My 12 " Boba Fett from Kenner,and for a newer item,my inateractive R2. My two fave characters from SW. I do like the large figs from Jakks though. When someone said large here,I thought they meant those and thought I'd missed a 31" Boba or somethin',lol! Still pestering Jakks to make one,lol.

Vintage: The Sandcrawler and landspeeder. The early scenes in SW really impressed me as a kid, I loved recreating them with loads of Jawas.
New: I love the large wing TIE and X-wing, for their sleeker design. And my Medicoms, especially Boba Fett, which is just as great as the HT version..

So difficult to choose just one... love so many of the figures, vehicles and playsets. A few of my favourites include the Death Star Space Station playset, the Patrol Dewback and the AT-AT.PUNY HUMANS!Comment

Didn't have many of the vehicles and none of the playsets, but the landspeeder got a lot of use. Used to give my hamster Squeakie rides in it. He seemed to enjoy it.Comment

I don't know if I can pick just one! My first instinct was to pick the Imperial Attack Base, it's definitely my favorite playset and I have so many fond memories of playing with it that Christmas when I got it. The Twin Pod Cloud Car, Imperial Troop Transport, and Droid Factory also rank highly for me. Figure-wise it's probably a toss up between Imperial TIE Fighter Pilot and Bossk.
But I too adore the die-cast vehicles, and as I've gotten older I find myself far more drawn towards those than the action figures and playsets. The only vintage die-cast vehicle I have in my possession anymore is also the Y-Wing! Nowadays if I spend any money on Star Wars toys, old and new, I'm more likely to seek out die-cast vehicles than anything.Comment

For some reason, I always think of getting the Tusken Raider on a 12 back card. It's a really happy memory.Places to find PlaidStallions online: https://linktr.ee/Plaidstallions

Hands down, it's the original Luke Skywalker (Bespin Fatigues). It has served as my good luck charm/ security blanket since I first got it in 1980. It has travelled around the world with me and still looks as good as new. It is currently in a loose figure star case on prominent display among my collection.If I had only spent a tenth of the time studying Physics that I spent learning Star Wars and Baseball trivia, I would have won the Nobel Prize.Comment

I love the original Kenner 3 3/4 figures.
Shall single out Hammerhead, because he was so weird and wonderful.Comment

Without a dought my Dewback that I got for my birthday in 1979. Still have it and he's staring at me as I type this.
My favorite playset would be the Deathstar. I played with it so much that it didn't last for more than several years.
As far as ships my favorite is the highly underrated Snow Speeder. Loved that!Comment

Still love the original 3-3/4" Boba Fett. Probably my favorite SW toy of all time.
If I had to pick a vehicle, I think the Snowspeeder was really underrated. Cool laser lights and sounds. Good visibility of the figures in the cockpit. A grappling hook off the back. Solid playability with that one.Comment
