What Investors Say
Isaac Thomas
LEAD INVESTOR
As a dedicated Member of hobbyDB and PPG for many years, I know this is the right team to make this business a true success. Their vision, dedication, and hustle continue to inspire me and I know that there are only exciting things to come for hobbyDB. The hobbyDB App is the absolute best tool out there to manage my collection and I’ve continued to have success selling on the hobbyDB marketplace. When you combine the community’s best resource plus the giant market size, it’s the perfect opportunity to invest.
Enjoy providing micro-investments in a diverse set of small businesses that are trying to grow their businesses.
I've been thrilled to invest in hobbyDB three times since 2020 and witness its incredible growth firsthand! With a stellar 4.8 rating on the App Store and over 6k glowing reviews, it's amazing to see how far we've come. I remember when hobbyDB didn't even have an app, and now, hobbyDB has the potential to become a beloved resource for collectors everywhere.
Passionate about entrepreneurship
I'm a proud investor in HobbyDB, the community is just amazing, and the team is just at the very beginning of its journey!
Love startups and the Oppurtunites to help the small investor get a chance to build wealth and foster innovation
Great news
I found out about hobbyDB a couple of years ago when I was trying to find out the value out my Funko Pop collection. Then I found all the other things your site offers and found this to be one of the most comprehensive ways to find values and connect with buyers and sellers out there. I believe in the direction and growth and can see this being a name brand for collections as the go to source.
I'm retired & live in Garwood, Texas & have two grown children...Amy & Jeff. I love movies & being a part of Legion M! Onward and Upward!
I believe this company is going to be very successful and because I’m a founding investor in Legion M.

I love the idea of a one stop shop place for all things collectable! The HobbyDB platform is the future of online collectables.
I turn words into stories.
I'm a Legion M investor, and if the Legion believes in hobbyDB, so do I! ...but seriously, the market needs what hobbyDB is offering.

I believe in the company. I hope the investment pays off in the years to come!
Tech CEO
I have a collection of old Console games, and own a storefront that actually sells them, as well as a shop and company that can restore them and other old school things. It'd be nice to have 1 platform that I can reference all pricing for stuff on, valuation, etc. and have a more realistic idea to give my clients about whether or not something is worth restoring.
What Friends Say
Adam GoldbergCreator & Producer of The Goldbergs
When you own an 80's toy collection that could fill the trailers of 10 life-size Optimus Primes, you start to get a little hazy on what items you have and what you still need. I love the hobbyDB concept because it's perfect for helping me keep track by documenting my collection!
Larry WoodDesigner of Hot Wheels
I've been designing Hot Wheels since 1969 and I love how hobbyDB is set up to document everything about the subject, from the cars to the designers that made them!
Steve VolkDirector, American Shelby Collection
The goal of the American Shelby Collection is to collect everything to do with the Shelby brand and cars. hobbyDB will help us fill in the gaps and, eventually, you’ll be able to see our complete 40,000-item collection on there. That’s great as we never have space to display all of it in the real world.
Frank KozikChief Creative Officer at Kidrobot LLC
We work on so many projects with so many artists, we would never have the time to maintain our own archive and now we don't need to because it's all on hobbyDB!

hobbyDB is awesome!
William TaylorFounder Auto-Archives & Publisher Coterie-Press
We are working on plans to document Auto-Archives 300,000 objects on hobbyDB and Coterie-Press is hosting its official archive on the site giving us lots of extra exposure. I love the hobbyDB vision and am proud of being part of making it happen.
Marty AbramsPresident, Mego Corporation
"Mego has been making toys since 1954 and we're thrilled that hobbyDB is documenting them all! We've got a number of projects in discussion with them and we're looking forward to making them a reality!"
Matt OldweilerCreator Geepeekay.com, the #1 Garbage Pail Kids website
"I love what Alex and her team at HobbyDB are building for collectors. The creation of a flexible collection-management tool that is not only flexible and robust, but also easily integrated into my site, is something that has never existed before!"
Jim CowenFounder Automodello and Diecasm
hobbyDB is unparalleled as a model car database - it's my go-to place for checking to see which cars have been modeled and which haven't!
Mac RaganDesigner of Johnny Lightning and GreenLight models
I design toy cars, collect models from around the world, and write about them regularly. I find hobbyDB especially useful when researching obscure toys. I love the concise brand-histories and learning about variations I never knew existed!
