  • Follow me as I take a visit to the new SpaceBridge store in New Milton, which is in Hampshire in the UK.
    The store recently moved premises to a much bigger store on the town's main high street.
    As well as lot's or retro toys and games such as Transformers, Star Wars, Star Trek, Nintendo, Sega and Pokemon cards, to name a few, they also have a good selection of new and second hand Lego sets as well as a great selection of minifigures.
    You can find more information on the Spacebridge store by visiting their Facebook page / thespacebridgestore
    If you are ever in the New Milton, New Forest, Bournemouth or Southampton areas, please do come and check out the store - they are open Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, 12 noon to 5pm, as well as 10am - 5pm on a Saturday. They don't sell online so you will need to visit to be able to check out their current stock.
    Thanks Paul for letting me come round and video the inside of the store.

    I love perusing through these kind of shops and could spend hours in there. Nostalgia is a great thing and is always nice to see things you had when you were younger and also the collectibles you wanted but didn’t get.

    My hometown too Iain. The shop is fantastic and brings back so many childhood memories o the toys I used to have and wanted. Have been buying lego from there in the last couple of years. I find the prices very reasonable and always have a great range of minifigures and sets. Definitely worth a visit everyone.

    Good to see The Space-Bridge store, quite a selection of items there to suit a variety of interests. I also owned that very same fire station from new and re-assembled it before sale many years later in a very fastidious fashion to check all parts were there. Thank you.

    • @iainsbricks

      ​@iainsbricks hi Iain. I live in Glasgow. I missed you when you were in Loch lomond last year. Would you be interested in meeting me next time you are near Glasgow. Could maybe do deal with minifigures and old lego sets up to 10 years old, no pressure.

    • @williamewen383

      Hi Iain. Maybe we can chat through my Bricklink Store called Brick Allsorts in the UK. I can tell you what sealed sets and polybags etc I have if you are interested. I would be happy to post to you. Absolutely no pressure for you to get involved if you are not interested !!!!

    I can't say about the other stuff, but as a gamer I can say that the prices were actually pretty reasonable, lots of other retro game stores seem jack up their prices way more than market value

    • @iainsbricks

      Yes, I do feel that a lot of the prices in there are very reasonable.
