A Long Time Ago ... I became a Star Wars fan. My love for Star Wars was born when my father took me and my brother to see the original movie at the Regent Theatre in my home town, Great Yarmouth, in January 1978. I was 7 years-old. Needless to say, it made quite an impact on me. To celebrate The Force Awakens, I have created a 100-day countdown to its release. Using images from my collection, I will share my favorite memories of 35+ years of being a fan and collector of all things Star Wars.

35 days to go: The Black Series
In terms of supply, quality and collectability, I felt that Hasbro’s core Star Wars action figure range wobbled a bit a few years ago. They were difficult to get hold of, the quality wasn’t great and I felt they'd lost some of their innovation. Then they launched a new 6" action figure range they called 'The Black Series'. I got interested again. Being larger than the traditional action figures, they were able to add much greater detail. They continue to do a great job with them, although they are still very hard to get hold of (which makes the hunt more fun!).
