Great episode as always, awesome interview with Steve III, I'll try and dig out some of teh UK adverts from the 90's to give some comparison on what we were paying for international items (they were cheaper than Kenner for most part).
ReplyDeleteI actually love the Top Toys theory, having no experience or knowledge of that line myself, it has all the ingredients needed for a video statement from The Anonymous ... or whatever the Star Wars equivalent may be ... The Amanamanous
Awesome episode. You are my favorite podcast!
