Christmas 1982

That was fun watching. Love how we used to rip open those carded figures.

Was my pleasure, will get working on Christmas 1983 when I get a chance, I got a lot more stuff that year, but I don't think any of it was boxed or carded.

So cool. I'm still to discover a single photo let alone a home movie! I didn't know anyone with a camcorder back then!
Excellent stuff, I'd be well chuffed with that mate.

Quality !

I agree with TFB on opening those MOC's, what a sight and I'm sure it's pretty much the way we all did it back then.

Thanks for sharing,

Ian

Brill mate- loved it

I was also opening a MF and figures that morning! we could have had a great game of SW :lol:

Thanks for sharing stick around mate

(If I remember correctly The Black Hole was on ITV that night - The family sat watching it with the lights dimmed. My new MF was sat in front of the TV. and the light from the laser blasts illuminated it - happy days )

I'm sticking around.

I know up all grown up now, but it is kinda upsetting that time has gone by so fast. I remember this like it was yesterday.

That's always made me laugh, me comparing the size of the Falcon and figures to her poxy dolls house, Ijust wanted her to shut up and stop ruining my moment!

This is brilliant - thanks for posting. I think I got a talking R2 that Christmas too.

What a brilliant video, the scene with the falcon was awsome!

 

[sparkysx]

It's like we were actually part of the Star Wars universe getting that cool stuff. I couldn't get my imagination to work like that anymore

I don't think I did as I had to go to Leigh on Sea to see my cousins, took my Falcon box with me though!
