Edd that's great! I wish my folks took more photos when I was younger. I can't find any of me with Star Wars stuff. Awesome photos dude.

Some cracking pictures in this thread! I'm very jealous, I don't think I've ever seen a picture of me as a kid playing with Vintage. I do remember taking a polaroid picture of my collection when I was about 8 or 9 but that's probably long gone :(

This is a fantastic thread. I'm loving all of the old pictures.

I know of one picture of me as an eight-year-old wearing my beloved rip-off Star Wars T-shirt but it's a slide, not an actual photograph. I'll search through my mother's collection of photos to see if there's anything else Star Wars related.

Fantastic pictures Edd, I love the pictures you found. I still hope I will be that lucky just to find one picture of me with star wars from the old days :D

I love these old photos - a glimpse back in time with kids actually playing and enjoying all the stuff we now collect and covet. :D

I've got one of me on Xmas morn '83 that i'll be posting later in the week but before that, heres a link to a flikr account called Growing Up With Star Wars where loads of people have uploaded their childhood SW photos. Its a great dose of nostalgia and I'm sure anyone can upload to it! :wink:

Enjoy!
