    A year ago, I bought an Ewok village and found an authentic Endor Luke belt in mint condition wedged into one of the trunk hollows. Best $80 I ever spent!

    Great toy and great finds. My favorite of the play sets. Great seeing you restoring this piece of toy History. Can only imagine the adventures this little toy has had.

      Several I’m sure! I like how the elevator goes to the numerous levels, definitely worth restoring. Thanks for watching, part 2 coming soon.

    That rope piece is worth more than the rest of the Deat Star combined.

    I remember getting the Kenner death star for Christmas and loved it. I believe that you can find stickers online to replace yours.

      Yes, just printed some out for Part 2. Thanks

    Great start. Interesting point with the plastic weld on those cracks. You can always use the shavings you filed off the door hinges to fill the cracks elsewhere on the white plastic.

      Ahh, like a filler. I’m gonna do that in part 2, thanks for the tip.

    My Playset is 100% complete accept for some replacement foam. A friend had the trash monster and I bought a ebay parts lot with the rope taped onto the underside of the floor where it attaches. I guess no one else saw it was there. It also had the piece that holds the gun mech down.

    Sun had some kind of shit blocking the light and imprinting that shapes through the shadows that could explaing why it yellowed in that "random wat"

      The pattern is the same as the plastic protruding in the back. I’m sure that has something to do with it although would think there’s instances where your theory can happen.

    I believe the reason why it didn't yellow in those areas is because the plastics was thicker and didn't oxidize as the thinner areas did.

    SCORE! Looks like Bespin Leia’s gun!

    • @toysbackzen
      @toysbackzen  2 месяца назад +1

      I see pictures of the Hoth figure with this gun too but I think you’re right Bespin Leah looks right. I think the first Leah the gun was much darker. Thanks for watching!

      @@toysbackzen First Leia was
      Black. I believe the next wave had the dark green. Then they went with a lighter green that was slightly translucent near the edges. I soooooooo miss my collection…✌️🤘🇨🇦

    Get some Goof off Glue solvent run a Hobby Lnife along the seam.
    Apply Goof Off solvent.
    Use a Putty Knine and gently pry
    Enough to get a rope out
