How old were you when you first saw Star Wars? I was 8 or 9 back in 1977, and it changed my life. I remember I got the "Deathstar" for christmas that year, although my mom got the lamest action figures to play with it, but that DeathStar was the most fun I can remember as a child.
I never got a Darth Vader, I never got any Stormtroopers, no droids. My mom sucked at picking action figures. She bought me and my brother lightsabers, and of course mine was green and my brother got the cool Darth Vader, red one.
Then, she got us the robot from "Lost in Space". Yeah, WTF? Don't bank on moms knowing popular robots. No C-3p0, no R2-D2, but "Danger Will Robinson!" And to make matters worse, it worked for about 15 minutes and the crapped out. It layed under my bed for the longest time. What a POS toy.
Anyway.....
