people! I really hate their persistence sometimes and especially when they try to socialize or start talking to you like they've known you for years! Just shut up and leave!
