2. Price Guide and Star Wars toy collector resource
The Star Wars Super Collector's Wish Book
by Geoffrey T. Carlton is now in its fifth
edition and is an excellent resource not only
for the latest Star Wars collectible values,
but also as a checklist for ALL of the many
Star Wars toys and action figures that have
been sold through more than 30 years since
the original toy line was launched in 1977.
This book is full of color photos and gives
the collector a great look at variations and
special rare toys as well as the standard
lines by Kenner, Hasbro and other Star
Wars licensees. It's hard to look at this book
and not lament the incomplete nature of
your collection, but it gives you something
to search for as you look to complete your
Star Wars toy collection!
