1
00:00:09,900 --> 00:00:11,940
What? What are you doing? Playing with
the chains.

2
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:13,160
It's not a toy.

3
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:14,280
Yeah, it is.

4
00:00:14,860 --> 00:00:18,660
This is an open Lego set. It's the
second edition, the Death Star.

5
00:00:18,940 --> 00:00:20,580
Corey, I'm not your father.

6
00:00:21,860 --> 00:00:25,160
Something about these pizza -eating life
-like turtles.

7
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:28,220
I could do this all day.

8
00:00:29,340 --> 00:00:31,060
You're tearing up my heart with these.

9
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:35,580
Yeah, we were really young. And that's
Chris with his pineapple hair, I like to

10
00:00:35,580 --> 00:00:38,320
call it. And Justin at his ramen noodle
head.

11
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:40,920
I'm just like mega impressed with this
thing.

12
00:00:41,740 --> 00:00:46,340
I think this was your first action
figure. Man, I don't even have one.

13
00:00:46,340 --> 00:00:48,800
I buy this, you still won't because I'm
putting it in my collection.

14
00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:50,040
Oh, Joe.

15
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:54,120
How

16
00:00:54,120 --> 00:01:02,320
can

17
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:03,320
I help you?

18
00:01:03,370 --> 00:01:08,330
I have five NSYNC dolls and a signed
picture by the entire band.

19
00:01:10,750 --> 00:01:14,290
We have Joey Fatone, Lance Bass,

20
00:01:15,110 --> 00:01:20,790
J .C., Chris Kirkpatrick, and Justin
Timberlake. All the ladies want them and

21
00:01:20,790 --> 00:01:21,870
all the guys want to be them.

22
00:01:22,130 --> 00:01:23,130
One of my favorites.

23
00:01:23,310 --> 00:01:24,930
You're tearing up my heart with these.

24
00:01:26,810 --> 00:01:28,570
This is definitely cool.

25
00:01:29,050 --> 00:01:30,790
NSYNC, I think they started around 1995.

26
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,360
And they actually started overseas in
Germany and Europe first.

27
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,880
About 96 is when they came over to
America, released their first album.

28
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,880
And it was a landmark album. I mean,
from that point on, they did

29
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,620
with tons and tons of well -known
musicians.

30
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:51,880
Stevie Wonder, Elton John, Aerosmith. I
mean, they had two platinum records, two

31
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,700
diamond records, three gold singles.

32
00:01:54,220 --> 00:01:58,040
And Sync is one of the most popular,
most successful boy bands ever.

33
00:02:00,010 --> 00:02:04,730
So I do have one doll that was signed
twice by Joey Fatone.

34
00:02:05,270 --> 00:02:06,350
So that's pretty cool.

35
00:02:07,010 --> 00:02:11,850
I think Joey and Justin are probably the
most popular of the group. They went on

36
00:02:11,850 --> 00:02:15,490
to have the most successful careers
after. So it looks like they made these

37
00:02:15,490 --> 00:02:17,170
dolls to be collected.

38
00:02:17,390 --> 00:02:20,890
So these weren't the kind of dolls you
would play with. If they were out of the

39
00:02:20,890 --> 00:02:22,590
packaging, they would be less desirable.

40
00:02:23,010 --> 00:02:24,050
Let me see the picture.

41
00:02:24,950 --> 00:02:26,450
Oh, this is really cool.

42
00:02:26,730 --> 00:02:28,510
You got everyone's signature on there?

43
00:02:28,810 --> 00:02:32,460
Yes. I mean, you can definitely see the
90s just pouring out of the picture

44
00:02:32,460 --> 00:02:36,800
right here. Just the clothes, this looks
like late 90s, early 2000s right here

45
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:37,800
in this picture.

46
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:43,060
I don't know how collectible NSYNC is,
but I imagine that there's a good market

47
00:02:43,060 --> 00:02:47,840
for this stuff right now because they're
from the late 90s, early 2000s, and the

48
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,060
kids growing up at the time period to
listen to that music are starting to get

49
00:02:51,060 --> 00:02:54,400
old enough to where they have the money
to collect stuff like this. It's really

50
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:55,900
cool you have the whole set right here.

51
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:57,600
How much are you looking for these?

52
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,180
I'm looking for $500.

53
00:03:01,700 --> 00:03:08,700
Okay. I don't know the value of these,
honestly, so it might not be out

54
00:03:08,700 --> 00:03:10,160
of the realm of possibility.

55
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,780
I'd like to have someone come down, take
a look at these, and put a value on

56
00:03:14,780 --> 00:03:16,480
them before I make you an offer.

57
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,260
Okay. All right? Give me a few minutes.
I'm going to call my guy down here, and

58
00:03:20,260 --> 00:03:21,540
hopefully you can get here quick.

59
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:22,800
Okay. Thank you.

60
00:03:33,610 --> 00:03:36,550
So what do we have here, and how in the
hell did you get this through my door?

61
00:03:36,770 --> 00:03:41,250
Very carefully. No, seriously, one of
your guys gave me a hand with this.

62
00:03:41,350 --> 00:03:44,950
so they decided to help you through the
door with it, but not help you sell it,

63
00:03:44,970 --> 00:03:45,970
okay.

64
00:03:46,290 --> 00:03:47,510
I'm on my own there, I guess.

65
00:03:49,590 --> 00:03:50,950
All right, so tell me about it.

66
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:56,000
Well, this was popular in the 60s and
70s. Williams made several versions of

67
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:56,859
this kind of game.

68
00:03:56,860 --> 00:03:59,360
Okay, this is almost the end of this
era, too.

69
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,060
Oh, it is. After this is when it got
really, really electronic and video

70
00:04:03,060 --> 00:04:06,240
just kind of took over. Right, and the
new pinballs became more like video

71
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,640
games, too. In fact, they quit the
pinball business in the 90s.

72
00:04:09,940 --> 00:04:12,160
I think their main thing is the slot
machine.

73
00:04:12,380 --> 00:04:13,380
A lot more money in that.

74
00:04:13,940 --> 00:04:14,940
Absolutely.

75
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:16,320
This is a rare find.

76
00:04:17,019 --> 00:04:20,040
I got it from this collector down in
Austin, Texas.

77
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:22,640
He's redone all the cabinet.

78
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:27,460
He found new control panels, things that
were not available any longer.

79
00:04:27,820 --> 00:04:31,900
And the big feature on it is it's got
this animated back glass where the

80
00:04:31,900 --> 00:04:36,540
players, as you score runs, they will
actually physically get up and run

81
00:04:36,540 --> 00:04:37,540
the bases. Okay.

82
00:04:38,220 --> 00:04:42,720
What makes you want to sell it? Well,
I've had my day with this one, so time

83
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,260
find a new home for it. So does it work?

84
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:45,560
Works 100%.

85
00:04:45,900 --> 00:04:48,180
Well, I'll tell you what, set it up to
where I can play it real quick.

86
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,940
After I play it, if I decide I like it,
we'll talk some money. All right.

87
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:53,760
Well, we press a button.

88
00:04:54,380 --> 00:04:55,840
All right, that's the sound you want to
hear.

89
00:04:56,500 --> 00:04:57,419
All right.

90
00:04:57,420 --> 00:04:58,199
All right.

91
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,560
The secret is pitch first and then swing
late.

92
00:05:00,860 --> 00:05:01,880
Okay. All right.

93
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:03,480
There you go.

94
00:05:04,060 --> 00:05:05,260
There, that was your first score.

95
00:05:05,980 --> 00:05:07,620
I could do this all day. That's great.

96
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,500
These old pinball machines are really
cool, and the market's pretty good for

97
00:05:11,500 --> 00:05:14,380
them. If I can get this for the right
price, I should have no problem selling

98
00:05:14,380 --> 00:05:15,380
it.

99
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:17,680
And that was it. That was your out.

100
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,840
All right, so what are you looking to
get out of this?

101
00:05:22,020 --> 00:05:23,020
$5 ,500.

102
00:05:23,140 --> 00:05:24,140
$5 ,500.

103
00:05:24,380 --> 00:05:25,820
That's a good deal based on the
condition.

104
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:32,400
The condition looks great, man. I just
kind of feel like that's probably what

105
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:33,259
I'll get out of it.

106
00:05:33,260 --> 00:05:35,500
Well, I think you can get more if you
get the right collector.

107
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,360
Yeah, if I've got to find the right guy.

108
00:05:38,140 --> 00:05:39,160
It may take some time.

109
00:05:39,540 --> 00:05:43,080
I'm going to have to resell it. I've got
to make money. I'll do $3 ,500.

110
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,260
I'm thinking $3 ,500 is a pretty fair
offer on it.

111
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:49,540
You don't find him in this condition,
though.

112
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,080
What would you sit at $4 ,000?

113
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:56,600
I'd take four grand cash for it.

114
00:05:58,280 --> 00:05:59,280
$3 ,750.

115
00:06:01,220 --> 00:06:03,020
You got a deal. Thank you, sir.

116
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:04,480
Let's go do some paperwork.

117
00:06:04,620 --> 00:06:05,039
All right.

118
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:06,040
Thank you, sir.

119
00:06:06,860 --> 00:06:07,860
I hit a home run.

120
00:06:08,340 --> 00:06:10,060
I paid $800 for it.

121
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:12,080
I'm thrilled at $3 ,750.

122
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:22,080
I have a customer in the shop looking to
sell her five Instinct figurines and a

123
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,280
picture that she says is signed by the
entire group.

124
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,460
Instinct is one of the biggest boy bands
in the world, so I'm sure there's some

125
00:06:28,460 --> 00:06:29,219
value here.

126
00:06:29,220 --> 00:06:32,740
But I need a little bit more
information, so I'm calling up my good

127
00:06:32,740 --> 00:06:34,340
Johnston to learn a little more.

128
00:06:35,340 --> 00:06:37,500
I got quite the collection for you to
look at today.

129
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:38,699
These are cool.

130
00:06:38,700 --> 00:06:42,560
The Instinct toys were, for the time
period and the culture, like really,

131
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:46,640
big. And the reason they were so big is
this band, obviously, when they blew up,

132
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,920
they... took off like wildfire.

133
00:06:49,540 --> 00:06:52,940
You want to talk about a great marketing
campaign with the song It's Gonna Be

134
00:06:52,940 --> 00:06:58,820
Me? They filmed that song as the
marionette, so they were dressed in the

135
00:06:58,820 --> 00:06:59,920
to look like the dolls.

136
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:04,300
You saw them come to life on your
screen, and then you turn around, you go

137
00:07:04,300 --> 00:07:07,180
the toy store, and there's the
marionettes available for you to

138
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:12,440
And immediately you saw this toy line,
when it hit the shelf, disappear.

139
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:18,400
So the boxes look like they're a little
rough. It's pretty common for these

140
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,460
boxes to be in this type of condition.

141
00:07:20,820 --> 00:07:24,900
I also noticed that this one looks like
it's got some writing on it. That could

142
00:07:24,900 --> 00:07:27,860
be an autograph. I don't authenticate
autographs for you, so that's not

143
00:07:27,860 --> 00:07:32,320
something that I can tell you that is
for a fact, you know, Joey's autograph

144
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:33,279
not.

145
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:34,720
So what do you think everything's worth?

146
00:07:35,820 --> 00:07:40,000
So I've seen the Justin go, you know,
$35 to $40 by itself.

147
00:07:40,539 --> 00:07:44,720
The other figures go anywhere from, you
know, $10 to $15 each.

148
00:07:45,900 --> 00:07:47,660
That's what we paid for them originally.

149
00:07:48,180 --> 00:07:52,500
Yeah. In some cases with some of these
toys, when they're mass produced, they

150
00:07:52,500 --> 00:07:57,100
don't necessarily gain or sometimes lose
value. And we see this trend,

151
00:07:57,140 --> 00:08:03,160
especially in the 90s and early 2000s
toys. So as a set, I would expect you'd

152
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:04,440
able to get $90 for them.

153
00:08:05,610 --> 00:08:08,190
However, you have a picture down here,
and it looks like it's signed by the

154
00:08:08,190 --> 00:08:10,650
entire band. I think you should get the
autographs authenticated.

155
00:08:11,010 --> 00:08:14,570
Because if you do that, that could
really be your value here, the fact that

156
00:08:14,570 --> 00:08:17,430
have all the autographs with it. You
know, I've seen Justin's autograph go as

157
00:08:17,430 --> 00:08:19,810
high as $200 because of how desirable
his is.

158
00:08:20,070 --> 00:08:25,110
Okay. But as far as the toys are
concerned, as they sit, I would expect

159
00:08:25,110 --> 00:08:26,870
you'd be able to get $90 for the dolls
themselves.

160
00:08:27,850 --> 00:08:28,850
Okay.

161
00:08:29,190 --> 00:08:30,690
Thanks for coming out. No problem.
Thanks.

162
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,960
You know what? I actually know someone
that can authenticate these signatures.

163
00:08:35,179 --> 00:08:36,880
Do you mind if I make one more call?

164
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:38,600
Okay. I'll be right back.

165
00:08:45,020 --> 00:08:49,520
Earlier today, a customer came into the
shop to sell her NSYNC figurines. The

166
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:53,220
dolls are in great condition, and
although Steve Johnson valued the dolls

167
00:08:53,220 --> 00:08:57,240
$90, he says that having the signatures
authenticated could increase the value.

168
00:08:57,630 --> 00:09:00,950
And it just so happens I know the
perfect person for the job.

169
00:09:01,330 --> 00:09:02,450
Hey. Hey, how you doing?

170
00:09:02,710 --> 00:09:03,970
What's going on, brother? Thanks for
coming out.

171
00:09:05,670 --> 00:09:06,449
How's it going?

172
00:09:06,450 --> 00:09:07,550
Hi. Doing all right?

173
00:09:07,810 --> 00:09:08,850
Very nice to meet you.

174
00:09:09,390 --> 00:09:12,130
Chum called me up, wanted to see if I
could verify some signatures.

175
00:09:12,410 --> 00:09:16,790
Of course, being with NSYNC as a group
for well over 10 years, in a sense, you

176
00:09:16,790 --> 00:09:19,110
know, you tend to know each other's
signatures and seeing them because we're

177
00:09:19,110 --> 00:09:22,170
signing thousands of them. Like, you
know, meet and greets will come up. We

178
00:09:22,170 --> 00:09:24,310
won't sign a bunch of pictures. So, of
course, you get to know all the

179
00:09:24,310 --> 00:09:26,620
signatures. You can't get away from my
chicken scratch.

180
00:09:26,860 --> 00:09:27,860
And all the other guys, too.

181
00:09:28,100 --> 00:09:30,540
It's like staring in a mirror. Oh, yeah.
Yeah, exactly.

182
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:32,120
Anatomically correct, too, by the way.

183
00:09:32,620 --> 00:09:34,800
Wow, this is pretty crazy. And you got
all of them.

184
00:09:35,060 --> 00:09:36,060
Here's the whole set.

185
00:09:37,060 --> 00:09:39,920
Bringing back some old memories here.
Yeah, you know, it's amazing.

186
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,920
You know, with the No Strings Attacked
album, we broke records. We sold 1 .2

187
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,320
million albums in the first day.

188
00:09:45,540 --> 00:09:47,860
And we sold 2 .4 million albums.

189
00:09:48,190 --> 00:09:51,310
in the first week, which was never done
before, and they were tangible albums.

190
00:09:51,450 --> 00:09:53,310
Yeah, it's a lot different now with
digital streams.

191
00:09:53,590 --> 00:09:54,590
Yeah, exactly.

192
00:09:55,330 --> 00:09:57,130
So take a look at these and tell me what
you think.

193
00:09:57,990 --> 00:10:00,470
Pretty cool. But, yeah, no, that's
definitely my signature. Usually I would

194
00:10:00,470 --> 00:10:03,030
write, like, sometimes, like, stay sweet
or peace and love and stuff like that,

195
00:10:03,090 --> 00:10:06,450
which obviously there it is. I wrote
peace and love on the back of it. So,

196
00:10:06,570 --> 00:10:08,450
that's definitely my signature on there.

197
00:10:08,670 --> 00:10:09,670
Cool.

198
00:10:09,790 --> 00:10:11,410
And then this picture. Wow. Holy cow.

199
00:10:12,010 --> 00:10:15,210
Yeah, we were really young. And that's
Chris with his pineapple hair, I like to

200
00:10:15,210 --> 00:10:17,950
call it. And Justin at his ramen noodle
head.

201
00:10:18,470 --> 00:10:22,790
The signatures, yeah, I mean, they look,
they are pretty legit. JC usually,

202
00:10:22,850 --> 00:10:24,570
he'll write his name and he'll put the
JC on there.

203
00:10:24,870 --> 00:10:28,450
Lance usually has two double squiggly
lines, which is right around there when

204
00:10:28,450 --> 00:10:31,910
writes Lance. That is definitely my
sloppy signature right there. Chris has

205
00:10:31,910 --> 00:10:35,310
always had the signature where it was
like a CH and an I always. You never saw

206
00:10:35,310 --> 00:10:38,890
the rest of it. And of course,
Kirkpatrick looked all crappy, but

207
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,660
Obviously, he always had the J, and he
always crossed the T with his actual

208
00:10:42,660 --> 00:10:43,920
letter and his name, which was pretty
cool.

209
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:48,120
So you can verify your signatures for
sure? Yeah, it's definitely real. So

210
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:49,920
job. Brings back a lot of memories.
Crazy.

211
00:10:50,180 --> 00:10:52,880
Well, I appreciate you coming by. No
problem. Thank you so much. Very nice to

212
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:54,760
meet you. Thank you. So nice meeting
you. My pleasure. Nice meeting you guys.

213
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:55,800
Have a good one.

214
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,900
All right. So there you go. Straight
from Joey himself.

215
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:00,240
The autographs are real.

216
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,960
My toy guy says the toys are nice. Go
for about $90.

217
00:11:05,660 --> 00:11:08,300
As a group, I could give you $150.

218
00:11:09,590 --> 00:11:16,470
$150? Oh, but Justin's signature alone
is worth $200. I mean, I

219
00:11:16,470 --> 00:11:17,710
need to make a little bit of profit.

220
00:11:18,510 --> 00:11:20,950
Could you do $175?

221
00:11:22,670 --> 00:11:24,690
Man, would you consider $200?

222
00:11:27,270 --> 00:11:28,270
Yeah,

223
00:11:30,090 --> 00:11:31,310
I think I could do $200 on them.

224
00:11:31,750 --> 00:11:33,930
Okay. All right, let's go write it up.

225
00:11:34,650 --> 00:11:38,970
I ended up selling my collection for
$200, but...

226
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:43,740
I got to meet Joey Fatone and discuss
the signatures of the band.

227
00:11:44,060 --> 00:11:45,400
So it was well worth it.

228
00:11:51,700 --> 00:11:53,340
Hey, Rick, you got to come check this
out.

229
00:11:53,900 --> 00:11:55,960
Damn. Oh, that's badass, dude.

230
00:11:56,180 --> 00:11:57,620
Where in the hell did you get this?

231
00:11:57,860 --> 00:12:01,020
My roommate owed me some money and gave
this to me as collateral.

232
00:12:01,260 --> 00:12:02,900
I have not heard from him since.

233
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:07,420
Okay. Everything in here is practically
identical to a...

234
00:12:07,710 --> 00:12:11,770
Full rail car. This is the coolest
little model train I've ever seen in my

235
00:12:11,850 --> 00:12:13,630
This is like nerd heaven right here.

236
00:12:14,990 --> 00:12:18,210
This was the Great Western Railroad. It
was in England.

237
00:12:18,590 --> 00:12:21,890
This was the first train to go over 100
miles an hour, right? That's exactly

238
00:12:21,890 --> 00:12:22,709
right. Okay.

239
00:12:22,710 --> 00:12:25,690
Well, it's a model of the train that
went over 100 miles an hour. That's

240
00:12:26,290 --> 00:12:31,630
And this was basically, you know, we're
reaching the pinnacle of steam

241
00:12:31,630 --> 00:12:35,220
railroads. This train right here had a
superheated boiler. I mean, you get the

242
00:12:35,220 --> 00:12:38,520
boiler extra, extra hot. Does it work on
coal? Yes, yes.

243
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,740
Shovel coal in there, and then you can
get it started with a little catalyst.

244
00:12:42,140 --> 00:12:45,620
Use paraffin. Once you get it hot
enough, it'll stay running.

245
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,100
I'm just, like, mega impressed with this
thing.

246
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:52,160
It's really not a toy. It's a super high
-tech toy. It's a super nerdy high

247
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:52,919
-tech toy.

248
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:57,060
England was an industrial powerhouse.
They pioneered and refined the steam

249
00:12:57,060 --> 00:13:00,980
engine. This exact replica gives an idea
of just how incredible they were.

250
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,180
To find a working model with this much
detail is pretty rare.

251
00:13:04,380 --> 00:13:07,540
I am sure train collectors are going to
be all over this.

252
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:09,940
All right, big question. What do you
want for it?

253
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:11,480
50 bucks sold.

254
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:18,120
Well, the number on the engine is 3440.
How about 3440?

255
00:13:19,740 --> 00:13:21,340
And when was the last time you fired it
up?

256
00:13:23,810 --> 00:13:24,810
92?

257
00:13:25,470 --> 00:13:27,290
Can you be like $1 ,700 for it?

258
00:13:27,930 --> 00:13:32,330
You know, I got to have a little more
out of it. I mean, yourself, it's just

259
00:13:32,330 --> 00:13:33,490
cool. How about $25?

260
00:13:34,970 --> 00:13:39,410
I'll give you $2 ,000. $2 ,000 cash, I
think it's fair, because I have no idea

261
00:13:39,410 --> 00:13:40,410
what they're going to go for.

262
00:13:42,730 --> 00:13:43,730
I'll tell you what.

263
00:13:45,910 --> 00:13:50,430
$2 ,000 is a lot better than $500 of
somebody I owe a new one, so...

264
00:13:51,130 --> 00:13:53,210
Let's do it. Okay. All right. $2 ,000,
man.

265
00:13:53,570 --> 00:13:54,570
Let's do it. Okay.

266
00:13:54,970 --> 00:13:56,450
Meet you right up front. All right.

267
00:13:57,390 --> 00:14:01,350
Overall, you know, $500 back in 91, $2
,000 today.

268
00:14:02,190 --> 00:14:05,070
I'm looking to go loan some more money
to some of my deadbeat friends.

269
00:14:13,910 --> 00:14:14,910
How you doing?

270
00:14:15,110 --> 00:14:17,810
Good. How are you? Pretty good. What do
you have here?

271
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:23,520
I have a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle
prototype from 1991 along with the

272
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:27,020
product. They're actually re -releasing
a lot of these, too, because they are

273
00:14:27,020 --> 00:14:31,240
popular amongst this generation, too.
Yeah, I think the turtles will always

274
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:35,960
a special place, right? Something about
these pizza -eating, life -like turtles

275
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,720
that just captured the pop culture of
America.

276
00:14:42,300 --> 00:14:43,300
That's pretty cool.

277
00:14:43,580 --> 00:14:46,800
This looks like it's from the Mutant
Military set.

278
00:14:47,260 --> 00:14:50,580
each turtle would have represented a
different branch of the military. That's

279
00:14:50,580 --> 00:14:55,660
right. In 1991, Playmate was doing some
really cool stuff with the line Teenage

280
00:14:55,660 --> 00:14:59,040
Mutant Ninja Turtles. It was a
relatively new comic, and I think their

281
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,120
television series came out in, like, 87.

282
00:15:01,820 --> 00:15:05,960
So they released their first set of toys
in 88, and they did really well. And

283
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,960
then in 91, Playmate started to do all
kinds of cool stuff with the turtles,

284
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:11,560
the toys would just fly off the shelf.

285
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:15,060
So tell me a little bit about what you
know about it.

286
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:19,900
So these characters were made as hard
resin prototypes, like the one you have

287
00:15:19,900 --> 00:15:22,140
front of you. Do you mind if I handle
the prototype?

288
00:15:22,460 --> 00:15:23,460
Absolutely.

289
00:15:23,740 --> 00:15:27,100
It's pretty cool, though. I'm just kind
of comparing it to the final product

290
00:15:27,100 --> 00:15:31,920
there, and it looks pretty much
identical, right? But I'm interested,

291
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:32,920
you find the prototype?

292
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:39,040
So I have a friend who is very close to
the person who actually made the

293
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:40,140
prototypes for Playmate.

294
00:15:40,380 --> 00:15:44,100
It is pretty cool, actually. Were you
the one who had this graded? I did.

295
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:48,500
It has some minor whitening around the
edges, but overall, it's a beautiful

296
00:15:48,500 --> 00:15:52,820
piece, and it doesn't seem to have any
fading going on on the actual card

297
00:15:52,820 --> 00:15:53,820
itself.

298
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:55,400
Do you have a price in mind?

299
00:15:55,660 --> 00:15:57,960
I was looking to get $3 ,500 for it.
Okay.

300
00:15:58,740 --> 00:16:02,680
It's not so hard for me to value the
graded one because, you know, there's a

301
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:06,940
record of stuff like this selling in
different grades, so it's pretty easy.

302
00:16:06,940 --> 00:16:11,760
as far as the prototype goes, those
don't trade publicly as much as the

303
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:12,679
release stuff.

304
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:17,360
So I'd like to have someone come down
and take a look at it and kind of give

305
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:19,700
their idea on what they think it would
sell for in today's market.

306
00:16:19,940 --> 00:16:23,660
Sure. All right. Give me a few minutes.
I'll have my guy come down here, and

307
00:16:23,660 --> 00:16:26,020
we'll talk about what he thinks. Great.
Thank you.

308
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:35,280
Hello.

309
00:16:35,900 --> 00:16:36,900
How's it going?

310
00:16:37,540 --> 00:16:38,800
Got some sweet for you, man.

311
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,800
Okay. This is my 1 ,000%.

312
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:43,139
Bare brick.

313
00:16:43,140 --> 00:16:45,400
It's by COZ. What do you mean 1 ,000 %?

314
00:16:45,700 --> 00:16:49,380
That's just the size. So this is the
largest version he has. They have 100%,

315
00:16:49,380 --> 00:16:53,300
400%, and this is 1 ,000%. So it's not
small, medium, large.

316
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:55,120
Yeah, we're going by percentage.

317
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:56,400
All right.

318
00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,760
It's interesting, but who's the artist?

319
00:17:00,420 --> 00:17:05,540
COZ. He's a famous artist out of
Brooklyn, and this is the dissected

320
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:07,920
Okay.

321
00:17:08,420 --> 00:17:09,660
It's beautiful.

322
00:17:11,919 --> 00:17:16,000
They go for a lot. He has a lot of
pieces. Of course, he has like... Whoa.

323
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:16,799
bear brick?

324
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:17,799
Are you selling this?

325
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:19,240
I am. Do you know what this is, Rick?

326
00:17:20,319 --> 00:17:22,900
Um, it's a bear thing.

327
00:17:23,339 --> 00:17:25,920
Kaz. So how do you know about this?

328
00:17:26,180 --> 00:17:27,940
He's one of the biggest artists, Rick.
You got to understand.

329
00:17:28,339 --> 00:17:31,380
MTV had him redo their Moon Man for
their MTV award.

330
00:17:31,700 --> 00:17:35,220
Jordan has done collaborations. They
made Jordan's shoes with this guy.

331
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,720
He's had some stuff even sell for $14
million.

332
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:39,840
You know?

333
00:17:39,870 --> 00:17:44,890
He started working on painting
backgrounds for 101 Dalmatians, Doug,

334
00:17:44,890 --> 00:17:45,809
animated series.

335
00:17:45,810 --> 00:17:48,110
And then at night, he would go out and
do graffiti.

336
00:17:48,350 --> 00:17:52,290
And that's how he got famous. Kaz's
signature trademark is putting X's on

337
00:17:52,290 --> 00:17:53,870
eyes and X's on the hands.

338
00:17:54,490 --> 00:17:57,490
This is actually one of the most sought
-after ones. It's really hard to get.

339
00:17:57,570 --> 00:18:01,210
This is called the Companion. And the
Companion is modeled after Mickey Mouse.

340
00:18:01,430 --> 00:18:04,450
Is that the box for it right there or
whatever? Yeah. Oh, you got the box for

341
00:18:04,450 --> 00:18:06,550
it, too? Yeah, original box with it as
well.

342
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:08,000
I guess you would say.

343
00:18:08,140 --> 00:18:09,400
So what's this thing worth?

344
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,760
I mean, brand new in the box, in the
plastic.

345
00:18:16,120 --> 00:18:20,440
People ask about $12 ,000 for it, $13
,000, and they do sell for that.

346
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:25,840
But open like this, already out of the
box, other than these few little scuffs,

347
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:29,380
I mean, the condition looks pretty good,
and I think all this stuff could be

348
00:18:29,380 --> 00:18:32,500
wiped off with a towel. Without trying,
you could get $5 ,000 for it.

349
00:18:33,590 --> 00:18:36,710
These things are only going up in value.
You need to get it, all right?

350
00:18:37,010 --> 00:18:38,010
Okay.

351
00:18:38,590 --> 00:18:39,549
All right.

352
00:18:39,550 --> 00:18:43,150
I don't know what's crazier, that it's
worth that kind of money or Chum knew

353
00:18:43,150 --> 00:18:44,950
that much about it. I heard that, Rick.

354
00:18:47,830 --> 00:18:51,910
So, what's your best price for it?

355
00:18:52,370 --> 00:18:53,370
How about $10 ,000?

356
00:18:54,390 --> 00:18:55,870
No, because I can't sell it for that
much.

357
00:18:56,150 --> 00:18:57,150
I'll give you $4 ,000.

358
00:18:57,630 --> 00:18:59,250
No, I can't go that low.

359
00:18:59,650 --> 00:19:00,650
$6 ,000?

360
00:19:02,180 --> 00:19:04,200
I'll tell you what. I'll do $4 ,500. I'm
not going to do any more.

361
00:19:04,900 --> 00:19:05,739
$5 ,000?

362
00:19:05,740 --> 00:19:06,740
I'll go $4 ,500.

363
00:19:08,860 --> 00:19:10,060
Rick, $5 ,000 is still.

364
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:11,840
You're basically robbing them.

365
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:13,040
You work for me, right?

366
00:19:14,780 --> 00:19:16,220
I've seen you do the customer, right?

367
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:21,060
All right. I might be crazy, but I'll do
the $5 ,000. Sweet. Okay, sweet.

368
00:19:21,860 --> 00:19:25,260
I'll meet you right up front. We'll do
some paperwork, and I'll get you paid.

369
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:26,900
Don't worry, Rick. I'll put this away.

370
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:29,980
Be careful with it. Don't screw it up.

371
00:19:30,660 --> 00:19:31,820
You better be right on this, though.

372
00:19:41,220 --> 00:19:42,220
Hey, how are you doing?

373
00:19:42,420 --> 00:19:43,359
I'm good.

374
00:19:43,360 --> 00:19:46,000
I mean, it's pretty self -explanatory,
but what do you got here?

375
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,900
So this is an unopened Lego set. It's
the second edition, the Death Star.

376
00:19:50,120 --> 00:19:53,420
All right, definitely pretty cool. You
don't really look like a Lego person.

377
00:19:53,740 --> 00:19:58,260
I am a bit of a Star Wars nerd, but this
is just overwhelming. 4 ,000 pieces, I

378
00:19:58,260 --> 00:19:59,260
can't fit.

379
00:19:59,370 --> 00:20:03,050
My nephew stayed at my house for about a
month when he was a kid, and I learned

380
00:20:03,050 --> 00:20:05,350
about LEGO. Yeah, you're probably still
stepping on them.

381
00:20:06,690 --> 00:20:11,290
This is actually really cool. So LEGO
started in the 30s. They came right off

382
00:20:11,290 --> 00:20:13,710
the heels of the erector set craze that
was going on.

383
00:20:14,110 --> 00:20:16,970
1949 is when they started making the
little bricks out of plastic.

384
00:20:17,690 --> 00:20:18,850
77 came along.

385
00:20:19,050 --> 00:20:23,510
Star Wars came out. This would be the
second set. It came out in 2016, and

386
00:20:23,510 --> 00:20:26,090
is the new and improved, better version
of it.

387
00:20:27,690 --> 00:20:32,330
I think this one had something like 200
or 400 extra bricks in it. Definitely

388
00:20:32,330 --> 00:20:35,970
one of the most popular things Lego has
done in probably the past 30 years.

389
00:20:36,250 --> 00:20:39,970
Very true. Just really, really more
refined. I think it had a bunch of the

390
00:20:39,970 --> 00:20:42,850
hip Lego people call them mini -figs.

391
00:20:43,050 --> 00:20:45,630
Mini -figs. I just call them little Lego
character guys.

392
00:20:46,710 --> 00:20:50,770
Let's see, here are all the mini -figs.
You have two Stormtroopers, two Death

393
00:20:50,770 --> 00:20:53,450
Star Gunners, Grand Moff Tarkin.

394
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:58,360
He was the guy that's above Darth Vader.
Everybody has a boss, right? Even in

395
00:20:58,360 --> 00:20:59,360
different galaxies.

396
00:20:59,620 --> 00:21:01,900
Yeah, everyone does. So apparently Darth
Vader did too.

397
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:06,280
But I'm pretty sure one of the things
that makes this set really special is

398
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:07,640
is the only set where he's in.

399
00:21:08,360 --> 00:21:10,600
Definitely pretty cool. I know that's
one of the things that makes it more

400
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:14,200
valuable than others. I mean, the box is
a little worse for wear. It's slightly

401
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:15,200
open over here.

402
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,360
I mean, the only thing cool about the
box is that you still have some kind of

403
00:21:18,360 --> 00:21:21,360
original box. I mean, you have the tape
here, all that, but it's not going to

404
00:21:21,360 --> 00:21:22,420
bring anything extra for it.

405
00:21:22,780 --> 00:21:24,700
I'm assuming you brought it here to sell
it, right? Yeah.

406
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:26,680
So how much are you looking to get for
it?

407
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:28,340
I'm hoping to get $1 ,100 for it.

408
00:21:28,580 --> 00:21:31,920
I mean, if the box is in absolute
perfect condition and this thing came

409
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:35,400
off the shelf, I'm sure it could go for
$2 ,500, maybe even up to $3 ,000.

410
00:21:35,660 --> 00:21:37,400
It's all in the packaging.

411
00:21:37,620 --> 00:21:38,620
Would you do $5 ,000?

412
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:40,520
I'll do $900.

413
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:42,760
I can do $7 ,000.

414
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:45,320
$850.

415
00:21:45,780 --> 00:21:46,780
I just can't do it.

416
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:48,000
$750?

417
00:21:49,890 --> 00:21:51,330
I can do seven switch. You've got to do
it.

418
00:21:51,650 --> 00:21:53,990
I'm going to be right over there. Leave
this here. We've got to do some

419
00:21:53,990 --> 00:21:54,990
paperwork. Thank you.

420
00:22:04,350 --> 00:22:05,350
What do you think, Corey?

421
00:22:05,470 --> 00:22:07,150
Do you think your dad designed this
bobble himself?

422
00:22:07,390 --> 00:22:08,390
It doesn't really look like him.

423
00:22:08,570 --> 00:22:12,350
No, not really, but I think they just
used, like, a stock head on it and just

424
00:22:12,350 --> 00:22:13,350
made it bold.

425
00:22:14,070 --> 00:22:15,390
You guys look like you're working hard.

426
00:22:15,830 --> 00:22:18,030
What's up with this bobble head? It
doesn't even look like you.

427
00:22:18,230 --> 00:22:19,039
Yeah, it does.

428
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,360
You know I love you, but it's a little
attractive to be you.

429
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:22,900
First off, he's slender.

430
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:24,400
And?

431
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:27,560
Okay, now I see it.

432
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,380
I think we'll sell him. I mean, everyone
wants a bobblehead of me, right?

433
00:22:32,020 --> 00:22:34,680
All right, well, I'm going to try to get
him to redo you.

434
00:22:34,940 --> 00:22:36,300
I think my bobblehead looks good, dude.

435
00:22:38,420 --> 00:22:40,620
Yeah, we really got to do something
about this bobblehead.

436
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:43,380
Corey, I'm not your father.

437
00:22:48,409 --> 00:22:51,730
There's a guy in the shop right now with
a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action

438
00:22:51,730 --> 00:22:56,070
figure prototype and a sealed version
graded of the same toy.

439
00:22:56,330 --> 00:22:59,910
I'm asking Steve Johnson to come take a
look and let me know if I should make an

440
00:22:59,910 --> 00:23:01,950
offer or put this deal in the shredder.

441
00:23:02,790 --> 00:23:03,709
Hey, Steve.

442
00:23:03,710 --> 00:23:05,650
Hey, Chum. How's it going? Pretty good.
How you doing?

443
00:23:05,890 --> 00:23:06,890
How you doing? Hey.

444
00:23:07,050 --> 00:23:11,130
So this gentleman has this cool
collection of Ninja Turtle stuff here,

445
00:23:11,130 --> 00:23:15,170
of them's a prototype, and he has the
matching general release version graded.

446
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,260
Yeah, so it's funny that Teenage Mutant
Ninja Turtles is one of the most

447
00:23:18,260 --> 00:23:22,260
collectible toy lines out there. The
reason for it, it reminds me a lot of

448
00:23:22,260 --> 00:23:23,260
a Disney character.

449
00:23:23,340 --> 00:23:24,460
They can be anything.

450
00:23:24,780 --> 00:23:28,000
And that's what they did with Playmates.
They really took and they found

451
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:32,380
storylines for these characters to be
able to be in almost any dimension, any

452
00:23:32,380 --> 00:23:36,660
time. So being in the military,
obviously that's right in the realm of

453
00:23:36,660 --> 00:23:37,840
would expect a Ninja Turtle to do.

454
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:40,760
So the toy's graded pretty good.

455
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:43,680
85 .4 is what it says down here.

456
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,400
This is pretty cool and interesting. I
wanted you to take a look at it.

457
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:49,220
Do you mind to play? Yeah, absolutely.

458
00:23:49,420 --> 00:23:50,299
Go for it.

459
00:23:50,300 --> 00:23:54,620
So Leo obviously is the leader of the
Ninja Turtles. So from a collector's

460
00:23:54,620 --> 00:23:56,380
standpoint, he's always collected.

461
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,780
Playmates is known for letting
prototypes out the door.

462
00:24:01,300 --> 00:24:03,460
They're also known to make more
prototypes.

463
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,280
So it's common to see what we would call
a naked prototype.

464
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:10,420
Along these lines, they're testing to
make sure that everything looks good

465
00:24:10,420 --> 00:24:12,460
before paint. So this is right before
paint.

466
00:24:13,790 --> 00:24:17,770
Very, very cool figure. Very
collectible. And it's in really good

467
00:24:17,970 --> 00:24:20,990
because you got to think when it's a
prototype, it gets shipped around all

468
00:24:20,990 --> 00:24:21,789
the office.

469
00:24:21,790 --> 00:24:26,090
Oh. And so usually you see some type of
like major scuffs and damage and stuff.

470
00:24:26,230 --> 00:24:28,870
But overall, he looks really, really
nice. So I think it's a really great

471
00:24:28,870 --> 00:24:31,490
example of a prototype for the Ninja
Turtles. OK.

472
00:24:32,930 --> 00:24:36,350
What do you think these are worth, the
graded toy and also the prototype?

473
00:24:36,670 --> 00:24:40,130
So I think as a pair, $2 ,900 is a fair
assessment.

474
00:24:40,650 --> 00:24:43,010
I think you'd have no problem being able
to sell them.

475
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,280
All right. Well, I appreciate you coming
by. Absolutely. Thank you. Good luck.

476
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,960
Thank you. Appreciate you. All right.
Well, after hearing everything Steve

477
00:24:50,220 --> 00:24:53,440
I really want to buy it. He did value it
a little less than you were asking.

478
00:24:53,820 --> 00:24:56,740
Would you take like $1 ,900 for the
pair?

479
00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:03,900
That would be too low. I would probably
drop down to $2 ,600 maybe.

480
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:05,880
I do really love it.

481
00:25:06,120 --> 00:25:11,140
I could come up to maybe like $2 ,300 if
you can make that work. If not, I think

482
00:25:11,140 --> 00:25:12,280
that I would just have to pass today.

483
00:25:12,860 --> 00:25:15,080
If he wins a $2 ,400, I think I could
get it done.

484
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,620
All right, I think I can do $2 ,400. All
right, let's do it.

485
00:25:17,980 --> 00:25:19,700
I'll meet you over there, and I'll get
you paid. Great.

486
00:25:28,900 --> 00:25:34,500
What do we got going on here?

487
00:25:34,860 --> 00:25:37,300
I got a Luke Skywalker land speeder
here.

488
00:25:38,460 --> 00:25:40,060
Awesome. Do you know what this is?

489
00:25:40,810 --> 00:25:44,430
Oh, it's Star Wars. All right, yeah,
it's pretty cool. This is like an iconic

490
00:25:44,430 --> 00:25:45,430
vehicle in the movie.

491
00:25:45,710 --> 00:25:47,290
This is the speeder I'm looking for.

492
00:25:50,430 --> 00:25:53,810
These are pretty cool. You can imagine
when it came out, this was the hottest

493
00:25:53,810 --> 00:25:56,530
item for Christmas, and it was a Toys R
Us exclusive.

494
00:25:57,810 --> 00:26:00,850
Believe it or not, this is supposed to
be able to fit two kids in it, just like

495
00:26:00,850 --> 00:26:01,850
you could do in the movies.

496
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,100
Just the way it's designed, it has the
wheels on the bottom, but they're tucked

497
00:26:05,100 --> 00:26:08,960
way under it so that it actually looks
like it's floating around exactly like

498
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:09,960
would in the movie.

499
00:26:10,020 --> 00:26:12,860
It looks pretty beat up, but it's
supposed to look that way because Luke

500
00:26:12,860 --> 00:26:16,040
Skywalker didn't have any money, you
know? He was willing to ride around in

501
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:17,040
whatever he could get.

502
00:26:17,620 --> 00:26:22,940
The Landspeeder came out in 2017, but
shortly after, Toys R Us went out of

503
00:26:22,940 --> 00:26:25,740
business, and they started to liquidate
all this stuff.

504
00:26:26,310 --> 00:26:31,370
So you were able to actually purchase
one of these for $100 to $250 at one

505
00:26:31,370 --> 00:26:33,950
point. At the time of liquidation, they
just wanted to get rid of everything.

506
00:26:34,370 --> 00:26:35,730
Does it still work?

507
00:26:36,050 --> 00:26:38,290
It still runs. I just don't have the
battery charger.

508
00:26:38,670 --> 00:26:41,650
All right. Well, that's probably not too
hard of a thing to get.

509
00:26:41,910 --> 00:26:43,150
Is it charged right now?

510
00:26:43,430 --> 00:26:45,470
Yes. A light bulb is going off in my
head.

511
00:26:46,490 --> 00:26:48,530
How would you feel about test driving
this thing?

512
00:26:48,790 --> 00:26:52,810
I would love to test this out. All
right. Are you okay with this beautiful

513
00:26:52,810 --> 00:26:54,630
man hopping in and testing it out?

514
00:26:55,130 --> 00:26:56,190
Yeah. All right.

515
00:26:56,430 --> 00:26:58,670
You might have to hang your feet out of
it. You're a little tall.

516
00:27:03,610 --> 00:27:04,730
I think this is pretty good.

517
00:27:05,270 --> 00:27:07,230
All right, so you're in high speed right
here.

518
00:27:07,450 --> 00:27:08,450
Oh, yeah, right here.

519
00:27:21,650 --> 00:27:22,730
Yeah, it worked pretty good.

520
00:27:23,410 --> 00:27:25,430
All right, pick up speed. You're going
over that bump.

521
00:27:26,130 --> 00:27:27,850
Oh, there we go.

522
00:27:31,550 --> 00:27:33,130
I think it worked pretty good overall.

523
00:27:33,450 --> 00:27:36,750
Apparently you never learn how to
parallel park, but, yeah, I can imagine

524
00:27:36,750 --> 00:27:39,570
one kid in there, it probably goes a
little bit faster, too, and maybe the

525
00:27:39,570 --> 00:27:42,250
battery needs to be charged up a little
more. All right, well, you're having too

526
00:27:42,250 --> 00:27:43,450
much fun. Let's get out of there.

527
00:27:44,210 --> 00:27:45,210
All right.

528
00:27:45,410 --> 00:27:47,530
So what are you looking to get out of
this?

529
00:27:48,270 --> 00:27:49,270
$250.

530
00:27:49,750 --> 00:27:50,750
Um...

531
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,620
I got a little wear and tear in it, and
there was a time when you could pick

532
00:27:54,620 --> 00:27:58,780
this up for under $250 brand new. So I'm
not going to be able to give you $250

533
00:27:58,780 --> 00:27:59,780
for it.

534
00:28:00,140 --> 00:28:01,620
Would you take $50 for it?

535
00:28:03,120 --> 00:28:04,120
How about $80?

536
00:28:04,540 --> 00:28:05,540
What do you think?

537
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:08,200
I think $80 will do.

538
00:28:09,820 --> 00:28:14,040
I agree. I think $80 is a fair price for
it. It leaves me enough room to make a

539
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,600
profit, and you don't have to take it
home. Deal.

540
00:28:17,020 --> 00:28:19,320
Jake, you want to take them to the
counter and write them up? All right.

541
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,200
Follow Jake. All right. While I play.

542
00:28:23,100 --> 00:28:26,040
I guess the force wasn't with me, but
I'll take the 80 bucks.

543
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:27,280
It's better than nothing.

544
00:28:37,360 --> 00:28:41,600
All right, what do we got here? I've got
almost every single car that MaxWalks

545
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,560
put out between 1953 and 1969.

546
00:28:45,420 --> 00:28:47,920
Didn't rob a toy store, did you? No, I
did not. Okay.

547
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:51,760
So where did you get all this?

548
00:28:52,020 --> 00:28:54,480
I've been collecting since I was young,
actually.

549
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:58,900
There's roughly 1 ,000 pieces, almost
600 of them in boxes.

550
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:03,200
Matchbox is a huge company. I mean,
there's a huge collector market out

551
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:04,200
for them.

552
00:29:04,700 --> 00:29:09,760
Everything is pre-'70, which is
considered the most collectible because

553
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:15,040
Matchbox changed their whole way of
manufacturing due to Hot Wheels being

554
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:19,030
released. Most Matchbox cars are scaled
-down versions of actual vehicles.

555
00:29:19,290 --> 00:29:22,810
Kids went crazy for them, but then Hot
Wheels came out with wilder, Hot Rod

556
00:29:22,810 --> 00:29:26,230
-type cars. So to keep up, Matchbox
completely transformed their line.

557
00:29:26,450 --> 00:29:29,710
Now the cars from the 50s and the 60s
can be worth some serious money.

558
00:29:29,990 --> 00:29:34,430
This collection is without duplicates.
Everything in here is different. Right.

559
00:29:34,570 --> 00:29:40,990
For an example, this car here, it's a BP
gas tanker. The fact that it has gray

560
00:29:40,990 --> 00:29:43,750
wheels instead of black plastic wheels.

561
00:29:44,300 --> 00:29:45,920
Makes us a $1 ,000 car.

562
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:47,880
Okay. Let's see.

563
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:53,280
Here I've got Team Queen Coronation
Coaches. There was only 200 ever made in

564
00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:56,880
1953. That will go for between $2 ,000
and $2 ,500.

565
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:00,000
I've got to admit, it's in great shape,
and it's got the original box, which is

566
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,140
amazing. So what do you want to do with
these?

567
00:30:02,740 --> 00:30:04,520
I'm hoping to pawn them.

568
00:30:04,740 --> 00:30:06,280
Okay. How much were you looking to get?

569
00:30:06,860 --> 00:30:08,560
I'm hoping to get $20 ,000.

570
00:30:09,660 --> 00:30:10,660
$20 ,000.

571
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:12,240
Okay.

572
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:16,420
I don't know enough about this stuff to
just shell out $20 ,000. Right.

573
00:30:16,820 --> 00:30:20,800
But my buddy Johnny will now. So let me
get him down here, have him go through

574
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:24,760
all these boxes, and maybe we'll get
something done.

575
00:30:25,020 --> 00:30:27,240
Okay. All right, I'll be right back. Let
me give him a call. Thanks.

576
00:30:27,540 --> 00:30:30,900
It's really hard to put a value on a
collection this big, so our buddy Johnny

577
00:30:30,900 --> 00:30:31,920
stopping by to check it out.

578
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:33,360
Johnny, my man.

579
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,800
Hey, what's up, guys? The guys usually
call me down here to take a look at some

580
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,420
toys or give them some more information
about a piece.

581
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:43,260
What's going on? This guy wants to pawn
all of his Matchbox stuff.

582
00:30:43,460 --> 00:30:47,360
He's got, like, thousands of cars and
pieces here, so I was hoping you could

583
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,460
maybe go through it for me. Yeah, no
problem, man.

584
00:30:49,700 --> 00:30:53,180
The Matchbox came out in the late 40s,
and they were really popular because

585
00:30:53,180 --> 00:30:57,380
had a lot of detail, a lot of moving
parts, opening doors. There was

586
00:30:57,380 --> 00:31:02,380
no competition up until 68 when Hot
Wheels released their first 16.

587
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:06,800
In the Matchbox world, the boxes are
everything. A lot of the value is the

588
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:10,640
condition. Most of the collectors that
buy the Matchbox cars, they only want to

589
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:12,580
buy them with the boxes and everything
complete.

590
00:31:13,140 --> 00:31:14,600
You got the coordination coach.

591
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:19,780
They've made 200 to 300 of these pieces
when they coronated Queen Elizabeth.

592
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:24,520
This is a really, really rare piece.
I've seen these go for $1 ,200 to $1

593
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:28,520
You've got the BP tanker with the gray
wheel. That's a $1 ,000 piece right

594
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,200
there. Also, you've got some of the king
-size pieces here.

595
00:31:31,420 --> 00:31:34,080
These can go $300 a piece.

596
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:36,520
You have some jewels in these boxes
here.

597
00:31:36,780 --> 00:31:37,980
This collection is amazing.

598
00:31:38,180 --> 00:31:42,500
I mean, boxes, condition, rarity. It has
all the factors going for it.

599
00:31:42,990 --> 00:31:44,790
So what are your questions about this
collection?

600
00:31:45,250 --> 00:31:46,250
What's it all worth?

601
00:31:47,410 --> 00:31:48,410
Everything's pretty mint.

602
00:31:48,670 --> 00:31:55,630
It's a pretty complete collection. I
would put a price in the collection at

603
00:31:55,630 --> 00:31:57,170
,000 to $28 ,000 on the whole
collection.

604
00:31:58,910 --> 00:32:00,750
I'd have to disagree with that.

605
00:32:00,970 --> 00:32:02,150
All right, what do you think it's worth?

606
00:32:02,450 --> 00:32:04,610
I'd put it at $75 ,000 myself.

607
00:32:05,450 --> 00:32:07,410
Okay, I mean, that's like top -end
retail.

608
00:32:08,190 --> 00:32:11,510
I would say about 10 years ago at the
peak of the market, you would have

609
00:32:11,510 --> 00:32:15,870
probably been closer to that number. I
would say probably $28 ,000 on today's

610
00:32:15,870 --> 00:32:17,290
value. Thanks, Johnny.

611
00:32:17,510 --> 00:32:18,429
You're the best.

612
00:32:18,430 --> 00:32:21,870
No problem, man. If this guy doesn't
come back and pick up this collection, I

613
00:32:21,870 --> 00:32:25,210
hope Rick gives me a call because this
is the kind of stuff I love to have in

614
00:32:25,210 --> 00:32:26,210
store.

615
00:32:26,250 --> 00:32:29,830
All right, my man. You're looking for a
$20 ,000 loan. I've got no problem

616
00:32:29,830 --> 00:32:30,830
giving it to you.

617
00:32:31,070 --> 00:32:34,350
$20 ,000 is a big loan. With loans like
this, you've got to make sure you're

618
00:32:34,350 --> 00:32:36,230
crystal clear and completely fair.

619
00:32:36,750 --> 00:32:39,650
Even if that means dishing out advice,
the last thing you want is some guy

620
00:32:39,650 --> 00:32:40,890
claiming you weren't up front with him.

621
00:32:41,170 --> 00:32:43,550
You got to understand, man, my typical
loan is $100.

622
00:32:45,250 --> 00:32:49,350
I strongly suggest you do not take a $20
,000 loan.

623
00:32:50,910 --> 00:32:54,050
Think of a number that you absolutely
need because you got to pay me back,

624
00:32:54,110 --> 00:32:57,190
And believe it or not, the more money I
loan you, the more money I make. Right.

625
00:32:57,270 --> 00:32:58,490
It's a 120 -day loan.

626
00:32:59,010 --> 00:33:00,850
You don't pick it up. The stuff's mine.

627
00:33:01,350 --> 00:33:02,350
Fair enough.

628
00:33:02,790 --> 00:33:04,070
So what do you want to do?

629
00:33:09,370 --> 00:33:10,730
I need the $20 ,000.

630
00:33:11,410 --> 00:33:13,430
It's not what I want. It's what I need.

631
00:33:13,770 --> 00:33:15,030
All right. Write them up, son.

632
00:33:15,370 --> 00:33:16,370
All right, man. Deal.

633
00:33:16,630 --> 00:33:17,630
Thank you.

634
00:33:18,050 --> 00:33:22,590
I appreciate the fact that they
attempted to lower my loan amount.

635
00:33:22,590 --> 00:33:27,130
loan amount is what I was needing, and I
will see them soon to retrieve my car.

636
00:33:31,130 --> 00:33:36,310
How's it going?

637
00:33:36,620 --> 00:33:41,080
Pretty good. How you doing? Good. I have
the ultimate WWF wrestling collectible

638
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,420
for you. I have a Papa Shango prototype.

639
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,000
They call it a test shot from the toy
company.

640
00:33:46,740 --> 00:33:49,240
And with it looks like maybe a
blueprint?

641
00:33:50,060 --> 00:33:51,060
Yes, it's a blueprint.

642
00:33:51,220 --> 00:33:53,340
They would do one for each of the
wrestling figures.

643
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:56,720
This blueprint actually goes into depth
kind of like the actions that I was

644
00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:59,280
going to do. And it says right here, the
boxer mechanism.

645
00:33:59,540 --> 00:34:01,980
So I guess they were giving him the
punch.

646
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:06,890
Right. I got my Hasbro prototype and my
blueprint from a Hasbro employee.

647
00:34:07,270 --> 00:34:10,630
I let them know I was the number one
Papa Shango fan, and I wouldn't leave

648
00:34:10,630 --> 00:34:13,330
alone until they finally made me a deal,
and I could add it to my collection.

649
00:34:13,550 --> 00:34:16,530
I'm hoping to get for the figurine and
blueprint $2 ,500.

650
00:34:17,190 --> 00:34:18,190
It's worth it.

651
00:34:18,310 --> 00:34:19,310
This is cool.

652
00:34:19,469 --> 00:34:23,290
I'm actually super excited to see this.
I myself am a wrestling fan. I still

653
00:34:23,290 --> 00:34:27,050
watch a little WWE, but WWF is my era.

654
00:34:27,330 --> 00:34:29,969
So Papa Shango kind of did voodoo magic.

655
00:34:30,590 --> 00:34:34,150
He did control the lights kind of like
The Undertaker, so that was pretty cool.

656
00:34:34,190 --> 00:34:37,550
He was doing it even before The
Undertaker, right around the same time.

657
00:34:37,550 --> 00:34:38,909
skull, it would smoke.

658
00:34:39,150 --> 00:34:43,090
It would smoke, and then he would put
wrestlers out by doing voodoo to them.

659
00:34:43,330 --> 00:34:44,449
So I loved it.

660
00:34:45,150 --> 00:34:49,100
But... You know, a few years after 93,
the Attitude Era really started to come

661
00:34:49,100 --> 00:34:53,040
in, and Papa Shango was rebranded into
the Godfather. When the Godfather came

662
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:58,020
out, he blew up. Of the time period, you
know, obviously you have the Stone Cold

663
00:34:58,020 --> 00:35:02,540
Steve Austens and, you know, the
Undertakers, and, I mean, the Godfather

664
00:35:02,540 --> 00:35:06,720
right up there with these guys. He has a
cult following. People love all of the

665
00:35:06,720 --> 00:35:09,400
characters he did. It's kind of cool,
because a lot of the time when your

666
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:11,660
character gets rebranded, it's because
it wasn't working.

667
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,520
And somehow, he was able to rebrand
every time and make it work.

668
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:17,680
I really love that about his career.

669
00:35:18,460 --> 00:35:24,860
This blueprint looks to be a copy with
maybe some hand -drawn corrections on

670
00:35:24,860 --> 00:35:27,760
here. It's really cool, though, to see
it on one large piece of paper,

671
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:32,200
everything from the WWF logo laid out.
It's even showing the scale.

672
00:35:32,460 --> 00:35:33,700
I absolutely love it.

673
00:35:34,180 --> 00:35:35,780
What are you looking to do with this?

674
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:39,960
I'm hoping to get $2 ,500 for both. OK.
I'm not sure what I'd pay for it. I

675
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,420
mean. I know I'd want to put it in my
collection, though.

676
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,460
I want to research it just a bit. I also
want to have someone come down and take

677
00:35:46,460 --> 00:35:50,260
a look at it. If I can get some eyes on
this, I can be sure that it's a

678
00:35:50,260 --> 00:35:52,000
prototype. I'm going to go make a phone
call.

679
00:35:52,260 --> 00:35:54,460
Can you give me a few minutes, and I'll
come back and let you know what's going

680
00:35:54,460 --> 00:35:57,160
on? Sure, no problem. Perfect. I'll be
right back. Thank you.

681
00:36:03,240 --> 00:36:04,700
The train has arrived!

682
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:12,380
What's going on, chum? How you doing, my
brother? Good. Good to see you as

683
00:36:12,380 --> 00:36:16,040
always. Papa Shango, a .k .a. The
Godfather. Nice to meet you.

684
00:36:16,340 --> 00:36:20,780
Well, thanks for coming by. I have
something really cool here. It is a

685
00:36:20,780 --> 00:36:24,200
of Papa Shango. I think this was your
first action figure.

686
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:31,100
His story is that it is a prototype, and
if this was a prototype, then the man

687
00:36:31,100 --> 00:36:33,320
who it's made after would have
definitely seen it.

688
00:36:33,540 --> 00:36:34,540
Wow.

689
00:36:34,710 --> 00:36:39,850
I have only seen one of these before.
There's only a handful of them, but I

690
00:36:39,850 --> 00:36:43,990
haven't seen one in a long time. It is
legit. It is the one. And I see you have

691
00:36:43,990 --> 00:36:45,150
the prints, too.

692
00:36:45,630 --> 00:36:47,970
That's impressive. That's old. They're
very rare.

693
00:36:48,310 --> 00:36:53,770
So what was it like around, you know,
93, 94, right here in the WWE when they

694
00:36:53,770 --> 00:36:57,010
were making them? Oh, my. I was having
the time of my life.

695
00:36:57,340 --> 00:36:58,820
We were living like rock stars.

696
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:02,100
We were on TV three or four times a day.

697
00:37:02,340 --> 00:37:06,740
The WWF at the time would have loved to
kept running with that character.

698
00:37:07,060 --> 00:37:11,400
But you know, it was better for me to
take a break for a while. So were you

699
00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:14,580
involved in the process at all, or
making this? Back then, you know, you

700
00:37:14,580 --> 00:37:17,860
just happy to get one. That was my first
action figure.

701
00:37:18,100 --> 00:37:22,260
Man, I don't even have one. Well, if I
buy this, you still won't, because I'm

702
00:37:22,260 --> 00:37:23,260
putting it in my collection.

703
00:37:23,380 --> 00:37:24,058
Oh, Joe.

704
00:37:24,060 --> 00:37:25,120
Man, it's rare.

705
00:37:26,620 --> 00:37:30,780
Yeah, well, the Papa Shango figure on
its own, the general release, it holds

706
00:37:30,780 --> 00:37:34,600
really good value. There's a lot of
money in these 90s WWE figures.

707
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,560
But I've seen all kinds of prototype
toys.

708
00:37:37,860 --> 00:37:40,640
Right. I've never seen a prototype
wrestling toy.

709
00:37:40,860 --> 00:37:44,060
Yeah, it's the real deal. Hard to get. I
wouldn't even know what the value would

710
00:37:44,060 --> 00:37:47,400
be on something like that. I've done
some research on my own. I'm going to

711
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,600
to buy it. I'm really happy you got to
come down and see it.

712
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:53,340
Oh, man, always a pleasure seeing you,
my friend. Always a pleasure.

713
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,120
And you, good luck with that, okay?
Thank you, Godfather.

714
00:37:56,380 --> 00:37:57,380
Pretty cool, huh?

715
00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:01,420
Awesome. All right, well, the Godfather
likes it, and I like it.

716
00:38:01,720 --> 00:38:03,160
I hope you don't like it more now.

717
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:08,320
I'm liking it more every minute. All
right, so price is impossible to find on

718
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,920
this. It's kind of one of those things
you're going to get what someone wants

719
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:15,880
pay for it, only if you're willing to
sell it at that price. Would you go $1

720
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:17,440
,300 for both of them?

721
00:38:18,109 --> 00:38:21,410
I really don't want to go that low. I
really want to get $2 ,500 if I can for

722
00:38:21,410 --> 00:38:22,410
both. Okay.

723
00:38:22,770 --> 00:38:26,830
I would love to buy it. I think maybe $1
,400 is the most I could pay, though.

724
00:38:27,290 --> 00:38:29,550
What do you think about that? Are you
just firm on your $2 ,500?

725
00:38:29,850 --> 00:38:32,510
Yeah, I'm pretty firm on the $2 ,500.
There's no way you could do that?

726
00:38:33,510 --> 00:38:38,550
I can't right now, you know. Maybe in
the future I'll try to get in contact

727
00:38:38,550 --> 00:38:41,650
you and buy it for my personal
collection, but today I'm going to have

728
00:38:41,950 --> 00:38:42,950
Okay, I understand.

729
00:38:43,150 --> 00:38:46,670
Well, thanks for bringing it in. I
appreciate you, and I hope you enjoyed

730
00:38:46,670 --> 00:38:47,670
meeting the Godfather.

731
00:38:47,730 --> 00:38:50,050
Oh, you're very welcome. That was a
great, great day for me.

732
00:38:50,970 --> 00:38:53,890
All right. There you go. You can leave
it with me if you want, or you can just

733
00:38:53,890 --> 00:38:57,250
take it with you. I'll have to take it
this time. Sorry. Thank you. Thank you,

734
00:38:57,290 --> 00:38:58,290
Chimley.

735
00:39:14,089 --> 00:39:15,770
What? What are you doing?

736
00:39:16,470 --> 00:39:17,470
Nothing.

737
00:39:18,690 --> 00:39:19,690
Playing with the train.

738
00:39:19,970 --> 00:39:20,970
It's not a toy.

739
00:39:21,110 --> 00:39:22,110
Yeah, it is.

740
00:39:22,550 --> 00:39:26,630
It is a fine piece of machinery, and
you're not going to mess with it.

741
00:39:27,310 --> 00:39:31,510
I knew the second I bought this, it was
just a matter of time before Chum

742
00:39:31,510 --> 00:39:32,510
started messing with it.

743
00:39:33,190 --> 00:39:34,610
At least tell me how it works.

744
00:39:35,090 --> 00:39:37,550
You know, Chum, I'm not even going to
tell you how it works because you're

745
00:39:37,550 --> 00:39:40,070
to end up messing with it, and you're
going to break it. How do you turn it

746
00:39:40,910 --> 00:39:44,170
You just don't turn it on. You have to
build up steam pressure and some other

747
00:39:44,170 --> 00:39:45,910
things like that. Is that what this
knob's for?

748
00:39:46,970 --> 00:39:50,370
No, I'm not telling you. It's kind of
hot down here. And give me my hat. It's

749
00:39:50,370 --> 00:39:51,370
getting hot.

750
00:39:51,630 --> 00:39:54,610
Chum plus a model train equals trouble.

751
00:39:55,210 --> 00:39:57,690
Chum plus a $2 ,000 model train?

752
00:39:58,010 --> 00:39:59,550
I don't even want to think about it.

753
00:40:00,210 --> 00:40:02,410
Take the trash out and quit playing with
it, all right?

754
00:40:03,170 --> 00:40:04,170
Chum, the hat.

755
00:40:04,210 --> 00:40:05,670
What hat? The hat.

756
00:40:08,390 --> 00:40:09,450
Don't play with it.

757
00:40:22,030 --> 00:40:23,030
Okay.
