That lunchbox is definitely my favorite find. I can't believe it was still there. I'm sure if it had the thermos, it would have sold for sure. Great job with the vid Rick! 👍
It's actually crazy how collectable cards are right now. 90s Marvel cards extremely value now and the space jam cards are through the roof. Glad they're finally getting the value they deserve, great memories collecting.
If you haven’t checked out his 10 game challenge, than you should, you only need an initial investment and to go to thrift stores or marketplace and you can start a collection. I have over $500+ worth of games and consoles for free because of his tips!
@@kristinbartlett8541 I have done pretty well too cause of his tips, but his tactics don't work everywhere. Thrift stores in my area only stock before opening and there are several people for each store that line up an hour minimum before open and snag everything. I can't be there at open, because of school and work. So I've had to build my collection through Craigslist and FB marketplace. Up to 16 console variants and about 200 games, and I'm in for about $1000 total. Working on selling a few things to bring that number down, but $10 isn't possible for everyone.
Yea I've used some of his tips but where I live it's hard, I've had to use Yard Sales, Garage sales, estate sales and Craigslist to get mine. So far in 2 years time, value on my collection according to GameEye is close to $15k. Not bad for only doing it a little over 2 years. I started watching Retro Rick only about a year ago I think.
@@optimusmagnum yeah I started watching Rick's channel in like June 2020 and started my collection around the same time. I'm up to about $6k in value probably. It's been fun. I completely missed garage sale season, so I'm really excited for that this summer.
I have a lot of football cards and baseball cards from the 90's and some late 2000's cards. Definitely have to see how much they are now since the popularity is coming back.
My wife collects vintage Pyrex bowls, and I collect vintage bar ware. I was jumping up and down and yelling at the screen when I saw the complete set with carrier in your video at 7:21 - stuff like that would easily cost $40+ in California!
Rick, can't believe you didn't buy the Pigs In Space lunchbox!!! That is epic! Would love to have that. When I was a kid all the lunchboxes were metal, like the Fonzi and McDonald's ones you passed over during your trip.
I remember collecting the set of Batman glasses from McDonald’s while I was in the Air Force in Delaware. So many great finds n sometimes the memories that come to us by seeing items 🤘🏻😎
the best thing i found thrifting so far was 3 sealed xbox 360 games for $3 each, I've sold 2 of them on ebay. I got $15 + shipping for one and $25 + shipping for the other (cdn), your $10 method really works (when your city is not under tight corona restrictions)
I started to LOL when you put back the heavy mental magazine and then played the back to the future clip "ooh la la". I laughed so loud my wife asked what's so funny and she was in the next room over.
The Showbizz Pizza Place jarred me a bit because we have those exact characters at a place called Billy Bob's Pizza Wonderland here in WV! II had never heard of that other name before! Super cool
Lego Battles was one of my favorite lego games. Just a sick RTS game where theres 3 different eras, but the copy i had i gave it to some kid that never gave me back my cool stuff-
18:11 That Lebron figure is a Todd McFarlane figures which followed Starting Lineups which ended production in 2000. Also you may think of getting those ball card sets since these junk wax and sets are skyrocketing on eBay
Love GameCube stuff. Had one years ago and ended up selling a good portion of the games and regret it. I have bought a few back. Wouldn't mind starting a GameCube collection but I have no space at the time.
I had my mother ask my aunt if she had any of her old stuff she would want to sell. She brought a random box over mostly cords and stuff (she hasn’t went through all of it) but it has a dang GameCube gameboy player and start up disc. I’m at pumped.
Your secrets out Rick. They are finding you in public now. Even in Ark, you gonna have to grind twice as hard now lol. Everybody wanting a piece of the pie now lol!
I collect video games and I’m only 11 but I already have a gaming shelf with an original Xbox, a Nintendo 64, a ps1, a bunch of tiger handhelds but I have a lot lore
I collect SO much stuff. I collect DVD, Blu Ray, and 4K UHD movies. Wouldn't mind adding some VHS but space is an issue with a 300+ DVDs. I recently got a 4K TV and UHD disc player and while at first skeptical I'm now a believer. Movies look (and sound) AMAZING in this format! Right now my 4K collection is small but hope to grow it in the months to come. REALLY like the Steel Books (especially the store exclusives) that come out. Never seen one at a flea market but anything's possible (did find one at a used book store awhile back). Would keep an eye open as some of these, like the Best Buy Logan Steel Book, go for $100 or more on eBay! I have a massive comic book collection that goes back to the early 90s (still reading and collecting today). My comic collection would be a little larger but I sold some off a long box or two in my late teens, early 20s, when I was too cool for anything but running around and going on my little adventures. Early Todd McFarlane and Jim Lee ANYTHING is what got me hooked. Would love to get some of those books graded but it's SO expensive. Last time I checked I had in the neighborhood of +5,400 books and graphic novels (and growing!). Also a HUGE music nerd, again going back to the 90s, with 500+ CDs. Kind of sad that modern cars don't even come equipped with players anymore (and stores are phasing out the CD section!). Need to transfer everything to digital but it's SO time consuming! I'm more into vinyl these days, with my collecting going back to the early 2000s when I first started to DJ (lots of white label releases). I currently have 600+ records in my collection (all genres and time periods but with a passion for Electronic Music). Then there's action figures with a heavy assortment of modern pieces (mostly Star Wars, Marvel, and DC) and some vintage (GI Joe, He-Man, Transformers, anything 80s). Most of my 90s collection got sold to fund my teenage/early adult adventures mentioned earlier. I have somewhere around 400+ figures, vehicles, and playsets (mostly in the package). There's few 1980s GI Joe figures I hope to get graded one day. Really need a room like yours to display everything properly as most items are currently boxed up (sad face). Last, I did have something of a video game collection with games from PS1, PS2, PS3, and PS4 covering all PlayStation eras. There was also some N64, Super NES, and Wii for Nintendo. Most of the older stuff got sold so now I'm left with just my PS4 titles. Watching your channel makes me want to buy back some of my older games and build the collection up again. Think I'm going to need more space though! Especially if I want to showcase everything or play retro games. I LOVE your game room!! You should do an episode where you give a tour (if you've already done this my apologies). Anyway, keep doing what you're doing. LOVE the show!!!
I am a HUGE star wars collector my collection is worth $80,000 to $100,000 and I'm just starting to move on to a 2nd room to fill up with star wars collectibles.
Hi retro Rick I just wanted to share with you my cousin got their first system Nintendo switch he was so cute he's only 8 years old his mom used to play the old school Nintendo and he said she was the queen he said I am going to be the king of the Nintendo game just thought you liked that hope you're having fun game hunting I love watching your videos Amber
Well, Heavy Metal aren't "these" kinds of adult magazines. They're comics that just aren't made for kids (and yes, some feature erotic and explicit material). There are even two movies and an early 2000s video game based on the comics, one is actually good. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_Metal_(magazine)
Something crazy that I collect would be Disney Aladdin VHS Tapes. Iv'e got over 170 copies of the same tape haha. Just uploaded a new movie room tour for 2021 if you would like to see them all! Love all the videos keep up the great work! You also inspired me to do my own $10 game collection, I gave you credit at the start :)
Favorite pickup for this trip would be the ds games, honestly you ahould of grabbed that 2ds. 100 for everything was a real good deal. Just the ds if it works goes for 60-80 or even more.
You don't know about Heavy Metal magazines. Some of the best comics art ever exist in the pages of Heavy Metal. It does contain adult content but is not bad, way more violence than the other explicit stuff.
What a great thrift store!! I loved seeing the vintage electronics and Fonzie lunchbox. Also, love those Batman glasses.
That lunchbox is definitely my favorite find. I can't believe it was still there. I'm sure if it had the thermos, it would have sold for sure. Great job with the vid Rick! 👍

15:06 “crappy sports games” Scott the woz would be very disappointed that you passed up on Madden 08!
I still collect movies on DVD/Blu-ray even though most people nowadays think that it is crazy to do so.
I’m almost at 1200 😂
3000 going strong (me and my dad collect together)
@@woodyonareal Awesome! I'm at close to 8,000 movies and close to a 1,000 different TV shows (seasons).
I'm in to collecting video games and my family found a gamecube with resident evil 4 so that's what I'm going to collect games.
Huh?
Whatchu talkin bout Willis?
I came across your channel on accident and love it. I'm a video game collector and wish I could build my collection more, but I'm too broke

Lol..” looks like it’s never been used”....didn’t notice “Penny” scratched in Ronald Mcdonalds hair!!!!!
I’m starting to collect vintage lunch boxes. That show biz box is a collector’s dream. Awesome find!!!!!!!😀🕹
I have a lot of football cards and baseball cards from the 90's and some late 2000's cards. Definitely have to see how much they are now since the popularity is coming back.
Very cool finds! Been looking everywhere for gamecube games, so hard to find and so pricey at times. Awesome vid!
I collect old hay hooks, lived on a farm as a kid and now when I see at thrift or estate sale I pick em up
Don't no what a hay hook is we were to poor i guess but it sounds cool lol
What’s a hay book? Curious.
It's a tool for moving hay bales, envision a foot long steel hook on the end of a crossbar
They're dangerous, i'd scrap em.
@@hman962 lol, every tool is dangerous used incorrectly, these are still made and used to this day

OMG THAT DONNIE DOLL 😂 I had that as a kid growing up! You brought back all the early 90s feels in that one!
Can't wait for future episode of home remodel to extend your game room lol
Yea its time to tear some walls out
Are we totally ignoring the fact that "penny" was etched on the clowns head lol
Pennywise......
Broheim!
Night at the Roxbury! I love that film as well! Hardly anyone I know has seen it. Great channel Rick

Awesome find of that Showbiz Lunchbox! I've made a few replica light up Showbiz signs myself.
Good haul, as always! DS games were a really decent deal. Almost anything Mario holds value.

I collect basketball cards becuase when I was young I spend hours and hours with my grandfather going through them.
You can re-use that McDonald's calendar in 2026. The days will be the same.
I love to weird action figures toys and weird video games and weird soda glass bottles and more.
That Stay Weird poster is rad!!!!!Get IT!!!!
Retro Rick I love the stuff find it brings back memories on a lot of the stuff you find thank you
I had my mother ask my aunt if she had any of her old stuff she would want to sell. She brought a random box over mostly cords and stuff (she hasn’t went through all of it) but it has a dang GameCube gameboy player and start up disc. I’m at pumped.
17:18 He doesn't pick something up because it isn't $5 but then he buys a $25 lunchbox??? 🤣🤣🤣
Got to have that lunchbox man, couldn’t sleep after I passed it up 😂
@@retrorick I collect vintage metal lunch boxes so all pre 1985

1:22 are those sweat pants with cuffed bottoms I see in the door reflection? This man is going all in on the Retro!
Back issues of Heavy Metal are totally worth getting!
15:06 that X-men movie DVD maybe a Best Buy steel book version you passed up.
That lunchbox is rad dude! 🔥
I've got a lite brite collecting dust and extra pegs. Just no dark paper. 😂 I need to use it for a night light.
Heavy metal mags should of got there just adult comics like fantasy and adventure comic magazines. The artwork was always amazing.
I have to admit that I have the thermos that goes with that Beegees lunchbox 🙈😄
finding old games in my hometown is rare because mostly people dont sell there old games or system often
This Batman forever McDonald’s glass! Great finds Retro!
I am a HUGE star wars collector my collection is worth $80,000 to $100,000 and I'm just starting to move on to a 2nd room to fill up with star wars collectibles.
I used to go to showbiz all the time and play arcades. 😂
Sweet pickups - I still have my Mario Alladin lunchbox - themos and all!
Nice dude! I don’t know why I love them so much but I have to pick them up when I see them!
That lunch box is so awesome
I love those glasses I still have some at my parents
Dude, OMG showbiz was the birthday place for me,totally miss it. Good haul
Haha I read “showbiz was the birthplace for me” 😂
Dude, the Showbiz lunchbox find was incredible.
That tail spin cup look amazing I would of definitely got it for 8 but I remember playing the megadrive game and love it as a kid
I love your videos especially your edits and finds.

Love the Showbiz lunchbox! I had my 4th birthday there 🥳
You got the strength of He-Man and you got the power.
I would love to have that Cabbage Patch Kid phone. That's so rad.
It's hilarious you found the pepsi glass because Hannah (as in Tendo and Hannah) bought the same glass in Arizona earlier this week.
I just got 9 game cube games at the thrift. 2 bucks each. My son will be excited
Hey Rick! Figured I tell you. I scored 52 Xbox 360 games for $30. Just sold NCAA football 14 for $150 that was in that collection.
Weirdest thing I collect is' Great Lakes Avengers' comics and memorabilia.
That Varsity Blues blu-ray is OOP, doesn't sell for a whole lot, but it's still a good $10-$15. If you can get it for a good price, might be worth it.
That lunch box is awesome. I have a few of the tokens
Actually Showbiz Pizza is what is now known as Billy Bob's Wonderland now has the same characters and as far as I know the original show still.
That lunchbox is awesome!
9:24 I 1000 percent would have bought that Alf cake pan!!!
I still have the Batman Forever Batman glass mug and it's beautiful still.
I say the batman glasses they are cool . & I also love & collecting old video game system as well.
I love your hunting videos, my area is a wasteland...without you, gotg and sprooch i'd be so so bored.
I actually just watched sprooch's video today where he found the Pokedex lol
I’d be interested in the Batman Forever glasses..all 4 of them 😁
You got some great stuff i like the batman glasses
Me: Imagine Retro Rick starts collecting retro “adult magazines”
Retro Rick: it’s all about the retro stuff and nostalgia.

I was just making a joke. It was funny when he said “adult magazine”
Some people do collect them.
I watch this video on my B-day. I liked that Power Rangers Dino Thunder MegaZord you but back.
Where I live there is a billy bobs wonderland and that lunchbox reminds me of that
I found one of those big power ranger megazords at a church sale for 25 cents he's been chilling on my back porch since
I had that exact same boom box back in the day
I'm soooooo jealous I need a show biz pizza lunch box
Nice a dino thunder mega zord one of my favorite power rangers shows when I was younger and still the best one in my opinion as well as SPD.
I had that Two-Face glass for years. Not sure what ever happened to it.
Of course for me it was the Batman Forever Cups, cuz I'm a die hard Batman fan and than the lunch box was so 👌
somebody used an eraser to write "Penny" in Ronald McDonald's hair on the cover of the calendar 13:36
Something crazy that I collect would be Disney Aladdin VHS Tapes. Iv'e got over 170 copies of the same tape haha. Just uploaded a new movie room tour for 2021 if you would like to see them all! Love all the videos keep up the great work! You also inspired me to do my own $10 game collection, I gave you credit at the start :)
Highway 35 Junk Hunt is this weekend. Maybe I'll run into you out there in the wild?
I had the showbiz lunchbox as a kid
I collect Tamagotchi's/virtual pets, especially from the 90s!!
Just picked up a couple Batman glasses today...haha great pickups this week
Favorite pickup for this trip would be the ds games, honestly you ahould of grabbed that 2ds. 100 for everything was a real good deal. Just the ds if it works goes for 60-80 or even more.
currently enjoying Mario vs Donkey Kong on my subway rides to and from work ... great game
