Welcome to the fourth instalment of our series of Those Old Fossils Specials- Generation Skywalker’s Guide to Palitoy, in which we celebrate Palitoy and the Star Wars products they released between 1978 and 1985.
In this, the first of 2 new instalments of the Palitoy guide we move beyond 1985 to discuss the evolution of Palitoy collecting in the U.K.
From humble beginnings in the early 1990’s through to the current day, we discuss the events, the individuals, as well as the advancements in technology over the last 40 years that have led us to the hobby we know and love today.
Join Dan, Pete, Jon and Dave as we take another trip down memory lane and talk old school toy shows, the rise and fall of the forums, the publications we read, as well as the establishments collectors frequented over the years to get their Palitoy fix. We try to nail down when collectors started to document available card-backs and the range of Star Wars product Palitoy produced.
Dave shares what it was like organising the Palitoy Archive exhibition at Celebration Europe in 2007 and the impact it had on Palitoy collecting at the time. And we round the conversation out by talking the current state of Palitoy collecting.
