Ed's Retro Geek Out

Ed's Retro Geek Out is a video-based Patreon dedicated to exploring the fascinating world of vintage toys and retro games from the 80s and 90s. Ed's passion extends beyond simply showcasing collectibles; he delves into the often-overlooked aspects of toy history, including unproduced items, recalls, banned toys, bootlegs, and KO (knock-off) versions. This unique approach provides a deeper understanding of the cultural impact and production complexities behind these beloved artifacts. Since launching in July 2020, Ed's Retro Geek Out has cultivated a community of 75 members, with 44 actively supporting his content through Patreon memberships. The channel has generated an estimated $195 in revenue, demonstrating early success in building a dedicated audience for his niche content. What sets Ed apart is his commitment to unearthing lesser-known stories and providing an in-depth perspective rarely found in typical retro toy videos.
