    ...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!

    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.

    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!

    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.

    @mangaemily 6 ปีที่แล้ว +35

    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

    • @TheCrafsMan
      @TheCrafsMan  6 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      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. :)

    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.

  • @vershaladyn
    @vershaladyn 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    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.

    • @TheCrafsMan
      @TheCrafsMan  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Mannn, yeah! I priced some of the plastic ones and was not prepared for the price they go for nowadays. :/

    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.

    • @TheCrafsMan

    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!

    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!

    @00:25 I had that lego kit. I remember it because the little kits were cheap enough I could get one every week and I wanted that one because of the bigger wheels and I could make cool cars cause most little kits only had the small tires also that articulating chassis joint was useful as well.

    I rewatch your vids frequently and this one is at the top of the list. As stressful as life can be it’s so comforting to know there are others out there with shared outlook/sensibilities, an appreciation for craft, a love of collectibles and other simple pleasures. It gives me hope for the human race 💙🙏🏻

    Thank you for this wonderful reminder from my childhood! I always enjoyed sneaking into my older brothers' toy chest for Snaggletooth (Star Wars), the Action People van & dune buggy (great for my Fisher Price people to ride in), and all of the He-Man figures. I remember using Castle Greyskull as Skeletor's "house"; he would invite Evil Lyn over for date night and serve her "soup" from the cauldron! :D
    We also has the very small (about an inch or so) metal Star Wars figures plus the playsets. We wore the paint off some of them, we played with them so much! And there were certain Muscle Men that we always fought over. ;)
    Thank you again for sharing. Looking forward to whatever your next video brings!

    • @MidnightMuldoon
      @MidnightMuldoon 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    GREAT video
    Edit: I definitely had the guy at 2:05, and yeah, G.I. Joes were definitely my favorite action figure to have growing up. All their equipment, uniforms, vehicles and stuff was just so cool/modern (not to mention the figures were easy to pose in cool ways).
    Ninja Turtles and Batman were also big ones for me as a kid, though that was just sort of the pop culture of the time. The first motion picture Batman (Michael Keaton) had just come out along with the first Turtles motion picture, so we were eating that up as kids.

    Man, I just love to watch you play with those figures. Maybe you could do Craftsman theater. :)

    I had one of the Metal Man figures as a kid, and had forgotten they even existed until I saw this video. Good stuff, CrafsMan!

    This video is what brought me to your channel . I love the funny thing is you said regarding each action figure especially about the old man that cannot be surprised by anything in the metal menz that are hard to break! I also like the way you talk in your videos kind of like Bob Ross with little more flava. Keep it up Craftsman!

    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. ;)

    You've got some really cool stuff. Some of those toys I've not thought about in years. Here in the south it's harder to find that stuff at flea markets and yard sales.

    Craftsman! I’m loving your channel. Keep up the great work. I love the recent toy making episodes. Gonna do my own and I’ll give you a shout out. Thanks for the inspiration.

    Hey, CrafsMan, I recall the Air Raiders & the M.u.s.c.l.e figures well. I love your videos, thank you for uploading them and sharing.

    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.

    Haha, those were the days! I used to have some of those Playmobil. Earthworm Jim had his own cartoon, his own video game and action figures. I feel like the "Free Range Chicken" should too! 😊 Please never stop making videos!

    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.

    I loved this video. I had a few of those figures featured here, and i had forgotten about some of them. Someday I hope to be able to craft my own! I’m going to start using your videos to learn soon. Should be awesome!
