Even if you're not a Star Wars fan this is interesting for toy collectors generally.
Long time Star wars collector and writer Ron Salvatore has torn apart the Falcon to find all the Star Wars toys that Kenner up- and re- cycled. It looks old and I've no idea when it was written but I liked it a lot.
For instance, did you know that the Kenner Gamorrean Guard became their Friar Tuck? Me neither!
Its a fascinating story, so have a shufty.
I also found Ron's bio page really quite poignant, talking about his Mom and Dad and those gloriously free days of our childhoods. Even though I'm much older and British, it struck a chord, which I imagine is universal.
Have you come across Ron Salvatore before?
