    Red Five Designs - Kenner Star Wars Toy Guide

    To my amazement, despite the Cambridgeshire snow the post arrived today along with a heavy box. With no anticipation as to what was inside I walked to the table and noticed the “Red Five Design” label. I was overwhelmed to find the book of Dreams inside. I know it’s been a long road...

    UKG What's going on

    Pretty much bang on. Strikes me as a little unprofessional- although of course in this ridiculous times one needs to have a bit of awareness of circumstances. Just a side point. I was always frustrated by UKG upselling and the way VAT was added at the end. Just give me an all in price...

    Important changes to ebay exports into Europe

    What is the point of eBay in 2021 for private sellers. Seems like a massive pain now with prices on the up and delays in payments and if anything goes wrong you get feck all support. I used to use it all the time, but this year it’s been something mostly ignored.

    Childhood Toy shop

    Superb stuff mate. Thanks for sharing - I’ve had quite a find in the last couple of weeks, although it’s involved eBay and not GW Hurley. In 83 on a Saturday morning I went to House of Holland in Chingford, London with my folks and got a Chief Chirpa figure. I remember it so very...

    After 40 years it's finally finished!

    Chuffed for you mate. I managed to complete my Return of the Jedi Album Album a few years ago, but only needed a couple. For me the big one was my Disney Black Cauldron Panini. I got that in 85. My grand parents let me have their penny jar and I got an album and some packets of stickers...

    Childhood Toy shop

    Oh my f**king days ! Lol. Just about 3 weeks ago I was researching that very shop in Burnham! We lived near there for a few years and My brother and I would go there for toys and books between 1984 & 86. I remember it both well and vaguely, does that make any sense ? My brother used to...

    Restoration Advice - 1980 Yoda Hand Puppet

    Many thanks mate. I’m obviously a little sad that the deterioration of Yoda might be terminal. I suspected the worst with it as I tried to clean with gentle soap and water and then a wet wipe... In the end I guess all vintage will perish, I’ve noticed that overall seems less and less clear...

    Restoration Advice - 1980 Yoda Hand Puppet

    Hope all are doing well this week. I’ve had this guy since 1980 and he’s been on display but as you can see he’s looking a little dirty. Also his base has been sticking to my metal display shelves. My plan today was to give him a clean with some wet wipes and see if this improved him...

    Interesting eBay item - PBP

    Saw this for sale on eBay. Shame it’s not a full Cardback but the seller has uploaded a few of these and a class photo of a display stand from the 80’s - worth a look Search eBay item #143603407793

    The Retro Collection Continues...

    Did these release in the U.K. as yet ? Just curious as to quality v vintage. The first batch was ok, although not quite vintage standard. The card backs sucked too.

    Yes you guys are right. And ultimately what he does with what he purchased is up to him. After all no one else wanted the item more than him.

    Vectis Sale 30th July now online

    Had a look at the catalogue and lot 4001 is an AFA Lando that I sold on eBay in April, to what looked like a normal private buyer. How very odd.

    Can anyone advise what the UK release date is ? I’ve had on pre order for a long while now and I think they were due out in June but finding the correct information is hard. Will they be generally available ( lol - as if anything is “generally” available these days ) Also I have been trying...

    New retroline.......

    Has anyone received these as yet ? I have an order with Star Action Figures, but it’s looking like they have kicked them back from a May delivery to a July delivery - which is quite frustrating.
