Star Wars Super Collector’s Wish Book Toys 1977-2022 2nd Edition

Star Wars Toys!

You’d be hard pressed to find any toy collector that is more dedicated, determined, obsessed and excited as a Star Wars toy collector.

Ever since the first 3 1/2” figures came out a few months after the Star Wars: A New Hope film premiered Star Wars toy collectors have clamored, rushed and filled their shopping carts with Star Wars toys.

I have to hand it to author Geoffrey T. Carlton. How he was able to compile so many toys from various companies by date, variants and prices is impressive.

The Schiffer Publishing's Star Wars Super Collector’s Wish Book Toys 1977-2022 2nd Edition contains full color photos of every (and I mean every) Star Wars toy created during that time span.

The hardbound book is a good one inch thick and is by far the most comprehensive guide to Star Wars toys ever compiled.

The sheer amount of time, effort and knowledge to compile such a book boggles my mind.

Readers can spend literally hours looking over its pages. I did. There are toys listed and shown that I’ve never seen before. Amazing!

"Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." — Philippians 4:8
