Repacking/Storing Toys

[delta38ion]

I have a huge Star Wars toy collection! Most have been purchased over the last ten years, although some are vintage, and I have most of the toys' original boxes. Is it possible to disassemble my toys in order to repack them? I have moved to a much smaller home and need to rotate my displays. I would like to repack the toys that are not on display in order to protect them, but because many (the larger ones) had to be assembled I am afraid that disassembling them will permanently damage them. Does anyone have any advice? Thanks!

Hi Welcome to the Forum!

Unfortunately Recarding/Repacking star wars items is frowned upon here unless their modern

I don't really see the problem with putting the toys back in their boxes to be able to store them Liam?

Oh Yeh my mistake I miss read the post Emiel!

I throught he wanted to recard/ rebox to help with storage but putting them back n their original boxes of course there is nothing wrong with that

My apologyies to the OP.

:lol:

delta38ion do you have any pictures of the toys you're talking about? We mainly know about vintage SW here and the only vintage SW toy I know about that's hard to put back in is the Imperial Shuttle (because of the top wing).

Thanks everyone for the feedback. I will make some pictures this week and maybe you will have some advice. We have the huge Millennium Falcon that came out a couple of years ago and then a lot of the SW Clone Wars toys. Our vintage SW stuff came to us minus boxes so I just wrap those very carefully before storing. Many of the items had to be assembled and have those funny pop sockets - my concern is that I will break them completely if I try to take them apart to repack. But yeah, I have the original boxes for them to go back into. No worries and I understand the concerns - i would never recard or rebox anything that wasn't original - that's kind of like plagiarizing - so wrong. I'll get photos on within the week. Thanks again!
