Everytime I see a California Raisins toy product, I'm reminded about the quality of McDonald's toys from the 90's. I think McDonald's did push out Raisins toys in their Happy Meals.

I saw a lot of great figures. Thanks

They were a bit before my time, but they were always something I knew of and had seen around. Pop culture - before the internet age allowed for extreme compartmentalization of interests - had a way of trickling down and permeating to generations that weren't just the generations of the era. That's why it's always bugged me when older people would say "You know about blank! You're too young to know about blank!" As if the interests of their time are just frozen forever in that time...like younger people aren't exposed to different eras of music, film, TV, books, comics, etc through their parents and grandparents and just general cultural osmosis. I always loved stop motion animation and "claymation" as a kid so I was always really charmed by the California Raisins. And I don't have a massive collection or anything, but if I see one of the little PVC figures floating around a thrift store of vintage store I pick 'em up because they're just such a window into American culture. And the "band" itself is a really good cover band of classic tunes. I'll legit listen to their albums utterly unironically for good renditions of great songs.

enjoyed video, im originally from western pa so that's pretty cool. whats the best place to find these local shows or local stores?

It was a great show ! Glad I ran into you and got to chat for a little bit. I was so pumped I got that build a figure PITT figure I showed you out in the parking lot before we left ! Great episode as always !

Dash Rendars “Moldy Crow” 😂 that's Kyle Katarns ship. Dude loves Star Wars and 3d prints dioramas but hey ask him about the time Anakin Skywalker blew up the death star! 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Great talking toys with you Matt, Thanks for the heads up on the Dukes items. See you again soon!

Great video!

I was there on Sunday and I found a star wars landspeeder,Skeletor action figure,2 other star wars stuff and some hot wheels and I just subscribed to your channel

Although I had to watch it in 3 sections, it was another great toy video sir. Pesky family kept interfering with my toy time. 😂 Some great KOs and carded toys at that show. Those Super Powers were like new man and that Nicholson card was sick. Great grab. Thanks Matt.

Thanks for the video! I need one of those blue batmobiles

Wonderful pick ups and very kind gesture by passing along the Wonderful Bread He-Man. It’s quite uplifting to know that there are still some good people out there.

LOL

Your videos is the next best thing to time travel 😎. I remember all of these toys like it was yesterday ….. I’m so mad at myself for opening and losing most of these as a kid haha. I’d be rich now!

That Knock Out Joker is currently around $250! You got a steal of a deal there! Congrats! I've seen the cardback alone without the figure sell for around 50-60 bucks. Great work w the video, love your channel!

Your channel is making me get back into collecting retro toys, and it's really not helping my wallet.

Glad I was able to make it out this year. Great pick-ups by all and it was great hanging out with everyone during setup, dinner and morning of the show. As always Matt, you captured it all!

Was nice meeting we had a great time hope you enjoy you're Halloween figures we will see you next year

Nice pick-ups! Super Powers is such a great line, one of my faves. MOC Robin is one of my grails...

SUPERPOWER!

Wow, what a video. Hey, it's good to see you getting more Super Powers figures. That's one of my favorite figure lines too. I didn't even know about Supernaturals Lionwings until this video. What a cool figure. I think you did great at this expo. You found such a variety of things. I wish I could have been there with you.

its so strange that in the biggest toy show you wont see vintage TYCO, Nikko or Radio Shack Toy RC Cars, and they where such a huge deal back then, I think Chad is the only ''Toy Collector'' that has some, that iv seen,

Dont you get in early and you get most of the good deals before they open to the public though?.

Great video yet again! So many deals there but that Lionwing from supernaturals is a great piece! Would be cool to know what all you sold off at that last show and see your insights from the others side of collecting.

Matt, as always, it was great traveling with you to and through the show and seeing you and your friends picking up things for your collections. I don' think the average show-attendee realizes the time and effort it takes to set up for a show, and the work it involves in displaying large and small items showcasing their value, attractiveness, and rarity. And as I have said before, if you know of any friends or dealers who would like to purchase a rather large collection of Garbage Pail Kids cards, toys, and items, please let me know. Thanks. Rock on brother.

Happy to hear the Savage/Wonder Bread He Man story. Thanks for being so thorough in these videos, we don’t have shows like this in my area. You can tell that you, Chad, Sasho, Kelly and Greg are fantastic people. Great pickup with that Super Naturals Lion. Absolutely beautiful.

Great Video buddy keepup the good work, always a great watch !! 💯

Hey Chad! Try and contain the excitement in these video openings! Lol

Matt, do you feel like the show was as good as past years?

That is nice of you to drive Chad ... seems like a very mellow fellow .. Enjoy the Toys :)

literaly yelling at you at 25:17 buy me that ha,

lmao we have the same Soundwave shirt! 😹

Hey Chad hay Matt, First!

If you don't have a '66 Batmobile Johnny @ Giant Ma's got one (maybe two!!)

Wooaah! SO MANY WRESTLERS!!!

L'm certain they'll break the glass on the next trip!!

RE: Busted showcase legs... Just set a couple of MIB Star Wars playsets under there as a shim... works like magic!!

Setting up your Toy Room!! This should be fun!! (Better luck than the last guy I watched ... screwed up his shelves in what seemed like the first 5 mins. ...!!)

I just found this video as well as your KZfaq page. New Subscriber, Btw. Yeah, I can sympathize with you. I grew up in Steubenville, Ohio and now reside in Erie, Pa. When I go back home to visit my remaining family, I get sad to see how a lot of places, from better times, are now gone. Our old mall is practically dead and the Hills Department Store...😥 It's been gone forever. I feel the "technology" in the 21st century helped push this change even further.

Neat HULK bank... HULK CASH!!

Re: REissue vs. Vintage... Nope no nostalgia dust and sews confusion @ the Flea Mkt.....!!

I wish I could recommend a good local Hot Dog place but the Coney Island (Downtown) closed... Now you can probably grill up a better dog yourself @ home!!

Matt, just watched your trip to Butler and through I'd sub to your channel!! Cool stuff, the Butler trip blew my mind!! Lots of stuff that came out when I was @ Slippery Rock so Im interested in mostly 60s and 70s stuff, but largely Silver /Bronze comics I'd love to locate the Hot Wheels Batmobiles... they never show....!!Thanks for the show on John & Giant Man... also VERY Cool!!

Sad that Flea markets and yard sales will never be as good as they were before Ebay

Bounty Hunter’s Emporium is the spot for vintage toys in Myrtle Beach the next time you’re there! 👍🏼

This is near me ,but have never been.

Sweet scores. As shown on Insta. 😂 Hope it doesn’t cost you an arm and leg to complete your Socket Poppers. Liked that Wolfman and Frank puzzle graphic. Glad it all worked out brother. Thanks for the video.

That Ninja gaiden background music 🎶 is giving me flashbacks 😅

Great video! A lot of items shown grabbed my attention as a collector.

I believe you missed row M, table 26 but other than that great video bro! That motu knockoff stuff is 🤌🤌 and some minty turtles too!
