[QUOTE="TheJabbaWookie, post: 493471, member: 9217"] I only have three real Star Wars memories that I can vividly recall. One was walking down the aisle of the brand new Tesco’s in Colchester not long after I saw the movie for the first time on tv in 1982. I was almost as much in awe of the size of the supermarket as I was about the rows of floor to roof shelves of Star Wars’ Toys. I was hunting for a Christmas present and I remember settling on Darth Vader’s Tie Fighter. My second memory was when we were allowed to bring our favourite toys into school on the last day of term in July 1984. I remember the teacher that allowed it which enables me to date it. I can’t remember what I took but my mate brought in the Dagobah playset and I remember thinking it was the coolest toy ever. I so wanted one of those. My last memory was receiving two Gamorrean Guards for Christmas in 1984 and having a dilemma as whether to return one or keep both. I can work out the year as Star Wars was on at Christmas. I decided to keep it and it was my only army builder figure I had more than 1 of :lol: I do have a photo of me one Christmas opening presents including the Falcon and the Imperial Troop Transporter but I’ve misplaced it and I’m gutted.
