- Tim's toy collection fills most of his flat, stored in around 200 suitcases, arranged in date order. Today he takes down a case labelled 2005, to explore the delights inside...
A mystery object, or a 'Whatsit' - anyone know what this is?
Then a glass prism with a secret - breathe on it and a picture appears - the 2 of Clubs. Could be part of a magic trick maybe?
A monopolar motor, made from a battery, some magnets and a piece of wire.
A magnetic toy that pops up when you place it on a metal surface. But when you take it off the surface, the character vanishes back into the base. Clever.
125 faces in one object - the ultimate finger fidget?
A figure made from clear plastic straws. However internal threads make the figure animate!
Magic matches - two matchboxes, with interconnecting drawers.
The Eiffel Tower as a spinning top.
Continuing the Paris theme, a 3D map of a section of Paris, where the rubber has perished - as Tim says, 'perished but cherished'.
Finally a small rubber frog that has an internal 'croak'. However now it sounds more like a dog!
"Now I must look through my collection to find a dog which croaks, and put the two together"
I love the way Tim's imagination still burns brightly as ever ❤️
I wish Tim was my grandpa, I would love to hear stories about every toy he has
He is your grandpa
I don't think he has children
@@mrsledge He's everyone's grandpa
@@ssj2matt Been looking for this comment
@@lilwonka I haven't, hoping to avoid comments of more young people trying to possess old people in their cutesfy way of disregarding them being thinking beings, and instead see them as quirky and funny unaware elderly they can call "nation treasures" or what have you.
Item No.1 looks like a spring-loaded plug of some kind. Some thermos bottles have a similar mechanism.
That would make sense. It has a tapered end which could couple with a rubber gromet of some sort for WATERTIGHTING.
It's for the sink from the 50's and 60's
The first item is used for expanding the gasket which fits fits around the sprog mount of a Bartley cleave compressor.
this sounds like a rick and morty advert
@@jamontoast1414 yeah, a plumbus indeed!
Make sure to not operate it near any hyper flux engines with quantum nano fiber
🤔🤨 I don't think that's a thing
I like to think that Tim has a magical warehouse that he peruses from day to day 😊
I'm 100% sure the little magnetic pop-up toy is how they made Bakugan toys, because I remember having a Bakugan toy as a kid with the card, and I remember how the card is a bit heavier than normal cards and that my toy magnets stick to them. I then realized that the little Bakugan toys has a magnet at the bottom of the base, and that the card has a metal in it to stick with the Bakugan and have it transform!
Seeing that pop-up toy really throws me back to those days! Such good times.
Edit:
I've also had that straw doll! Only that it was a bear and it was made of wood. If I pull the string from the bottom the bear would move its arms and legs and made it look like it was jumping! I'm pretty sure it's still in my room because I hung it on a little string on my door because it looks cute there.
I actually repair damaged Bakugan! The inner mechanism varies between different years and designs. It's typically a magnet inserted into a movable plastic piece, connected to components that hold a Bakugan's features into that "closed" shape. There's also a spring over the magnet, allowing it to press down onto the card.
Well here in the states we have a tree frog called a Barking tree frog that sound a lot like that toy.
Keep up the good work! I have always love knick knacks, gadgets, and toys, Your channel is like a dream for me.
Tim is the cure to my crippling insomnia. He is just so calming and relaxing
Makes me happy to know Tim's a person after my own heart that has a hard time throwing away things that might've outlived their usefulness, especially when it comes to toys. I'd have a 'cherish or perish' box myself if I was a collector!
Thank you, Tim and the team behind the videos. You all have brought me comfort.
Babe wake up, Tim posted
That is a great top; it lasted a minute and fifteen seconds.
It's this channel season once again I love Tim in this time of the year
Calling Hello Kitty "this little creature" is unneededly funny.
I'm amazed that Tim has maintained his cognitive ability so well at the age of 80. Hope to keep seeing more for a long while.
80 isn’t old!
@@jwall6006
80 is around the average lifespan in most countries and is only 2 decades shy of a century; I'll have to disagree.
The face changing one is so cool! Do they need still sell them somewhere?
believe it or not, there are actually frogs who bark! he doesn’t need to fix the frog, it’s not broken 😉
and the Paris scene that is drooping…that’s art 🤣
and fish chirp.... dont ask me how i know and dont get my mom started, she didnt believe it until she heard it herself!
I feel a strong urge to put the faces pieces in the correct order 😭
I don't think good ole Tim would time travel back because he will lose all his collections and other precious things he holds so dear.
Although he could maybe collect some extra toys that are not available today...
@@grandillusions and if he travels back in time WITH his collection...then he's certainly a wizard of his time with toys the past couldn't even fathom
We had the first one when I was a kid. I remember playing with it in the kitchen about 45 years ago. But other than something for cooking I can't remember what it was for.
maybe an apple pie vent? Put it in the middle of the pie, when steam pressure gets too high under pastry, up it pops either to vent steam or/and notify cook?
That frog made a really good dog bark
Time traveler? Is THAT THING A TINY DALEK?
it’s a souvenir from the Great Time War
Tim holding onto a broken shitty piece of plastic is hilarious. Where's the use in that, Tim?
Love the frog toy!
Some frogs do sound similar to that when they’re threatened and the Vietnamese Mossy Frog kind of has a similar barking, although softer and quieter. 🐸
Your videos are so fascinating
Great videos! I really enjoy them
That last one had me thinking "Hot dog; barking frog; Albequeque"!
Great Scott!
babe wake up Tim's showing off more of his memorabilia
its Time TiM Thamks for sharing
Timothy Quiller Rowett born on July 12, 1942 is a British RUclips personality and renowned toy collector, known for presenting videos about toys, optical illusions, novelties and puzzles on the RUclips channel Grand Illusions. Rowett, known affectionately as "Tim the Toyman", is a former children's entertainer, and claims to have collected upwards of 20,000 to 25,000 toys over a 50-year period, many of which are featured in his videos.
the frog's been dead for 17 years!? ;O
...cos it croaked.
What a remarkable man. Time traveler for certain.
always loved the content :)
Tim back again with another banger
I can't wait until the Christmas Collection Toys to come out!⛄
I was born in December 2005 lol, to see this is cool 😅
I get the impression that if that first thing had rubber around the metal bits, it would contract and maybe hold a weak but fairly effective airtight seal until pulled out (With the little thin handle it creates) of whatever container/toy it was designed for. Not sure what for though, as it would be a very weird design.
I knew he was a time traveler!
Time Lord actually, currently we are watching the 3rd Tim.
Well I shall enlighten you, about what that first item is , That’s a 1970’s baby bottle disposable expander from playtex, that device is used to hold the disposable plastic sleeve and turn it into a usable baby bottle , there’s a few brochures online that you can see how it was used and in the words of Tim , it’s “ quite remarkable “
I have a pond in my backyard. It is filled with hundreds of frogs. I never heard one of them bark yet. If I come across one I will half to send it to Tim. The only problem with this is I live in America. The frog most likely will be dead when it arrives in England. Oh well, it sounded like a good idea at first. LOL!
I like spending time with grandpa
If Tim thinks that popping up cat is interesting then he should invest in some bakugan
The Eiffel tower spinning top is so nice :o And my dog croaked, just once though *ba-dum-tss*
i see what you died there
Thank you
my dog looked quite confused by the sound of the barking frog!
Oh I liked the top.
That white device at the beginning is a baby bottle liner installer tool made by playtex.
Where can I find one of those Hello Kitty pop up toys??? I NEED IT ASAP!!! Help!!!
But what was the FIRST item, Tim?
4:08 5-sided axial symmetry is Lovecraftian
7:22 was my favourite part
Could that first item be some sort of spinning top?
@@manuelh.4147 - now it is obvious, when you say that. 👍
It's a sink plug from 50's and 60's
Sadly, all dogs eventually croak
Dryophytes gratiosus, commonly known as the barking tree frog, is a species of tree frog endemic to the south-eastern United States.
this man is an eldrich horror. in millenium to come he'll still be uploading this shit.
Frogs actually do make a sound very similar to this, a high pitched chirp, but it definately sounds more dog like the more you squeeze it
the whatsit looks like it is used to close a jar or large mouth bottle? try to see if it fits in a 5 gallon water jug
Barking frog 🐸
I think the first thingo is a juicer for citrus fruit. The rubber frog is DEFINITELY barking there. Nice one Tim! 👍🌟
With the 'watsit',could the bottom of it come off and it be some kind of rubber stamp underneath?
For Me and my Mom it looks like a tool to make a little hole in an egg before you cook it. It prevents, that the egg explode. I have no Idea how it is called in english.
Anyway to be an 'little hole in an egg maker' it wohl need a tiny needle. But I can't see one.
Ive been subbed for like 13 years. How do i get my hands on a christmas pack?

i'm guessing the mystery item is a launcher for an airborne toy that floats. 0:12
Pls incorporate the barking frog in next year's intro
i have watched tim for many years
where does he keep getting these toys?
Tim has been a collector of such toys and items for the past 50+ years!
You can watch this interview video here in which you can see his home
ruclips.net/video/KyxP0VvQgOs/видео.html
Tim goes to a number of big toy fairs every year; he also has a wide circle of friends around the world (his Christmas card list is over 150!) and he also goes to more informal puzzle parties, which are private events.
Toy fayres mostly. He goes around the world to visit them.
Not The Tim Traveller 😆 confused me slightly for a second
I'd love to get my hands on one of those Eiffel Tower tops a friend of mine is absolutely obsessed with the Eiffel Tower I think it'd be an amazing birthday present if anybody has an idea where to get one or if they still exist anywhere please let me know
Does Tim drink Sierra Nevada?
Neato
I love the barking frog 🐸
Yhere is such a thing as the barking tree frog
Damn
You never told us what the first item was.

for goodness sake
Tim, please forgive me. The first what is it, is a "whchamagigger" also known as an "idiot's delight. "
I haven't any idea what it is. I really love your channel. As I have said before, thank you for sharing you fascination for wondrous toys and novalties. We all appreciate you and your fascinating hobby.
