Awesome I made the cut! It was a pleasure finally getting to meet Joe and Matt & Billy! 🙌 Italy has a ton of great vintage toys and you guys snagged away so many good stuff 😜🤘 Let’s go back soon!
I love the Toy show cross pollenization going on these days. 5 mins into this video and I had to stop for a breather. Micronauts Red Falcon in box…. Come on. All of it mind blowing😮
What makes this show is so great is it kind of bridges the gap between network television shows and TH-cam channels it feels like the perfect mix of both.
Back in the early 80s I had a set of weird European miniature figures that I'd bought in a discount shop. Tried for years to find them again but never knew who the characters were until I saw this episode. Turns out they were a Captain Harlock set that included Doctor Zero and his cat. A 40 year old mystery solved, thanks guys!
This was a great video. The Italians are a lovely bunch, by the looks of it. And so many toys. That Hulk Billy had in his hand, was interesting. Have to compliment Matt on his camera work, and production of the videos. Joe always has a smile on his face, which is great to see. Who wouldn't, if your business is toys. What a job to have. And not forgetting about the warehouse in the beginning. What a treasure trove of stuff. Thanks guys. Was a really fun watch.
Super video, really fascinating to see a very different approach to doing deals - their prices seemed very firm, yet they quickly realised they could get deals from you! Cheeky! Think I need to go back and watch part 1 again...
Leo’s Underground lair? Some turtles might be interested in that! Been excited for part 2! I remember seeing your trip round Europe and seeing Leo’s amazing lair before, excellent to see it again!
This was absolutely a treat to watch! Loved every minute of it, and Billy was a great addition! You 3 collaborated so well. Hilarious and just a good fun show to sit back and enjoy after a long tough week. We all love toys here and thanks for sharing the awesome journey. Cheers 🍻
Brilliant video, superb quality editing and content as always. Thank you for making these top quality interesting toy videos so much better than anything on tv or TH-cam previously- well done 🙏
When I went to Italy years ago, I tried looking for toy shops and only managed to find an antique shop with some toys in them. I wanted to find some European toys to take home, but I didn't find any. It looks like they've moved on from no shops to actual toy shows. Great to see that! Great video showcasing this! Always interesting to see what toy shows look like outside the US.
Really great show! Glad I had a brief word with you and Billy at Star Wars Celebration on the Monday! Hoping for more vids like this! Great work and very enjoyable!
Ah you had a Gatchaman God Phoenix II DX in hand and I just asked you about one without knowing you'd seen one! How spooky is that! We tended to get the smaller one here, the PB-73, that was an incredibly clean PB-72 you were looking at...
Awesome video ! I love those atlantic figures! Was cool to see ed ! 😊 I would love to visit leo lair! I live n the states but I'm from venezia originally😊
I've enjoyed both parts - "everyday is a school day" rings so true. Hope you do a part 3 as a conclusion for this with Johnathan Ross. Me personally am after a box for a 1966 Ideal Captain Action & a good condition Six Million Dollar Man laboratory amongst other things. 🌞🤔😎🙌👍
Awesome stuff!!!!! Some amazing pieces there wow!!!!!! Really entertaining video. And brilliant to see Eds retro geek out! Big fan of his channel. Love it!ile give it 5 😍🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😉😅👍👍👍👍👍
Truly wonderful stuff. The production value of this episode is incredible - huge kudos to all involved in making it. I did spy a very quick glimpse of a Laurel and Hardy toy - is that an Easter egg for Matt”s documentary?
It was almost a purchase… but being a hand made Italian toy from the 30’s they were quite pricey… he did get the Chump At Oxford Italian film poster though and it’s up in the edit suite! Thanks for watching ✊
I mean... Does Leo have a warehouse size store somewhere?!? Please tell me he has an ebay store? That is SO much stock! 😅 Another absolute belter as always guys, all the best for the upcoming year, it's definitely on my New Year list to get down South and see your place finally!
Initially it was Inspector Gadget that caught my eye, but then my subliminal brain kicked in and ID'D an incomplete (as displayed) Dai-X from Star Fleet / X-Bomber - not all that surprising as Joe sourced mine from Italy on the first Toy Shop on Tour! Blink and you'll miss it! 47:43
Thought I'd comment on your most recent video but just wanted to say I've been going back through ALL of them over Christmas and they really have been a joy to watch whilst having a baileys and some cheese. Props to the production team behind it!
Just sat down with my fish finger sandwich and spotted this! Life doesn’t get better 😂 oh actually life does get better, visiting that warehouse would be better. Micronauts and Jeeg heaven!!!
@@leicestervintagetoyshop I’m still watching and there’s so much eye candy, the Micronauts, lobros, the Mazinger shogun warrior. I need to save up to go to Italy 😂 you should look for the clear version of the Magnemo Jeeg, its beautiful
Great show guys, looks like you had a blast. Need to get over to Leicester and see if any of those pick ups made it to the shop. Also got an Asterix point of sale display Joe might be interested in 😄. Hope there’s more TSOT for 2024 🤞
As a fellow bald headed,spectacle wearer, I need to know what designer bins you wear. They’re awesome. Great channel fellas and as a 43 year old toy nut, it’s right up my street. Cheers!
1:17:23. Looking at Gav on the scarf with Joe it makes me wonder why Gav was put on the merchandise when he left the business relatively quickly after to open his own shop.
You had me at Micronauti! And Voltron, and Jeeg and Atlantic... I think I'll go and have a lie down... The Mego Flash Gordon set looked pretty cool, not my thing, but nice! Did you get the Red Falcon? If you're not keeping it you may be getting a call from an interested party. When are you next open..? Well done on the Shogun, broken or not! PS: DON'T diss MISTER Dean! He's a close personal friend and a little ill tempered. 😂
That Big Jim Tiger, was that cage included with its price? I grew up with Big Jim toys, my first one (if not so, one of my first toys) and favorite was the great figure Dr. Steel. Other favorite of mine is the Matchbox Fighting Furies' The Ghost of Cap'n Kidd. Greetings from The Netherlands!
First the Baltan in part 1, now Miclas in this video. You seem to run into Ultraman monsters a lot on this trip. A little extra trivia, Miclas was one of several Capsule Monsters UltraSeven (and other later Ultramen) carried in small capsules and released tthem as aids in fights. The creator of Pokemon has cited them as inspiration.
At one of these shows you can spend thousands of euros but you can also get loads of enjoyment collecting on a smaller budget. Much joy is found out of a £1 rummage box 👍
Really great episode. Also liked matts footwork trying to keep the guy out of shot that kept poking his head around youbon day 2 of the toy fair. Haha.
Missing Gav. Who's gonna show us the Care Bears and the odd baby-dolls? Always appreciate Joe's childlike wonder and Matt's fantastic production work though.
Awesome I made the cut! It was a pleasure finally getting to meet Joe and Matt & Billy! 🙌 Italy has a ton of great vintage toys and you guys snagged away so many good stuff 😜🤘 Let’s go back soon!
Nice one Ed, happy toy hunting in 2024!

Hello Ed, you pop up everywhere. 😆 🍻
We need to do that for sure!
Matt rockin' the Kubrick pin badge I designed 🤘
It was super fun hanging out with you guys! I hope to see you again soon.
You too Billy, hope you like what we did with it? “I’m too big for this lift” is out in the Spring 😂
Us too! Those are pillows!!
suscribed. thanks for adding your class to the amazeballs that is TSOT!

Thanks for watching! We love ❤️ Italy so much. It’s a great place to buy toys as well as being a great place to visit
I didn't know just how popular the 70's manga was in Italy. Who knew so much TIger Mask stuff was sitting in Europe?
It’s hugely popular and an education every time we go
What a great video.
Love to see Jonathan on one of these trips with Billy!
Wouldn’t that be something!
That would be awesome!
Great idea!
@@SpoonJarFilms would be great viewing to see Jonathan in Japan! sort of "Our man in Japan" covering toys, anime, gaming etc.
@@alanzyoutubehe did a series of television programmes back in the 80's about such things if I recall correctly
Those Italians have odd collectibles when one is a rubber glove .. i think that may sit for a while lol :)
this channel is becoming my equivalent of the antiques road show. Its great.
Thanks very much
OMG 😮 That storage space. I can't even imagine what that must have been like
I didn't want this one to end. Great, as ever, chaps. Look forward to more collabs with Galaxy!
More to come! Billy was great fun
The Ulysses 31 toys are amazing, good show
Thanks for watching!
Just when you think the bar cannot be raised any further, you go and do this. Well done gang. Brilliant.
Thanks Rob!
Thanks very much!
Great adventure …..thanks for

Innit! Sorting some U.K. stuff for later this year so he can come with us.

Thanks for watching!!
Super video, really fascinating to see a very different approach to doing deals - their prices seemed very firm, yet they quickly realised they could get deals from you! Cheeky! Think I need to go back and watch part 1 again...
Well I needed the money to get us home! 😂😂
Yes, long way to walk back! @@leicestervintagetoyshop
Leo’s Underground lair? Some turtles might be interested in that! Been excited for part 2! I remember seeing your trip round Europe and seeing Leo’s amazing lair before, excellent to see it again!
I want/need to go back!
I’m waiting for you 👍
Mind blowing that Italian warehouse ❤😂
Thanks Jon! Hopefully see you in Malta at some point soon!
I could watch these all day... every day.
Ah thanks what a lovely comment
Of all the Go Nagai robot designs Grendizer is my favourite, I even remember seeing it on TV one Saturday back in the 80's.
This was so good we'll done guys it was fun to watch and educational as well more more more please.
New Gioco Hulk!

So cool to see you and Billy Galaxy are friends. I found out about who he was from documentary about how stores were copying during lockdown.
He’s a great guy is Billy

GREAT episodes (part 1 & 2) and I sincerely mean this - I got more entertainment from these than Oppenheimer!
Well take that sir!
Them Ulysses 31 toys 😍 Another great episode here, lads.
I know…… such lovely toys and absolutely mint as well.
Ah you had a Gatchaman God Phoenix II DX in hand and I just asked you about one without knowing you'd seen one! How spooky is that! We tended to get the smaller one here, the PB-73, that was an incredibly clean PB-72 you were looking at...
Fantastic editing job Matt!
He’s done his usual amazing work! Man is a legend!
Thank you, lovely to hear
Great video, that Gi Joe display stand is epic Joe.
Thanks very much! Just need to find somewhere to put it now!

I would love to visit leo lair! I live n the states but I'm from venezia originally😊
So many great toys in Italy!🇮🇹
@leicestervintagetoyshop yuuuuup....collecting is less popular than in the usa but seems like is picking Up in italy too..
Len's ( Lem's !? ) vintage chogokin stand was blowing my mind all video, I also would've gone berserk looking at those goodies.
It was really crazy!
Len 👍 yes that stall was quite something!!😊
SPECKLED JIM!!!!
Awesome video. You really have to travel to find the good stuff.
You got that right!
Joe buying Micronauti?! Between you & Mr Ross I got no chance! Clearly need to pop to Italy, great episode, Happy New Year chaps
Italy is amazing! Micronauti everywhere!
you guys have the best rapport and vibes, come for the toys stay for the smiles!
I sang that 😂
I've enjoyed both parts - "everyday is a school day" rings so true. Hope you do a part 3 as a conclusion for this with Johnathan Ross.
Me personally am after a box for a 1966 Ideal Captain Action & a good condition Six Million Dollar Man laboratory amongst other things. 🌞🤔😎🙌👍

Another joy of a video guys, I could watch this stuff everyday coming home after work!. Hat's off, and I loved Gav's cameo! Again, thanks for the fun!
Thanks Dennis!
My only toy collecting grail is to one day own a Harbert carded figure. Always a pleasure to watch lads!
There’s something about that logo!
Another great one!
Thanks again!
Love these trips. Cheers for sharing guys

I speak a little Italian, so when she said 1000 euros my jaw dropped.
Yeah but such a cool figure!

@@leicestervintagetoyshop will do. What are you using? FB, X , WhatsApp or Insta??
@@PHealey1981 insta or Facebook best 👍
Pretty amazing stuff lots of childhood memories of so many toys when I lived in Italy. Always fun watching your videos
Thank you!
1:17:23. Looking at Gav on the scarf with Joe it makes me wonder why Gav was put on the merchandise when he left the business relatively quickly after to open his own shop.
It all happened quite quickly this summer. Merch was already in production. However Gav will be back to do some U.K. stuff with us later this year. 👍
@@leicestervintagetoyshop Matt the Camera Man needs to be on the next batch of merchandise! I want Joe and Matt on a tea towel!
@@ben8447 😂
this is class
Thanks very much!
Fantastic 2 shows guys
Thanks very much!
PS I was just searching Lobros when Billy picked one up and that's just weird.
I am always watching you...🤣
I was trying to work put who Billy Galaxy reminded me of and it's Woody from Toy Story! He's like a real life version! 😂
You had me at Micronauti! And Voltron, and Jeeg and Atlantic... I think I'll go and have a lie down...
The Mego Flash Gordon set looked pretty cool, not my thing, but nice! Did you get the Red Falcon? If you're not keeping it you may be getting a call from an interested party. When are you next open..?
Well done on the Shogun, broken or not!
PS: DON'T diss MISTER Dean! He's a close personal friend and a little ill tempered. 😂
Thursday-Saturday 9-4 speak soon!
Great video, amazing figs, shogun warriors is amazing 😊
Yes they are!
Great Vid and A Happy new year

Oh my God, I want to go to there.
Mate, you’d love it!! We need to make that happen!
@@leicestervintagetoyshop We totally do, I'm not only a fan of their toys but the cinema as well. Also, I really like it there.
1:03:49 Big Jim, known as Kid Acero in Mexico, was equally as insanely popular!
Top man Pete, Kid Acero sounds somewhat cooler!
What a fantastic video. Loved every second of it.
I never want these to end. Can't wait for the next one.
Have a great new year guys!
Thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed the show!
Love this great job guys
Thanks Roger!
The infamous Action Force Shadowtrak makes another appearance!
Waiting for you to buy it still!
Love this series it's joyous watching it. Did you buy the God Phoenix? It looked amazing.
We did not sadly. It’s an amazing toy but was just a little over budget
its amazing the money on the stuff
At one of these shows you can spend thousands of euros but you can also get loads of enjoyment collecting on a smaller budget. Much joy is found out of a £1 rummage box 👍
Really great episode. Also liked matts footwork trying to keep the guy out of shot that kept poking his head around youbon day 2 of the toy fair. Haha.
Ha ha that’s Charlie. He’s a lovely fella and the guy in the scarf at the end. He has a few cameos throughout.
@@SpoonJarFilmshaha he seemed it to be fair. I love the end shot of you all linking arms with the jump and heel click like the wizard of oz.
@@danielpartridge5852 yeah you got it! Nice one
1:14:13 I know this toy? I grew up watching Grendizer in Arabic version when I was a kid.
Shogun warrior! That’s amazing. Which country? Thanks for watching!
@@leicestervintagetoyshop From Libya, I have so many toys collection in my house.
That Master Man was funny as hell😂
Enjoyed it.
Missing Gav. Who's gonna show us the Care Bears and the odd baby-dolls? Always appreciate Joe's childlike wonder and Matt's fantastic production work though.
Gav we hope will be back for some U.K. stuff soon 👍
You were only supposed to take the doors off... to fit more toys in the van!
Ha ha love it!
Would you say that Italian show is as big as the famous Doncaster one?
Probably less stalls but a lot better. Different gravy. As Billy said a huge amount of vintage compared to other shows.
