- Here are some action figures from the 1980s, and one from the 1990s. Basically what it is is I'm still a kid at heart. These remind me of the "prime time", I call it. I like how toys used to be.

"Too much ventilation.
I'm gonna go anyway."
I know..right ? Way to funny.
That has me dying love it
Space!!
...I'm making a confession. I'm a toy designer (boys action) for a top 5 toy company and I watch your videos almost everyday, in particular, this one...over and over and over..haha. I feel the same way about 80s figure designs (also nostalgia for me) and it puts me in the mood to start my day and get excited about my next designs! thank you Crafts Man. you make my day everyday!
Crafsman you are quickly becoming one of my favourite people. Your soothing voice, wonderful outlook and sincere positivity has touched my life and the lives of thousands. Thank you for your wonderful contributions to the world. Have a blessed day.
and i am one of those thousands! Crafsman ...you ROCK!!!
kinda like bob ross
I have found the only channel that not even trolls have the heart to "Thumbs down." This is a national treasure.
"He ready"
I'm never ready the way these guys are ready. Man I need to get on it.
LOL!

BETH! LOL! Good to hear from you, as always! Glad you liked that part. :D
Indeed.
I rarely "lol", but that time, I did.
OMG, I just love you. You made me laugh so hard with your interpretations of what each figure was going to do . I bet you are the coolest dad. And your grand finale making Earthworm Jims head pop off..brillant !!!! You are to adorable for words..Thank you again for pure entertainment. P.S. My husband has a garage full of this stuff, he goes into kid mode too.
OMG, I’m with you at first I wasn’t sure now I find my self from time to time looking for his videos to brighten my day. 🤣😂🤣
"I want a space suit."
"You can't fit into one yet."
"I'm gonna go anyway."
This is my favorite video I've seen in a long time.
Man, there ain't nothing better to start my morning watching you Craftsman, You're my new Mr. Rogers
Mighty kind of you, my friend!
Yay! I collect toys too - I think when you’re crafty/artsy you look at toys as being more than just a toy. The design the colors and the packaging it’s all so neat to look at and appreciate the design work
That's a good way to look at it. I do indeed appreciate the designs and things. The old packaging in particular, I really like it. It was maybe simpler and sometimes more bold, with basic colors. Something about it. :)
Couldn't agree more.
Awesome! This is the best collection - everything scuffed up and well-used/loved, not hermetically sealed and soullessly organized on a display shelf. I think anyone who outgrows their toys is missing the point of life... Love your running commentary, as always. Peace.
I went from exploring Recommendations to subscribing to this man i mean he got a real nice voice
The best collections aren't about the worth in dollars, but how much you love them. I love your enthusiasm and joy!
Best video ever about 1980’s action figures. And I’ve seen a lot (haven’t we all…).
I just recently found your channel, and I think it's amazing. I'm a professional graphic designer who is looking to start doing some crafting, and your videos are as helpful as they are inspiring. I have a huge collection of vintage Star Wars action figures myself. I have a feeling we're the same age, more or less.
Crafsman, you are still a kid at heart! Loved this blast from the past. Thank you for all you do.
Thanks for keeping on watching these videos, Dawn! I appreciate you!
Im 40 now so this was my toy era. I have so many magical memories with these toys. I remember "Snake Eyes" was the toughest Gi Joe for me to aquire. He came with the wolf. I loved Mask toys too and had tons of M.u.s.c.l.e.s. what a great trip down memory lane. I sure wish i wouldve held on to all those toys... Thanks Crafsman... you da bestest!
A lot of craziness in the world today. So glad I found you. I really needed this. Thank you!
The Crafsman is so relaxing I fell asleep yesterday watching his video
that's my childhood.. 80s action figures. Well, 70s too since my older cousins gave me some :)
That reminds me of the action figures my grandparents had at their house. I loved to play with those
Oh Boy! The Fisher -Price Action Men were a favorite. I had the motorcycle guy, but with bending knees and his motorcycle had a sidecar. And the ranger had a jeep and a pontoon boat. The pilot had a yellow plane and the plane could snap onto the ranger's pontoon boat so it was a float plane. And the diver had tanks and flippers and a submarine. Boy, that's a flashback!
Thanks!
I have rewatched this at least ten times and I am still not tired of this video
:) I sure appreciate that! I've even got more old toys and stuff around here.
I would love to try casting some Air Raiders! A tiny army of them would be great!
Fantastic. Always good to see Metal Men and Micronauts! Love the channel.
Hey Crafsman! I collect 80s action figures, especially He Man toys. Great video!
I was a kid in the 80s. We had some great toys back then. great trip down memory lane.
Very happy to see the 1974 Fisher Price X-Ray figures & the black robot. I always loved them.
Snap! I had that biker and some micronauts...forgot all about them until I saw this. Great review
5:47 Wow....I had that blue tent & jeep set.
Thank you for enlightening us with your positive and wholesome presence
I absolutely love this. I had that Earthworm Jim, I think. I lost his head. I also remember getting Earthworm Jim 2 for the Super Nintendo. It was for my birthday. My dad snuck and let me play it early without my mom knowing. I miss my dad. Thank you for the great videos, they spark many memories and feelings.
Great video, Crafsman. My auntie was living in Europe in the late 70’s and sent me a bunch of Action Man figures. Those and my wind up Evil knievel bikes were my favorites. Thanks for bringing back some good memories.
My nephew was born in 1980, and I remember buying him GI Joe’s for his birthday and Christmas. 😊
I've seen so much in my life...nothin' surprises me no more.
LOL! He's been through it, the white-haired man. Thanks, Lisa!
My favorite toys from the 80's were my Strawberry Shortcake playset and Shera!! I remember my neighbor had a brother that had a lot of these toys😁
What a wonderful walk down memory lane! Thank you for sharing your wonderful collection!
7:00 Yes- Micronauts. Red one on the left is Galactic Warrior, blue one on the right is Space Glider. Really cool accessories with them if you can ever find them. Best toys ever. Love the video.
Mannn, yeah! I priced some of the plastic ones and was not prepared for the price they go for nowadays. :/
Thanks for the video and the stories. Very nice to listen to, keep em comin'!
Thank you, Hubbard!
Mr. Craftsman, your videos are gold. Bless you sir.
My older brothers had the Daredevil Sport Van and the Dune Buster. Also the parachute guy was a favorite. I had totally forgotten about these sets!
I used to steal their big GI Joe's, the old ones that were like a foot tall, because I didn't have a Ken doll. I was always upset that all the baby dolls were girls too! Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
Dang Crafsman! Good video! We especially liked the guy that was fixin to go to the farmers market. The metal men were pretty nice too...thanks for continuing to inspire us
This is one of my favorite videos of all time...thank you
Wow. Thanks so much, Vance! Happy you liked it!
This is beautiful video crafsman, u truly have sentimental gold in ur hands there brother
I must be the same age as your kids because I had almost all these toys. Your show is great.
Thanks so much, Billy! And man, these have to still be the best toys to come out, in my opinion. :)
I wanna go to sleep but I can't stop watching the Crafsman videos
I love all of your videos, but I think this one is my all time favorite. CrafsMan, you're the greatest!
A friend of mine had a cool robot guy, the line was called PLOTTER. It was neat, they had vehicles and dinosaurs to ride on, spring loaded rocket launchers. I had a GI Joe growing up, he was Back-Stop with a Persuader Tank.
Earthworm Jim is such a cool character, the first 2 games were awesome and the cartoon was hilarious!
OMG i had that blue micronaut! I think he had a flying pack that sprung open on the back and a helmet though. I liked those as a kid as they were metal and fully articulated. Wow! You have some cool stuff in your collection. Brought back some good memories.
Thanks for checking it out, Neal! :D I priced some plastic Micronauts a while back and MAN they are pricey now. :/
I love this so dang much !! So glad I found this brings me back to reality sometimes things just fly by go fast this man just keeps things simple.
HE READY HE READY
Love your craft videos but also really loved your show-and-tells. I get so excited for each new vid!
YAY Air Raiders! I loved theses growing up.
This is the first video ive seen from this guy and seeing his collection and listening to him talk about it took me out of a dark place i been in by lureing me back to a time that i was happy .thank you im gonna watch more of his videos when im feeling This way in the future .
This makes me happy
GREAT video CrafsMan, really enjoyed getting to see all of these! I would love to see more videos like this.
Brother Craftman.... You takin me wayyyy back with this collection of yours. I love it.
this is gold. love your narration love your voice. you have big heart and soul!!
So many things have gotten lost and thrown away through the years! This helps me to remember the past. Thank you and take care... Paul.
Thank you for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed this.
Crafsman, you make my day
On a DAILY basis. Thank you!!
Wow. Super encouraging. Thank you!
Always the best! Thanks so much!!!
Brought back so many memories from the old school g.i. Joes on up thru my kids toys! 🙏🏼
Thanks for sharing, Crafsman. Love your videos!
Just love you, Crafsman! Please do more videos! ❤️❤️
So when you not steady craftin you be reminiscin on some ol 80's action figures? That's cool CrafsMan! Muscles were my favorite, remember they had'm in trash cans and they even had a ring to fight! they are still cool, think I'll track some down.
I had an affection for all my action figures. I let go of many of these things for a few years then developed a new appreciation for them. It's hard to define, but there is something powerful about action figures that breath a kind of life into them. To so many they are pieces of plastic. To us, they are alive in a creative way. Your collection is way better than mine, though.
Play mobile brought back so much nostalgia, thank you craftsman
Another awesome video! Your craft videos are always great, but it’s fun to have something different like this every once in a while. Every video you make is great!
LOVE!!! I had the original 8 Star Wars figures from the 70's. And for some reason I kept them in the original packaging.. Then in 2003 my home burned down in a wildfire.. Total loss. Hang on to these no matter what!! Love!
Oh man, Dan... I'm so sorry to hear that! :( But of course glad you and your family are okay. I know that had to be disheartening.
Email me your address (thecrafsman@gmail.com) and you might end up getting a Star Wars figure somehow. ;)
@@TheCrafsMan 💛😊🚀
Always a pleasure to visit memory lane
Great collection, CrafsMan!! I love my Playmobil figures. I love the ones from the ‘80s!
Oh man!! I used to have all kinds of these! I would STILL play with these dudes if I had them. In fact, we could get together and I might even share... maybe!
:D That's what I'm talkin about, Joe!
i collected gi joe when i was a kid and still had a bunch when i was an adult. ended up getting back into collecting, buying and selling. made quite a bit of money doing that back about 10 years ago. just recently started to get some interest back in them. mostly just to make some money buying and selling. prices have doubled since i was doing it before. also like star wars and transformers
Oh my goodness! When you were showing that package art/booklet for the Fisher price adventure people it had that green van on it. I instantly remembered spending hours playing with that little van and the 2 dirt bike riders that came with it!
Thank you for the video comrade, you have reminded me of so much I thought I might have forgotten
This is incredibly calming and entertaining. I’m happy I was informed about your channel!
I am fascinated by this one and others that show your love for toys. Your kids are so fortunate to have a father so funny and young at heart. I was born in ‘81 so i am guessing you’re around my parents age. You are so playful and still thoroughly enjoy pretending and appreciating the toys your kids played with! You remind me to stay young at heart and keep playing. Your videos really cheer me up and make me smile A LOT. Thanks so much for just being you and sharing your life with us.
What a kind comment, Samantha. I have so very much appreciated reading your kind words!
Thanks for the stroll down memory lane. Keep the videos coming!
You might be an ASMR master.
Joshua Walters agreed! I can't get enough of his voice
Lol
What I like about him is he doesn’t force it. It’s like he’s just be the Crafsman.
Thanks, Crafsman. I guess you're... more chronologically mature that I thought you were if you had children back in the 1980's. I guess that explains your wonderful patience and mellow character.
Huge collector of vintage action figures love the channel I just found it a few days ago
Brought back some memories! 👍
Those small astronauts were cool!
Great video!
That was really fun! Thanks for sharing those with us
You're just so genuine dude. Awesome videos!
Man! I had so many of the same toys as your "kids". Thanks for sharing!
An awesome trip down memory lane! Thank you CrafsMan!
“This man right here he ready for anything”
You channel is a special kind of awesome
:D I'm very happy you enjoy my channel!
Man, I just love to watch you play with those figures. Maybe you could do Craftsman theater. :)
just found this channel. Great esthetic and delivery. Sort of the Bob Ross of modern craft materials. Really enjoyable....keep true to form and give it time, this channel will blow up!
Great hobby! You are a true gem, Crafsman!
I wish I still had all my gi Joe stuff. I have huge bags of all the figures and guns and backpacks and stuff with the vehicles.
Hey Crafsman! Thanks for the blast from the past. At 4:47 you show the Fisher Price Adventure figure of the Astronaut. My brother still has him. He was one of our favourite figures and has the wear and tear to show it. Yours is in much better condition. We named him "Spacey" and he hung out with Butch from G.I. Joe for years. Now he has retired to the safety of being bundled away with my brother's classic Star Wars figures. I think he should go on an adventure with the Free Range Chicken since they both have orange space suits. I love the Free Range Chicken. Thanks for all of the educational and inspiring videos. You keep crafting and I'll keep watching. Have a good wkd!
I love your videos so much!!! They’re so creative and relaxing, I’m so glad I found your channel. Please keep making videos, I don’t know what I’d do if you stopped! Your humor and creativity is something TH-cam needs. I’m so glad you make these videos, please keep it up! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Wow. Thank you so much, Eden!
you make my heart smile! the pendant video .. poppajohns!! i was laughing so hard when you moving the glass around and saying Hello! my husband pass last year and your humor reminds of him so much! thank you! God bless you.
Viola, I am so very sorry to hear of your husband's passing. Truly. My condolences to you. I'm glad my little video was able to bring a little laughter to you. :)
I don't have any 80s figures because 1980 was 23 years before I was born but these look really cool!
Great video Crafsman! I had the action figures from that TV show "Emergency" in the 70s. The firemen and paramedics.
Crafs man, you are my new favorite part of the Internet. Your tips are great and helpful and I love the way you just chat with us. I can’t wait for your next video! I loved this look at the action figures!
Hey Merideth! Thanks so much for watching!
beautiful voice, beautiful presentation.
I feel like you were the cool dad who the friends always liked
Aww, now that’s very kind! Thanks, Jamiliah!
Thank you for helping me sleep craftsman still loving your voice
Great memories and excellent video! Thanks!
