Designer & photographer Brian Hickey comes on the program to talk about his new Kickstarter campaign.

Total Star Wars Toys: The Palitoy Saga, is a book that takes an in-depth look at Palitoy’s role in the Star Wars toys phenomenon between 1977 and 1985.

There’s interviews with key figures at Palitoy, such as Bob Brechin Roger Morrison, and many more, including Jim Swearingen from Kenner. You are going to find out a lot of untold stories, see lots of pictures and get some of Brian’s own amazing toy photography. It’s the story from initial concepts to marketing campaigns, to variant toys that we didn’t see here in the U.S.

"Total Star Wars Toys" delves deep into the Palitoy story, revealing the challenges, triumphs, and behind-the-scenes details that made these toys so iconic.

When not creating books, Brian designs award winning exhibitions for museums and visitor experiences in Ireland's tourism and heritage sector.

A Star Wars insert podcast series that asks more questions than it answers -once again between Star Wars shows. Today on Hot Stove Breakfast pack #98- We are asking questions on the Andor Season 2 trailer, and a lot of other Star Wars news and notes that happened this week. So back on temporary loan from The Long Take Oscar marathon podcast party, is my co-host and card squadron winger Gregory Cass from eyeoncanon.com.

So if you are joining us for the first time, the Breakfast Pack, and all their iterations are insert podcasts in the regular feed where Greg and I, along with occasional guests, will trade questions on the latest episodes of Star Wars TV. Much like the title implies, Hot Stove shows fall in-between, and make more sense during the baseball offseason. And if you can make heads or tails our of that description, please email me at greg@rebelbasecard.com

Find Greg on Instagram and Hive @eyeoncanon and at eyeoncanon.com
