Great video!
I continue to appreciate the love for the Buck Rogers TV show in particular. I really liked it as a kid as well (at least, season 1 anyway). I've always kind of felt like, among nerds/geeks, a love of Star Trek is almost always respected (if not always reciprocated). And if you express an affection for the original Battlestar Galactica, you might get some good-natured side-eye. But if you say you liked the Buck Rogers TV show, others look to see if there's any drool they need to wipe off your chin. So it remains my guilty pleasant memory that I more-or-less keep to myself. (The exception being the always well-received praise for Wilma Deering's body suit.) -
Just watched the video.
Great vacation. Like the Big Jim command center you got. Im a Big Jim collector also. You made me realise that Ottawa could be a nice hunting ground for myself also since only 1 1/2 hr away from me. Might have to to plan a small Safari trip myself... lol
Great video as always. Really enjoying your work on youtube. So much I didnt know on stuff.
Keep up the great work.Comment

Great video as always! That's the kind of relaxing vacation I love. We've only done one true dedicated vacation just to hit antique malls out of state, but we had a great time. We need to do it more.
Cindy had the Barbie version of that same Big Jim playset you picked up. She eventually sold it just because she didn't have room to display it, but it was a fun set.Comment

Dang I would have picked that Henshin Cyborg guy up for sure!

Nice finds! The sculpts on those Mattel Clash of the Titans figures are really good for the time.You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...Comment

Very nice video. Those Tomy Light Cycles are pure magic.
You are transparent; I see many things... I see plans within plans.Comment
