If you’re ever in Vermont, I was just at the absolutely insane toy museum in the upstairs of a shop in Quechee Gorge Vermont plaza. They have everything there on display nothing for sale unfortunately but super fun to look through. First time seeing a real ThunderCats lair and much more
I still need to visit that great store!!!
I’d recommend it 😄
Another great video Ed. You can tell Greco hasn't had his playdoah fix he gets grumpy.
He needs his ecto plasm to look alive 😂
@@EdsRetroGeekOut this is very true. And explains alot that stuffs like gold dust these days. Poor Greco just can't catch a break at least he has his emotional support rosie doll
Super video Brother. Amazing store! Thanks for sharing Your Adventures 😀 👍 ♥️ 🌎♥️🎉🎉👏👏🎉🎉💯💯
Thanks for watching 🤘
Another amazing vid, great times and great toys! Sharing on my FB!
Thanks buddy 🤘
Great times!
Always love watching the three amigos get together and if you add if Boston Mike then you get the four turtles lol 🤣. Don't know who would be which turtle though.
Such a good spot 😎 thanks for taking me there
I just took my cousin to Empire this past Saturday. I been resisting getting those Exo Squad figs. I had a couple when I was a teen. The cartoon was great IMO.
I need more exo squaaad 🥹
All of my scenes were filmed on a green screen. I would never actually hang out with these guys in person.
😂😂😂
Lmao !!
I'm just trying to figure out why there wasn't a red carpet ready for you for when you walked into store. That is no way to treat someone of your stature Greco !!!!
😂
Great video once again Ed.
And the CGI toy shelves background behind you looks very real!
😂
Nice vid. Really good see other toylines that were not available in my country. Never saw exo squad here!
Thanks buddy
These Exosquad figures are impressive looking💚🧡 💜❤️. Beautiful pieces!
Beautiful indeed 😄🤘
Great Video. Like Exo-Squad too, interessting that they have Robotech/Macross Bots.
Indeed they had that weird mashup
I’ve been to Empire lots of times! 😮 I can’t believe you went here. It would have been awesome to meet you! I hope you had a great time exploring the toy stores in the U.S.A.
Love that store 🤘
Milo Goes Toyhunting! Love the Descendents shirt
I’d love to go toyhunting with Milo 😂
Any day that a Super Powers figure is obtained is a good day indeed! --write that down, words of wisdom to live by! Haha!
😎🙌 i like it!
EXO Squad is awesome. I have the blue one and the orange one. My brother had the lime green one as a kid.
Epic 😁🙌
Craig we are both from the south! It's fround apon to talk about southerners walking around in sheets! Hahaha
Well I was a ghost for Halloween 🤷🏻♂️
😂😂😂
Cool store😉👌🏽I was in the 2nd grade. And my grandmother created a frickin awesome E.T costume, it was all sewn up and I got to lead the Halloween parade 😄 i still have a pic of it too🥰
Epic 🤘😄
I think I am going to start an Exosquad collection and really focus hard on it. I really like the mech suit concept in general and the colors and stuff really make them appealing for me ! Great video !
Empire toys only add the “Boston mike tax” to get me to come hang out with them lol
I have always loved Power Rangers Role play stuff, from morphers and swords to blasters, I love it all
They had some great stuff 🙌
I always enjoy watching the treasures you find. Much love from Canada.
Thanks so much 🤓🤘
I don’t even collect toys and I still enjoy these videos. Keep up the good work.
Hey Scott. Your lucky u didn’t get bit by the Toy Bug😆 it can be deadly. But It’s super fun 😉👌🏽
Thanks so much 😁🤘
That Mr. Freeze is from the Toy Biz DC Superheroes line, it looks VERY similar to the Kenner Super Powers version.
Ill have to take a closed look 🤔
I concur, that is a Toy Biz Mr Freeze. The Super Powers version came with a light purple helmet. The bio card that came with it also confirms it’s Toy Biz.
I dressed up one time in the He-man death trap costume one year, ‘84 I think it was. The plastic mask with the tiny eye slits that you could barely see out of, vinyl suit that was hot as hell and had you soaked from sweat. The rubber band that held the mask on would always break 10 minutes into trick or treating, then you have to walk around the rest of the time, looking like a little dumbass, holding your mask on by hand. Yeah good times, good times! 😂😂😂😂… Take care Ed 🤘
Those were the days 🙌😁
Awesome video Ed those exo squad 🤘had a few as a kid loved them great pick ups and the mr. freeze figure nice grab as well your right finding him with the dome in the wild would be rare
Thanks buddy 😎🤘
Now I am interested in Exosquad. Looks like it was a good trip. Are you gonna get the new Superpowers by McFarlane Toys. They won't have action features, but they will be the same size almost. Would you consider them Superpowers figures without the action features.
No new toys! 😂
On the next episode of Attic Invaders, Greco buys a comb! And uses it!
😅 spoilers!!
I'm all natural baby!
Great store,video and crew!
Thanks buddy 😁
Oh man, some Real Ghostbusters grails right there! Nice vid as always.
Yeah insane the inventory they have. 🤓
Love it. Found your video randomly as a YT recommendation. I love the TX tour, are you and your crew based in Big D? In any case I love the Cats Lair and Castle of Lions from Voltron and all the role play items you showed. My role play was always a Stormtrooper or Scooby growing up. Decided to subscribe to your channel based on this cool video. Thank you.
Another rad episode dude, would love to get the US some day, the ammount of boxed ghostbusters cos play was awesome and loved seeing the exo squad toys too so many cool toy lines 😎👍🏻
So many cool ghosttraps & proton beam weapons 😁
@@EdsRetroGeekOut I used to have all those ones in your video boxed but I sold them like 7years ago kicking myself now but always the way 😂
WHO YOU GONNA 📞 CALL? TOY HUNTERS.Make noise get toys Ed & the Toy grunts out on the hunt.
Aw yeaaah 🙌😁
Sweet Descendents shirt Ed!
Thanks buddy 🤘
Wow I remember Exo Squad. I had the green and white figure.
Some great pick ups!! Those exosquad figures are awesome
I know right 😄🤘
Hey Ed, if you like exo squad. A few years ago I noticed in A family dollar or a dollar general, some toys that were marketed as something other the Exos. Same molds but completely different packaging. Just something to keep your eyes open for
Love ya man 🤙
Sweet ill look for that 😁
I live 20 minutes from that store and it is fantastic!!
That’s a great place to be so close to 😎🙌

@@EdsRetroGeekOut Thank you.
I had the proton pack and trap . For some reason I remember having some command center were it had some jails and a giant hole in the middle at the top . I know its a playset but I can't think of where it's from
Like the cobra terrortower from gijoe?
@@EdsRetroGeekOut holy shit yes! Thank you for the reply . I just googled it. Been driving me nuts for decades that I couldn't remember it. Not sure what happened to it but my family is a flea market family so I think that's where my grandmother got it for all the grandkids to share .
Retro Rick bought that tmnt massive banner
I was there when he bought it
Sweet video Ed and the store has a very cool name! hahah
😁 I kept thinking of you!
@@EdsRetroGeekOut hahah would love to do a video there.
Solid picks! Head back to the states soon! Awesome content 👍🏼
In October well be back!
That place is like a Mecca for selling toy play sets who else has Voltron’s castle for crying out loud???
Indeed 😄
I was Fortress Maximus one year. Silly costume… plastic face mask and basically a plastic bag with an image of Fortress Maximus on it.
Epic 😄🤘
My brother and I were gi Joes or soldiers, there were tons of Vietnam surplus at that time.
I remember having a rambo set 😎🙌
I had a ninja turtle the Raphael dress up it came with two swords the thing for your waist with the R on it a plastic face and a plastic turtle shell for your back. I just found the pics the other day of me wearing it.
Epic 😁
If your ever in upstate NY. Check out sound go round in vestal NY. There’s always random figures people trade in or sell. They have everything. A lot of random Turtle stuff.
Thanks buddy 🤘
awesome video thank u man
Thanks buddy
@@EdsRetroGeekOut your welcome
I was Darth Vader for Halloween when I was a kid.
I know everything about Exo Squad. LIke that Playmates did not create Exo Squad, it was oddly Universal Animated Studio, Playmates only had the license with ran out years ago. Now Exo Squad is under NBC/Universal. Here in the US Exo Squad is free on Peacock or Sky in other countries. The show was dark, but man is it good for a Saturday morning cartoon made in 1993. Trying not to spoil much main characters could die in this show.
We’re talking about the toys not the show or IP
@@EdsRetroGeekOut A bit of both. The show from Universal Animated Studio a year before the toyline came out. That's why there is no toy on the Resolute One or an Admiral Winfield or Captain Matthew Marcus action figures. seeing how Resolute One was blown up, and Captain Marcus is dead in season two. But Admiral Winfield was still running the Exo-Fleet and forced to make a deal with Simbacca and the rest of the Pirate clan to help fight the Neo-Sapiens. Oh, Captain Marcus, what have you done. But a year after the show was canceled Playmates with the license they got from Universal tried keeping the brand going with Toyline going and got a board game, and Sega Genesis that was not that great and had nothing to do with the story was made as well. The SNES Version of Exosquad was never made but was promised. The show was created by Jeff Siegel who at the time was head of Universal Animated Studio, but was fired weeks before the show was canceled. Jeff is still around doing animation work, but Michael Edens who did most of the writing on the show sadly passed away from cancer last year. Jeff Siegel used to work for Hanna-Barbera when working for Go-Bots wanted to make a new entertainment for young boys and came up with Exoforce, but seeing how that title was already taken went with Exosquad instead. He wanted all the characters to look like they were ready to have toys made out of them. And Playmates went with it. And he gave them the license to make the toys. There is more but I don't want to get into it.
What neighborhood did Boston Mike grow up in and what Parish was he in?
Not sure 🤔🤔
I know of a place here you'd love Ed in Maryland; they have tons of exo squads for 5 dollars and turtles. I just got 5 vintage motu Figs for $5 a pop their yesterday. they had tons of and tons of buckets of 80s and 90s toys for $5 dollars. I don't want to post the name on here; it's sort of a secret place. I can pm ya the name, though. They mainly sell old video games but have a separate section with all vintage toys cheap. I saw Casey jones and tons of 80s turtles all 5 dollars yesterday when going through the bins also exo squads and Star Wars Figs, Ghostbusters Transformers, GI Joe, etc.. If I had an eBay, I could make bank reselling all the stuff they have. They don't seem to know pricing very good their and sell everything super cheap. I got a Vintage Scareglow last week from them also with cape cheap. They even had carded LJN Wrestlers cheap a macho man and 1 other one.
Sounds like a great place to get some retrooow 😄🤘
Holy shoot I was here like one week ago!
How was it?! 🤘🤓
Castle of Lions most important piece is the gold key he didnt check the secret drawer for the key!!!!
Oooh that’s a good tip!
I had the human sword and shield we buried them in my friends yard and forgot where we put them lost forever
R u back in the US..
Not yet! 😄
Grecco never seems to buy anything lol
He’s very picky 😁
@@EdsRetroGeekOut lol I'd say I've watched many of your videos and it's 99% same outcome 😄
