Customer Reviews
Plastic Fantastic Pocasting
Having now listened to every episode (to date (May 2018)) and retrospectively taken a trip through the hosts lives along the way, I have to say that Skye and Steve’s work is simply must listen podcasting. If you have any aspiration to learn and understand more about Vintage Star Wars collecting there really is no better place to start.
Episode by episode Skye (who’s trademark is stupidity) and Steve (who is too modest to show his hand at times) take you on a learning journey by showcasing others’ knowledge so you can sit at the back of the class with them, listen in, hear the debate, the often encyclopaedic knowledge and the real history with the myths swept aside and often know as much or more than the host in the process... it’s a great way to learn and have fun at the same time... as well as feeling proud to know something they don’t every so often too!
Best of all is the variety of subjects covered each episode around a central theme/character.
Highly recommended and a pleasure to leave a five star review that truly reflects the work they’ve put in.

Nearly as good as The Vintage Rebellion
Great alternative podcast from across the pond. Some great laughs and interviews and often listen while commuting.
The experts in their respective fields add to content thats very informative.
Keep it up guys and thanks for the effort afforded to each show.

Posting!
I'm confused. When I asked people to leave an iTunes review, only 10 people bothered. We ran a competition for everyone that posted and they won a Blue Snagletooth. I don't know why people don leave a review. Madness. So i will wrte here as requested.
