It's a good day out Dave. As it's in a shopping centre you have the die hard star wars fan as well as casual visitors out shopping 😎 Yeah, the Star Wars tax is evident, but the event is free to enter and photos/autographs are very reasonably priced compared to comic cons.

Awesome tour of the show, Dave! That new Star Wars Collection book looks gigantic. Very nice. Nice Palitoy book also. Lots of expensive older items at the show too. Nice MASK, DinoRiders and Star Wars collectibles obtained. Thanks!

I had a LOT of this stuff as a kid. Funny but I just realized for the first time in 40 years, the playsets with the cardboard backdrops are exactly like the matte paintings used to film the movies.

The Kenner/Palitoy figures always have a soft spot for me given my age (40s) and it's amazing to see the price of some of them, even loose I saw prices in the hundreds and for boxed thousands!

Luke, you would have loved this one. Just to walk around and see all the vintage items - pretty much everything related to the vintage line was there. Prices can be crazy though. Met lots of people too, and Bob was incredible. I didn't expect him to provide a guided walkthrough of his book, I had cheekily asked to video a couple of the pages!! He's so proud of Palitoy. Message received 👍

Nice purchases mate! Was lovely getting to see everything! But by christ! The prices were awful at this event. I came away with a couple of £100 items despite having turned up with 3k I'd saved, all of which I was eager to spend. Spent the rest on Ebay that night when I got back to my hotel. Used to be the prices were good at these events. Not now. Most of what I bought on Ebay was near half the price or less - than the eye watering prices I'd seen at this. I thought the echo people were all about keeping pricing down to fair & decent levels too..Seems thes events are now sadly to big, with pricing to match.

@VintageToyRush

I have to admit, I have a hard time with vintage Star Wars pricing these days. It seems all over the place. There were definitely highly priced items but also some decent prices too. Not sure Echo really have much say on the prices - I do think some items are priced not to sell 😎 It's still a great event for meeting fellow collectors though and good day out. At least you found some items 👍

When I was on fb I used to be in their group as a buyer to finish my collection. When I was buying, there was a rule of no scalping and passing on savings to the members. It seems ridiculously overpriced compared to the toy fairs I go to. I stopped buying SW stuff around 2019 as prices went over the top. My last purchases were black R2 units to go into my droid collection, they cost £20 but were the finale to my my SW collecting.

@VintageToyRush

Hi Dave, thanks for getting back about the music but maybe I should have been a little more specific and saved you all that hassle of listing them all but the piece I was really interested is the music @1:00 onwards, is that in your list because I couldn't find it?

Hey Jeff - possibly, I've never looked at one to be honest. I assume it has a circuit board in there (being 90s?) which could be broken. Or it could just be a simpler wiring issue. All depends :)

After 10am, it's free. The event is held in a shopping centre!! so only have to pay for parking - for me, that was £3 for most of the day. There's an early bird you can pay for which I think gives you 45 mins before everyone else. You can find loose there in all conditions 👍

it really depends on condition, demand and rarity of the card /figure - so you can pay from, say £50 all the way up to 10s of thousands of pounds. I'd say the majority of them are in £100 - £400 mark 👍
