Slapping super high prices on all the vintage toys will only result in them sitting there for years and collecting dust. I know the sellers want a good profit but there should be some middle ground. 🤷🏻

Awesome,I've never seen so much expensive nostalgia under one roof😁

I grew up in Rowland Heights and the Wednesday and Saturday trips to Frank & Son were a MUST especially for hard-to-find bootleg dvds, custom tshirt printing, posters and so many collectibles! A great place to go xmas shopping.

THIS PLACE IS SICK!

Kirt, you missed the $7,000 Spider-Man bobble head at 8:16 Great video. I wish we had something like this here.

That is very cool, but the prices are ridiculous. Fun to see things I had back in the day!

Enjoyed all the vintage eye candy, and also the part who you gonna call... yo momma!

A collectible store I would love going to collectible stores 👍🛍️🏬

Very cool; I get extremely overwhelmed seeing anything about collectibles, remembering all of what I used to have growing up, not knowing the future value of today. If only...lol

Holy freaking awesome 🐸🍺🔪🔥

Never heard of Frank and Son's. I live in Vegas. Looks like a really cool store.

That's really awesome! Brings up some many memories. I wish I knew about this place when I visited LA

Thanks for sharing, I’m in So. Cal about once a year, definitely going to check this place out!

I've been going to Frank & Son for years, ever since they were in the old location. This one is definitely bigger and better. It's like a Gen X toy museum. That's really cool seeing the He-Man and WWF action figures. The princes they're asking range from affordable ($40) to unbelievable ($200). These things used to cost a few bucks new in the store, and are basically just plastic and rubber. It's the nostalgia that you're paying for. One thing that's changed is there isn't anymore bootlegs being sold anymore. You used to be able to get them at the old Frank & Son. It was stuff you couldn't find in a proper release. My friend got a Johnny Sokko and His Giant Robot compilation on tape, and I was able to find the '80s Hulk cartoon. My other friend bought a bunch of GI JOE and Transformers cartoons there. We didn't have streaming or anything back then, and I think this stuff has been released on digital now.

Nuke the Fridge was awesome a few years ago. The new Frank and Son's location is more convenient 👍. Biggest toy/ collectible spot in California 🙃👍

Thanks for sharing. I love these 80’s 90’s toys. So many good memories. Greetings from Oceanside California

@ 10:59, guy looks like he's having a blast 😂

Great episode, brother!

That guys funko booth was beyond high on prices 😂

One great place to visit. Not too far from where I live. One thing though, bring enough money cause you ain't leaving with one item only...

Saw Mickey Mantle at the old Frank and Sons. Joe McDonald, "the big nasty" was a sports radio guy that used to hang out there all the time.

Who you gonna all…..your mama !!! Blew a boog on that one😅

Thanks for the tour! Great job as always

Lol…I’ve had so many of these toys when I was kid. Imagine if we all still had them

Very cool. Thank you for giving us a tour.

Cool 😎👍😊😂🤣😂@That 80s volg ✌🏼

Great Video! I went on Saturday with my son! It was great buying Transformers from the guy at the end of the first aisle you went down. The bad thing was the weather and the rain gutters had water rushing down them like a water fall! I got soaked walking to my car because hey who needs an umbrella in LA right?

This is amazing. I live in So-Cal and never heard of this. I wish I had kept my 80s toys. Those prices are crazy!!!

Thanks, that was amazing. I would find myself there every paycheck, I’m sure. The prices are high though. One day they will detach from them and accept much less. Glad to see a place like this exists.

I go to this place every once in a while in case I've missed anything. This new location is great too because it's near the Back to the Future mall

When it comes to signings, Danny De La Paz is like Virgil (RIP) he pops up any and everywhere

Really enjoyed this. Thank you for taking us there.

So much nostalgia there.

Thanks for the Video, btw, Danny De La Paz starred in American Me and Boulevard Nights.

The Commando figure was also in the display case. Just watched it over the weekend 😍

I wish we had a place like that

I actually seen the bike I had🔥

I could spend so much money in that place. So much cool 80s stuff.

Hell ya, I grew up in La puente until 6th grade… the back to the future mall shot! ✌️❤️

Recently visited for the first time and discovered it's directly across the freeway from the infamous BTTF filming location at Puente Hills Mall

The pandemic had a positive side affect on the collectible card trade 💯 🙋

Wow, I didn't know that they moved. I would go on Wednesday nights mostly, but Saturdays were cool...

Frank and Son's was awesome. I've never been to the newer one.

I thought that place was abandoned, I would always see it with an empty parking lot when I would drive by it. Good to know that it's not.

Live down the street used to be better now its more commercial and bobble head at every corner. Old frank and sons was wayyy better had more of a indy hidden place feeling.

You should have got Lurch’s autograph at 9:48 😂

About 3 years ago I took my nephew there and he bought a whole box of gpk for like 75 bucks.

Those funkopops are so expensive in America! I buy those for less than 20 dollars (17 euro) at the local Large.

Happiest place on Earth! Thank you

Ain't nobody buying those pops!.

That building was an old Toys R Us store. That’s why the big sign is in side

I need to make it to this one day! Man what’s happened to southern California weather? You guys are getting as much rain as Florida now!

I had that blue BMX Bike with white mag wheels around 6:39 in the late 1980s

Need something like this place in boring Illinois

I remember watching someone do an interview here with Cory haim

Wow

Usually prices at franks are decent because there’s a lot of competition at franks. Once in a while there’s a unicorn and it’s super expensive. There’s one particular dealer who has tons of older toys, but their prices are ridiculous. (They are right up front) and although I like looking at their items I have never bought from them

I visited the old location a couple of times back in the mid 2010s when I lived in LA. This new location still looks like a Sam's Club but with toys lol

5:22 emergency lunchbox had it too!

How fun Let’s go

I'm sorry will say a prayer.

Maximum overdrive great movie i also have a tattoo from it. I was always a GI joe collector anything action figures really 80s 90s

@froggyflips needs to go to cali for a trip!

Interesting but those prices are crazy. I can't imagine almost anyone people paying those prices. You'd have to look through the whole store just to buy your one favorite thing. Then you'd might forget where it was and just leave.

16:35 Pee-Wee's Playhouse lunchbox is $15 on Ebay. You weren't kidding about the prices there...highway robbery

Danny De La Paz was NOT in Blood In Blood Out! He was Chuco from VGV in Boulevard Nights & Big Puppet from American Me & Road Dogs

Didn't see any Robotech but then again I'm only 3/4 of the way through the video..... 💯 🤔

9:19 that was hilarious!!!!

I actually have been going to FnS since before their last location. They were a trucking and warehousing company and held their “show” in the extra warehouse space. It was the go to place for my friends and I in the mid-90’s when playing/collecting some of the various trading card games. I live about 3 hours from there now so I’ve only been to the new place twice. Do the lines still wrap around the parking lot when it first opens?

Amazing. How long have they been in business doing this?

I don't see how you can stop people from stealing those trading cards. In Portland OR, very few would be left.

I purchased that TRU sign and sold it to the person who owns it now.

Wow thats too expensive, Im not paying those prices

I had the bike that the covers on the wheels, but it got to a point to many of the plastic nuts/bolts came off so I had to take them off.

You would have to pay me $4,500, to take a LeBron doll!

reminds me of daze with jordan

Great prices. Thankfully he didn't let a little thing called inflation, get in the way of us nostalgics, Oh wait ..

you miss the $7,000 Spider-Man funko

Awesome place and video. If there is a place like this in Michigan someone please let me know. Cali is too far. Great video too bro

its a tour site now for un knowledged collectors just a place to visit

I would not pay more than $10 bucks for a funko

You tube 80 Lilfe channel Love my favorite one fan BIG Toy 80 Love my favorite one fan BIG 💖💖💖💖💖💖

I had a dukes of hazzard and chips lunch boxes. I wouldn't pay a penny for those funko pops, they're so ugly. Someone gave me the cheshire cat one once, and I gave it to someone else. They don't look anything like what tney're supposed to, and they all look alike. People started buying them for the sole purpose of having something to make a video about. They're just a waste of money and space, they're never going to be worth anything. Im glad companies started making action figures from older movies and series, though. The 1/6 scale ones like hottoys are insanely over-priced, though. But then what isn't these days. Lot's of cool vintage stuff in there, though! Love to have an 80's surviver bmx bike.

I’m sad that Toys “R” Us has to Closed for Business

That was cool! Really nice tour!

I have been wanting to go there. Do they have any lounge fly backpacks

What Vector Hold song did you use in your intro?

Peewee lunchbox in good shape for 20 bucks on ebay

Thanks for showing the prices.

It was a toys r us

It used to be great prices

How much is one of those Hosoi skateboards? I have always wanted one, but never got it. I rode a Tony Hawk and a Mark Gonzalez for a long time.

Where is this frank & sons at?

I miss GPK and MadBalls! I've never been big on anime too but I love Studio Ghibli and Hatoro Miyazaki 🙏

Are those bmx bikes for sale?

Maximum overdrive

That is pretty cool 😎

Thanks for showing this. I was interested, but dang those prices are nuts! A beat up and headless Voltron red light for $90!???

love that quote who you gonna call your momma jajaja cheers kurt from mexicali baja california

Thanks for sharing your visit there. I assume those Thrashin' figures are custom? Don't recall ever seeing those. One reason for card prices increasing (sports & non-sports) is due to grading and flipping during covid. Those places end up just being window shopping. They can shove those prices up their arses. I still have some loose Karate Kommandos, Karate Kid and Rambo figures for great prices!
