Watch it, Touch It, Play With it
Something I’ve always loved from Funko and sadly I don’t actually have one in my own collection is their earth day figures which come in a nice brown recycled box and they give facts about earth day, how much recycled material has gone in to the figure etc. They’re just a really nice feel good […]

Peter Mayhew is probably most well known as the actor who played Chewbacca the Wookie in Star Wars from 1977 right through to the Force Awakens in 2015. Whilst not originally an actor by trade it was his height (caused by Marfan syndrome) of 7 feet, 3 inches which nabbed him the job. George Lucas […]

Kenny, or Kenneth Baker, was a British actor, as a fair number of actor from the original trilogy were, who is by far best know for playing everyone’s favourite droid (sorry C3PO), R2-D2… Come on, he was by far the cheekiest of the 2 and definitely deserves that title. But he didn’t just play this […]

I’m hoping that I’ve got everything in pretty much the right order – it has been a little tricky because there are of course some things which over-lap slightly and then also bits where there might be flashbacks in a film or series which relate to something else entirely. Without giving a full breakdown to […]

The only place I can find these products listed at the moment is the link which Funko gave on their social media which is a link to the GameStop product… Annoyingly GameStop don’t think that British people should be allowed to see their website and as such block access so I can’t really give much […]
