Starwars has always been part of my life, well I was 3 when it came out.I had all the vintage, the wallpaper the sheets and pillow cases(still have them). I remember getting two deathstar playsets which I would have wars between the good guys and the bad guys.My best friend had the Cantina and the Hoth playsets which we would make battles and kick the tar out of the battle star galatica's figs and trek figs.I had so much and I really cant tell you what I did with it all, I remember giving my nephew a few boxes full of GI Joes so I imagine that is where the intact starwars figs and playsets also ended up.
I went through all the toy groups over the years, Transformers,G I Joes(Had Everything for the first couple years), LJN WWF Wrestlers(All of them),Secret Wars Marvel , MOTU (Had Everything for the first 4 yrs) M.U.S.C.L.E Men I Skipped the TMNT for some reason.
Now I have a stormtroopers helmet tattoo'd on the inside of my right forearm which is done in a chrome style.
In 95 I bought a few of the steriod figures and had them stored away for a rainy day, then I moved from Toronto to Vancouver with my wife and happened to stumble into a comic shop one day, I saw Lak Sivrack on the shelf and just had to have him( I really dig werewolves) from then on I was hooked again.
