Red Five Designs - Kenner Star Wars Toy Guide

[Leemcl]

To my amazement, despite the Cambridgeshire snow the post arrived today along with a heavy box.

With no anticipation as to what was inside I walked to the table and noticed the "Red Five Design" label.

I was overwhelmed to find the book of Dreams inside. I know it's been a long road, but hell this book will do me just fine ! Good job to the guys involved.

Enjoy all those who kickstarted

I haven't received mine yet. Can't wait!

just received mine today as well and looking forward to getting stuck into it. I knew this book would come off in the end (there were definitely some doubters out there), and I just wanted to say a big well done to the team that put this together.

Still waiting for mine, looking forward to it

Mine came Saturday. Its immense in size. I literally have no idea where I'll keep it. Can't wait for volume 2.
For those that are waiting for theirs, I had Royal Mail notification the day before it arrived - tracking then informed it took an entire week to arrive when sent as 48hr delivery due to all the industrial action. So you should all expect yours to arrive any time.

Missed this totally - but just seen Waterstones is offering pre-orders, a little more expensive, but it does look good.

This book is beyond beautiful. For those who missed it they are looking to do another run if there's enough interest, which I'm sure there will be!

Mine came today

It's a monster, but also very impressive.

Not got mine yet but managed to have a quick look through a friends copy last night.
- amazing

Picked up mine yesterday. Even after having a look at it at Echo I'm still gobsmacked how stunning this is! The only issue I have is having to put a traffic bollard on it as it's become a trip hazard…..!?

 

[Mini99]

I got mine yesterday, it will probably take me as long to look through as it did to produce it…

Mine artived a few days ago! Its a huge book with fantasic pictures and a massive amount of information! Kudos to gianni and greg for making this happen and all the people involved in bringing it to life. Well done and worth the wait.

At those prices i cashed my copy in over the weekend for $600, utter madness

I thought they still had copies of it available but I guess I'm wrong if that's what people are now paying.

They're doing a second printing that is nearly at the number they need to make it viable. Patience/intelligence is seemingly lacking in some of our collecting cousins over the pond.

The weird thing is that 3 of the 5 copies sold were sold to the same guy & he was bidding on the other 2 as well! Total nutter if you ask me.
