For children of the 1970s and 80s, the Sears Wish Book was the portal to the latest exciting Kenner Star Wars toy releases.

Georgia collector Jerry Hancock, known in collector groups as Ki-Adi Randy, is an expert on the history of Sears, as well as the retail company’s relationship to the Star Wars franchise.  

And during the May 4th weekend, Jerry shared that history with more than 150 passionate Star Wars collectors at the Rogue Fun collectors weekend in Kennesaw, Georgia.  

He kicked off the panel portion of the main event with an incredible presentation titled: “Santa Shopped There; Star Wars and the Golden Age of the Sears Wish Book.”

Join host David Quinn for a new five-week series that focuses on the fascinating presentations from the Rogue Fun event and brings the full panels to you!

This is the impact of an annual Wish Book on a generation of fans.  And this is Star Wars: Prototypes and Production!

For more than a decade, ToyCon NJ has been one of the best tri-state toy shows for Star Wars fans and for general collectors.

Travel to the Armory in Morristown, New Jersey for the latest ToyCon NJ event on Saturday.  And then head south to Delaware on Sunday, for a quick tour of the April Fools Toy Show.

219. Kicking Off A New Toy Show Season With A Double Toy Show Weekend: ToyCon NJ And Delaware!

You may be familiar with how Rogue One ends.  But do you know how ANDOR began?

The critically acclaimed Star Wars series almost didn’t happen.  

The goal of ANDOR was to detail Cassian Andor’s journey from a child of war to a self-focused mercenary to a selfless hero of the early rebellion.  

And like the rebels taking down the Death Star, the story behind bringing this one-in-a-million drama to the small screen is just as wild, and just as compelling.  

Join host David Quinn as he explores the making of the monumental first season, and how showrunner Tony Gilroy transformed it into one of the greatest Star Wars stories ever told.   

This is, in the words of Gilroy, “always protein, never icing.”  And this is Star Wars: Prototypes and Production!

*This episode focuses on the events leading up to the series’ release in 2022, and does not contain any spoilers from seasons one and two.

223. The SECRET That Shook The Galaxy: The Unbelievable Story Behind The Empire Strikes Back’s Twist

Getting stuck in a toilet, starting an office fire, and firing blow darts into plastic dolls? Just an average day at Kenner.

These are just some of the ridiculously funny and fascinating stories from the final Star Wars-themed panel of the Rogue Fun collectors weekend, held during the 2024 May fourth weekend in Kennesaw, Georgia.

Join host David Quinn for a look back at one of the funniest and most enlightening presentations about the world of Star Wars Kenner toys, and the decades-long bond that formed between the two former colleagues who created them!  

This is how the toys we love were made.  And this is Star Wars: Prototypes and Production!

225. John Celestri: The Animator Who Brought BOBA FETT To Life In The 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special

The main event is finally here.  And it’s the pinnacle of one of the greatest Star Wars collectors weekends ever.

In May of 2024, 200 collectors traveled to Kennesaw, Georgia for Rogue Fun, a multi-day Star Wars trip centering on collecting and connecting.

And on Saturday, May the Fourth, the Georgia Alliance hosted a 7-hour ballroom event, featuring dinner, room sales and five incredible Star Wars-themed panel presentations.  

The panels covered the history of Star Wars and the Sears holiday catalogs, two legendary action figure customizers, the artist who introduced Boba Fett to the world in 1978, and Steve Sansweet and the authors of two of the most iconic books about collectibles. 

And the presentations ended with a wildly funny and insightful chat with two former Kenner creatives who worked on the Kenner line and helped design some of the most beloved Star Wars figures and playsets.

The evening concluded with every collector’s dream: an epic room sales event in the ballroom.  From Kenner to Hasbro, and from prototypes and production pieces, the event had enough Star Wars items for sale to fill an entire store!

Join host David Quinn for an in-depth look at day three of the memorable Rogue Fun weekend.  

Featuring live moments and stories from Star Wars fans and collectors Rich Alot, Howard Bollinger, Lewis Brown, John Celestri, Tim Effler, Matt Fox, Jerry Hancock, Josie Harmon, Paul Harrison, Don Henderson, Erik Janniche, Bruce Lieberman, Jonathan McElwain, Doug Meyer, Maggie Moore, Shawn Moynihan, Narayan S. Naik, Steven J. Sansweet, Barry Scott, Ryan Shaw, Jason Smith, Tim Theall, Mike Tricomi, Vinny Tricomi, Jason Wasulko, Shannon Wasulko, Gary Ray Weaver, Glen Williams and many more!

This is the magic of the Star Wars collecting community at its peak.  And this is Star Wars: Prototypes and Production!

227. The Maryland Toy Expo: A Summer Kickoff For Star Wars And Toy Shows In Timonium! (Part 1)

For Star Wars fans and toy collectors, a day at The Maryland Toy Expo is a fantastic way to kick off the summer season.

On June 14th, thousands of attendees traveled to the town of Timonium from various surrounding states, in the hopes of finding a special item from the Star Wars universe and from many other toy lines.  

And the Expo had plenty of them.  For Star Wars fans, the one-day show offered more than 300 vendor tables packed with carded and loose figures, prototypes, boxed vehicles and playsets, international items, and other desirable Star Wars rarities.  

Join host David Quinn for part two of The Maryland Toy Expo experience, for Saturday’s main event.

This is a stellar way to spend a Saturday, in the company of friends and collectors.  And this is Star Wars: Prototypes and Production!
