The biggest problem is it is 90 freaking degrees out here. It is horrible hot. I feel so sorry for the people that are cosplaying in these full costumes. Dylan was going to come in a costume. Who are you going to be? >> Grand Regent, right? >> So, he had this full costume with the furry back and everything and the cape and we got out of the car. He's like, "Nope." So, kudos to these ones in the cosplay, especially guys wearing black. But we found some pretty cool stuff today. Are you happy with what you found? >> Yeah. And I've got no problem showing him in my videos anymore because believe it or not, he's 12 now. Wow. You got old because people probably follow my channel for a long time remember you as the cute cute little kid. >> Now you're just the kid. >> What do you think about that? >> So what's the coolest thing you've seen here so far? >> Uh probably do flamingo. >> Do flamingo. Yeah. Do flamingo cosplay was pretty cool. There's a guy. There was the moth man. and he showed up in the video later on. But we just wanted to give you an update. I'm waiting. Uh I want to interview one more person and I think we're going to head out because I'm melting. [music] I totally missed this display earlier. Check out these vintage toys. That's awesome.

That's awesome. >> Okay, I have had a blast here at the Pullman Geek Festival. It's been a pretty good show. Lots of people. See if I can spin around without falling over somebody. So, this has been a a hoot. Dylan has come with me. We've spent so much money. I think we already went over that. >> Yeah. Yeah, pretty awesome. Pretty neat that the whole community gets together like this. You don't see this often. So maybe I can start getting something like this to come to my town. That would be awesome. What do you think? Something Greenbar County Comic Book Festival. >> Yeah, >> Geek Festival. Greenar County Geekfest has a great ring to it. Heat. Heat. N. Well, our funfilled day at Pullman Geekfest has come to an end. We got home a few hours ago, went out to dinner, went to Dave and Busters, and that was Dylan and I's first time going to Dave and Busters. What did you think about that? >> It was pretty good. >> It was pretty good. I had a super duper bacon burger. So, anyway, Pullman Geekfest was a blast. About the only complaint I have with it is it was so hot. How hot was it? >> Really hot. >> It was really hot. This is my niece Olivia. She uh joined us for Geekfest and she decided she wanted to be part of this haul video since we did a convention or a festival or whatever you want to call it. We did buy lots of stuff.

The first thing I got was this Funko Pop limited edition Jet Fire. This is from uh I forget their name now. Alleycat Collectibles. I saw this and it's already sealed up.

And then I had to hit the mini fig guy up as well. I got a Jason Vorhees. If you follow my channel, you know I love Jason Vorhees. And then a G1 Megatron. And then one of the subscribers who came up to say hi to me gifted me this studio series uh gamer sideswipe devastation sideswipe. And then at um the inner geek I found this Gobot. This is a very famous Gobot. If you follow the Transformers community, I know you've seen the gif with this Gobot. So I'm looking forward to reviewing this guy. And then lastly, a book I picked up from my brother, one I had as a kid, a Transformers choose your own adventure book, The Dinobots Strike Back. Mike had that and it's, man, I had that book as a kid and he said, "Well, you're going to have it again." So, it's going to be fun rereading this and choosing my own adventure. So, that's it. That is our haul. Um, want to thank you for watching. It was a pretty long video, but it was a very fun day. I enjoy spending the day with these two nerds.
