In this video I'm getting a long-awaited look at my friend Matt's collection room, chock-full of action figure goodness, mostly vintage but also some modern. I couldn't miss the opportunity to record a toy room tour as part of my new Aussie Collectors Showcase series.
Matt's toy room is the product of more than 20 years of serious collecting and an inspiration and motivation to a newer collector like me (and I hope others too!). Matt's collection contains a beautiful mix of Masters of the Universe, Ghostbusters, Star Wars, Jurassic Park/Jurassic World, Dr Who, Clash of the Titans and much, much more. One of the amazing things about Matt's collection is the large number of items from his childhood that he still has and displays proudly!
Be sure to check out ‪@keeponcollecting‬ for much more toy goodness!
A huge thank you to Matt for his hospitality and for being a good mate!
Thanks for watching and I hope to hear from you in the comments!

That's a wonderful diverse collection, what a joy to see. Lovely! I loved how Matt's collection grew out of his childhood toys. It was cool to hear him refer to "our" toys - my collection has some stuff donated from my brother as well, and so does his. Please do make more of these, Scott!

@normanguzman417 Жыл бұрын

I enjoy watching this collection. Specifically because it has many obscure lines like the infaceables, Supernaturals, Buck Rogers, Space 1999 and many more. I had to pause the video many times because i keep getting flash backs every time i saw something that i forgot i had as a kid. Each toy was attached to specific memories that where lost and all the sudden came back. I am going to start collecting some old lines my self. Maxx Steele Robo force is one that i had, and still would like to have again.

@ScottCrusher Жыл бұрын

I'm really glad you enjoyed the video Norman! Matt's collection is incredible, I love that it spans the 70s to the 90s as well as modern action figures, and it has everything from the obscure to the pop culture powerhouses. I could have made this video way longer by stopping to cover each shelf and item in detail. I had the pleasure of visiting Matt's place again last month and it was awesome to spend some more time in his collection room. Thanks for supporting Norman!

Think best thing is to if the collector is willing to allow him or her to describe the stuff like if was from his original child hood or later buy n maybe lil info such of these b careful bc they tend to break on this part or make sure U do this or not etc. THX CHEERS!
