Beautifully restored! I took a lot of care with my toys but always managed to break them anyway, luckily my dad was a dab hand with repairs!

Priceless :)
When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

Still got a handful to do, gotta say I'm enjoying getting to play with it all again.
A lot of these were in a really grubby state.... not broken... just dirty from being played with in the garden, greasy finger marks or sticky patches (I must of been drinking orange juice when play with the Falcon), so I've been cleaning and conserving everything before taking these picture. In a couple of cases I've literally striped some things down to their component parts... the Snow Speeder had dried up 30 year old blades of grass inside it :-D
I still have the poster from Toy & Hobby's Wigan store with the AT-AT dio pic
Spock, where the hell's the power you promised?

Cheers Jim, good ol' dads eh :-)

Hi Mark, the back drops are large (A1 size) sheets of coloured paper or card, I got the idea from Jims tip of using white paper for the toy archive shots (cheers boss :thumbsup: ) with white tissue paper for ice/snow.. all very simple stuff.

You are powerless to resist.. I'll tempt you into collecting something other than Joes one day Rene ;-)
Well, if they ever considered doing a remake of these old figures but with O-ring Joe-style articulation then I would buy it all in a heartbeat but it would have to be in the exact same style/size as these original ones.

Nope, those are like the new style joes which I really dislike, I want the classic o-ring with ribbet elbows and classic style faces etc :)
