I feel that the narrator is unnecessary and sounds quite offputting. It somehow doesn't fit the tone of the show and feels a bit disconnected. Fly on the wall style is engaging without this addition. Love you guys
Love this show because it feels authentic. Feel the voice over makes it feel a little over produced. Like going back a few years to the countless Docu-Soaps that were on TV. Will still watch regardless as it still provides the content we all love.
Also not a fan of the voice over, not necessary. Just an opinion, love you guys and the traditional format. Very comforting and relaxing programming. Keep up the amazing content❤
I wake up every Saturday to watch TF. Weird to say, but i like the toy commercials in between (just like the old Saturday Cartoon days). The narration, I'm not sure of; it felt like watching a National Geography narrated bu David Attenborough. 13:16 "In his natural habitat, a Marvel Man is on a hunt for a Rogue Nightcrawler. Retreating in frustration, findsa a substitute to satisfy his hunger."
Love your videos and look forward to them every Saturday. As for the voice over, not a fan. In my opinion, and it's only my opinion, the descriptions sound more natural coming from you guys. The voice over makes if feel like I'm watching National Geographic.
@@toyfederationto be fair, there are LOTS of your viewers telling you ‘why’ in the comments! Besides, sometimes things just are, they don’t always need a why. 👍
@@toyfederationit’s unnecessary, it feels overly produced when the show is at its best when it just feels like we’re all hanging out with the guys. The commercials and music are great but the narrator idea was a fumble that take away from the “cozy” vibe of the show.
I love this channel and this is difficult for me to say but please go back to the back ground music while showing store items and stop using the commentary voice over. Please
We brought back all the music, we brought back the commercials, we added somethign new to keep the show fresh as views have been off and then we get attacked for it.
@@adamwest3266 Maybe if you weren't anonymously posting I would know who you were, but I wouldn't be a jerk to someone without reason. However, by your comments here I can see a situation where I might have had to be one.
Narrator style doesn't add anything, tonally it's out of place. There's no need to tell us what's going on, we can obviously work that out ourselves. Really liked the last episode where the guys where chatting about organizing the display and sharing their knowledge. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
I was in the hospital for 3 1/2 months from back surgery and an infection. Your videos brought me peace as I absorbed the nostalgia laced dopamine. Your videos helped me heal and rest. Thank you
The regular video's are the way to go, no disrespect to the guy narrating. His voice is cool would be great for like History vids or War Vids just my opinion
Feels more narrative driven as opposed to fly on the wall style. Adds more work to write and record. I guess my feeling is it's interesting but not necessary. But love that you keep it fresh.
The narrator and background music simply doesn't work. Your show was already well presented and real. I don't think anyone that watches wants to see a generic over produced production.
I turned it off after 6 mins that foreigner accent narrated whisper was like fingernails on the chalkboard who in their right mind tho this was a good idea
No it's horrible, I had to stop listening to EDS retro geek out because of narrator please get rid of it please. 😅 You don't need one you've got so popular with your own personalities not this disconnected voice.
Lol the Attenborough voiceover is funny but the original format is best. Ryan needs to hold that Last Action Hero figure for Garrryyyyyyy. One of his favorite movies.
@NCGorija, that is where I first heard it. I did not know about it in day the earth stood still or it being the names of the skiff guys until the early nineties. I never got to see Jedi until 86 on VHS. Never got to see it in theaters when it came out like Star Wars and Empire, so I was not as into the names etc as much as I would have been when I was 9 when when it came out. I didn’t know that was the three skiff guard names til much later.
I appreciate the honesty of your buys Another great episode Imagine to see your show in animated cartoon style That would be awesome Thank you for my Saturday mornings
@toyfederation I love your show. Watch it every Saturday with my kids. The narrator just makes it feel to produced and not organic. I like that your other episodes are just you guys doing your thing.
Still loving toy federation but must agree with most comments, the new narration just doesn’t seem necessary, the way your videos are put together we can always figure out what’s going on in the episode. It certainly won’t stop me from watching if you keep it, but it just doesn’t seem to fit with your style of content. However, at the same time I understand new things need to be tried, and content needs to progress on TH-cam. Keep up the great work guys
To me Toy Federation can do no wrong love all the videos and met you guys recently, thanks for the pictures and for signing my TMNT vintage curtain lol… narration was funny can do with or without it, just don’t stop making videos.
It would be super interesting to have you speak about specific lines, like talk about a specific series of figurines, taking a real deepdive, talking about what to look out for, maybe history behind it or general info, just for example a specific release of GI Joe or Transformers etc.
Just to add, @toyfederation, you guys are super charismatic and do such a great job of explaining what's happening and what you're thinking/adding context for people like myself, who don't necessarily know the history of every item - if anything I'd just like to see even more of you showing your working when talking through everything. The AI doesn't give anything on top of the context that's already evident, and it's quite jarring. You've done an amazing job of keeping the production values high but also making the channel feel intimate, informative and real - the AI narration is, in my humble opinion, undoing so much of what makes this channel so great. Best wishes from London, UK.
This is just what I needed after a night of fighting a Mechanical MEGALADON at a sushi bar with the band I am part of, GWELL-O. Love Saturday mornings in the toy store 👌
I enjoy a good satire of that documentary guy who isn’t that French underwater guy, but his brother is John Hammond from Jurassic park…. But this doesn’t need it. Keep up the great work
'Here we have the Lesser Spotted Nerdus Vulgaris in his natural habitat, sat cross legged on the floor sifting for his prey the Plastic Holy Grail!' 😂 👌
I have been making a Toy biz X Men display for the last year on a huge bookshelf so was cool to see them be shown some love 🤟 P.S i think the voiceover is fine 🙃
I thought the narrator voice at first was a joke because it reminded me of an old BBC nature program. Hopefully it's not every episode. And I could always do more with vintage commercials...
12:46 These 77 and 65 backed figures is confusing to me. People reback magic cards and fool people to get 10s of thousands $, but these figures aren't even questioned
Do you like the new style?
@@toyfederation the narration was a surprise for sure, but a welcome one
yes, the narration is awesome!
I don't like the narrator style
Nope, narrator is pointless and kind of cringe
You mean National Geographic? Of course! 😂
The voice doesn’t go with the feel of the video, the video speaks for itself with just you guys interacting with everyone.
I thought it was fun for the opening of the video but I prefer the natural way the video flows for the rest without a narrator.
I agree the voiceover sucks. Don’t fix what isn’t broken.
Yeah, feel like I’m watching a National Geographic documentary
Not feeling it
Yall are some fucking crybabies
Humorous for a one-off episode, but I feel like it will get old pretty quickly if it becomes permanent.
Don't mess with success.
I feel that the narrator is unnecessary and sounds quite offputting. It somehow doesn't fit the tone of the show and feels a bit disconnected. Fly on the wall style is engaging without this addition.
Love you guys

If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. Loving the show from the UK
It's sad to see what's becoming if the UK
I was gonna complain about the voice, but no sense choking a dead chicken.
No sense choking a live chicken.
But you did
"They stand for justice, just not for themselves." Lol.
"If it ain't broke, don't fix it."
Also not a fan of the voice over, not necessary. Just an opinion, love you guys and the traditional format. Very comforting and relaxing programming. Keep up the amazing content❤
NEVER go full Attenborough
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂 I wouldn’t even go half Attenborough, certainly not where toys are concerned 🤣
The narration ruins the episode, had to skip those parts.
Nah dawg. Jokes.
No narrator, absolutely not.

and you really don't want to say why
@@toyfederationto be fair, there are LOTS of your viewers telling you ‘why’ in the comments!
Besides, sometimes things just are, they don’t always need a why. 👍
@@toyfederationif it ain’t broke don’t fix it. It takes away from the pure honest content.
Ahh god it’s sucks every time it comes on. It’s like commentary for idiots.

Did you listen to this episode?
@@toyfederation You’ve been warned man!
@@toyfederationRyan the toys and the shop are the content. All you can do is ruin it with your nonsense.

Here we see the Nerd in he natural environment such a majestic beast 🖖🏼🤓
When toy collectors become more concerned with resale value than toys themselves...
Still appreciate the show.
I was in the hospital for 3 1/2 months from back surgery and an infection. Your videos brought me peace as I absorbed the nostalgia laced dopamine. Your videos helped me heal and rest.

Ryan has been wearing cargo shorts so long that they came in and out of style and now back again 😂
Can you imagine over his lifetime how many toy pieces he's had in those pockets.
Less is more. Which is what made you guys stand out.
Narration sounds like I'm watching the nature channel. You guys are great enough. No frills needed.
No narrator please, this isn’t the History channel
No it's horrible, I had to stop listening to EDS retro geek out because of narrator please get rid of it please. 😅 You don't need one you've got so popular with your own personalities not this disconnected voice.
The voice over was really really REALLY good-it separated you folk with the other channels and adds a lot of heart to the video
no to the voice over. great vid.
Lol the Attenborough voiceover is funny but the original format is best. Ryan needs to hold that Last Action Hero figure for Garrryyyyyyy. One of his favorite movies.
Guys the narration was horrible. Don’t mess with a winning formula. Even better visuals is almost too much but it’s ok the narration was horrendous.
Klatu Barada Nikto is also the words that Ash has to recite in Army of Darkness to retrieve the Necronomicon…which he totally botches😂😂
Klaatu Barada.... Necktie...... Nickel!! 🤣🤣

The british sounding narrator needs to go...lol. it doesnt match the vibe.
This has become part of my saturday routine.
I hate the Narrator! I hope it's one time only. It's a huge turn-off that makes me want to watch something else.
Not a fan of the voiceover but still love the vids.
I appreciate the honesty of your buys
Another great episode
Imagine to see your show in animated cartoon style
That would be awesome
Thank you for my Saturday mornings
Great content but x out the narration.
What made a narrator necessary?
I dont like the narrator style.
Thanks for watching!
@toyfederation I love your show. Watch it every Saturday with my kids. The narrator just makes it feel to produced and not organic. I like that your other episodes are just you guys doing your thing.
That’s what this episode is as well
Agreed. I prefer the guys talking about toys and going through deals
Me neither 😢
Reminds me of David Attenborough doing a bit for National Geographic or one of those Earth documentaries. I love it!
16:15 drooling over all of the mythic legions figs
The Sir David Attenborough narration doesn't hit quite right...
Still loving toy federation but must agree with most comments, the new narration just doesn’t seem necessary, the way your videos are put together we can always figure out what’s going on in the episode.
It certainly won’t stop me from watching if you keep it, but it just doesn’t seem to fit with your style of content.

Keep up the great work guys
Cringe to narrate episode, like they’re wild animals 😂
Ummm... whats with the silly voiceover?
The affiliate link pop-ups are ten times worse than the narration. And the narration is bad.
Sorry guys,big fan of the channel. Creeped out by the voice. Prefer it if it sounded more like either Tony from Analog Toys or Dave from Toy Polloi.
To me Toy Federation can do no wrong love all the videos and met you guys recently, thanks for the pictures and for signing my TMNT vintage curtain lol… narration was funny can do with or without it, just don’t stop making videos.
Voice over is terrible stop it
Thanks for watching!
@toyfederation the guy ain't lying, it feels like david attenborough telling me about comic nerds in the wild.
If it ain’t broke then no need to fix it……why change a winning formula with a very un English voice over……kinda cringe worthy …..
Is this voice AI ?
Hope you guys get to 100K Subs by 1st quarter of next year.
I'm cheering for ya'll!
Awesome seeing all vintage toys and dc universe toys!! I feel like I've heard the Narrator's voice before
It would be super interesting to have you speak about specific lines, like talk about a specific series of figurines, taking a real deepdive, talking about what to look out for, maybe history behind it or general info, just for example a specific release of GI Joe or Transformers etc.
I'm a dude playing a dude disguised as another dude and there's only one rule never ever ever go full
A.I. Attenborough...
😂😂😂
Really don't enjoy the AI voiceover at all - sounds artificial and adds very little, please revert back to the natural style with no narration!
Just to add, @toyfederation, you guys are super charismatic and do such a great job of explaining what's happening and what you're thinking/adding context for people like myself, who don't necessarily know the history of every item - if anything I'd just like to see even more of you showing your working when talking through everything.

The voice is not good. It breaks the viewer out of the flow and feeling of what is going on.
I hope the narrator is just a one off. It doesn’t really fit the laid back vibe of the videos.
Guys, you don't need VO.
The voice over is not bad, makes the content feel well developed and kinda gives it the feel of an actual tv show. Not bad ❤
Not really fond of the narrator - it’s a bit too serious
lose the brit please
please lose the brit (and i'm british)!
Toy Federation is my Saturday morning go to. Toy store has replaced Saturday morning cartoons for this Generation X'er!!
The British guy's voice over, lends a air of mystery and suspense that's unequaled by any other federation pooptube video 😂❤
I've been a Retail Manager for 30 years. I have started greeting my customers by saying "Howdy" as a tribute to Ryan ❤
This is just what I needed after a night of fighting a Mechanical MEGALADON at a sushi bar with the band I am part of, GWELL-O. Love Saturday mornings in the toy store 👌
You can add 2 or 3 additional stores with all the back stock and STILL have leftovers!
Another awesome Saturday morning. Thank you guys. I forgot about that party bus awesome
I enjoy a good satire of that documentary guy who isn’t that French underwater guy, but his brother is John Hammond from Jurassic park…. But this doesn’t need it. Keep up the great work
Narrator or not toy federation episode is my therapy!
Please lose the narration.
I love the narrator. It's dope .
'Here we have the Lesser Spotted Nerdus Vulgaris in his natural habitat, sat cross legged on the floor sifting for his prey the Plastic Holy Grail!' 😂 👌
I have been making a Toy biz X Men display for the last year on a huge bookshelf so was cool to see them be shown some love 🤟
P.S i think the voiceover is fine 🙃
Where do you get the stands for the 3.75 figure figures that clip onto the feet for figures with no pegs or peg holes ? Love the new displays. Thanks
Not a fan of the narration....maybe it will grow on me, but it seems unnecessary.
I hear those words all I think of is Ash in the graveyard making sure no one's watching him "KLAATU BARADDA N*cough*" lol
The back room looks like the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark 😂
Ive been back there. That's EXACTLY how it feels
I do really enjoy the old commercials for the toys!
It's like watching a David Attenborough Wildlife doco.
I love the Laszlo narration❤
It’s a Bird, It’s a Plane, It’s Marvel Man!!!
Clearly the audience is too young for David Attenborough lol Love it as a one off!
Liked the new format but more as a one off. Fun seeing the old commercials added in again.
I love the david attenborough style nature videos
The narrator voice is done well but it feels so incredibly out of place in your videos
I don’t understand the intense dislike for the narration. It lasts for like 10 seconds and then it’s business as usual.
You should do a video on the most valuable stuff in the store or maybe your personal collection.
No i dont
This show is my Saturday morning cartoons.
I thought the narrator voice at first was a joke because it reminded me of an old BBC nature program. Hopefully it's not every episode.
And I could always do more with vintage commercials...
I’m loving the National Geographic British commentary!
Nope!
Awesome Muta Bus.. Just got a bunch of its accessories in a random lot of TMNT accessories.. Hope to complete a bus soon.
12:46
These 77 and 65 backed figures is confusing to me.
People reback magic cards and fool people to get 10s of thousands $, but these figures aren't even questioned
Sorry, don't care for the narrator.
They spared no expense!!!
