About Us

The Fishing Hub is a small, standalone NZ business founded in 2015, beginning life on Trade Me and slowly growing into an official Trade Me Store. Our Trade Me range remains broad, with a strong focus on older releases and harder‑to‑find items that collectors still hunt for today.

This website shifts the focus toward newer release collectible action figures, playsets, and accessories, while still offering the occasional rare or hard‑to‑find gem when they come along.

As both an in‑box and out‑of‑box collector, I know how challenging it can be to track down those harder‑to‑find pieces — and how important packaging condition is when they arrive at your door. You'll see that reflected in the care taken with protective packaging for your special items.

My love of movies, TV, and comics began back in the 1970s with Lost in Space, Sinbad, Doctor Who, Star Trek, DC, Planet of the Apes, Jaws, and of course Star Wars — I still remember being at the front of the queue at the Cinerama in Wellington on opening day. That early spark turned into a lifelong appreciation for the worlds and characters we all enjoy.

What I love most about action figures is how they bring those moments back to life, filling us with nostalgia for the movies, TV shows, and comic properties we grew up with — and now doing the same for new generations.

I'm always open to stocking new lines or helping you track down something hard to find.
