Born in '75 and had a huge Star Wars collection as a kid in addition to a lot of the other toys featured here, all of which I gave away as a younger adult. Not counting ex-wives, I don't collect anything these days but love watching these videos as they really take me back to simpler times. They also remind me how lucky I was. Keep up the good work!! Ps. "I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass... And I'm all outta bubblegum"
i used to play in the bath with the maltese falcon and all the rare star wars figures land raider, got given away. as they were given to me. wahhhhh. dont get me started on pokemon cards that got given away...
Had to go into town last week and had a quick browse through the vintage toy shop and just had to have him. Captain Scarlet and asked the shop owner to put him aside till next month. Can't wait to pick him up. For £20 unboxed a bargain
That "They Live" toy was a great buy. Did not know they made Toys for the movie. Your videos have got me thinking of starting my own collection. I've got to now.
I owned that A-Team bad guy with the orange shirt at 6:21 when I was younger - the only A-Team figure I had! Think it may still be around somewhere, Mum recently brought over some boxes of stuff from my old room.
Seeing all them MASK toys gave me childhood flashbacks . Shame you didn't get to Havant that's about 8 miles from Portsmouth as there is small a retro toy shop stand in the Meridian Centre now , sells lots of different 80s toys.
Ahaha yeah we went to see him! He had some amazing stuff, he said he may be opening a shop there soon so we will be back! Thanks for watching! Appreciate it
Vinyl i meant, sorry im not the best at typeing 😊 but great videos, judge dread 2000 ad are decent comics, i have a few pistols comics, pan horror were big in there day.
I bought an original yellow tron lightcycle from this store that was sitting in the round display unit as you enter the shop. I couldn't believe my luck, I'd wanted one for a long time and they are very hard to come by and it is in great condition.
@@GE-bc7ed There aren't many around like the Vintage Toy Monster. We are compiling a list of the best ones, I'm sure there must be a couple good ones in Scotland. Stay tuned!
@@ToyOverdose Went in mate and got some bits! Was great to chat to him and what an amazing store, thanks for showcasing and will be keeping an eye on the channel! :)
In the 60s I had the Batmobile which fired little yellow missiles and the James Bond Aston Martin with bulletproof rear shield and the pop out machine guns. Long gone now 😢
Extreme Dinosaurs is the line thats similar to Street Sharks you were looking at 😁 also finally youtube recommends a decent video haha shop looks ace I'm up in Scotland would love to make a trip
Damn! I would love to go there, alas I can not. You see, I hail from the shores of a city nearby and despite my daughters mum coming from Pompey and my daughter having been born in Southampton etc, my skin starts to blister and burn if I try to enter Portsmouth 😢 Thanks to you, people like me can still see these marvels.
If I had my own vintage toy store, any and all wrestling stuff would be banned😂. It would be filled with original Star Wars stuff, Japanese Transformers, original Japanese Kinnikuman and Dr. Slump and similar stuff, along with all the toys we wanted for Christmas in the 70s and early 80s. Lots of Hot Wheels/Matchbox, robots, games, all the good stuff! I just wish we had money when I was a kid so I could have had all the Star Wars figures. At least I had Boba Fett and a Darth Vader watch…
How far back do these toys go; 1950s? 60s? The shop looks amazing, although I am unfamiliar with most of the things shown on camera here. Anything Marvel is outside of my knowledge base. I wouldn't know a Clark Kent from a Spiderman. Star Wars toys were not a thing when I was a child. Sure, there were rumours of such toys, but we never saw any. Anything animated from the 1980s onward was not made for me. Even so, I could spend a whole day in a shop like this. I must go back to the place where I grew up and visit this shop in Pompey. Excellent stuff. Cheers.
There used to be a place in Lee-On-Solent, near the high street. Is that still there do you know? It's close to where you are in this video. All the best to you.
8 years ago ish I went to Birmingham U.K. Comic Con and a Slimer 👻 was available to buy almost the correct size latex and almost solid for £500 looked 99% real amd felt like soft rubber . I’ve seen him again for sale £1800 I’ve spent the last 8 years regretting not buying Him. And there I see one in that window . Maybe not the same made but the same size for sure .
Can someone tell me what the toys at 08:15 are please. He said visionaries but wondered if he meant something else. Used to have one of those. Sure you could pull it out of the cloak it came in and it had like a skeleton hologram on them. That shop is like a full on nostalgic trip I love it
Would love to vist, i collected star wars figures back in the day still love the movies, i liked hammerhead figure,xthey made 12 figures at paltoy coalville im from leicestershire myself, i had lightsaber,chewbacca gun, lots more sold them, now i collect vinyls they will not be sold. Cheers guys.
@@ToyOverdosehi i mostly collect, sex pistols,adam ant items, but like many genres,,disco music its okish donna sumner i like, my collection with pistols, has soundcheck, bootlegs, comic,books,and lots more, same with adam and the ants, i love judge dread comics,,star wars was the first thing i collected, lovely items, collectors are decent people open minded to others kind regards.
@@ToyOverdose does charlie have,,luke light saber, chewbacca gun in his collection? I went 100 miles once as a kid with family to get hammerhead, they were days before ebay and the net, we had a caravan at seaside, but we ended going there when i saw hammerhead in the shop, they had big figures at geoff tous back in the day such an amazing shop, we had a shop called fenwicks which sold decent star wars figures as well.
I picked up my action man canoe 🛶 this month along with an action man Navy uniform for an action man i bought earlier this year in need of a new uniform.
What a beautiful, beautiful store that is! Gnarly toy hunt, man!
It's an amazing store, you will have to come over and see for yourself! Thanks for watching Froggy!

Thanks for watching my friend! That's what we are aiming for, nostalgia. And that's a great line from a great film 👍
Same here 😂. Own nothing now, but every cabinet brings back memories of what I had or what a friend had.

I’ve been to a lot of toy shops around the country on toy hunts. The Vintage Toy Monster is definitely my favourite.
It's beautiful! Thanks for watching! 😊
Live down the road from that store. Ian's a great fella. I'm happy he doesn't mind people going in and browsing as I do it all the time 😂
Lived in Portsmouth for a year now, never knew it existed, will go check it out.
Awesome video great footage of a fantastic shop! Worthy of the 100k plus views!
Star wars figures were simply amazing.
Awesome shop...awesome pickups as well. Thanks for showcasing the goods!

Ian is a lovely guy so friendly and his shop is one of the best in the uk for sure

Great haul, my friend. Amazing store.
Thanks for watching!
Lived in pompey for 20 years, moved out of the city a few years back and had no idea that store existed!
I owned that A-Team bad guy with the orange shirt at 6:21 when I was younger - the only A-Team figure I had! Think it may still be around somewhere, Mum recently brought over some boxes of stuff from my old room.
@@rosstee I would get those boxes open immediately 😉👍
@@ToyOverdose Sounds like a good idea 😅
Brick Top Vibes 😎

Wow , great store , love those ' THEY LIVE ' figurines ( what year are they from ? ) ! Thanks !
They Live stuff was only 4 or 5 years old, so not Vintage but still cool!
I never realised this existed down the road from me....
There used to be a place in Lee-On-Solent, near the high street. Is that still there do you know? It's close to where you are in this video. All the best to you.
I have idea I'm afraid we arent local to Worthing, although we did search the area for others and couldn't see anything else!
