Really fun video, I definitely enjoyed it! Loved that Captain Planet costume and it was amazing seeing those carded Thundercats figures! I'm a huge Thundercats fan and I had a lot of the original toys when I was little, but it's hard to remember them because I was so young. Thanks for sharing such a great video!

This one speaks to me for a couple of reasons. Firstly because the shop is in my home town & it's literally like a 5 min drive away from my house & secondly because I heard about the Palitoy landfill back in like '86 first hand from my Uncle who used to work there. He once brought me 2 bags full of loose Starwars figures & I always remember my Mum asking how/why he had so many. The answer was because they were about to be destroyed, so the employees had the opportunity to take some home. Btw, he also said that the landfill site was near (the then) Granby Halls. Dunno, hopefully somebody with a lot of time and/or money can do something with than info & locate the buried treasure. Anyway, cool video, man.

I'm really impressed with the selection of Starcom and Mighty max. Both loose and packaged samples. Sure these lines did come out in the USA, but you rarely see them here from toy dealers. Probably just not the scale of things you guys collect. Back in the day these pocket toys made for grand adventure play with monsters troops and transports.

Seriously, toy companies, if you want to make money, do like Mattel, make an "origins" of ALL the toy lines you had in the 80s. Visionaries, Bravestarr, Toxic Crusaders, Inhumanoids, Cops N Crooks. They WILL sell, all us collectors want these, but paying todays prices for old toys is bonkers.

its a interesting point the guy was making about girls keeping their toy saved, cause thats the first time i hear this argument myself. it might be a cultural thing but as far as i know my sister and all her friends at the time sold all their toys off fairly early on at fleamarkets already. to add to this argument their is this study that suggests that the reason girls grow up faster compared to men (and men never really mature completely lets be honest here :P ) and the main reason they get rid of their toys early, is cause most of girls toys revolve around emulating something a adult eventually does, so their barbie dolls they dress up, are they themselves that do that, and the plastic play kitchen and barbie dreamhouse, becomes a brickbuild house, and the baby doll toy, becomes a real one. its a bit old fashioned way of looking at it of course but thats the general consences taken from whats average. also the reason men keep playing with their toys since they never become the toys they play with (at least most dont)
