That Was Rad. All rad, all the time. We buy, sell and ramble on about awesome stuff from the 80’s and 90’s.

We’re a UK-based independent seller of vintage toys and games from the 70s, 80s, 90s and beyond. It grew out of a hobby of collecting awesome stuff from when we were kids, fueled by nostalgia, cartoons, video games and refusal to grow up.

The master toy hunters at That Was Rad hunt around the world to find the finest toys from your childhood (and ours). We can ship worldwide. contact us for a quote.

Have a browse at our collection of vintage and retro toys and reminisce back to when times were simpler. Why not treat yourself to that toy your best mate had and you always wanted!
