When Star Wars landed in the theaters, it introduced audiences to a galaxy filled with heroes and villains, robots and space ships, and a dizzying variety of alien life. But when the lights came up, they all disappeared... Unless you had all the toys. In which case, the adventure never had to end. Like no toys before them, Star Wars toys were a phenomenon that swept the nation, permanently transforming both the toy and movie industries, and ultimately creating a hobby that, 30 years later, still holds sway over its fans.?Plastic Galaxy is a documentary that explores the groundbreaking and breathtaking world of Star Wars toys. Through interviews with former Kenner employees, experts and authors like Stephen Sansweet and Gus Lopez, and of course collectors, it looks at the toys’ history, their influence, and the fond and fervent feelings they elicit today.

Einkunnir og umsagnir

Unless you are totally unfamiliar with the collecting of Star Wars toys, this documentary is a waste of time. If you're hoping for some new insight into the infamous yellow lightsaber or any other enduring mysteries of Kenner's toy line, you've come to the wrong place. Basic information, presented in a basic manner.

was great im not a huge star wars figure collector im a walking dead figure collector and it was neat and cool to see where my hobby actually started

I still can't get enough of these toys. I love to buy, sell and collect them. Great documentary on the best toys in the galaxy.
