I've got loads of it stored in my parents loft, unless the buggers have thrown it out without telling me. For certain I've got the original Falcon, original (not battle scarred and didn't have the electronic noises) X-Wing, the Snow speeder with light up blasters, the AT-ST and the personnel transporter I think only made an appearance when they were escaping the planet Hoth in ESB!

 

please let me know if they are for sale?


Cheers

My brother's got pretty much the entire collection of McKenna toys in my parents loft. Half of it was mine which I just gave him years ago. Probably worth a few quid these days!

 

Les,

why wouldn't a B-Wing fly? Remember, it is in space, they are not 'flying' per say as there is no air to move. If it doesn't have to enter an atmosphere it doen't matter if it is brick shaped with no wings (so I believe)

Also in a loft somewhere I have:

Speeder Bike (Return of the Jedi)
C3P0
Darth Vader
Chewie
AT-AT
Scout Walker
Millenium Falcon
Imperial Cruiser

Might be more but those are the ones I remember!

Here's another reason why it's pointless to discuss the flying attributes of Star Wars.....



IT'S NOT REAL

 

Don't say that! how do you know what goes on in a galaxy far far away!?!

 

Lol!!! But quite true.

 

Also, I'm pretty sure their is a void beyond our atmosphere some people like to refer to as 'space'. More of a general point than a Star Wars one really. You see these slick little spacecraft in films etc allt he time, people seem to think they should be nice and aerodynamic when it doesn't matter at all. Just our own stereotypes kicking in.

But which would you prefer in the showroom, the Mercedes Viano or SLK?

 

The early models are worth more than the later ones and becasue of bits missing etc that will dent any cash sale
look around to see if you can find damaged ones to get the parts from maybe, but take to a dealer/auction house to see what prices are like. There should be toys museums around or toy specialists about, maybe email them for prices etc

My nephews had the lot years ago but then my sister gave all the stuff away when she was having a clear out. lol

 

I've got 4-lom with his cloak and gun in as new condition, never wanted to get his cloak dirty I've got loads of the stuff in the loft, mainly figures. I did have the AT-AT in perfect condition until a Hoth battle was re-enacted and it got stuffed full of french bangers.

 

Loving the B wing

 

I can remember kids at school playing with the original stuff in 77 ? is that the right year.

I thought it was rubbish, as unlike lego or mecano, it wa just a plastic solid toy that didn't do anything else !

now I have got a lot of lego and mecano, some it boxed from late 70's early 80's.

I was that kind of intense child !!!!

I know my lego electric train stuff is worth bleedin loads.

 

I had loads. Wish I still had it all now.

I had most, if not all, of the figures, including a few storm troopers to help battle re-enactment I remember the back of the charater boxes had a list of the characters available and going shopping with my mum and always looking at the Star Wars stuff and trying my luck at getting another character!

I had the Millennium Falcon, Darth Vaders Tie-Fighter (the one with the shaped wings), the B-Wing, the Y-Wing, the smaller two-legged version of the AT-AT (can't remember the name), the small forest bike thing from return of the Jedi and the small shuttle craft with the folding wings.

I never bothered with the X-Wing, Tie-Fighter, Troop carrier or the AT-AT because my mate had those so it didn't seem worth doubling up at the time.

I think the only bits I have left that must have missed the boot-sale is Vaders Tie-fighter and I think the two-legged walker thing. Wish I still had the Falcon!

 

I started collecting these when I got my first job, I ended up with loads of top quality figures and vehicles. My prized possession the orininal and complete eight ewoks and a boxed Ewok Village
IIRC I sold my complete Millenium Falcon (with the training ball that often gets lost) for £60, yours looks incomplete and used though so probably wouldn't get half that.
I sold all mine on Ebay five years ago and made almost £700 (I did have a LOT though) The 'last 17' figures are the ones with the value, i've seen some of these go for £60 - £90 each unboxed.

 

I've got a George Lucas Storm Trooper figure.

I think they are reasonably rare.

 

I had loads of Star Wars figures, a Millenium Falcon, an X Wing and an AT-AT. My mother decided whilst was at uni that I had outgrown it all and gave it to my cousin

He still has it all, along with his own collection, and only mentions it occasionally

I also had an absolute mountain of Lego, and a red Chopper

She gave the Lego to next doors kids and scrapped the Chopper


When I was a kid she was always telling me to look after all sorts of useless ****, because 'it will be worth something one day'


I occasionally email her ebay links, just to make her feel guilty
