    Got my GI Joe Defiant Space Shuttle from Billy (pre-covid) during a business trip. He shipped it back home and the gantry doors made it back safe. Great store & a great story!

    Awesome toy store! Its so important right now to help small businesses get there name out there! Especially in the toy industry with the big guys running everything. We actually did the same thing here in Virginia with local toy stores to help get there names out there! Keep up the good work, loved it!

    It was wonderful getting to meet the staff of Billy Galaxy Toy Store. I was hoping for more toys and less COVID-19 discussion, but it was difficult to think about anything else while filming, I'm sure. Great start to this new series.

    Wow what a debut episode. Love the Toys That Made Us and happy that Brian has made this new series to showcase shops that are still supporting our nostalgic needs in these tough times. Love how much heart and feeling this series has and I'm looking forward to more in the future. Hope everyone at Billy's shop is doing well and I'll be reaching out on IG to see if they have anything I'm looking for.

    I was so distracted by your shelves in the intro that I had to restart the video. Great first episode, still kept some of that TTMU and TMTMU vibe, and I really hope that the attention from this helps Billy out as well as other small shops who keep these awesome childhood treasures alive.

  • @snappythingy
    @snappythingy 4 ปีที่แล้ว +22

    Would love future episodes to focus more on the store owner and employees love of toys and their quirkiness and less on the depressing state of economy and job losses that we all know about ad nauseam from mainstream media. Please add an industry insider perspective to celebrate these toy stores rather than make a second rate take on a heartwarming TLC show. Get us excited about loving this industry and the people within it.

    Retro gaming hippie approves! One day I shall learn to produce such great production work. A little heavy on Covid talk for a toy shop video but I get it. Stopped by the store today and it is wonderful! Have many memories from that area about 25 years ago. Love the displays in the store and they pack a ton of toys and merchandise in their space. If you are going to downtown check it out!

    Damn.
    First time finding this.
    I'm a former EMT, Search & Rescue, & lifetime Transformers PLASTIC CRACK ADDICT...
    😮‍💨
    Y'all got me choked up.
    Runny nose.
    Face melted off.
    Bawling 😭
    I remember back then being so worried, grateful, & then ashamed.
    Worried for everyone; especially my wife working in the public, Docs, nurses, EMTs, & staff I used to know, and just the idiot human race in general.
    Grateful... because we had insurance AND because of my disability, I got vaxx priority & didn't have to be out there in the field any more.
    And deeply ashamed.
    Because I could have helped.
    I know... I am a cripple, so feeling guilty is ridiculous, but I did for a long time.
    I dealt with it.
    I understand.
    But to know that heroes are out there... taking the risk to save lives... lives that hopefully deserve it...
    And then you add in these amazing toy people, who love and respect the entire fundamental idea of TOYS...
    Human beings might be redeemable after all.
    I had lost hope.
    Merry Christmas.
    Primus Bless Us... EVERYONE.

    I was pretty disappointed with this first episode. Way too much talk about COVID 19 and people’s personal stuff. Hope future episodes are more about the toys. Explaining what lines of vintage toys they sell and what’s the rarest items in the store would have been nice.

    Portland Oregon. The place where more people live in tents then do those who life in homes. The place where dumping on anyone doorstep is acceptable. The place where the homeless community took over the entire city with guns for a year, and the major supported it. Yeah, I think ILl pass going there.

    Watching someone complain about being cashed strapped during a time when games and toys are selling like hotcakes online is surreal. The audio is horrible! The producer couldn't loan them a good mic? Poor decision on whomever produced this. One episode and I'm done. I wanted to give this a chance but it was like watching a gold miner surrounded by gold saying man I don't know how I'm gonna pay my bills.
