Very very jealous, its, fantastic that your doing something you love... Its, always been a dream of mine to open a shop! Congratulations and I wish you all the wealth and happiness!!!
You did it Randy, every kids dream. You get to surround yourself with what you love and that it AWESOME. Best wishes and the best of luck from southern Ontario, gonna have to visit someday soon, James
Just put a monster energy drink in the chair when Bryan isn’t there... Ooo add a monster energy drink cooler in the store. Shame they’re still not a sponsor. Congrats on the store wish tons of success all the way from California
Looks amazing Randy! Now YOU get to make memories for kids (and adults), as they shop! I saw a picture of your store with some bicycles parked out front...it was what a toy store should look like.
I think you did everything right. A clean layout, merchandise that's easy to see and organized, a variety of toys, good hours of operation, visible from the road, and a cool owner who knows his stuff. I see a winner here. The only negative thing is that you don't have a location in my town, lol. Cool video.
Store looks amazing, Randy. You have so many great things in there that I'm interested in - Gobots, MUSCLE, Joes to name a few. I need to plan a road trip to Michigan the next time I'm up in Ohio. Great stuff, and I wish you the absolute best of luck with your store!!
Epic! Thanks for the shoutout! More decals and other surprises will be on their way in the future. Nothing says eclectic store like RATT cassettes next to a Care Bears Walkman! People don't carry change anymore! Old school change machine would take up way too much room. Those were HUGE! GoBots on the top shelf and deservedly so! Road trip is a must! Love dollar bin treasures! Looks awesome.
Stopped in yesterday and this place is awesome. I've seen more stuff in this video than when I was there in person. Lol. I'll be back up there this weekend.
Congratulations! Wish i lived close im all the way in canada but a big fan of your channel. Its stores like these that keep the flame alive! Wish you guys the best!
Randy! Dude, love that shop so much. Can't wait to see more updates. I had a pretty slamming idea. I dont know if your already planning something like this but itd be so awesome to walk around the store and listen/ see cartoons and vintage commercials for toys playing. Who wouldn't want to shop for MOTU figures and hear the theme song playing in the background. I'm really happy for you man. Congratulations.
Randy, this is a huge achievement! The store looks awesome and I could easily spend hours there if I lived in Michigan. LOL Wishing you great success! And now I'm starting to wonder... was Brian just in our minds all along? Is this a Fight Club situation?
Man that is awesome! Looks great! Store looks like it has been in business forever with all of that sweet inventory. Definitely will stop in if I get up that way. Support Nerdout if you are in the area people.
Ciaran Kilmartin Thanks! They’re $25 plus shipping if ya want one. I wish they were a little cheaper. Next t-shirt run will be bigger and hopefully cheaper
That looks great. I wish you all the best and success. Bad luck that i don't live in the states. But i like your videos very much. Good luck and greetings from Germany.
I feel so sad for you Randy... all alone. I’ve got some time off for a while (out of work with a herniated disk in my back... old 45-year-old I guess). I would love to road trip and hang out...Talk toys... maybe buy a Knerdout tee! I’ll check my calendar! Love the shop layout, BTW! I hope you are super successful!
I know... replying to my own comment... If I visit, I would want you to draw a K on the front of the Nerdout on the T-shirt and sign it for me! KNERDOUT!!
Hey I have an idea what about painting the ceiling tiles black and the grid green, it'll add some contrast and uniform to the store front. overall it looks awesome and if I live in Michigan I'd be a regular
Killer store man! I would love to have a store like this near me. You need more of a DC presence! People love the POP figures, I personally don't get it but hey, to each his own. I wish you all the success man!
Was just checking out Oak Park on Google Maps. Your store is in the midst of an ocean of suburbia! They are really fond of their grid layouts in America, arent they. I guess it's the most logical way. Here in NZ there isnt as many vast flat areas, so our street-plans are more organic. Oak Park seems nice enough.. hopefully it's not one of the run-down areas of Detroit. Your store looks fantastic, and I hope you get some loyal customers. Maybe you could look into getting a fibreglass statue on the roof, or something eye-catching like that. Or maybe that would be too cheesy for your nice classy storefront. Anyway, best of luck!
Drew Lovelyhell Thanks! Yes. Grids are common. This is a nice area and they are just finishing up a huge project of redoing all the roads and putting in pop up parks. Very nice. I got in at a good time.
Dude seriously I am glad you did this video so now I know I need to save up a few bucks( and quarters for those gumball machines) and get on the road to visit your awesome store!
Looking Awsome! I'm from the UK and if you should ever ship to the UK via web store you'll have my loyalty as a customer. As for your t shirts Nerdout is cool ! Hey maybe Brian could do a little comic section! It's an incredible opportunity and I wish you all the best.
I’m on holiday sadly so I can’t watch this video till next Tuesday. Can’t wait to see the store. Are you gonna have an online presence us UK fans can buy from you.
thunderfeet I currently have a landing page and I hope to get shop exclusives I can sell online. That’s going to be a little further down the road. Stay tuned! Thanks!!
Damn, your store would be the go to spot unfortunately, I live in Cali. Can we buy online? I’m eyeballing almost all of the store especially the Star Wars Micro Machine’s.
One last question - you guys gonna be at TFCon? I saw you both there last year briefly. I recognized your faces, but couldn't realize why. Then it dawned on me, but didn't want to bug ya hehe. You all were checking out the display cases.
Bruman you should have definitely said hi! We were planning on going however this sudden opening of a toy store sort of forced me to cancel. Hopefully next one. We had so much fun last time!
How come I never knew about this? Do you work there? Do you have employees? Did you quit your day job? I hope you get tons of customers.. starting up a specialty store like that is a big gamble. I'd love to come in and max out my credit card.
First off, the store looks amazing, I really like it. Shouldn't it be GEEKOUT thought? Nerd stuff would be math and science related, maybe some calculus books or a telescope.
@@knerdout4601 Wow, that is a lot. I know a guy who has successfully run a toy store like yours for many years and that's how he got started, also - selling several items from his own collection.
@@knerdout4601 Sorry, I meant "how much" as in "percentage of your store". Like is it 90% new stock, or like 50% of it is you selling older parts of your collection, etc. I'm an older collector too, been selling lots of stuff on eBay the past few years, heh.

Love the shop and the setup, wish there was a store like that here
Well done 👍
Looks really good ! I now have a reason for a road trip. Much Respect from Montreal, Canada.
If I lived there that’d be my new hangout. I wish I had a store like that in my town.
Sweet set-up, my son and I will definately have to stop by and check it out.
Awesome ..... would be great to see yu guys ... oh give Brian a job 👍
Stopped in yesterday and this place is awesome. I've seen more stuff in this video than when I was there in person. Lol. I'll be back up there this weekend.

Awesome! Looking good, man, I'd love to visit!
Nice shop. Best of luck to you.
Congratulations! Wish i lived close im all the way in canada but a big fan of your channel. Its stores like these that keep the flame alive! Wish you guys the best!
Last time I watched you were in the man cave basement now a full toy store?! Crazy, store looks awesome though, love the layout.
On the off-chance I'm ever in the US and anywhere near Detroit, I'd absolutely visit and spend some money here, what a fantastic toy store.
Congratulations!

K J Ha!! Wait a minute! Would Brian really be the Brad Pitt version of me though? Lol
Store looks great, man. Wish I could visit.
Awesome looking store , hope i can visit someday . Congrats on everything man
BEST OF LUCK TO YOU GUYS!
I wish your store was somewhere close to my area. You have a better selection then any toy store within 500 miles of me, if not further.
Awesome shop man 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Man I love everything about this, exactly the kind of store I could spend way too much time and money in.
Congrats on the shop, man! It looks great! You must be super psyched.
Eric Morneau Thanks! Very much so!
Best wishes - beautiful store. The nerds in your town are very lucky. :)
Woah thats really awesome!
Looks great, Randy!
Brad Walker Thanks!
Man that is awesome! Looks great! Store looks like it has been in business forever with all of that sweet inventory. Definitely will stop in if I get up that way. Support Nerdout if you are in the area people.

Congratulations Randy I will be there very soon and I'll bring a paycheck for sure
Gotta visit Windsor and cross the border to check out the store
Love the green. Best of luck. So want a T Shirt
Ciaran Kilmartin Thanks! They’re $25 plus shipping if ya want one. I wish they were a little cheaper. Next t-shirt run will be bigger and hopefully cheaper
Def want one but gotta be small I’m only little ❤️
That looks great. I wish you all the best and success. Bad luck that i don't live in the states. But i like your videos very much. Good luck and greetings from Germany.

Great store! Where are the hot wheels, matchbox and car stuff for us car nerds? Good luck with your venture.
Glenn Hales I actually have a bunch but I haven’t had the chance to go through them just yet
Randy love the new chapter man. I will be ordering my shit from you sir. Hope Brian is okay. He is always with us.
Way to go on the store, I hope you make enough to keep the lights on!
Greg Armstrong Me too!!! Lol
This is so DOPE !
Your store is awesome man! I will visit you very soon! I’ve been looking for cool toy collectibles stores in Michigan!
Gaks20TV Awesome! Thanks
Sweet Christmas next time I'm down that way I'll stop by I'm in Pontiac

Amazing job man, if I was there I’d just buy something “just cus” may need to get one of them shirts!!
Awsome
I wish you success
Dude seriously I am glad you did this video so now I know I need to save up a few bucks( and quarters for those gumball machines) and get on the road to visit your awesome store!

@@InfoStrike
😬.....go to a comic book store. I love comics, but don't collect them anymore. There's _too many_ of em. I want more figure stores.
Store looks great. Have you thought about putting the inventory of your store online?
renegadebiker24 I’m working on expanding to online. It’s going to take a little time but it is in the works
@@knerdout4601 That is great. Maybe try to see how Dallas Vintage Toys does their setup to give you some ideas.
So bloody cool mate! Wish I could support you but it’s a little far from Downunder lol. Wishing you all the best my friend.
11 to 7...the required business hours for "comic book" stores. The mid shift is _the_ shift to have.
I’m on holiday sadly so I can’t watch this video till next Tuesday. Can’t wait to see the store. Are you gonna have an online presence us UK fans can buy from you.

KNERDOUT will do Randy. Good luck......KNERDOUT!!!
Wow, haven't seen or thought about record breakers in forever.
Nice
Do we know what cassettes ..walkmans and records are ?
Nope .
Weird time to open a store.. in the middle of a pandemic.
Best of luck 😊
Damn, your store would be the go to spot unfortunately, I live in Cali. Can we buy online? I’m eyeballing almost all of the store especially the Star Wars Micro Machine’s.
S Rod No online shop just yet
I’d buy a shirt!
Maybe you need to add the “K” to nerd out so it can be “Knerdout”, you know, a name we already know by name.

Mazal tov, Randy! I did not find where to buy the merchandise on the store's website. Can you post the link, please?
Bernardo Warman Thanks! Currently sales are in store only. I’m hoping to be able to expand in the near future
That Coleco Colecovision Robotech is pretty cool. Oh you got the TRU Exclusive Wedge's Xwing, how much is that?! I want it! :D
aliasangelalias it’s Brian’s I think he wants $120. I’ll double check
How come I never knew about this?
Do you work there? Do you have employees?
Did you quit your day job?
I hope you get tons of customers.. starting up a specialty store like that is a big gamble.

First off, the store looks amazing, I really like it. Shouldn't it be GEEKOUT thought? Nerd stuff would be math and science related, maybe some calculus books or a telescope.
Also, what percentage of the initial store stock came from your own collection?
K J maybe 50%

U got a an ecleqtic collection there.
I'm sorry if I missed it, but do you have a website? I want to support the store if you would be shipping until I can visit shop.
killerpitdbo www.nerdouttoys.com currently no online sales
Are you going to be opening a store in Georgia so I can go to a store like this instead of going all the way to Michigan?
Sam .P uh...maybe that will be where I open the second store. Georgia is a nice state.
Did you purposely forget the 'K' in Nerd Out?
How business go as in 2020 now ?
This you are able to actually live from the street toys store/business?
Mark Hamilton not bad
I'll buy a Nerdout shirt if you can ship one.
3:39 - Avoid The Noid!
Hey Randy are you going to TFcon
Hot rodimus Convoy unfortunately, opening the shop changed my plans to go to TFCon. 🙁
Oh☹️ ok thx for responding
How much is new stock / buying collections versus selling parts of your collection? And I take it you had another job and you quit it?
Bruman new stock is such small profit margins but it’s all part of the game
@@knerdout4601 Sorry, I meant "how much" as in "percentage of your store". Like is it 90% new stock, or like 50% of it is you selling older parts of your collection, etc.
I'm an older collector too, been selling lots of stuff on eBay the past few years, heh.
Bruman oh. Maybe 50%
