Retro Week: E.T. in a Snow Speeder

I'm in Toronto this week and as usual, that means I'm posting less than usual, but I also have access to my mother's basement full of toys.  So to give you a taste of what's to come, here's an ET mini figure riding in a Star Wars: Empire Strikes Back Snow Speeder.

  2. Fantastic! I love the ET figure. I just devoured that movie when I was younger and every time I eat Reeces Peices it makes me think of it, lol. :) Have fun going through your stuff! Post more 80s stuff if you can! :)

    Sorry but I couldn't help humming the StarWars theme while reading your post. Episodes 4, 5 and 6 were and will remain my favourite StarWars episodes.
    I can't wait to see what you will show us next.
    Keep having fun JSarie!

  7. Hope you are enjoying Easter with your mother JS and not spending all your time in the basement . . . as tempting as it may be. :) These two certainly evoked a few memories, ET won't have any troubles gettng home now.

  8. Oh my gosh, I didn't know there were ET figures! I think hubby has one of those. I never know. The "Star Wars" room is full of merchandise from when he was a kid as well.

    Enjoy Toronto!

    1. There was a whole line of ET figures - I only had a couple of them, but those couple are still around so they'll be showing up later this week. :)
