3:33 My grandma bought me this and I bought it again in1990 for $25 still in the package and I kept it till only a couple years ago when I lost it in a divorce (long story) last time I saw the one I had was worth around $3, 000

Still have all mine, opened, except SLAVE-I, TIE Bomber and the Twin Pod Cloud Csr. I never had these three.

Brings back memories. I had the Xwing, Landspeeder, and Tie Fighter.

[ciscodeer]

I never had those, they look really cool

I loved this toy line. Great for carrying in your pocket to school.

My brother and I had all of these but the tie bomber. I forgot what the boxes looked like, thanks for showing these Junkman, it really brought back memories.

I had the land speeder. I loved it so much. I use to play with it everywhere I went. I didn't get the other ships because I did have to choose either the 3.75 action figure playsets and vehicles or these. And of course I choose my favorite line since they had a lot more play value.

I had the falcon, got it from fedmart in San Bernardino ca

My nephew had two types of land Speeders, one from the first set of Kenner line Star Wars toys. Of course, her being a mom, they were sitting in the garage in boxes. Yes, she threw them out

Nice vid Junkman… ROTJ line could have had Jabba’s sail barge and an Imperial Shuttle too. An AT-AT would have been cool also. I also have a very yellow Tie Bomber from my childhood collection as well as X-wing, Landspeeder, and half of a Tie fighter!

[albertomorales]

Other kids I met had that imperial cruiser

[jonathanmurphy]

I still have several of these. (I’m 54 years, saw originals in cinema.) 😎

[petesolo]

I had the X wing, y wing, Falcon, TIE fighter, Star Destroyer and Slave One. Thanks for doing this video, Junkman. This brings back lots of memories. 😊

My brother and I had all of the ‘78 ones between us - took me back!❤

I had the Star Destroyer and Y-Wing die cast and both were made so well. The other thing I had which noone I ever saw had was the collection of die cast FIGURES. They existed if you ever find them they were rare since most people had the plastic figures not the mini metal ones (I had at least 20ish of them). 4:48 - that is not a missile... the Y Wing dropped a bomb when you pressed down on the R2 unit / button.

Had all these sadly the only one I still have is the Falcon

[mikebell]

I remember the seatbelts in the back of small cars. It was some kind of giant reel sitting on the seat and no one could figure how to make the belt come out. I think you had to pull the whole reel and buckle that.

[BangBang-hkrg]

My cousin had most of these back in the day. They were cool to look at, but we never played with them much.

[billgrindler]

I have Falcon, the Star Destroyer .... Imperial Cruiser and still have the Tatnitive IV ... Blockade Runner and Slave One, all from when I was child.

[TheSickNeeds]

These were more popular than the micro collection around these parts.... and easier to collect too since its so hard to find complete micro collection sets and the characters always look like they were thrown against a but the same can be said about the Xwing from this line.... I don't know if they were just that loved or hated by the kids that had them.
