Vintage Star Wars Toys Hidden in the Movies & TV

[Dublinjeff]

Don't think any one mentioned it, but there was a recent episope of 'Cash Cowboys' on History Channel, two lads went to a guys house with some Vintage bits, Carded figs, etc...I think they bought a 12" Boba Fett off him. Its like 'American Pickers' but set in Canada.... :lol: Will try and find it

I found a lot of pictures from the movie on youtube .

Just in the start there is a white Tie figther in the back and a Slave 1 on the floor . He even has SW bed sheets

2.02 in there are a Falcon in the back , A Yoda and probe bot poster on the wall behind him .
And he sits under the SW sheets

Lots and lots of vintage star wars in the final scenes of Argo. Figures, 12 inch dolls, vehicles, pillow and bed sheets, everything.

This mistake has been made a couple of times but i'll try again. :lol: That is a list of Star Wars references in films. Whereas this list here is a list of Star Wars Toys that appear in films (or TV).

Opening scenes of TED has a Darth Vader carry case full of figures.
Approx. 02:20 into the film.

 

[PGowdy]

Yeah i took note of this when i saw it in the cinema. Been meaning to download it. Nice one Tundra. 8)

 

[tundra9]

The fight scene was hilarious! :lol:

 

[BlueDog]

Surprised this one hasn't been mentioned yet, Weird Al's White and Nerdy music video. Seth Green again, me thinks he likes the vintage.

Top and bottom shelves lots of vintage figures.

 

[PGowdy]

Awesome. Never heard of that before. I've purposely left off Robot Chicken (Seth Greene) from the list mainly because it's a bit redundant. But this is great. 8)

 

[Doomseeker]

The comic shop scene in "Paul" has loads of vintage star wars, C-3po carry case, Tie Fighters, Cloud car...plus loads more!

The weird Al song is cool.

No-one has mentioned the Adam & Joe Show! They used to remake films and game shows with Star Wars figures. Some of them got horrendously mutilated though :? Probably some screen shots out there or vids on Youtube

Love adam & jo, they had a great pod cast from their radio show, do you know if its still running? havent been online with my ipod for yonks now......

and weird al is a genius

 

[x-pack]

I don't know if they are still knocking about. I think Adam is still doing bits of radio and TV. I saw him in something the other week.

On their show i remember they did a spoof called 'Chew've Been Framed' with Chewie as the host. Piss funny. Best one was TFI Friday with ginger haired Han Solo interviewing pissed up OB1 :lol:
