    Star Wars: Droids - What's the appeal?

    Hey all, I'd really like to get a consensus here. Like you, I'm a devoted vintage Star Wars collector, but recently I've seen a massive spike in the value of Star Wars: Droids figures. I don't collect them myself, nor have I had any interest. They used to be just a fringe subset that could be...

    she said what....

    Melinda is working on a video to address this phenomenon as a way to try and get other women to stop being so hard on their toy enthusiast boyfriends and husbands. I will keep you posted.

    Retroblasting - Palitoy Death Star Playset

    Thanks for the kind words, everyone. Just some background - We received a letter from a chap (credited at the beginning of the video) who said he had his childhood Palitoy Death Star and he didn't want it to be sold to a stranger, but he had to get rid of it for space purposes. It was in amazing...

    Found My Holy Grail!

    Big congrats from the USA! Finding your childhood companions is a major win. When we came back from the UK, my toys had been in storage in the USA for three years plus. As the truck was unloaded, I was frantically trying to find the Star Wars figures. GI Joes surfaced, Transformers surfaced...

    SWFUK PODCAST Rebranding

    While I am one of those "stupid Americans" that loves this forum, I was neither confused by the original logo, nor upset that it has changed. Maybe that's because I grew up in Surrey, or maybe because I identify with Brits more than Americans. Or maybe because I understand that change is...

    Yeah. It was a comment made on one of the B-Wing videos.

    Retroblasting - Y-Wing Restoration *Updated with P2*

    That becomes a dicey trick. Some say use a hair dryer on low heat, keeping it about a foot away from the toy, and dry out the adhesive so the sticker will easily come away from the surface of the toy. Others say they use lighter fluid to remove the sticker adhesive, however, if the sticker is...
