Episode 107 : Mr Tree’s Farthest From Fiesta
It’s that time of year again - the big man’s getting ready for the main event, his team of little helpers preparing lots of toys for girls and boys….. No, not Santa! We’re talking about the one and only Mr Dave Tree, and the upcoming Farthest From vintage collecting event! Dave’s our main interview guest this month, and we take a deep dive into his events, his love for Palitoy, his work with Fantha Tracks, unproduced toys, the 2007 Palitoy Archive exhibit, and so much more. The lads are anticipating that other 'seasonal event' this winter, rounding up the latest and greatest new acquisitions from around the Star Wars galaxy, getting quizzical with Rich, and introducing the great new feature, the Action Vehicles Face-Off! Kicking off a bumper Rebel Briefings section, Rich welcomes Ron Salvatore to discuss the Kenner Sweepstakes promotion. The team go on to chat about events, fakes, books, domes, mini MOCs, a sad passing, and more. Our licensee this month is Acamas, producers of fine (well, maybe not quite so fine) costumes and masks. Did Rich dress up as Princess Leia when he was 9? You’ll have to listen to find out! An extra-long show filled with chat, banter and info on all things vintage, you’ll find the podcast in all the usual places.
