I am celebrating SW day, sitting in my home office with all my SW memorabilia, tv on in the background with Episode 4 running. 

May the 4th be with you!!

Do you start with rogue 1?

[Displaced Texan 11,783]

I would have, but I watched Rogue One a few days ago.

 

 

Another gratuitous studio scale SW ship...this time, a Y-wing.

Those are pretty impressive. Did you make or buy them?

Zeke is the Nerf. 

Mrs Zeke is the herder.

I bought the x-wing, but I built the y-wing. They are both made from resin kits. They are the same size as the original studio models used to film the movie. 

They are 1/24 scale, the x-wing is approx 22" long, and the y-wing is about 27" long. 

I am currently building a studio scale x-wing as a gift for a friend of mine. 

I am painting it as Red 6. Have a ways to go before it's finished.

Awesome models!  I still have my original 70's Star Wars toys, all heavily played with so only sentimental value remains. 

Revenge of the 6th

Thanks! 

It amazes me how much $$  some of those old SW toys go for. I have seen some in the thousands of dollars.

I wish I didn't blow mine up with fire crackers. Or take them apart to see how they work.

Do you remember the vouchers for the action figures?

[Displaced Texan 11,783]

I do remember the vouchers. I never had any of the action figures, or the toys. Back in 1977, I was 11, and was a little old to play with SW toys. 

Now that I'm all grown and 50something, I collect SW 'memorabilia'....not toys (that's my story, and I'm sticking to it)! Lol
