In this month's Those Old Fossils, Palitoy Pete, Martin, and Dan turn their attention to one of Kenner's most iconic vintage Star Wars releases — the Jabba the Hutt Playset. The team also takes a closer look at Bib Fortuna, Jabba's loyal Twi'lek majordomo, exploring the character's role in Star Wars and the story behind his classic Kenner figure. Jez drops in throughout the show to share his thoughts on both items, while Ron Salvatore delivers an impassioned deep dive into Jabba, discussing every aspect of the playset — from original concepts and prototypes to the question: is Jabba the Hutt actually an action figure? This sparks a lively debate amongst the team. Mark Andrews joins Dan to share his passion for Bib Fortuna and also reveals that Frank's Mews Baggie Guide has found a new home on the Variant Villains website — and is better than ever. From one of Kenner's greatest playsets to one of Jabba's most recognisable allies, this episode is packed with collecting stories, expert insights, in our continuing celebration of the vintage Star Wars collecting hobby.

Johnny's focus spans five distinct vintage figure runs, anchored by a truly most impressive centrepiece: an extensive lineup of carded Darth Vader figures, alongside a dazzling array of Vader-related items from beyond the toy aisle. Johnny takes us back to his earliest Star Wars memories as a child in the early 1980s — from seeing a double bill of Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back with his nan and two bumper Christmases in '82 and '83 packed with Star Wars toys.

Will he reveal his latest swag for the upcoming Echo Base Live in March? And why is there a yo-yo in the show art?

In this episode of Five Idiots Talking Toys, the crew dives into one of the most controversial topics in the action figure community: Is opening a sealed, vintage toy an unforgivable sin?The debate is fierce! We discuss the collector who compared opening a Mint on Card (MOC) figure to "poaching ivory," and we go around the table to see how each idiot feels about breaking the seal on classics like Vintage Star Wars figures, including the dilemma of busted blisters, rare Tri-Logo cards, and the famous Last 17 figures. Plus, we explore how different communities like LJN Wrestling collectors handle the "open or sealed" question and the complicated process of restoring figures (bleaching and yellowing plastic!).Join the discussion!

Is the new MrBeast Lab Mutators toy actually just a box of trash? This week, the guys are fired up about excessive toy packaging! It's not about the toy itself; it's the giant pile of plastic and cardboard garbage left on your floor after a 5-minute unboxing. In today's episode of Fivie Idiots Talking Toys, we talk about the new Mutation Chamber and break down the shocking amount of single-use plastic required to get to the action figure. While the figure itself might be cool, we have to ask: Is the "experience" worth the landfill waste? Let's discuss the problem with modern toy packaging gimmicks. We talk about the biggest offenders, from modern surprise toys like LOL Dolls and #mrbeast Lab Mutators to the gigantic boxes for Marvel Legends and DC Multiverse action figures.

Tyler is a fellow Empire State Star Wars Collectors Club member whose passion for the toys has led him on a path to create his own wildly unique and colorful custom 3.75” astromech droids. In an era of sterile, museum-quality displays, Tyler's collection room is dynamic, beautifully curated, and filled with exciting collecting stories. Join host David Quinn for a conversation with Tyler, as Tyler shares the stories behind his Kenner toys, the impact of Star Wars and the action figure line, and what his collection means to him. Tyler also shares inventive tips for displaying figures and boxes, in ways you've never imagined but will want to apply to your collection room! Thank you for being a part of Season Four.
