  • While I was in Greenville, SC we decided to hit up a place called Toy Federation. I've never seen so many toys in one place. He-Man, Transformers, TMNT, Power Rangers, Star Wars, X-Men and so many more. Even my favorites - M.A.S.K. and Go Bots. Here's a look inside the store to see what we can find.

      Hey JohnRiggs, if you’re looking for TF or Gobots… hit me up. Junkers or whole figures. That’s mostly how I make most of my money. I buy them, fix them up, & resell them. If there’s something that you’re looking for… hit me up. Even if it’s something that I don’t collect, I might be able to help you out. Or anybody for that matter! Right now I’m looking for some parts for some Zoids that I’m working on. From the 80’s & 2000’s. So if anybody is interested, give me a jingle!

    I was in here over Thanksgiving and picked up a Classics Beastman, Man E Faces and Tri-Klops. Travis was great! Store is nicely laid out for browsing and the people who work there didn't bird dog me. When I had questions, they were knowledgeable and ready to help.

    Man I wish I'd have known you'd be here. This is actually in Greer, SC just up the road from Greenville. I literally live 3 minutes from Toy Federation. They are an awesome you store, a great bunch of people. The owner, Ryan, is just the nicest guy you've ever met. They're always willing to work with you especially if you're buying multiple things. So glad they got this bigger store a while back they were busting at the seams in the old location. They also do a great job of getting celebrities in for pictures and signings. Dang sure wish I would have known I would have taken you all out to eat. Well, glad you enjoyed your visit.

    holy crap man! i just like jumped in pool of memories watching that. i seen some of these toys when i was kid. since im from russia, some stuff wasnt even known here. some of cartoons never appeared on our screens. but toys.. most of these were available.
    i was about 11-12 y.o when starwars phantom menace came out to the screens. and all these toys appeared too. but it was cool and pricey back then.
    i got just one droid from those collection.
    thanks for the video!and hello from Moscow!

    I was a big fan of M.A.S.K. when I was a kid. I wanted a flying Camaro (errr "sports car")! And of course Transformers, but I did have a Go-Bot or two as well, probably from my mom thinking they were Transformers, lol.
