I love how you show everything instead of just what you collect. It was fun to spot spidergwen when I could. I am collecting all of her stuff at the moment.
Yea, as someone who takes this place for granted since I live in So. Cal, that 4th booth you entered always has Marvel Legends, Black Series and GI Joe way early, but they are usually marked up. The Hot Toys (3rd booth) is a crazy one and the owner is really nice but is also always busy...
The second Vendor you went to with all the Hot Toys, In my opinion, is really Money Hungry and I avoid that vendor Completely. I visit Frank and sons all the time and I have gotten to know whom to buy from and whom to avoid. I would avoid him. Don't give him your money. Remember these are California prices.
Bro! I tried buying the Han and chewey hot toy from him and he said it was sold? But yet he still has it there lol he’s a dick to everyone I hear I just walk by his spot now
Coming from a collector of over 300 TBS figures and three different TBS vehicles, about 200 TVC’s, two HasLabs, dozens of Star Wars apparel pieces and accessories I don’t buy from him ever. - The Disneyland Neighbor
Awesome video of Franks! I used to go there so much back at their old location. I don't go so much now because of what you said about the prices. They definitely have high prices on vintage. Maybe to get the casuals. Great video again
Hawkins figure was a San Diego Comic Con exclusive that was bestincollectibles booth Nora " the Neca Lady " always has the beat prices on anything NECA related
I'm glad you enjoyed your visit to the Legendary Frank and Sons, man! I've been going there for years, heck most of my life and I'll tell ya, you never get sick of going. At the same time we who live is Southern California are spoiled to have places like F&S because it's always within reach and instead of going to places like Ebay or whatever, we just think, "Hey I can probably find this, there." Anyways, it's always a pleasure seeing people from out of state to see this toy/collection wonderland we have here and feel the enthusiasm they have when they see all the cool shit. I was right there with you brother! Anyways, The video was a delight to watch. New subscriber and definitely a "Like" Take care!
@Seth_Bayer Dude! I was thinking that too lol. The next time you come here, you should go to a local Walmart or Target or heck even a Ross, buy yourself 1 or 2 suitcases and boom, buy all the cool toys you want! 😁 Well... maybe 1 suitcase. Your wife might kill you if you get 2 😅😆 Take care!
Lived in Southern California most of my life... frequent trips to Frank and Sons... I always hit it up on my annual visits home and never leave empty handed. I have had to buy an extra suitcase to get it home before! lol
When I used to live in California, I was at Frank's twice a week. How I would love to have a Frank's here in the Houston area. Back in the day, prices were a lot better.
There's the answer why regular buyers.regular collectors can't find anything anymore at stores ...cause most of it goes to places like this to sell it over priced and people keep paying those prices cause you won't find ever anything at stores....
Frank and Sons is, in my opinion, the place you go to when you absolutely need to have a thing and you know your going to pay top dollar. Really hard to get good deals there anymore.
Depends, if its rare and hard to find and there isnt a lot of them then hell yea they gouge people. But with common figures you can get good deals. You just have to wander and look for them
Seth my Man, I'm also Speechless! You'd gone Solo Toy Hunting, at Frank & Sons Collection Show!? Hands Down one of the Biggest & Coolest Place Ever, in California!!! Inside Frank & Sons, they got Everything you could Imagined and dreamed about. They had Ginormous Stuff everywhere in there, on your Channel! Starting from Vintage Toys, New Toys, Hot Toys, and many more. Truly Mind-boggling & Epic!!! I had a Blast! Amazing Video as always, Friend! 😎 🙌 👌👍👍
Almost better than any toy Con. and it's FREE. i can believe you went by your self. that place is an event. If i go i'll come out of there crying cuz' i wanna buy it all !!!!!
Oh man. It would’ve been cool to run into you there. It’s overwhelming but it’s a great experience. It’s a great place to spend half the day at and find any and everything you’d want.
Awesome video, that place looked like a collectors paradise!!!! You sounded like Sheamus a few times when you said aisle after aisle lol. Do you recommend bringing an extra suitcase if visiting that place if you’re from out of town? Thanks for the video and can’t wait till the next one!
I would say road trip on a buss and just have fun haha maybe when I retire I heard the good things and bad things about Frank and sons , but that booth with the BAF looked great.
Bro I live 5 mins away I used to go when it was at the other location and every seller there is way over priced and all assholes. It’s so sad because they have so much cool stuff but won’t sell for decent prices
Hey buddy I hope you had a good trip and a safe trip back home awesome store 😮man every where you look stuff in every which way the wrestling section the marvel ohh man the turtle section would like to clean that section out every thing in that section I need the two packs and some of the movie turtles the neca figures were awesome the cases the batman figures were awesome 👍🤘😎 can't wait for your next awesome video 👍
Alot of vendors do overprice stuff you gotta be a regular to get the deals luckily I know some vendors there that always hook it up but other then that place is chill
Whenever you go back to crank and sons you think you may look for the terminator t-1000 neca, not the motorcycle fit one the other one, the police cop fit one, let me know bro, love your vids!! Keep it up!!!
Was also going to say the same thing, I saw the lady had the neca t-1000 but the moto one not the og fit, hope he can help us out and look for a vendor who sells the one your looking for!
Frank and sons was the first place to ever give me a headache to much stuff to focus on the old location had more stuff but no AC glad you finally went.
Great video. That place was awesome. I recently picked up the NECA Stump Leatherhead, I'm considering the Mondo Gecko. I just don't know about the Stump Turtles they're kinda expensive
(Smiling): You looked like a small fish in a big pond. Welcome to my neck of the woods. Not toy related but next time check out our other big shopping districts in the LA basin. For example, the flower district and the fashion district. Did you have a chance to check out other places while you were visiting Southern California (SoCal)? If so, where? - The Disneyland Neighbor.
Man, im so happy you got to visit that place! As an East Coaster as well, this place is a bucket list. You could film content for life living near there! #staylegendary & much ❤❤ brother.
Great toy hunting I wish I was there I would have picked up that Jack Burton from the movie Big Trouble in Little Chinatown town figure not very often I see figure like that where I live where I live in Canada
That's an amazing store. However, whenever a place has literally "everything" you can expect the prices to be high to crazy expensive for most of the stuff. But great toy hunt! 😊
They should have a "ship station" in their trade show.... many big trade shows do it and they are a 365 trade show... lets tourists like Seth ship stuff back home right from the source. One of my dreams is to build a better version of Frank and Son's one day... it would def have a ship station in it
Hey does anyone know how much the vendors sell most of the regular Gi joe classified series figures and the vehicles for just to know how much I should bring!!
I never understood why this store concept didn't take off more. You have so many anchor stores empty these days that it seems like those locations would be perfect especially here in Florida where it is too hot to go to some of the outdoor flea markets.
The dude that has a lot of good stuff in the beginning of the video over taxes on almost all his stuff 😢 double to tripple the price, and he also runs that retro shop that you were in on the second clip. They are both way overpriced
You have to slow down your camera. Viewers want to see what you’re looking at. You don’t focus on anything long enough for it to register. It’s frustrating, you’d probably get more views if you slowed down.
Love seeing peoples first time going to Franks
Thanks. I can't wait to go back. Next time I will be more prepared
Awesome haul, i live in Texas but i have family in California so im definitely going out there my mind is blown,
Thanks. You should try and make it out there
I love how you show everything instead of just what you collect. It was fun to spot spidergwen when I could. I am collecting all of her stuff at the moment.
Cool. Good luck on your collecting journey
Love me some Frank & Sons. Glad you dug it. I would have been super stoked to run into you there, for sure.
That would have been cool! I wasn't sure if I was gonna have the time, but glad I did
Frank and Sons is epic! Happy you got to take us on the journey. Great Haul too. Hope to go there one day.
It sure was. I will have to plan another trip again in the near future

@louismele46 he is Bro. Your best bet is a vendor spot Named Toy arena. Great Items and good prices.
Yeah, I asked about a few and he said they were for display and not for sale
That place is full of slimy sellers
Coming from a collector of over 300 TBS figures and three different TBS vehicles, about 200 TVC’s, two HasLabs, dozens of Star Wars apparel pieces and accessories I don’t buy from him ever.

Excellent video!, greetings from California!….
Thank you. I hope to visit again soon!
Awesome video of Franks! I used to go there so much back at their old location. I don't go so much now because of what you said about the prices. They definitely have high prices on vintage. Maybe to get the casuals. Great video again
I had a lot of sticker shock when asking about the prices
That first dealer with all the overstuffed cases have waaaay overpriced items mostly old and even loose and it’s still waaaay overpriced …
The best show I ever saw.
agreed
Hawkins figure was a San Diego Comic Con exclusive that was bestincollectibles booth Nora " the Neca Lady " always has the beat prices on anything NECA related
Neca lady has always been a gem at Frank and Sons. Always has reasonable prices and good stock of stuff.
for what I saw at the other booths, yes. her prices were fair
She is really cool.. and does have the better NECA prices
Awesome place! Your reactions were hilarious. I was saying the same thing every time you turned the corner.
hahaha. It was very overwhelming
Frank & Sons looks awesome! I would not know what to do with that many toys around me.
Do what I did, panic. lol
That place is huge awesome toy haul and hunt.
Thanks!

Awesome video. Good hunting & nice trophies. So jealous right now. Lol.
🤘
Watching this video is making me want to make the trip to Frank and Son's this weekend. Love going there.
cool place
Wow, just wow! 🔥
That's all that can be said
@@Seth_Bayer You had some BIG eyes in that video my friend! Great stuff man!
The sixth scale vendors always blow me away.
Yep. I was in total shock at the stuff they had
Welcome to Cali and franks - this has been a collecting institution the last 30 years or so
Thanks, I had a great time
this was sweet vid bro
Appreciate it
Lived in Southern California most of my life... frequent trips to Frank and Sons... I always hit it up on my annual visits home and never leave empty handed. I have had to buy an extra suitcase to get it home before! lol
I wish I would have known. I could've used one. lol
I live local and that place is overload to the brain and pocket book. Glad you got to experience it for your particular niche stuff that you like.
Local is the best, it's like christmas year round!
When I used to live in California, I was at Frank's twice a week. How I would love to have a Frank's here in the Houston area. Back in the day, prices were a lot better.
Nice, yeah the prices were a little rough on some things

The trading card booth is my favorite booth
Did you used to have a different channel?
Yes, I left and started my own
Almost better than any toy Con. and it's FREE. i can believe you went by your self. that place is an event. If i go i'll come out of there crying cuz' i wanna buy it all !!!!!
I would agree with that statement
Frank and Sons is amazing I go a few times a year!
Awesome!
That white box EarthWormJim , @22:57 under the DeathsHead is 🔥
the section with the RED X support beams,, they have signings,,, once in a while.

Banger after banger

I would say road trip on a buss and just have fun haha maybe when I retire I heard the good things and bad things about Frank and sons , but that booth with the BAF looked great.
I have spoke with the guys about this for years. getting an RV and stopping at stores along the way
Bro I live 5 mins away I used to go when it was at the other location and every seller there is way over priced and all assholes. It’s so sad because they have so much cool stuff but won’t sell for decent prices
I'm Glad You're Happy Brother Stop By Again Anytime 👍

Thank you sir. Best of luck on your travels
@@Seth_Bayer at least I met you once at megacon at bitz and buttons booth for thundercats lol
Great video, I got family in the LA area. You should do another trip to California.
Oh i will for sure
Frank and sons was the first place to ever give me a headache to much stuff to focus on the old location had more stuff but no AC glad you finally went.
There was alot to take in
Great video. That place was awesome. I recently picked up the NECA Stump Leatherhead, I'm considering the Mondo Gecko. I just don't know about the Stump Turtles they're kinda expensive
Very cool!

I sure did. Thanks. I had a great time. I was only able to go here and check out Toy Depot. That's all I had for time
Brother do you mind sharing the brand/style of your glasses - they're great. Excellent video, hope to visit there one day. Subscribed!
If I could remember I would tell you
Man, im so happy you got to visit that place! As an East Coaster as well, this place is a bucket list. You could film content for life living near there! #staylegendary & much ❤❤ brother.
Definitely!
loved that place, but the prices... yikes. things you can get at Walmart marked up $40+ over retail is just wild. not even worth the drive anymore.
Yeah I got that vibe the more I walked around
First off is that 👌
Most people should go there with a set budget. An leave all credit cards home. [ Ssssht ]
✌NICE VIDEO✌
Cool place 🔥🐉
Well said!
Great toy hunting I wish I was there I would have picked up that Jack Burton from the movie Big Trouble in Little Chinatown town figure not very often I see figure like that where I live where I live in Canada
I did want that, asking was too much
That's an amazing store. However, whenever a place has literally "everything" you can expect the prices to be high to crazy expensive for most of the stuff. But great toy hunt! 😊
Yes. great place, but some of the prices, woof!
great items but um no prices
Yeah, I had to ask for the pricing in most of the booths in there
Damn I was gonna go this week also
😭
Can you negotiate on prices there?
Yes, if the vendor is willing
Hear me out: the crew rents a bus to travel to this store. Seriously though, that place looks incredible.
Hahaha. I have been saying we do that for years and find the best store in each state and stop along the way
My old stomping grounds!
🤘
They should have a "ship station" in their trade show.... many big trade shows do it and they are a 365 trade show... lets tourists like Seth ship stuff back home right from the source.

yep! I had some time
I never understood why this store concept didn't take off more. You have so many anchor stores empty these days that it seems like those locations would be perfect especially here in Florida where it is too hot to go to some of the outdoor flea markets.
Yeah. That would be a great idea
A lot of yeeting. Crazy overwhelming. I wouldn't know where to start
I yeeted up and down each esile. lol
Oh yeah....3 hours is about the average time to spend at Franks and Son's. I've been there several times and I can spend hrs there.
I could have easily spent more time there
Seth about to fly home with 5 layers of clothes on to get the extra luggage room lol
Almost. lol
I guess no robo cop gun prop yet
No sir! Still on the hunt for
You mean like that Snake Pliskin figure from EFNY, Seth if I was a Kurt Russell fan I would be all over that.
🤘
In this store there is nothing you can't find here, from vintage to modern.
True statement
I'd be broke if I lived near there.
me too
Shit
A Jack Burton hot toys? And in my backyard? Am wheel-chairing there
You should!
The dude that has a lot of good stuff in the beginning of the video over taxes on almost all his stuff 😢 double to tripple the price, and he also runs that retro shop that you were in on the second clip. They are both way overpriced
Yeah man. Taxes in Cali are crazy
That place is very cool, but your opinion is dead on, it's very expensive.
Yeah, It's was shocking to see what some booths would charge for things
@@Seth_Bayer Yeah for real. Definitely a good place to walk around and look and maybe get an item or two but I'd go broke quick in there. Lol
You have to slow down your camera. Viewers want to see what you’re looking at. You don’t focus on anything long enough for it to register. It’s frustrating, you’d probably get more views if you slowed down.
Noted! I let my excitement get the better of me
That store is incredible. They should really have a cover charge
Frank n sons is trash and overpriced. Wey better back in the day at there old location.
Cool to check out, but yeah somethings were overpriced
