Here's one for people, did you know that the smugglers hatch actually fits onto catches under the part of the roof that can be removed

Now's that's something I didn't know. Still learning new stuff after all these years!


It is a fantastic part of this hobby that even after nearly 40 yrs, there are still things to be learnt!!

...and this my friends is why you must listen to The Vintage Rebellion Podcast (although when this was covered it was called the SWFUK Podcast).
I think it was either episode 11 or 12.
We talk vintage and lots of it :D

Knew both the Solo holster and FX-7 mid-section movement - although do also remember it was quite stiff and didn't rotate anywhere near as easily as the one featured in the TV spot...

I only found out here recently-ish that the Ugnaught blue/purple aprons weren't variants but just colour degradation.

Isn't the smugglers hatch thing pictured on the box or in the instructions?

I knew that it clicked to the lid but I didn't know that - just checked and it is on the instructions :)

Yeah I know about the Han Hoth blaster going in the holster, mine are on display like that now. Only found out about it a few years ago as an adult collector though, didn't know about it as a kid and I did have Hoth Luke and Han as a kid.

It's the name of the sculpter's daughter so I heard. Not sure what the name is or where it's supposed to be, but it's on there somewhere.

I knew about Hans blaster from reading about it on RS and the sculpters name in Dagobah is very cool. Only recently found out about the Tattoo on Jabbas arm and this one as well.

Who else knew the PD 's legs popped up when you give him a gentle tap, crazy.

I'm dead disappointed with the PD pop-up thing now :cry: That would have been brilliant! :p


The Falcon hatch storage is amazing though. Never heard of that before

Yeah that Falcon storage thing is mind blowing.
