Welcome to the third instalment in our trilogy of Those Old Fossils Specials, in which we celebrate Palitoy and the Star Wars products they released between 1983 and 1985.

Dan returns! Pete returns ! And guest hosts Jon Aves and Dave Tree return! As we continue to move through the eighties and into the era of The Return of the Jedi. Dave opens with an overview of what was happening behind the scenes at Palitoy in 1983, then gives us a breakdown of Palitoy’s mail away offers that year. Then the team works their way through the Star Wars toys Palitoy released during that period. Pete takes us through the vehicles, creature and play-sets and Jon takes us through the figures and the various card backs.

Dave sets the record straight with the story of the sheet of uncut Trilogo cards he uncovered. And no, they weren’t use to wrap meat!!!

As well as the items Palitoy released, we also look at the Kenner toys that didn’t make it to the U.K. and finish by discussing the end of the Palitoy brand in 1985.

In part 5 of our guide to Palitoy Pete, Dan, Jon and Dave are back for more Palitoy talk, and take a deep dive into some Palitoy related collecting mysteries and scandals. We kick things off digging into the Palitoy Landfill; could there really be buried vintage Star Wars treasure somewhere in Leicestershire? Or is all just a collector’s pipe dream? Then Lee Bullock drops in to lay some science on us as we discuss the legendary, yet still controversial Grey Limbed Hoth Stormtrooper. We then cap things off with an epic discussion on Toy Toni. Almost 12 years on from the scandal first breaking, we take a look back at the reaction then, and how community view Toy Toni’s today. Have the wounds healed? who was to Toni? And just where are the rest of those card-backs? We can’t promised all the answers, but we can promise a lively and insightful discussion.…
