The die-cast figures at 4:45 and 11:49 are from the 2007 Transformers Screen Battles First Encounter set. It comprised a Deluxe-class Barricade and die-cast figures/mini-statues of Sam, Frenzy and Mikaela IIRC that Muppet bunny's name is Bean The Gundam at 28:48 is indeed F91
Kamen Rider Drive is one of the best, honestly. It's one of the few Kamen Riders that drives a car instead of a motorcycle. Build, W, and Gaim are among my favorites.
@@Sayacalbees87 I haven't seen Saber yet. I'm now mostly caught up with Ultraman. Saber seems more sentai-esque than others, it seems to me. It even has the end credits song and dance routine. Lol
I'm an old Showa guy, but Superhero Taisen GP: Kamen Rider 3-go has a good mix of all eras up to 2015 with the Drive team being central. 1-go and 2-go aren't in it, nor Super-1, but plenty of my boy Minami Koutaro in it. Good watch
Drive was one of those Kamen Riders i skipped but I ended up getting a Mach toy. The white with red racing stripe is just really fun. Still one of my favorite and I loved that era of toys. 100% cool looking action figure. I like finger articulation and those gimmick toys have some great tightness thanks to the knuckles being metal pins.
Have that Spider-Man figure at 25:34 somewhere in my boxes. It's a figure by Kaiyodo from their Marvel Ultimate Universe Action Vignette Figure line in 2006. More like an articulated gashapon toy than a model kit. There were 5 figures in the line if I recall correctly; but I only had this one, a Venom, and the Ultimate Universe Green Goblin. I remember it being really photogenic if you put it in the pre-posed stance.
So happy to see a tiny F91 as I feel the whole Formula series up to Crossbone Vanguard hasn't gotten the love that many other Gundam series have experienced. My Metal Build F91 Chronicle White Version is one of my prized treasures.
I've been getting into Kamen Rider these last few years and I totally know what you mean about keeping up with multiple franchises. I've seen probably half a dozen Kamen Rider series and a few episodes of some Sentai and Ultraman series. For modern Kamen Rider I'd recommend 01. It's kind of a return to form as far as the costumes go and it's a pretty engaging show
"When did Kamen Rider changed from Bug man to all these crazy design?" 2000. Start from Kuuga, the series moved away from the bug motif more and more. Kuuga still has some bug motif, but it also has a heavy ancient civilization theming. If you find the franchise too hard to talk about in 1 go, try splitting it into Showa, Heisei, Neo-Heisei and and currently running Reiwa period.
I feel you on the toe articulation; I have a Storm Collectibles Mortal Kombat Kintaro figure that is a struggle to stand up, because of his toe articulation. Anyway, I have a few suggestions for you for a "history of" episode: 1. You've talked about Lanard Toys The Corps for a while, had a few figures pop up in these PO Box unboxing, and it made me think of their weird 12-inch K9 Corps line. I would love to see you do a "History Of" of these lines. 2. I was going to suggest this as an Oddities episode, but since you're integrating those into the main History Of series, I'd like you to check out Dollar Tree's Final Faction toy line. Ashens did a review of the line in two parts, a while back, and it got me interested in it. Seeing you do a History Of episode for it would be cool to see. EDIT: Well, speak of the devil, both The Corps and Final Faction pop up in this episode. You should totally do a History Of episode on both.
feel like I may have seen those final faction figures during my last dollar tree visit? (we have one right next door within walking distance so if we're hurting on money it definitely helps in a pinch) and do occasionally browse the toy section just for the heck of it. always surprised at the stuff I see pop up there.
I'm with you with how gangly Marvel Legends figures looked. I could never get into how they gangly they appeared. DC Universe Classics figures were far less articulated but just LOOKED better. I didn't buy many (just a Superman, Batman and Alan Scott) but I still bought more than the big fat zero ML figures I own.
That yellow He-Man is supposed to represent him powering up and is called “Power Attack,” though I think Pixel Dan called him pee-colored He-Man. The GitD one was actually from Super7. I have like a dozen of that line they did in 5.5 before losing the license.
I actually felt bad for you on this one. That first dude apparently sent you a bunch of junk. All those random BAFs are just silly. I have random sh!t sitting around, should I send it to you too?!?
Ah don't feel bad. If it was really a bad box I wouldn't have put it in the video. Many times people just like being part of the show, hearing their name, and seeing if I can identify stuff or if I have a story to tell. It's not about having the best, perfectly mint things that I need for my collection.

I was just thinking the other day that it has been a while since you had a mail opening video. It's like you are reading my mind! Get out of my head!

Agree w and build are among the best and my favorites. I was a big fan of saber as well but a lot of people didn’t like it apparently.

@@Sayacalbees87saber was a huge mess and the handling of forms in that show was horrible. Geats was much better in every single way possible.

Btw, Xpanders deserves an episode on the main channel
Kamen Rider has become my favorite franchise over the past few years
I missed this videos so much Dan this so great now we want flea market finds
I too love tiny things with lots of detail. Action figures, bug and animals, plants, everything.
😄👍

Oh, man. I forgot I mailed those in. Enjoy Dan. Sorry, the wing piece snapped on you.
All good! Thank you for the box. I'm just waiting for the glue to dry and Gundam Wing EW will be as good as new.

The amount of gold in one video, gotta love it

Glad to see you got the Kamen Rider figs, enjoy! Great video.
Lol, I have one of those Final faction yellow bots I was going to send you 😂
Love these, just random weird bits and pieces
yassssss so stoked for all the skybound gijoe books too
Crossover events killed my comic reading as well. I used to grab the occasional TPB but it's been years now for that too.
Is that an evil kinevl kaman rider?
Those Dragonball figures are rad. Anyone know what the line is called?

I was a minute into the video and then I went and ordered The League of... didn't know that existed! Thanks, but also " Damn You Larsen!!"
You know those small DBZ figures are rather impressive for they size as far as articulation and detail comes.
I have been waiting for this return.
Esos monos del cocún son el super buu, el goku super y el goku rambo.
The Scoob toys caught my eye.
I don’t even like Dragon Ball but I kinda want those little figures. They’re so cool!
we back
Wolverine and ST from
Transformers X-Men cross over “X-Spance”
The only superhero you want pointing is Spider-Man
Definitely hate build a figure as a concept, would rather just pay a bit extra for the figure all at once
rip dragonball z guy
Xemmu is the "abominable" you were thinking of.
Right on the tip of my tongue.
