Ah yes, Shania Twain! Even her museum has since closed down.

The "in jokes" were brilliant. Depositing the coins into the phone inspired!

It was a collaborative work between Dave and I with a lot of back and forth, but the end result was worth it, I think.

 OkAY... this is a LOT funnier seeing it complete with pictures!

(Nice reference to Encounter at Far Point!)

Well done to both of you! 

That was awesome! The black and white parts really made me chuckle! will they manage to board the falcon? I guess we'll find out next time!

No-one said anything about boarding the Falcon. They are chasing the Millennium Chicken.

The Star Patrol has few rules and anyone with space - sci-fi related figures may post here...as long as it's related to space sci-fi.

@ "Mars Bar" ====

did you run out and buy those candy bars just to take that pic?

Great photos all!

"Where's my Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator! There should have been an Earth-shattering kaboom....!" 

Brilliant work guys, and who doesn't love Marvin the martian?

Thanks Dal. I've been waiting for months to use Marvin in a photo.

You kept Marvin but let his rocketship go?

This is a more recent acquisition.

THE LAST STARFIGHTER








Wanted to show off my latest charity shop find. It's a 1/6 (?) miniature arcade game that actually works! It has six different games (tennis etc.) and the joystick and buttons all function just as the full sized ones do. The screen is coloured and the characters move about with "arcade" type sounds.
Not bad for $5.00?

Great photo, Barry! For $5.00, that was a complete steal.

Thanks Gary! Yes, I couldn't believe my luck, specially when I put batteries in it and the damn thing WORKED!
And then thought I could maybe use it in your thread about Star Patrol recruitment.

Nice recreation of the movie scene! Good find put to good use!
