Great solid list! My dad built a large collection of western stage coaches and early automobiles out of matchsticks when I was born (74) They will be gifted to me someday.
Best toy on the list ALSO comes with the BEST STORY on the list! ‘They’ say, “toys are for kids” - but here’s a case of an adult father & son sharing creating a cherished memory that will last a lifetime. Thank you for sharing such a personal moment! Cheers! Merry Christmas, happy New Year and hopefully 2025 is filled with even more wonderful stories for you & yours!!
Ok, I agree with your number one, what an amazing set just in itself. However I can fully understand the sentiments that come with the gift, as a father to son moment only become more precious as time passes as we realise our mortality. A great year for the channel, glad to have shared the ride!
Great video tony This channel is one of my only pleasures the nostalgia i love it i have had a terrible year my dad died of lung cancer and 2 month ago we found my mother dead on the kitchen floor then my beloved partner of 34 years got diagnosed with cancer These bring me a welcome break and relief from it all so have a fantastic new year and please keep the content rolling in Best wishes
As a Dad of 2 boys, whom I have inspired to become collectors in their own right, I can say that when the time is right giving your child something from the collection that means a great deal to both is an amazing emotional and satisfying thing. To be able to talk about it see the appreciation in their eyes...its truly the BEST! Fantastic video All the best in the New Year Happy hunting!!!
Damn it, Tony. You got me all emotional with your #1 pick. That's a beautiful story, and I'm happy for you. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family.
I don't blame you for getting emotional getting that gift mate, my dad is leaving me his ReSaurus Speed Racer collection including mint sealed Mach 5 race car and that made me extremely honoured because he's a die hard Speed Racer fan and still gets giddy over getting Speed Racer stuff. Ironically most of the collection I bought for him anyway so it'll be funnier getting those back but those are gonna have a special spot in the display along with his picture because it was his favorite anime series from when he was a little boy.
Great to see you getting into Super Powers, it's still one of the best superhero toy lines and it's always nice to see it getting another fan. Happy New Year.
Tony, your production value is next level. Your photography is beautiful. There’s a good mix of stills and movement. Your cutaways aren’t too jarring or overwhelming. Your transitions are flashy and fun-quality, quality, QUALITY stuff.
Earlier I wished you a Merry Christmas. Just wanted to say that I love your videos. I’ve been watching for a few years now. Loved seeing you get emotional. I too have a collection that will go to my sons someday. I think they will be as appreciative as you are! Bee well and happy holidays to all!
So much great stuff, Tony! The restoration of the Hulk Rage Cage box looks fantastic. Great story about your Dad's toy soldiers- that's special, I've missed my Dad the last few years since he's been gone. Enjoyed the Palitoy Death Star episode & all the history, as I have so many of your episodes!
Beautiful list! The look and feel of Vintage toys fill out the imagination in way that many modern toys miss. The extreme detail, the comprehensive play features and the quality make for Beautiful and fulfilling works of art. Again, great list of some beautiful toys.
Never stop being you mate, your one of the most earnest 'tubers out there and you set a great role model for any bloke watching. All the best in the new year Tony.
Great list! You’re a lucky bloke to have such a wonderful moment with your dad. Thanks for a great year of fantastic videos! All the best to you and your family! Have a happy new year!
Great list! This year I managed to add both a Defiant and Terrordrome to my GI Joe collection, along with a good amount of figures and smaller vehicles. Happy New Year!
A few weeks ago I found a vintage Kenner Death Star, complete with the box (minus the trash compactor foam pieces obviously) at Goodwill for 300 bucks. I wasn't even looking for toys at the time and while it's not a grail piece for me I just could not let it go. The top part of the box is damaged but the rest is in decent shape. Debating if I want to attempt any repairs to it or leave it as-is. Of course the bigger issue for me is where to put it. I don't have any big pieces like this for that very reason. I really would like to have it on display though instead of inside the box, up in the attic. It was a unexpected Christmas gift to myself..lol. Cheers, mate.
What an amazing video, love the number 1, what a beautiful reason for being top of your list and highly personal of you to share it. Have a great new year and here’s to 2025 being a good one!
Kind of list i love because i also checked out of modern day toys,music and movies about 10 years ago yet i still find new (old) toy lines,music and movies that bring me more joy than their modern counterparts.
That was amazing video, I love your content. Thanks for sharing your collection and your stories with us. Keep putting it out I'll keep watching. Happy New Year's to you .
Oh my god, seeing "Geyper Man" has just unlocked some memories. I remember as a child hitting the motherload of Geyper Man gear in a Thoms discount store, very early 80s. My two fellas could go on so many adventures.
Tony what a sweet moment to watch . Hearing you talking about the interaction with your dad over the toy soldiers was really touching. I am a soldier myself + to see another collector of getting emotional over a toy. Passed down from father to his son. Was really touching during the holiday season + I just wanted to tell you my love you as desert rat ,it's a great figure. Take care and may God bless your family
Ahh Tony. You nearly blubbed there.....I'm afraid I actually DID blub mate. Thank you for sharing your amazing collection with folks like myself that have such wonderful memories, but not the funds to get all the stuff back that I had when life was simple and beautiful.👍
Great list. I also love my tan Action Force Vanguard. Almost all my action force are desert themed. And very cool Dalek. Your Desert Rat collection is growing.
Very nice acquisitions. I’d never heard of the Gabriel Mysterious Prospector. I have the ranger and Tonto and their horses, but had never seen or heard of this.
Hulk Rage Cage is a classic! Still have my Hulk. A local toy store here in Adelaide had it boxed in pretty nice condition. Still kicking myself I didn't grab it, ugh. Vintage Dalek is awesome...
That’s what’s fun about being collectors. We all have our own feels. We also have our own means and limits. It’s just about what you get fun out of. You have some almost blessed pick ups. Some I had as a kid, like the prospector. ❤
Nice collection.. it's funny because I just started going back & buying the old Star Wars vehicles not the OG vintage but the POTF (I like their deco better) and I saw that Ewok village on eBay for $170 & passed on it cause I thought it would take up too much space but like the ships I see now it's smaller than I remember.,.. crazy
Saying you only started out with Kenner supes and bats is like saying "I ONLY got two winning lotto tickets this week" i had the worlds finest as a kid and still miss them to this day.
Tony Love this Vintage toy pick ups of 2024. I really love the toy collection that you shared with us in this cool video. Have a great holidays and enjoy the new years. I cam't wait to see what kind video you have planned for 2025.🤩🤩🤩
Enhorabuena Tony, desde España te felicito. Me encantan tus vídeos por el amor y dedicación que sientes por esta pasión por los juguetes. Gran canal y seguro que mejor persona 😊
Although I collect non of the things you do, I love watching your vids, love your enthusiasm ❤ Also getting something so awesome from your dad would crack any man up❤ Keep collecting and I hope you find more great stuff next year, say hi to your dad from a fellow collector M
you need to come to sydney for collectorcon in Penrith, in late march. All the sellers will have reloaded and it’s the first event of the year. 300 tables! worth your time
I had an Incredible Hulk inflatable Punch Bag as a Toddler in 81/82 ish timeframe, has anyone else ever seen one? I was scared of it as a Kid, it was one of my earliest memories! It must have only been about 3ft high and it had a white background. PS I think I just found it, It was called the 'Incredible Hulk Bop Bag'! I've looked for it for ages and it just popped up on Google! 😂
I just gave some of my G1 transformers to my teenage daughters. They liked them. So now it's theirs. My father had a huge Simpsons collection. Bet my brother sold it...
You know what tony you keep your channel honest .dont get to wrapped in negativity crap.your videos always well put toghter.and time spent on them .they imformitve .i agree your no 1 chose as you cant beat that from your dad .and i know through your videos how much he means to you in your collecting look forward new room tour .as watched others so many times .lucky they not on vhs .take care have cracking new year col
Not sure happen toys when we no longer around .the only collection i have ever envied is you action man collection .and again warmtched thouse ones manytimes they were great times .
Great solid list! My dad built a large collection of western stage coaches and early automobiles out of matchsticks when I was born (74) They will be gifted to me someday.
SOOO much great vintage stuff here, Tony. That metal prototype Dessert Rat figure is gorgeous! The trophy miniature's set is a stunner, too!
Thanks for the kind words. I'm having a real blast bringing these vintage finds to life for everyone.
Don't blame you for getting emotional after getting that gift from your dad. I'd be in floods if my dad gave me something so special, like that.
Best toy on the list ALSO comes with the BEST STORY on the list!
‘They’ say, “toys are for kids” - but here’s a case of an adult father & son sharing creating a cherished memory that will last a lifetime.

Nice video Tony. I visited Lobos based on one of your recent posts and wasn’t disappointed. Your content is outstanding so keep it coming!
Damn it, Tony. You got me all emotional with your #1 pick. That's a beautiful story, and I'm happy for you. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family.

Can't believe I've only now found your channel! Better late than never! Great year end review and great collection! Long live vintage! ❤❤❤
Thank You for your 2024 videos. I collect Hausser Elastolin castles from Germany and was happy to get some rare ones this year
Great to see you getting into Super Powers, it's still one of the best superhero toy lines and it's always nice to see it getting another fan. Happy New Year.
Great story at the close. The Mysterious Prospector is great; seriously, what a well-designed piece of Americana.
I'm amazed how Tony was able to fit that Ewok village inside that case.

Thanks for sharing all the great pick ups Tony. Merry Christmas to you!!
I always look forward to your videos, and they never disappoint. Those shirts of your dad were awesome, as well as the playset he gave you!
Reminds us what it’s all about and gets to the heart of our hobbies. So many memories and emotions wrapped up in what we do. Great video.
A very nice list and different from what most toytube channels are doing (myself included). Also a nice review of the year for your channel.
'24 has been quite the year for your collection, Tony. Outstanding list and acquisitions.
Dang, that hulk box DOES look great!!
Great stuff. The Rorke's Drift set is amazing. Can't beat the story either. Happy New Year Tony!

Love the video Tony! Especially touched by your #1 pick for the year.
