Frequently Asked Questions.

• Who are you and why did you set up this site?

I post on many Star Wars forums under the name cocoFSTAR. I saw Star Wars when I was 5 yrs old and fell in love with the whole mythology, especially the toys, this site is the culmination of my hobby. I live near the town of Lurgan, slap-bang in the middle of Northern Ireland.



• Are all the items on the site from your collection?

Yes, took me forever photographing them all.



• What is a Star Wars Toy variation?

Variations in Star Wars figures & vehicles are a result of inconsistent or modified manufacturing processes used on otherwise largely identical models of toy, the most famous example of which being the Jawa action-figure 'Cloth Cape' and 'Vinyl Cape' versions.



• Who manufactured these Vintage Star Wars toys?

Kenner Toys, based in Cincinatti USA, made the vast majority of the toys on this site. However in many countries these toys were distributed by other toy companies, in differing packaging and, in rarer cases, with differing toy features. These non-US toy companies include:


• Clipper - Netherlands
• Glasslite - Brazil
• GMI - Germany
• Harbert - Italy
• Lili Ledy - Mexico
• Meccano - France
• Palitoy - United Kingdom
• Popy - Japan
• PBP - Spain
• Tol Toys - Australia & NZ
• Top Toys - Argentina

I use these abbreviations in the interest of brevity. Below follows a key of what all this nonsense means;
