THOSE OLD FOSSILS : EPISODE 22 : PICKING UP THE PIECES

STAR WARS : GENERATION SKYWALKER

Those Old Fossils Episode 22 Vintage Star Wars collecting podcast is now live. Picking up the Pieces!

Massive thanks to Lee Bullock and Mark Daniels for joining Jez, Dan and Peter with hosting duties for this episode. It was wonderful to have these seasoned collectors enrich our discussion. Along with talking about their top purchases over the last 6 months the lads discuss the state of the vintage collecting market in 2024, including tales of how the most recent Echo Live and Farthest From events worked out for everyone.

Dan gives his analysis of Star Wars Tracker provided loose figure prices over the years and discovers some interesting climbers and fallers. Can you guess what they are?

In addition to the hosting team of 5, the lads are also joined by 5 guests, first of all Clint Garniss and Mike Freeman join Jez to talk all about their exciting ‘May the North be with You’ Canadian collecting convention, which sounds absolutely brilliant. Jared Cope, creator and owner of the much talked about Star Wars Tracker pops in to explain all about this fantastic platform which is so much more than just a brilliant price guide. Finally, Nick and Olly Dykes drop on by to talk all about their exciting new venture ‘Oberon Auctions’ which has its first vintage toy collecting auction this week with some outstanding pieces including carded Power of the Force Yak Face and Anakin, plus a sweet 30 back Palitoy Luke X Wing. For their first auction they have some absolutely awesome examples.

Thanks to everyone for the prompts to get another one out! We all hugely appreciate the support and encouragement. This has been our first ‘round table collecting show’ since Craig Spivey passed away. Master Luke Skywalker was right though, no one is ever truly gone….
