-
- TV & Film
The best thing that ever happened, is about to happen again! Welcome to the second in our trilogy of Those Old Fossils specials, where we celebrate Palitoy and the Star Wars products they released between 1980 and 1982. Dan is back! Pete is back! Craig is back! And guest hosts Jon Aves and Dave Tree are back! As we move into the early eighties and the era of The Empire Strikes Back. Dave opens, with an overview of what was happening behind the scenes at Palitoy in 1980, then gives us an breakdown of Palitoy’s Boba Fett mail away offer, as well as an insight into the psychology used by toy makers with these kinds of offers. Then the team works their way through the Star Wars toys Palitoy released between 80 and 82. Jon discusses the trials and tribulations of collecting 30, 41 and 45 backs, and Dave shares his passion for Palitoy’s Bounty Hunter Offer. Craig drops in again to tell us about the Palitoy items that went beyond the toys and covers the advertising and point-of-sale materials the company continued to deploy to sell us those wonderful toys. As well as the items Palitoy released, we also cover the Kenner toys that didn’t make it to the U.K. Along the way the hosts all share memories of the toys from their youth and as adult collectors. It’s wall to wall Palitoy talk, and we would be honoured if you would join us.
