Welcome to the fourth instalment of our series of Those Old Fossils Specials- Generation Skywalker’s Guide to Palitoy, in which we celebrate Palitoy and the Star Wars products they released between 1978 and 1985. In this, the first of 2 new instalments of the Palitoy guide we move beyond 1985 to discuss the evolution of Palitoy collecting in the U.K. From humble beginnings in the early 1990’s through to the current day, we discuss the events, the individuals, as well as the advancements in technology over the last 40 years that have led us to the hobby we know and love today. Join Dan, Pete, Jon and Dave as we take another trip down memory lane and talk old school toy shows, the rise and fall of the forums, the publications we read, as well as the establishments collectors frequented over the years to get their Palitoy fix. We try to nail down when collectors started to document available card-backs and the range of Star Wars product Palitoy produced. Dave shares what it was like organising the Palitoy Archive exhibition at Celebration Europe in 2007 and the impact it had on Palitoy collecting at the time. And we round the conversation out by talking the current state of Palitoy collecting.…

Join Dan, Jez and Craig for a re-watch and in-depth spoiler-filled review of all eight episodes of Ahsoka. So much more than just a 'live action Rebels season 5', we explore the back story, the characters, this season's arc and all of the implications for Star Wars going forward. Cross referencing Rotten Tomatoes and IMDB ratings with our own social media polls, gives episode some wider context, even if the team doesn't agree on every single detail. It was a thrill to see some of these characters brought to live action for the first time, but who were the hits and misses? Which scenes sizzled? What left us colder than a Dathomiri witch's reanimated body part? And which other long-running franchise did the art direction put Craig in mind of? Listen along and let us know your thoughts.…
