Retro by Ronnie

[Harrison]

I just visited Retro by Ronnie in Goring-by-Sea (Worthing, West Sussex, UK).

I've knew about this place. Have even walking right past it a couple of times, but only after speaking to someone at Tom's swimming this morning did we visit.

If you are into Star Wars then it's a must visit. They have every vintage Star Wars figure in loose, carded and sealed graded condition. Plus a lot of retro bigger SW vehicles. And a lot of newer stuff too. Plus new figures and collectable.

They also specialise in Pokemon cards, with a lot of graded cards right back to originals and unopened graded packs.

And also collections from every other retro series you could think of such as He-Man, Ghostbusters, Rocky, Marvel, DC, Grandstand and Game and Watch standalone video games, some retro consoles, board games, Matchbox, paintings etc.

It's an amazing shop, created within an old bank building that still has the old vaults and safes in the basement which they have utilised as part of the displays. It has been laid out like a museum. The only difference is you can buy every exhibit! Only opened at the end of 2021 and when I looked it up they have loads of cosplay events and members of the 501st days.
