Awesome list with great information and **actually interesting** perspectives!

I'm 48 and had all of these, thank you for making this video, almost brought tears to my eyes seeing my long ago childhood on the screen.

One of my fondest memories growing up was my neighbour and me getting a snow speeder and AT AT on Christmas morning and re enacting the battle of Hoth in our snow covered gardens using all of our toys. We barely noticed how cold it was because we were having so much fun. Great times. Great video

I remember my older brother getting the AT-AT for Christmas back in the day and even as a small child I remember being aghast at how accurate it was to the film. The star wars vehicles had almost the same attention to details as airfix model kits and that's what made them so appealing to me, it was like have a playable movie prop in your bedroom. It was an amazing time to be a child.

As a father of two boys, it was my job to install all the stickers on each SW machine that arrived at our home. Each surface cleaned, dried then sticker applied and gently rubbed down and then submitted for final approval of the lads. Many hours of fun for the boys and dad. No lasting side effects says he sitting here on May the Fourth wearing a SW Droids T-shirt. Excellent Countdown, keep up the good work, from a Analog man of 69 summers. :o) BTW the stickers are still in place, never kept the boxes Dooohhhhh!

The Snow speeder was the only ship I had as a child, it was such a good toy. I had many hours playing with it.

The JCPenny exclusive remote control Sand Crawler should have made the list. It had immense play value with the compartments, elevator and remote control movement, not to mention the rarity of owning one. The Shuttle Tydirium was awesome because of the size. Great list and thanks for posting.

Even now at 48 years old, I look at the figures and vehicles and realise what things of beauty they are - the attention to detail and build quality have never been bettered. When I was a child in the 80’s, growing up with Star Wars, we didn’t have much money so the biggest and best vehicle I ever had was the AT-ST, which I loved. I have just started the journey of collecting the entire vintage action figure range. Once finished, I may pick up some of the vehicles too - first three on my never-had-before list would be AT-AT, Slave-1 and Darth Vader Tie Fighter…….ahhhhh…….good times ahead!

Awww I like the Cloud-Car! It's got a very Mcquarrie feel to it.

A good list, but I was hoping that the Imperial shuttle 'Tyderium' would appear in it.

The B-Wing was my favorite. It was so cool. The speeder bike was #2 for me. Like you said, they really knew what they were doing by the time RotJ came along.

I sold a boatload of toys on this list on eBay 2 years ago (including a mint condition Y-Wing Fighter) that were in pristine condition from my childhood that had been on storage for 35 years. I was surprised how little monetary value they fetched and there were plenty of others for sale as well. I think the newer Star Wars movies might have diminished the value of the brand and leaving only merchants wanting them. I sold an original X-Wing from 1977 and a week later it was for sale at a higher price by the guy who'd won it who turned out to be a toy dealer and had a larger audience than I. I still have a bunch of Star Wars toys left, but the sadness of parting with these iconic and my favorite childhood toys wasn't worth the low value that I received for them. I always thought 40 years later these toys would be worth thousands, but again, there were tons of them on eBay and very cheap.

I only had the LandSpeeder as a kid, but I loved it!

My best AND most iconic: 3- Twin Pod Cloud Car, Xmas season 1980, 2- Land Speeder, my birthday 1979, 1- ORIGINAL white TIE fighter, Xmas 1978. Loved your list but I choose these for a similar reason I choose 1978's Superman:The Movie as the best of it's genre. I was 9 yrs old when it hit the screens. Nothing can take that away. Thanks Tony, my Aussie brother in Arms, for another great show. P.S. Even at 51, with my toys long gone, I'd stil like an original Y-Wing. Reminds me of the F-111 Aardvark I used to work in the UK. Big, fast, hard hitting and just the right amount of ugly to scare the bejezzus out of the enemy.

The Sandcrawler deserves to be near the top. It is also like a playset like the Falcon. So fun to fill with Jawas and broken droids. Can't wait till Procustomfigures Mando figure comes out to have a good play.

Ah man , this video is brilliant!! Had most of these legendary pieces!! Fire took our house a little while back. My kids were just starting to get into STAR WARS & I was going to start the process (as they got older and less destructive etc.) of giving them my lifetime collection, piece by piece. Then as time moved forward , they would've also inherited the boxes , packaging and all the smaller accessories. THANKS FOR THE VIDEO!! IT Has TOTALLY HELPED Me cope with the loss. I know the important thing is that we all made it out safely & we didn't forget the cat......

I only ever had 3 vehicles as a child: Troop Transport, Scout Walker and Snowspeeder... ...Despite being in less than perfect condition, I still have them 😁 The Snowspeeder was my favourite and now has a nice weathered look. Parts of the AT-ST are made from a plastic that has started to crumble. Just to recap, the Snowspeeder’s awesome 😁

The Y-Wing was the ONLY Star Wars toy I had as a child back in the 80's. Although I will never choose it over the X-Wing, for some reason I feel glad the Y-Wing made it into your list.

I used to love my cloud car as a kid as it was easy to hold and “fly”. Glad I kept it in the box. Great video.

I had the Slave 1, X-Wing & Imperial Troop Transporter. I traded for an AT-AT but the other kids mother had a fit and made us trade back 😂

I love this list! It has so many beautifully preserved vintage Star Wars vehicles. I am a little sad to see my beloved sandcrawler did not make it on to the list, but that is just a matter of personal preference.

Great list! I always liked Darth Vader's TIE fighter, that was my favourite Star Wars toy. SLAVE 1 was a cool looking ship as well!

having two older brothers you can imagine my christmas disappointment when the oldest one got darths tie fighter, my other brother got lukes x wing, and yes i got ..... the orange cloud city escort .... not only could they make fun of me but all the kids we knew also did ... lul...

Great list! My personal favorite vehicle was the landspeeder (it was my first vehicle), but the snowspeeder was a good choice too.

The Imperial Shuttle is my favorite vintage Kenner toy vehicle, followed by the Tie Interceptor. But I also love the AT-AT. I would say, these are my three favorite vintage Star Wars toys. Unfortunately I never had one of them as a kid. But I have them nowadays in my collection and I love them. As a kid I always loved my Speeder Bikes especially because I had the Ewok Village and two AT-ST Walkers. Still remembering playing hours with them on the carpet of my room. The Wampa snow monster was also one of my favorite SW toys. I can't remember exactly how many Imperials and Radar Laser Cannons my Wampa knocked out, but I'm sure it's been hundreds over the years.

The Cloud Car is set up for social distancing- absolute Gem :) Excellent Vid :)

What a great video. Remember receiving at AT-AT for my birthday as a child in the U.K. Unfortunately on the same day as my birthday my younger brother fell into my new toy breaking off one of its rear legs, from that day onwards I had a three legged AT-AT 😥

14:45 It was Wedge who took out the AT-AT with his Snowspeeder, because Luke lost his gunner to laser fire then got shot out of the air.

OMG NO!! I loved my Cloud Car!! Hours and Hours of fun. But agree with your number one.

Pretty much nailed it! Agree totally, especially about the worst vehicle. I remember getting the Cloud car and being really disappointed with it as a kid. It was pretty much just used as cannon fodder for my other spaceships.

Can’t believe the Imperial Shuttle ship didn’t make the cut. It was always my favorite.

Ah...memories...I had 3 of these...all on Christmas morning 1981. X-Wing, Millennium Falcon and Snow Speeder. Great list!

I might disagree with the order of vehicles, but I think the top 10 are perfectly chosen and your worst is absolutely the worst. Nicely done Tony.

This brought back a lot of memories.

My dad collected Star Wars in the late 80s early 90s and has nearly every vehicle festured. Does not have the Darth Vader Tie Fighter , many bought at garage sales for just a few dollars. He never got the star destroyer play set though. And he only has half of the sand crawler set, has the escape pod and base but missing the backdrop

Great video thank you so much. At the time of typing I only own the Scout Walker and Speeder Bike. However as a child growing up in the 80's I can happily remember having the Scout Walker (not the same one I have now), the Rebel Troop Transporter, Darth Vaders Tie Fighter, a Speeder Bike, (again, not the same one I have now), X-Wing Fighter, AT-AT, Millenium Flacon, and the Snow Speeder. I stupdily allowed my parents to sell them all in the 90's at a car boot sale. Yes, I know. Watching this I would love all of my above vehicles back but also the Y-Wing Fighter and, although not featured in this video, the Imperial Shuttle/ Again, great video thank you!!

Still got a snow speeder , speeder bike and Slave 1 never taken out of the box. Great vid guys

Surprised the b wing wasn’t in the list but who cares they are all good

The AT-AT was easily the most impressive of the vehicles. I always wanted one as a kid and was happy to receive the cardboard version. I only got the real thing as an adult. Funny enough, the cardboard version was lost along the way somehow so I bought one in the box for nostalgic purposes. It cost me even more than the plastic version...

My sister and I were in our later teens when we started collecting Star Wars figures and vehicles, and we still lived with our parents. We hid everything from our parents to avoid our dad's ridicule, so we took everything out of the original packaging in order to wrap everything in tissue paper and pack them away in a less conspicuous for. I had moved into an apartment when the ATAT walker came out, so I still have that it it's original box, with all the tissue-wrapped figures packed in around it. I haven't taken them out of the box since the early 80's. We never imagined the original packaging would be so important in later value.

I got most of those toys at garage sales!!! I was born in 77 and kids who saw the first two movies were teens and were selling all there toys at garage sales! Thanks for the memories

Awesome video Tony. I really enjoyed your list and it was very kind of Michael from retroblasting to help you out.

The AT-AT and snowspeeder were my most favourite toys in the world as a kid.

Excellent. I was a lil too old for them but appreciate them now. Thanks

I only had the rebel transport. I lost it in a hurricane, I miss it! i remember playing with many of those toys, fantastic times.

Although I knew about the existence of these toys since my childhood thanks to the catalogs that came with the toys my mom gave me, I never knew their features and inside, thank you for the great reviews.

Anyone notice the Imperial Troop Transport made a cameo appearance in the final season 1 episode of The Mandalorian??? So cool when that thing showed up! It was 1978 all over again!

Only ever had one of these, we didn't have any money, but I absolutely loved playing with them at friends. They really were wonderful toys. I could not resist getting the Black Series Snowspeeder last year, scratching that itch years later. Wonderful vehicle.

Lol! I had most of That stuff. The x wing, taun taun, scout walker. My millennium falcon is in my garage, missing pieces, dirty, and I still got a bunch of original action figures from episode 4 and 5. Wow the memories looking at that stuff

Fantastic list and video !! I'm lucky to still have all my vintage Star Wars toys and my Snowspeeder has always been a favorite - I used the battery compartment as a weapons locker for the crew!

You should have at least given Lukes landspeeder an honorable mention.

Great history lesson again snowspeeder is awesome

Great points on every selection. Take that, cloud car! 😄

Speeder Bike ahead of the Slave 1? Not in my book. But to each their own.

You picked my ultimate favorite vehicle for #1. Awesome! Would like to see a review of the black series snowspeeder.

I’m 42 and I wish I still had all my Star Wars Toys. Man what amazing memories. Thank you for putting this list together. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Love your channel, Tony 🙂🥇👏🏻 Feels going back in time. You litterally played with all the same toys I did. I was born in 78 so the 80s was my childhood. Brilliant!

I kinda hoped to see a mini rig or two. I can’t speak for others, but they were the ones we actually had as kids, even if they are a little dumb (I actually really like the mini Shuttle). Other than that, great list 👍

I think your list was pretty spot on, the snowspeeder toy is epic, not taking away from any other vehicle, but vintage, Power of the Force 2, Vintage Collection, & upcomming Black Series version, one of the coolest vehicles has gotten the love it deserves 👍

I knownits not your bread and butter but I love hearing you talk about star wars stuff. One of my favorite vids of yours was when you wife surprised you with the AT-ST. I also loved the list but respectfully think the AT-ST should have been a bit higher with how amazingly reliable that toy is with what you would expect to be such skinny small legs. But you never hear about them falling apart or breaking. Engineering wise that toy is astonishing. Not saying it had to be #1 or anything, but I personally would have it higher than 10. Thumbs up

Another great video Tony. I either had or still have many of those vehicles.

The Falcon will always be number 1 IMO. The Snowspeeder is good but nowhere as good as the Falcon.

My parents have me a snowspeeder for Christmas one year. I LOVED it! I used to try to try to crawl underneath the bed so I could see the laser light up. 😂

Awesome list! And I still have my snow speeder Lol Oh.. and the cloud car

Great video and content once again Tony, definitely agree with your number one slot, hoped the AT-AT and slave 1 would be a little higher up, but I always take new information from your vids, keep up the good work my friend

I had Vader’s Tie and the Interceptor, they both fired off their wings

Being born in 1970 I was the prime Target for sales of these toys but since I was a ward of the state and bounced from foster home to foster home. I rarely got toys and when I did sometimes my current foster parents wouldn't let me take them when I went to the next home. Yeah...fosters rarely buy you toys and when they do most made you leave them behind. Anywho...I remember having 4 of these. In reverse order of my faves... 4. Cloud car...just ugly, lol. 3. Luke's speeder. Loved it. 2. Battle damaged X-Wing. 1. Hoth snow speeder. For figures I had Luke and C3PO. Yup, only two. But I had immense fun with them.

Once again, Tony provides an extremely professional vintage toy review, to educate and enjoy!

I miss being a kid.

Ahhh.. .those were the days... Thank you for upload, you really made my day.

Thanks for dusting off great memories! I miss my Dad. He would surprise me with these toys! I had the best childhood.

The Falcon is number two so the Snow speeder must be in first place. Loved the Falcon and wish I hadn’t been a stupid teenager and binned it.

Great stuff Tony, I would have put Slave 1 a bit higher in the list and the Imperial Shuttle included, just for its sheer size🙂

I was lucky enough to have (and still have) all of these toys plus the Mini Rigs, A-Wing, B-Wing, Shuttle Tydirium, Tatooine Skiff and Luke’s Landspeeder. The only one missing is the Jawa Sandcrawler. I could never get my parents or grandparents to spring for one of those. I have too many favorites to pick just one but I guess that the one that I played with the most was definitely the Falcon. Great list. Thanks for sharing.

Couldn't agree more with the choice for #1. It was by far my favorite as a child. From the list, I had the snow speeder, Falcon, Slave1, and AT-ST...

lol flying hamburger, never heard it called that.

Awesome video. Really makes me sad I wasn’t alive and playing with toys until Jedi. I missed out on a lot. BTW where did you get the stand for the snow speeder?

This is a great list. I had the distinct advantage that my birthday is only two weeks before Christmas so I didn't get many birthday presents. However, Christmas scored me so many of these vehicles. I have, yes still have, most of them including Darth Vader's Tie Fighter. The panels never stayed on the posts. They didn't fit right and never were secure so that they could attach to the body of the ship. It was my least playable vehicle ever. The scout bike was great though and deserves its place in your list. I have the white X-wing but my parents were practical; "you already have an X-wing, why do you need another one?"

Spot on!! Currently restoring my snow speeder and milenium falcon!

Darth VadAr? 😂 (sorry Tony, had to)

Boba's not the Deadliest, he's the Disintegratingest! 😂

The old catalogues never showed all the features, so this is great to see. I'm particularly taken by the modular nature of the Rebel Transport.

Great Video! The thread for my training ball broke/ripped/or was cut when I was a kid but thankfully I never lost it or the support arm. After it came off I used to use it as the "Eye" thing from Clash of the Titans...until I found a dark green clear marble. lol Still has the dirty ass old torn string tied to the ball and the support arm.

I prefer like number one: Imperial shuttle.

I loved the snow speeder. Even at a young age, I realized that it was next level when compared to the other SW vehicles. I'm curious, did anyone else "install" a lower laser gun on the Falcon after seeing it deployed in the snow hanger on Hoth to take out Imperial troops? I used one of the dual cannons from a flakpanzer model that I had and, of course, drilled a hole in the Falcon right behind the cockpit to make it work. Collectors would cringe, but the play value was incredible.

Love it! Still have my Falcon, X-wing and Snowspeeder vehicles, complete and functional. 😁

My dad owns 2 of the speeder bikes and i had such a blast playing with them

DISNEY: Let's forget these uninspiring old toys and sell our own toys like the Rose Tico models. LUKE SKYWALKER: What a piece of junk!!!

Dam this takes me back..... The days when Star Wars toys ruled and the force was not female...

Awesome nostalgia feast seeing all these again

I had the original X-Wing, TIE-Fighter and landspeeder. My brother had the Millenium Flacon and the snowspeeder. I remember the landing gear on the X-Wing broke and the pegs on the back seats of the landspeeder broke off. I did a poor job decaling the TIE-fighter, and I think I ripped a decal or two. I think I still ahve a lot fo the figures, but I played with them HARD as a kid.

Great list, Tony. The Covid Cloudcar. Who knew?🤣 I did the same thing with my Falcon's battery compartment👍🏻.

Snowspeeder is my favorite as well. Great video.

Great video.. I had a few of these when I was young, they weren't cheap and my parents didn't have deep pockets. What I did have was brilliant though. Great memories..

I’m a collector now & buy certain toys from this era, it was the golden age of toys, when technology , met imagination & the kids who would utilize it.

Loved my snow speeder, it was by far my favourite- it’s in my moms basement somewhere but the canons are long gone.

Great video! There was one happening in our small city, con or what, children dress up like anime figures. Took my daughter there. There was one guy selling toys and he had vintage Star Wars toys. Bought the Tie Fighter without thinking. Asked if he has more. Said he has a snowspeeder in his storage, went to meet him in another city and he brought me the snowspeeder. To-buy-list has: Y-Wing, Tie interceptor, At-At, etc. Have to buy them all!

Vintage, my fave vehicles that I owned were absolutely the B-wing(#1 on my list), Darth Vaders Tie, and the Tie Interceptor. Would one day love to have a vintage At-At, Imperial Shuttle and perhaps a Y-wing... Oh...how cool were the times that toy stores were filled with all these boxes and carded figures....;)

I’m loved these toys and the speeder bike is my favorite vehicle. I remember playing with my dad old toys

I totally agree with the Snowspeeder I had all of those models but I do think the B-Wing was really awesome and I did have one and was a monster of a spaceship.
