It's the same where you try to sell a lot of games, put a rare/desirable game in there and fill it with junk. It's how I have several copies of Caesars casino on SNES. Mystery boxes just give all random so you don't know what value you're getting.
@@mntngr346 Obviously no one is putting retro games in a blind box though, They're such easy sellers and blind boxes are known for being stock that doesn't sell. He threw in some decently valuable or just fun games though like Yakuza.
@@megami215 I'm starting to agree here. I used to really enjoy this channel, but all it is these days is just recorded footage of rummaging through the local flea market/collectibles store, and then a paid advertisement. This is quickly becoming a "skip" in my viewing rotation.
Here’s Boomer is an early 80’s tv show about a dog named Boomer that goes adventures helping people. The dog would hide in strange places to help. My mom saw the show and the dog hiding, and as a baby I would hide so she has called me Boomer ever since. I actually own that lunchbox! Great memories thanks Rick!!
Looks like the mystery box was just a bunch of stuff the guy couldnt sell so just offed it all in one shot least cost wise you got what you paid for but a bunch of junk 20$ modern games just seems like hes using you to sell what he couldnt cause theres no nolstalga value or collection value in that box
I wish you would have done a segment on the puzzles and Paperback Books. I know it's not really Retro related but I love finding books and puzzles at great prices.
As a retro game/toy collector (small) I like my self setup as is, because it shows what i picked up and when time wise,my only setup guide is time,of course i change things around in time a bit,but my favourites will always stays in the glory and the rest still on the stage. My motto is if you out of space,than go up plus DIY than sideways.
Disappointing that you had bunch of modern stuff for the RETRO collector. Could be just a mistake. A retro mystery box would be interesting to open up! Hope for more like that in the future.
I probably wouldn't deal with that seller again. He didnt take into account what you're into and dumped off a lot of random junk and niche titles on you.
Dude just gave you a bunch of walmart clearance. Weren't they like 3 cents piece or something like that? I remember watching Phoenix Resales video on it
Was thinking the same thing, pretty sure I saw Phoenix resale but most of those at Walmart for dirt cheap but I trust Ricks tallying and it must be worth the $1000 to resell
@@Mistergorehound Fair point but pretty sure he wouldn't have purchased a $1000 mystery box if it wasn't solely for Content. Us average Joe's would have felt ripped off for sure lol
You should keep that Capcom Belt Action collection, great collection of beat’em ups from the 80s and 90s and the box is big because it comes with posters of the original covers for the games
lol this was a trip of a video "Give me whatever!" Looks of disappointment while opening everything, seeing that he literally did give whatever. Then the back and forth of "Cool new collection stuff" to "Imma just sell it to you guys" Wild trip lol
Hey just wanted to point out that you should consider emptying those surge and duff cans. My can of New Coke developed a pin hole and leaked all over the place. Luckily it didn't damage anything, but my laptop was right under the shelf. Can't wait to see the finished room! I have the same idea - rotating out stuff every so often.
Not sure if you'll ever see this comment Rick but that Furby, that's the exact color Furby I got back in the day! I think I still have it somewhere. It was cool going through that box of games and nostalgic items too!
No green super soaker? Cross fire? Power rangers sound effect gloves and dagger? Loved those growing up. Still never forgave my mom for selling all my favorite childhood toys at a garage sale. 🤬
One of the guys from lost ark are from my home town winterville NC. I used to go to lost ark every weekend when I lived in Greensboro. It's a awesome store. You should check it out 1 day retro
That belt action big box collectors edition is pretty sweet. I have the standard game that I got from Playasia as the physical release only came out in Asia and we only got a digital release. Great video.
Love the pacing in this video. I personally was pretty disappointed in the mystery box. But with mystery boxes you're paying for the experience of opening it.
Hey retro- I don't know about the US but certainly in the UK there's a lot of value in film novelizations. I'd look into it if I were you. Maybe a new untapped revenue stream (I buy and sell rare books on the side btw 😁)
I would have shit had I got that mystery box. It was tailored to me! Castle shikigami iii, and Game tengoku sealed paradise box! Not to mention loads of other cool Niche things! You got my box Rick!
I'm afraid 40 minutes will not be enough unless if you rush through your collection. You can easily fill 2 hours with al the great goodies you have in your room.
Meh. The controllers were cool. The rest sucked. You want a real mystery box, feel free to let me know. I’ve been collecting and selling 80’s and 90’s toys and games for 20 years. 😁
How to get rid of your video games junks and doubles that don't sell well is to make a mystery box LOL.
There wasn't a lot of garbage stuff here. It was mostly niche titles but those always have an audience. I honestly would have loved this box.

Most games were pretty bad... But I saw couple gems. I would have maybe bought 2 or 3 games out of that mystery box.
Buying a mystery box for $1000 then just auctioning it off to make your money back just seems like a weird cycle for free content.
He said it himself, there was nothing in it that he would want to keep. It was 90% modern games. The seller should have made a more balanced box.
That’s his whole channel. Lies and clickbait. He been sold out
If it was full of retro games he’d likely keep most of it. Unless he had doubles.

Rick, I know there are a lot of gaming guitars out there. That white Xplorer guitar you saw is worth picking up, it can be worth upwards of $70-$80.
I thought the same thing. That's the only one that does sell lol
I agree they also getting pretty hard to find.
Very glad I found mine at a garage sale for $10. Very desirable especially for clone hero on pc because it already has a USB plug in.
If you don’t mind can you please timestamp it so I know exactly what you’re talking about

The original boomer
Siccooper sells “mystery boxes” at his store. You should get one from him.
He does it on his website too
I love siccooper
Yep, Cooper is the man 🤘🏻
Siccooper Channel is awesome 👏
Copper is a good watch but his prices are outrageous at times
Rick would have been happier if there were 200 copies of Mario Duck Hunt in there :)
200 x 5 bucks a piece = $1000
My brother and sister-in-law got me a Retro Rick sweatshirt for Christmas! It is comfy and looks awesome! I love it.

The blue lion you found was from Voltron
Man I remember chewing on that orange hair on that troll when I was under ten years old lol🤣🤣
The blue lion was a piece of Voltron. Voltron was the Power Rangers over a decade or so before the Power Rangers were ever thought of in America.

That's seasons idea is pretty cool 👌 but yea E.T.'s always been here ✨👽✨
"Aha" 🤣🤸
I want this cyberpunk controller. Cool Video i like These random Boxes and your fleamarket hunts
I remember watching boomer n italy early 80's for sure.
Great video content as usual my friend , enjoy your Christmas holiday a lot if comics here lol
I live in Greensboro and Lost Ark is the dopest Retro Gaming Store out here !!! Cool to see
I'm from Eden I'm definitely gonna have to check that place out!
Disappointing that you had bunch of modern stuff for the RETRO collector. Could be just a mistake. A retro mystery box would be interesting to open up! Hope for more like that in the future.
I agree...hopefully next time we can get retro stuff only!
I think the blue lion is from a new version of Voltron

Happy New Year 🎊🎆🎈 🎉🍾💥💥💥Excited about game room reorganization 2022 is going to rock!!!✌️🙏
Ahhhh man the explorer guitar hero guitar! Great fast flips! Awesome video as always though!

I picked up an old tin Berenstain Bears lunch box the other day for $7!! It’s awesome but no thermos
Watching him move that $100+ Xplorer out the way just to talk about that board game pained me so much...theyre so rare now!
The guitar hero controller? Surely not that much, unless it's mint in box. That thing looks broken.
I'm from Arkansas as well and I am a huge retro fan as well. Where is a great place to find retro Star Wars toys around Little Rock.

I second this. I had collectible Pepsi cans and they all eventually leaked and made a mess everywhere
I love how you edit in the old commercial. It's like breadcrumbs to my childhood.
I saw the slim chicken's cup in the game room... I approve :-)
I got those Zelda Joycons at Target on clearance for $40. (picked up 3, 1 for me 2 for my nieces) People selling them online for over $100 though.
Damn that guy took a lot of poos in a box, placed super r-type in and sent it off.
That blue mech is a Voltron get it for your boss!
Yakuza 3-6 are all fantastic games. Go into the Sega Arcade in the games and go play a whole bunch of Sega arcade classics. Good times.
Not sure if you'll ever see this comment Rick but that Furby, that's the exact color Furby I got back in the day! I think I still have it somewhere. It was cool going through that box of games and nostalgic items too!
The blue lion is Voltron. If I had a dollar for every time Voltron is mistaken for Power Rangers...
thanks for the heads up!
A delicious episode Rick. There were some super obscure games in that box. I dare say that some of them aren’t available here in the UK
Thank you my friend! Hope you had a Merry Christmas!
@@retrorick It was nice thanks Rick. I hope you and your family had a great one too
this man owes you $1k back..
glad to see you prospering buddy. Renebean checking in..
Great Video! Keep up the good work and Positive Attitude!
thank you my friend!
awesome video just went to lost ark to pick ups some good deals the other day , super cool retro store 🏬 and they had “rule of rose “ 😧😵💫
Lost Ark Video games is a nice game shop and arcade! We e been hunting out there before. Nice staff.
Ditch the posters above the crt. Add more shelves or put an oled up there.
caladrius blaze is great. one of the coolest shmups.
"Into the Dead 2, I can say that one." Lol.
1000 bucks to make 150 not good in my opinion. you put out a grand thats alot of money for a bulk buy there should of been more meat on that bone
You got to watch the Adventures of Young Indiana Jones. It is cool to see his early history around WW1.
You moved an $80 guitar hero controller off of the board game and then put it back. I’d check to see if they have it priced well!
My favorite game you had in there was the Geoffrey plushie... 😬😬😬🤷♀️🤣😂🤣
you made me laugh so much in the unboxing of the mystery box. it was such an awesome mystery box for modern gamers and anime gamers!
I just recently got my first Xbox one S ever, very happy with it so far

Congrats 🥳 Rick getting over 1000,000 subscribers tbh you deserve more you awesome 😎 love your vids 👍👍👍👍👍
Blue Tiger was Voltron
I can hear randy Newman as he packs up his toy story shelf
It's a good day when retro rick uploads
Mystic out here in the retro world
Let’s be honest Rick you weren’t to happy about this, the guy seemed nice but didn’t get the memo on what you were looking for still good content tho
That belt action big box collectors edition is pretty sweet. I have the standard game that I got from Playasia as the physical release only came out in Asia and we only got a digital release. Great video.
I recommend you keep all the Nintendo Switch games. A lot of good stuff.
The best game in that box was the YAKUZA
Retro you should definitely play the Yakuza series… fantastic … don’t sleep on those. I think they are in your wheelhouse.
I played all yakuzas from Ps2, Ps3 to ps4 love them, also I wish sega makes a comeback with a new console as I'm a huge sega fan
Whoa your editing is almost as good as Riffs!
You should make a mystery box!
Yakuza and Belt Action are good.
First time on seeing this channel and love the intro
Love the pacing in this video. I personally was pretty disappointed in the mystery box. But with mystery boxes you're paying for the experience of opening it.
If you like arcade shooters then you should definitely try out castle of shikigami iii
It always makes my day when you find mighty morphin power rangers toys for your son #90skid #1stgenpowerrangers #formyson!!!
That particular young Indiana jones vhs came with the original trilogy of Indiana jones movies
Would love to hear the high pitched, "It's for me"!!!....lol.

Those are really good modern anime games in there, Sakuna is a great game!
Castle of Shikigami 3 is very nice!
Dude!! Is the TIMEX box you have from timex watches? My grandfather worked in the timex factory here in Dundee, Scotland before it was shut down!
I would have shit had I got that mystery box. It was tailored to me! Castle shikigami iii, and Game tengoku sealed paradise box! Not to mention loads of other cool Niche things! You got my box Rick!
Pretty much same here, 95% is stuff I spend all my money on
Exactly. Box was amazing. And there is a reason anime and retro video games with anime aesthetics are high value. Look at Jrpgs.
Little disappointed you didn't recognize Voltron Blue lion....
it’s funny that the flea market as music sheets on whole shelf act like a table cloth 😂
look creepy at 9:00 that "black head-like head object" behind those pillows or blanket
Super Cool Video as Always Woody tho we may need see him
Tides of Numenera is an excelant Baldurs Gate style of Western RPG
I'm afraid 40 minutes will not be enough unless if you rush through your collection. You can easily fill 2 hours with al the great goodies you have in your room.
I can do without the shilling for whatnot.
Hey I have a question about the last episode of the $10 game collection
What gameboy games did you sell with the gameboy color
"For my wife" made me laugh out loud 🤣
Have you ever read Jaws, it turns into a bit of a pornographic novel at one point LOL. I thought it was all about a shark 😂
Mystic has done mystery box stuff
I bought the toys r us Jeffrey when they were going out of business, cool to see somebody else has one
I don't know/recognize any of the games in the $1,000 mystery box. I grew up in the Era of Mario, Sonic, Spyro, Donkey Kong and Crash Bandicoot.
That was Voltron blue Lion
Am definitely interested in that switch last kids on earth my wife loves that series if you can let me know if it’s available thanks
i would of been mad as hell if i opened a 1000 dollar mystery box full of anime crap
That box was kinda bad all anime i sell all of it expected that xbox one controller
Me too!! I just don’t understand why any of that stuff was in the box.. the seller has made a big mistake there.
It's not crap and he got quite good finds
Retro Rick you need a second camera to get 2 angles of these unboxings!
Meh. The controllers were cool. The rest sucked. You want a real mystery box, feel free to let me know. I’ve been collecting and selling 80’s and 90’s toys and games for 20 years. 😁
There was a lot of good stuff in there. Not everybody just play Mario, Zelda, Pokémon and Halo.
