Star Wars Stan Solo Speeder & Trash Compactor Upgrade Parts!

[@MichaelJShaffer]

I've been a happy customer of both Trash Compactor and Stan Solo. They keep the classic Kenner dream alive and allow my collecting to continue. Thanks for continuing to highlight these types of cool products and talented toy makers.

[@Mvargo97]

Everytime Stan Solo puts out something, I am always constantly impressed by the quality and accuracy to what the Kenner toy would've been. The Trash Compactor parts are also very cool as well.

[@silvervalleystudios2486]

What is the story with the red Amanaman? Is it just an alternate colour of the same character or another of his species?

[@Mvargo97]

@@silvervalleystudios2486 I don't know a ton about Star Wars toys, but I believe the character is called Amaulman and is supposed to look like Darth Maul. Its just a fan created character I believe.

[@stravellwood]

The amount of thought put into these action figures, vehicles and accessories is truly remarkable. Kudos to Stan Solo and Trash Compactor. They are allowing me the chance to take the Star Wars Collection I always dreamed of having, and turning it into a reality. I can't wait to see what they will do next. Big thanks to RetroBlasting for Keeping The Force Strong!

[@likonatera7452]

The fact that this video made my heart jump again with vintage STAR WARS toy excitement (on Christmas Eve of all days) after all these decades makes this officially one of the Best Videos Ever in my book. Thank you!

[@creasybear31]

Wow! I never knew that was a vehicle. I always thought it was a droid. Still learning new things about Star Wars 👍

[@kaijukidsam]

You know it's amazing work when somebody like me, who is NOT a Star Wars collector, wishes I was just so I could get in on the fun :) Glad these guys exist, their passion for their work is inspiring in my own

[@wampaslapyo]

I support both Stan solo and trash compactor. They make awesome options for collectors that go beyond the 96 out there.

[@J-T-A]

Individual specialized weapon accessories were what I dreamed of as a kid.

[@Sano1970]

Wow! I just had a HUGE smile on my face watching this one. Trash Compactor really is coming up with some wonderful accessories, and Stan? Well…his stuff is just fantastic.

[@FADE_FROM_VIEW]

There’s something heartwarming about the fact that a 40+-year-old line of action figures and vehicles is still being breathed new life thanks to talented artisan fans. So many of these feel like trash, compactor and stand solo, were able to mine my childhood imagination and deliver stuff we always thought would have been cool in our collections.

[@LightOfReason7]

You are right, Stan makes his stuff with just the right detail and quality

[@Bather12]

Trash Compactor and Stan Solo. Geniuses and two of the main reasons I continue in the vintage Star Wars hobby. Love it. Love the review. Love them x

[@brianw94]

Thanks for showcasing these two creators.

[@kba702]

Michael, every time you do these videos spotlighting makers like Stan Solo, Trash Compactor, or Joseph Dickerson, it makes me want to go spend all my savings on starting a vintage Star Wars collection. Please don't ever stop.

[@shockwave75]

These videos actually make me glad I'm not a Star Wars collector, because stuff like this would make me go down such a deep rabbit hole trying to get all this cool stuff!!

[@Ecto_Eric]

Love these 2 guys the quality is incredible never been disappointed

[@LogicBlaster]

Another great review, Michael! Your support of this maker movement for vintage style Star Wars toys is always fantastic, especially when the quality is this good! This stuff looks amazing, thank you for showcasing it and making sure that collectors know that this stuff is out there!👍

[@TrashCompactor]

Thanks Michael, you're too kind! 🙂

[@AFAFsamedwards]

Thanks Micheal. I’ve been slowly digging my childhood toys out of parents basement since this years JoeFest. I just cleaned up and put my millennium falcon back together. Found a few more play sets and figures. My focus has been collecting Action Force, black series, & some classified. I’m wanting to grow my vintage star wars now after watching this. That vehicle is so dope and all those accessories are really cool. Time to start shopping. Thanks brother for all u do for this community and happy holidays. 🎄🍻

[@ThePancakeJedi]

Excellent video! On getting close to completing my vintage Kenner collection, I'm starting to look into customs. Quite exciting.

[@scottstalcup6980]

I loved watching this. I don't give a toss about Star Wars but Stan Solo's craftsmanship is astonishing and your enthusiasm is contagious. You're a little kid again here and I'm happy for you. Happy Holidays to you, Melinda, BV and your feline overlords.

[@frankbonura5710]

Michael you are a true Knight of the Old Republic.

[@eyelwin3368]

This is the coolest thing thank you so much for turning me on for this extra Star Wars toy option I can't wait to get myself some of them

[@habbinlad1]

Fantastic review as always Michael. Chris' work is truly beyond comparison 👏

[@MyMateDave72]

Trash compactor and Stan Solo are great. I remember seeing trash compactor in the early days of his productions. Its great to see how far Mark has evolved Trash Compactor. When I first got into purchasing custom figures I found a site that sold them, I won't even waste my time saying the name but I never purchased I just observed for a while. Then I found Stan Solo and without hesitation I purchased my first 4 custom figures. I have continued to purchase from Trash compactor and Stan Solo. Not as much as I would of liked to over the last couple of years due to finance's but I regularly check in with their great additions to the Vintage Kenner Line. Great work guys , best in the business for me .

[@MyMateDave72]

May I add the service from both companies has always been spot on 👌🏼

[@liningtheclouds]

You make my day every day Michael I only discovered your channel a month ago and it's quickly become my favourite.

[@marklechman2225]

All gorgeous stuff, but that mini-rig speeder is the icing on the cake. 👍

[@cjalexanderjr8811]

Since he's producing items from deleted scenes, hopefully he'll make an action figure of Han's girlfriend Jenny Cresswell from the cantina.

[@impossiblepie]

I've bought a Slave Leia, iconicon Fett, esb and rotj Fett and now that speeder from SS and many accessories from trash compactor and I don't plan on stopping! These are awesome!

[@TimHayes]

Excellent video Michael! I hadn't seen all of that deleted scene of Luke with the binoculars before. I just remember a photo in the Star Wars storybook.

[@pkeel7576]

I can honestly say the accessories in this video got my attention Very cool Very well thought out Not to mention these are items we didn’t know we wanted Great job all around

[@JosephDickersonUX]

Really inspiring stuff. I love to see the "flex" these fans are bringing to the toy maker movement. Makes me want to work EVEN HARDER to do my stuff. I need to up my game. Great video.

[@steveharvey2102]

Competition breeds greatness! Wrestling fans have been saying that for over 20 years! Cheers from Canada

[@fritzdescovich3759]

Hi Michael, first time viewer of your wonderful channell. I was a senior in high school back in 1977 when Star Wars first premiered, and I saw the Ubrikkian 9000/Z001 Landspeeder outside the Cantina on Tatooine. I always wished a toy or model would have been made of this vehicle. I build Sci Fi models and surf KZbin channels on the subject. I few days ago I caught your thumbnail of this video which really caught my attention. And at time stop 6:42 you blew me away with the segment that Stan Solo was offering the Ubriggian vehicle. I went to the website using your link and ordered one from the USA Etsy website right away. It is an amazing toy and I was delighted to learn it is injection molded plastic with professionally printed graphics, and not a 3D printed item. Fantastic professional quality! It's a Birthday present that my wife does not know yet she goto for this year! Your entire video was fantastic. I surfed both the Stan Solo and Trash Compactor websites - amazing stuff! Please have a wonderful Chirstmas (or other appropriate Holiday) and an even better New Year's Day 2023!

[@batangbatugan]

Stan Solo is the Last Hope of the Star Wars vintage collector community.

[@jamesporter1123]

i want the t-shirt he is wearing, it looks really cool.

[@mattdawg83686]

The fans come through once again when it comes to making toys! Crazy props to Stan Solo and Trash Compactor!

[@theartisanrogue]

I don't think there's a video you've done that has Stan Solo releases in it, that I'm not watching in just awe and amazement. And Trash Compactor's expanding line gives hope to my childhood figures that I can certainly fix them up again!

[@SaturnCanuck]

Michael that was amazing. Yes they DO look like Kenner made then in 1978. Glad this stuff exists

[@enterprisingcaptian875]

I'd love to see them go all in on a Bespin playset. They could use the micro collection as a source of inspiration, just scale it up like Kenner should have all those years ago. Sadly it was a neglected world by Kenner. I'm certain these interconnected, modular sets would sell very well based on the collectors' desire to have these and the incredible attention to detail that these guys have!

[@retroblasting]

Ummmmm..... We already did that. Like, exactly that. You need to watch our videos more closely.

[@BobbyLCollins]

Hey Cap, here is a link to a feature on an excellent 3D printer's Bespin Playset offering: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZrPqpR7gJ5jias It's modular, and after tax and shipping it all costs around $1,400, there's a one-month lead time for delivery, and you'll need to trim off excess flash from the parts prior to assembly, but it totally exists, it's massive, and after some DIY it can look absolutely phenomenal!

[@JosephDickersonUX]

@@BobbyLCollins You can buy just the Freeze Chamber, The Control Room, and the Gantry separately. For a lot less than $1400. I know, because I'm the maker who did it.

[@BobbyLCollins]

@@JosephDickersonUX Hey Joe, I'm looking at your eBay listing right now. $1,100 + $140 shipping plus 10% tax (could be more, could be less) = $1,364. I probably should have rounded down instead of up, and I didn't notice the discount coupon that would bring it down to a far more reasonable eleven hundred and fifty dollars, and for that I apologize unreservedly.

[@JosephDickersonUX]

@@BobbyLCollins No worries. And yeah, shipping and taxes are the main blocker to buyers - Both of which I can't control.

[@pawlie7694]

Wonderful review! These guys get it!!

[@francoisregis2155]

Great video its amazing what they can do now I got 2 carded Stan solo figures for christmas and damn I want more of their products.

[@BenRai2k]

Always love your videos. That speeder is so cool, even as a little kid I used to look at it outside the cantina and wonder what it was and my imagination ran wild. Even today I still squint and look at every little thing in a scene on the OT wondering what things are. Something new movies just can't make me do.

[@UsualmikeTelevision]

The items you showed us are outstanding especially that mini-rig. Great video my friend!

[@brandonbeekman]

So, soooo good! Loved this video. All amazing additions.

[@ronniemckinney6808]

I'm impressed with Trash Compactor. They do a great job with their new ideas that Kenner didn't do in the original line. Just like Stan Solo, they're fans that are slowly adding to the original vintage line and keeping it old-school cool!

[@Historyhoundww2]

5:10 out of all the background characters Kenner made I’m surprised the long snout wasn’t in the original Kenner line

[@ShanthEnjetiArt]

These videos are really inspiring. Love their work.

[@jonniehotdog]

Both these guys are awesome. A diorama builder's dream!

[@richardrichard688]

I loved that the Imperial Troop Transporter was brought to life in The Mandalorian.

[@Issicra]

Neat. I wondered what that little speeder outside the cantina was.

[@desiarnaz7739]

Great video and very informative. Now… where did you get that t-shirt?

[@seabdv9792]

Could not agree more with what he is putting out. I have bought pieces from both Stan solo and trash compactor.

[@FatherAxeKeeper]

3:37 Chewy lookin pretty cool with those shades 😎

[@lukebaldock4672]

This is what the f'ing retro collection should be doing

[@johnr1457]

WOW! What awesome accessories, thanks R/B.

Thanks for sharing. Awesome video...👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏻😎

[@_iwan_]

Incroyable, j'ai vu à plusieurs reprises cet étrange véhicule sphérique sur le site et tu viens de me faire découvrir à quel endroit il apparaît dans le film 🙃... Merci

[@bgoldbricks]

Now all we need is for Trash compactor to make a power converter accessory for Luke.

[@Youcannotfalter]

Wow, outstanding products.

[@perello23]

This is fantastic! Thanks for sharing buddy!👏👏👏🙌🙌🙌‼️‼️‼️😉👍

[@marklaurenzi1609]

These fans, with a smidgen of Hasbro's budget, are out doing them in both quality and type products people want. Impressive, most impressive.

[@greghughes9375]

Fabulous additions, love the vehicle- beautiful design. Now, about that Hydrovane - !!!

[@farminglittlepeople9623]

Those items look absolutely gorgeous! Great job guys!👍😁

[@zabut2301]

I just purchased the Slave Leia with the collector coin, beautiful work! Thanks Michael for showcasing Stan Solo's work. Every time I purchase a figure from Stan Solo, I know it was money well spent.

[@yunoyuluvit]

I'd love Chris to come out with a Kenner-style TIE Bomber.

[@pasta8787]

Amazing video as always

[@TheBoglin]

That land speeder is insane, as is that spy figure. And these are both production toys made in a factory, or resin castings? Cause if they are resin, they look so much like production PVC it's mind blowing.

[@retroblasting]

I've said it SCORES OF TIMES in these videos, Chris. Stan Solo figures ARE MANUFACTURED. Write it down. - Michael

[@TheBoglin]

@@retroblasting That's amazing, I will definitely have to pick some of these up then. They truly are doing the best work these days in this range.

[@XadielNova]

Did anyone else notice that the long nosed spy was in the background of the cantina backdrop

[@ponchostoybox]

Well articulated. Great products indeed

[@RoyalKnightVIII]

You've said it a million times and it's true a million times ;) The fans will do the work if the mega Corporations won't

[@stevenschwartzhoff1703]

It is strange how little headcovering people use on desert-multi-sun planets.

[@dazbry7612]

TheNext17 are great aswel, those figures are done in factory aswel

[@mixedhairless]

Thank you… love it… Do you know about “Cardboard Galaxy”? He does play sets…

[@wesleyhendricks2486]

I really love the stan solo stuff and wish he had a subscription where he would send the new figures and a regular time frame. Great stuff.

[@Peak-OB1]

Got the speeder also, it is great and my favorite thing all year!

[@krdragon6950]

I remember in your Star Wars Follies video about the Kenner micro collections, you said you wish the Cloud City playsets were made bigger for the 3.75 figures. Maybe Stan Solo or trash compactor should consider that for its next project?

[@retroblasting]

You've been a subscriber for 8 years.... and you didn't see the two videos here where we ALREADY DID THAT?

[@AllBreaksLoose]

I'm blown away with the time and care they put into their work. Now....I'm hazarding a guess here...but why hasn't a certain major company see that there's a demand for this and hire them ?! Oh wait....that made sense...

[@saltytexasranger6301]

I had no idea that thing was a land speeder, I always thought it was a water dispenser or a Tatooine popcorn/snack machine...

[@matafuko]

I always called him "wee werr wap wap wowww"

[@Paul_the_Bruh]

I've purchased Stan Solo and Pro Custom figures and accessories and they are both every bit of the high quality that you'd expect from vintage Kenner. I'm going to have to check out Trash Compactor next. It's such a great time to be a vintage collector.

[@sva3897]

Stan Solo & Trash Compactor: well done! Wish I had these items back in the eighties (the Luke blaster holder!). Hope to see more vehicles by Stan Solo in the future, the speeder looks awesome! Great choice for a painted logo instead of a decal. The fans are doing the best work, proven again!

[@dylanbottom4669]

I never knew that thing was a vehicle, 😲

[@ManCave1972]

I love the nods to 2001 with the Kubrick ‘Ubrikkian 9000’ named after the HAL9000 computer and the Z001 reference. They hid another version of the 2001 escape pod in Watto’s junkyard in the Phantom Menace. This ship is another remarkable item from Stan Solo- I grabbed a Yakface figure from him before and it’s truly amazing.

[@NewtonDKC]

I love these guys and their products so much!!! It’s like the dreams I always had years after the line ended where I’d walk in a store and find a bunch of Star Wars stuff I’d never seen before - it’s like they are both making those dreams come true! Id have utterly love that Ubrikkian Speeder as I’d have used it for the escape pod for R2 and 3PO (I know there was the one with Land of the Jawas but I never had it for some reason). I’d have the Droids flying all sorts of missions and adventures to save the gang! :-) wow I miss being a kid and playing with my figures!!!

Everything looks really great & awesome except for the Leia accessory, the color doesn’t quite match but still a nice addition. I really like the welding gear for Chewbacca, that’s awesome!

[@timothyward8695]

You're never going to get a piece that matches the varied Leias out there. My Leias are all different colors.

[@MichaelJShaffer]

All of the items from Trash Compactor are meant to be painted - states it on the site. Even the mouse droids. They do offer some items pre-painted for a fee.

[@indigoyarkindell968]

Outstanding video and thanks for the links!

[@Bobaluga9]

Great work.

[@magnumrex]

I got garindan this week and it's really impressive. It looks and feels like a Kenner figure. Out of all the customs I've seen it fits in the best.

[@yesterlandtoys1138]

Very cool on what they are doing.

[@georgeaitken2719]

Only a idiot would hate these upgrades they enhance and make more screen accurate action figures those guys are the best

[@Froobyone]

I was today years old when I found out that's a speeder and not a really fat droid!

[@OP-dy1hd]

That bubble thing was a landspeeder!? I always thought it was a phone booth! LOL

[@bigpun7916]

That thing looks amazing ..and when I was a kid in 1977 , I swear I saw a ride in a mall that was a plug in ride you would put a quarter in and it was identical to that star wars vehicle in the movie , I swear I saw it .

[@scotthildebrand3148]

I wish Stan Solo would make a Jedi Knight Luke on a card that had a picture of him on the sail barge with his green light saber. There is a known photo already of this, the storybook. Looks much better than the one that was chosen years ago.

[@kirbymarchbarcena]

I gotta say...those are so cool!

[@ThatGeekyMaker]

I have the entire 77-85 vintage collection and never had plans to buy custom figures, but when I saw what Stan Solo was doing I changed my mind! I got the Garindan, Slave Leia, Oola, and (as a droid builder) I of course had to get a bunch of the Astromechs. I know exactly what you mean, they look like what Kenner would have made back in the day and fit in perfectly!

[@jamespeters2859]

Brilliant video!!! 👊🏼

[@JMan77]

These are really well done! Chewies goggles. How cool is that!

[@gensolo83]
