There used to be a cracking shop in Cardiff called the 80's toy shop. He did pretty much every toy you could remember and a few bmx's too

Just looked and his domain has expired. Going of the lack of action on his ebay and twitter pages in the last year he must have closed $:-\$

On a brighter note i think there is an almost complete milenium falcon along with a rebel transporter ship and a few other bits in the cellar bit at failsworth antiques mill

I collected loads in the late 80s early 90s when you could still get MOC 12 backs for less than £20. I had nigh on all the carded star wars and esb figures and loads of vehicles. Had a mint palitoy deaths. Sold the lot in the mid 90s before ebay when i needed money to pay the mortgage. If id kept it all till now i could have paid it off

Carded figures take me right back to being a kidda and going to the toy shop on Diss high street with my pennys to buy one

My kids played with it just like I did

My cousin had a load of stuff... until his parents moved house and dumped it in a skip

I've got a great Story of Star Wars 7" ... Vader sounds like he's from Barnsley and when Luke gets the droids he says "come on you two... I'll clean you up in the shed"...

Luke had a SHED! gonna drop a resto on the droids! perhaps 3PO was dipping in the Oxalic acid!

All I have is #2 comic, 12" Storm Trooper, 12" Vader, 12" Leia and the Imperial Troop Transporter. Love all things Star Wars but never got into the collecting side of it.

Not bad for two week of Collecting.

Totally agree Rob, toys are for playing with!

Having said that though there's some lovely collections there!
