Star Wars Toy Hunting at Echo Base XIV - April 13th 2024

[@dezt5108]

Fantastic video guys, and truly humbled to be asked to be a 'clue holder'. I hope you had an awesome day like I did, looking at, and buying our favourite toys. But most importantly meeting up with the great community!

[@alongandlongtimeago]

Thanks for watching Dez! And a massive thanks for being part of the challenge. A great day was had for sure! Nice profile pic! 😉

@@alongandlongtimeago haha, it was time to change it from the Rancor keeper in a cap!

[@AllTheCoolStuff]

I think that image has to be the best intro for you ever!!!!

[@Gforceracing20]

Fun challenge & video lads!

[@alongandlongtimeago]

Thanks for checking it out buddy 🙏

[@darthwizzywizard]

So many beauties to buy at that show. ❤

[@alongandlongtimeago]

It makes you wish money was no object at Echo live 🤤. Thanks for watching bud 🍻

[@darthwizzywizard]

@@alongandlongtimeago I could easily spend 50k there in 10 minutes easy.

Great video Adam, really captures the day. Was brilliant to meet you and have a good chat before the doors opened. Laughed out loud at Emperor Martyn’s brilliant cameo performance and your reactions priceless. Glad you finished the challenge, looking forward to seeing your pickups. Had a great day at Echo, hoping Ican make the next one. Picked up some nice vintage Star Wars items and thoroughly enjoyed seeing some friends again and meeting some new ones 👍

[@alongandlongtimeago]

Thanks for watching Scott! So good to meet you and appreciate you keeping me company in the queue there! 😂 Martyn did a fantastic job with his Emperor impression…. That take! 😉 You must be close to the full 96 now after your Echo pickups!?

[@scottwhitehouse7152]

@@alongandlongtimeago 😂 I’m hoping we’ll be seeing Emperor Martyn again … maybe he could host a weekly Star Wars quiz 😂🤣 I now need less than 20 to complete .. 19 I think so done really well adding 8 figures in last 10 days 👍

[@chillwiththelil2382]

That intro was brilliant! We had a blast as well at Echo Live, its just a great show, well organised, great stallholders, great atmosphere and loads of Star Wars goodness! Look forward to seeing what you picked up.

[@alongandlongtimeago]

Thanks. Martyn’s Emperor was pretty great! I think I’ve got some nice pickups from Echo but I’ll let the viewers decide! Thanks for watching

[@burgieboy3586]

11:49 Yay. Me and the missus made it into the video. It was so great to spot you mid challenge and thanks for taking the time to chat to us. Echo Base was just out of this world and we will be back. Looking forward to your pick up and challenge results video. MTFBWY

[@alongandlongtimeago]

That’s a good spot. Blink and you miss it 😂 Thanks for watching and coming over for a chat! Pickups vid coming soon! MTFBWY

[@MoparMcNeer]

Adam - you crushed this one buddy - both the event coverage as well as the great edit. Had a great deal of fun seeing all that EB had to offer. I was happy to see you showing items slowly enough that we could see the asking prices (as I always like to have an eye on the markets). And while we don't yet know if you completed the event challenge in time or what your pick ups were, I enjoyed the added suspense of the clues & clock. Emperor Martyn got off easy this go-round (but at the expense of missing the event of course). Looking forward to your event follow up video soon. Glad you enjoyed yourself. Looked like a blast - hopefully I'll have a chance to catch up with you guys at one in the future.

[@alongandlongtimeago]

Thanks Josh. High praise - you make me blush ☺️ 😂 These events just get better and better. Martyn set a hell of a challenge for me and it made the day brilliant but also exhausting 😂

[@deanp6929]

Excellent vid guys! Well done! 👍

[@alongandlongtimeago]

Thanks for watching 🙏🏼

[@VintageToyRush]

Brilliant Adam!! Great to catch up at Echo and cool to see everyone appear, although that VTR bloke, he's strange! 🤣 Loved the challenge and looking forward to the outcome and pickups 👍

[@alongandlongtimeago]

Thanks Dave. Always great meeting up with you guys. I quite like that VTR bloke! 😏 Just watching your video now! 👌🏼

[@JamesRichard-xy4db]

Nice one Adam! Martyn slacking off again 🙄😉 Look forward to seeing if you finished the challenge and your pickups 😎

[@alongandlongtimeago]

Won’t be long. I have some great pickups too in my opinion! Thanks for watching! 🙏🏼

[@keithguppy12345]

Great video, for a minute I thought it might have been me distracting Stu on the top of the escalators trying to get phone signal 😂. Glad you found him

[@alongandlongtimeago]

Thanks Keith and thanks for watching. I’m gutted we didn’t bump into each other. Next time!

[@delvianseek]

It seems like collecting events this year have been really good - eager to see how you did on the challenge

[@alongandlongtimeago]

Thanks for watching. Yeah, it’s been really good so far this year. The challenge results should be out this Friday! 😉

[@MADMARSHATV]

that was fun !

[@alongandlongtimeago]

Glad you enjoyed it 👍👍👍 Really appreciate you watching 🙏

[@AllTheCoolStuff]

Great vid, thanks for filming the stall :)

[@alongandlongtimeago]

Thanks for watching and for bringing your wares! You guys aren’t too far away so we might have to make a little trip to the store when Martyn comes down in the summer!

[@AllTheCoolStuff]

@@alongandlongtimeago sure thing, have you ever come down for Farthest From before?

[@alongandlongtimeago]

@@AllTheCoolStuff No, it’s been on the list but haven’t gotten around to it yet. Looking forward to doing so 😎👍

[@AllTheCoolStuff]

@@alongandlongtimeago oooooo well, I would recommend that whole heartedly, which is held here, but even so and outside that, pop down anytime, as there is a lot of Star Wars always here :)

[@grantcriddle1326]

Nice to meet you mate!

[@alongandlongtimeago]

And you. Thanks for watching!

[@Blackedoutewoks]

Very cool video 👍

[@alongandlongtimeago]

BOE!! 🙌🏻 Thanks. When are we gonna bump into you at one of these!?

[@universaltoycollector]

Awesome video, as always, gents. I must apologise for going to the car at that particular time. I'm glad you managed to complete the challenge, though.

[@alongandlongtimeago]

Thanks Stu! Was a great day and your trip to the car just added to the excitement! 😂

[@universaltoycollector]

[@uksilverstacker413]

I buried an entire bin bag full of Star Wars toys in my parents garden back in 1983

[@alongandlongtimeago]

😳😨 Time to get the shovel out and head back to your childhood home!

[@adamstar7516]

Dude. So so so annoying that you don’t show who’s stand you are showcasing as you pour over Al that sweet goodness. I saw at least 3 things I wanted to buy and have no idea where to find them online! That stall at 7’45’’ whose was that?

[@alongandlongtimeago]

Im sorry dude we really messed up with this one! If you mean the stall that sold the Kenner Action Figure guide books then that was an amazing company called Read 5 Designs, www.readfive.co.uk/ However if it was the one that is showing the Palitoy Jawa then I will check the raw footage and get back to you. 👊 Appreciate you watching all the same 👍👍🙏

[@adamstar7516]

@@alongandlongtimeagoCheers mate. It was the palitoys Jawa stand 👍🏻

[@adamstar7516]

Any luck?

[@alongandlongtimeago]

Unfortunately not I'm afraid. Their sign is on the left in the footage on the table however its too blurry to make out. Sorry about that. Its not much consolation I know but when at the next Echo Base I will make a note when there for you. 🙏

[@adamstar7516]

@@alongandlongtimeago Thanks. Is there a list of exhibitors anywhere online or do you know the town they were from?
