    Join me as I take a look around 2 Barry Potter Toy Fairs - Bolton Stadium and Doncaster Racecourse - Over the course of 2 days! I was knackered by the end of it and a little lighter in the pocket too!
    This is a long one, so grab a drink and some snacks and sit back as we go over the 2 day adventure and see what I picked up!
    Special thanks to Nic of ‪@nemastudios3634‬ for taking time out of his super busy day to talk to me again!
    Special thanks to the one and only Theo of ‪@slimehousetv‬ for been the star signing!!

    Awesome video as usual Gareth. I had those Reboot/Captain Scarlet/Street Shark/Mighty Max sets back in the day. Btw awesome haul especially those Mars Attack figures 🔥👍😃
    Also I'm hoping to go to Doncaster Toy Fair on the 18th February for the first time. It's part of my new year resolution (plus watching your videos and Slimehouse videos, it's made me more determined to go) 👍

    This is a great video, loved the “ mars attacks “ items, was wondering if you picked them up and you did ,
    Those “ multi Mac” construction sets were really cool too, as well as the little Reboot set, liked them all

    I'm about 9m 30s in. Is this footage of after doors have opened? Doesn't look very busy :/
    Really need to make it down to one of these. But then I see some of the prices lol
    But that mini playset was v reasonably priced. And I saw figures for IPs I never even knew had figures. (V for Vendetta and... Pulp Fiction???)
    D'you ever see the TF Movie Series Bumblebee MPM 03 Masterpiece? On the look out for that for a friend but they don't want to pay through the nose for it lol

      The fairs are a little strange for ‘doors opening’. The fair officially opens at 10.30 but public can pay a higher ‘early bird’ entry fee to get in at the same time as the traders. (This is something that really annoys me as there’s nothing yet for them to look at so they just kind of wander aimlessly and get in your way when you are trying to carry loads down narrow aisles from your car to the stall, seriously I could do a whole video on that! I mean, at least give us half an hour to empty our vehicles, right?) so yeah, there’s not a huge amount of public at this time so I can get around to film, but when the doors do open later I don’t get chance to leave the stall to film.
      Yeah, some prices can be well over priced, there one item that was priced at £125, I actually had the same one on the day at £65 so thought I may have missed a price hike but when I checked it was selling online for £55-£70. I’ve actually had that piece several years and it sold at this event and I reckon the other guy overpricing it probably helped me out hahaha.
      Neca have done some stuff you wouldn’t expect… it would be nice to see them rerelease some of their older more obscure products but then they would probably do so at today’s price points too…
      I haven’t seen that particular Bumblebee but am happy to keep my eyes open

      @@CosmicToys Ah, OK. That makes sense now bc some of those people didn't look like traders.
      Letting public paying early bird prices in at same time as traders is a v strange choice - what are they even doing while traders are setting up? (Other than getting in your way lol.)
      If you see the Chevrolet Bb at a show or if someone trades ones in then a heads-up would be appreciated. Thanks. (And I'll let you know if he gets one elsewhere. Pretty sure he's looking at doing a swap with someone but they can't agree on the trade.)
