We've probably done these a few times but a lot of people have time on their hands at that minute so might be able to dig some pics out.

Here's a couple I just found that prove I had great taste as a child, ROTJ bedding and Thundercats wallpaper :D

Bonus points if anyone can remember what this was called?
It was stuff that you had to build and could make all sorts of different vehicles out of it.

Great tread I have a few images of me with my old star wars toys. This is the only one I can find at the moment as I was a late to the party being born in 1983 most of my star wars toys came from cousins so this picture was probably taken in 1986.

I used to make my mum set them all up like this she remembers having to do it well and also hovering up my weapons as most parents did back then.

Love it! Your's are quality Edd. I've posted these before I think, the only ones I'm aware of. I'd love it if more surfaced. It's possible, my Mum has a **** load of photos from the 80's. Might have to go round and have a hunt... not right now though :lol:

I've posted this a few times on here so apologies to those who've already seen it. My Dad dug out this picture when he heard I was collecting again, and seeing it brought back so many memories... not least that the canopies on my snowspeeder and twin-pod broke really easily!! Those plastic tabs were terrible - I know the middle tab on my Falcon ramp snapped off too. Oh, and my brother didn't look after his figures either - that's his R2! :lol:

Notice the LotJ box under the Quality Street tin too. I'm surprised it's so sturdy! We kept the boxes for almost all vehicles and playsets, and that's how they were when we sold them around 86/87. All I have from my childhood SW collection is 1 hoth backpack... but this photo and the memories are priceless!

Great picture although I'm wondering how you played with the 12" chewy, Boba and R2 together?! That must have been some interesting imagination to get all 3 of those together in a play scene :D

:lol: I've got to admit as cool as those 12" figures were I don't remember playing with them that much.
