I’m from the Netherlands.
Star Wars was the first movie I saw in the theaters.
It changed my life.
I’m 52 and still a kid.
Maybe we can meet at a celebration some day!
We first gonna defeat the dark side.. yeah we can!
me too
Me too, Starwars slows down the ageing process.
Ditto.
The Sand Crawler is amazing...
As a 52 year old fan who’s been there since 1977, the way Star Wars captured the “lived in” look was what made it so special and unique for a Sci Fi film. I prefer the practical effects of the geniuses of ILM and how their vision of this gritty and real world environment felt. Seeing how weathered the ships and equipment were made is what set it apart from any other films in that genre. Your incredible collection is astonishing. Thank you for sharing this with us
Love the YWings, the workhorse of the rebellion.
Hi Michael, "Double Chili Dog" that's the Tie Bomber, cuz of the whole shape of the fighter, two dogs in a bun.
Great video on an envious collection. Btw, an unknown hero of Star Wars lore is Collin Cantwell, who with McQuarrie, helped create some of these iconic designs before ILM was even formed.
Completely awestruck by your amazing collection!! Could get lost for days just looking at it all. Really takes you into that galaxy far far away 😃👌👍
if didn't know any better, i'd think you were doing this from Skywalker Ranch. What an awesome collection.
Forget Skywalker Ranch. I might get arrested trying to sneak into your house - the back way. Amazing collection. Thank you for sharing.
Hilarious. Your great!!
I build 1/32 airplane kits from Tamiya, Hasegawa & others. Man, I wish some model company would do injected plastic models of the Star Wars ships. A 1/32 TIE fighter is out (just got it), but the rest are in odd scales. Need new tooled X & Y wings and Vader’s TIE all in 1/32. Bandai makes them in 1/72, but 1/32 is my favorite. An X-wing next to a P-51D would look awesome next to each other in 1/32.
Awesome collection!
So beautiful I cried! So many childhood dreams.
As I commented on the other video posted a day ago, this collection and the way it is displayed are by far the best I have seen for any collection type. Heck even most museums don't have such beautiful displays. Thanks for sharing with us!
The man’s going to build the real Death Star someday. Lol. Great video!
Geeeeezzzz Man !!! You are a really Happy Guy. What a collection Pal !!! Congratulations in that. 😮
loved the AT-AT and the sandcrawler most,
i collect kenner star wars actionfigures and vehicles since my childhood
but U really have taken the next level 🤖
I had no idea Larry the Cable Guy was into Star Wars!
I love your videos and your collection man. Great series of videos you do.
Just subscribed..WOW!!! What a collection.. I hope to someday make my garage onto my little museum .. Just to sit there surrounded by all my childhood memmories
Just beautiful
So cool so glad I finally found this channel
Thanks for the great video!! One of my favorite details is the marker above the cockpit of the Millennium Falcon being and old style Allied Van Lines logo!! My father worked for them for many years and it blew my mind when I discovered it!!
great seeing and hearing about your collection.
love the wall display of the ships
Thank you for your genuine love of Star Wars! Those studio scale models you own are just beautiful!!! Thank you for sharing so much!

Thanks for the sub!
I'm a huge fan of models and dioramas. Thanks for sharing.
You and me both!
Just AWESOME....
Beautiful collection!collection!
I really like the choice of music you use in the background; clearly it's all Star Wars based, but it's the blending and use of it that really made your video come to life...brought back good memories 😊
Hey Joanna, thank you. Yeah even though I get flagged from ebay on copyright I just love the music. Besides I dont do it for the money
Beautiful models! I love your collection so much :-)
WOW! The giant Y-wing, AT-AT and Sand crawler diorama are my favorites. I’m working on a Bandai Perfect Grade Millennium Falcon right now. The detail is stunning. I’m praying I get the paint and weathering right.
Very cool!
Thanks for the video
The idea for the Tie Bomber came from a hot dog stand that ILM bought lunch from, and they had a hot dog that had 2 chili sausages in it and it was called double chili hot dog, and according to Lorne Petersen it seems to be a fun design.
Funny-I saw your video where you tried to visit ilm, and you told about all the letters you had written to Lucasfilm when you were younger, - I did the same, have quite a few letters from lucasfilm,
An AMAZING collection !!!
Thank you!!
Man, you seem so honest and passionate about it all...
You have a new subscriber right here!

Thanks so much!!
Beautiful pieces ! Thanks for sharing such an amazing collection ! Subsribed
What an amazing collection!
Thank you!
Wow, it's..... Wow.
Congrats for your collection.
They deserve (every one of the models) his own video in deep.
Greetings from Mexico.
Thank you so much 😀
I custom built a Gallofree GR-75. I made mine a little bit more banged up and dirty but its bigger than studio scale. It's hanging in my studio right now. I love your collection and I am jealous.
Sounds very cool. No need to be jealous. Thank you for watching. Keep doing your thing
Awesome collection
@5:00 The four aft engines and exhausts of the X-wings are actually a GE J79 jet Engine from Revell's 1/32 F-4 Phantom. In the Early 1970s Revell Produced 1/32 scale F-4 Pahtoms (with very poor detail and fit) that had a removeable J79 jet engine. Star Wars modelers took that engine and cut it in half and used the aft end of it including the Afterburner turkey feathers. If you match up those engines with the aft engine of Xwing you will see its a perfect match. When I was kid in 1981 when I belonged to the official Star Wars fan club there was an artical describing this in a monthy news letter. I had built those 1/32 F-4 kits and knew exactly what they were talking about.
wow you have a treasure, may the force be with you
Amazing video. Thanks for sharing! I would say, though... I've been watching videos of studio models lately, and some guy who is recreating the Hoth Ion Battery said the baking soda messed up the original pretty badly.
Awesome collection of models! My sister gave me a model of The Millenium Falcon from Toys R 'Us back in the early 80s after TESB had come out. I was about 12 or 13 then and did a pretty good job putting that monster together. I had it for quite a while after that but not sure whatever happened to it. Looking forward to seeing more video pf your collection. BTW, that book on vehicles looks AMAZING!!
Thanks for sharing!
Wonderful and informative video! Amazing collection! Thanks! Subbed!
Impressive collection

Iron Maiden Song! Losfer Words (Instrumental)!

Thanks 👍
Love to see these next to the Hasbro/Kenner models for size comparison. Just out of curiosity.
All cool models but that Sandcrawler was awesome. Great video man!
Yes crawler is one of my favs. I'm getting a Ralph McQuarrie one off custom crawler. I'm picking it up in October and yes will be doing a video so if you haven't Subscribe and thanks for compliment
Great video and incredible studio scale collection! This was uploaded on my 21st birthday too, bonus!
Happy birthday!
Thx for the Video!
I don't know why it took so long for this video to show up in my feed but it has and I'm a new subscriber, I love what you've done.
I remember watching the Making of The Return of the Jedi or maybe it was when I was at the Marin County Fair in 1988 or 1989, George Lucas had a lot of props on display there including the actual models, costumes, and droids. I remember the TIE-Fighter that looks similar to Vader's, the TIE-Bomber was called the twin chili pepper fighter/bomber model because it looked like it was made with two stuffed chili peppers.
A couple months ago I was at a channel that showed how to clean your Kenner X-Wing toy and he mentioned the wing markings as numbers, plus the Luke X-Wing action figure is actually Biggs (Red 3) because Lucasfilm gave Kenner a random photo of an X-Wing with pilot and the X-Wing was Biggs' because it had three tick marks instead of five and the action figure had dark hair instead of blonde like Luke. I always thought the three tick marks on the Kenner X-Wing toy was because the toy wasn't proportional to scale and they didn't have enough room on the sticker for five tick marks and just settled on three and I never could figure out the brunette Luke until a couple months ago when that mystery was finally solved.
Glad you enjoyed John, thank you
I'm so glad you've decided to share your collection Michael, every video is truly fascinating!
Back when movies were movies i always wanted to build for a model movie comp
miniatures are coming back, and these times doom most of us to a profusion of free time.
if that's you, do what I'm doing: make this your moment!
@@oS2006DE ive been building some bandi stuff. And now i refinish guitars.
wow very cool
Cool thanks for posting
Glad you enjoyed it
Chili bomber came from a place nearby where they would grab a double chili dog for lunch, I think it came up since Lucas told them to make the Millennium Falcon look like a hamburger
Amazing collection! Your display is breathtaking! Just one thing. You mentioned Blue leader became red leader, it was actually repainted to red 2, Wedge’s X-wing.
You need to add the 43” studio scale sandcrawler to that gallery and I can help with that! Spent 10 years on the subject 2 trips to Japan and over 10k buying up all the required models to make it. Not 3d printed either.
fantastic collections!!!
Thanks for visiting
@@star.killer77-27 welcome, really impressive.
@@star.killer77-27 hope you get to make a Tantive 4 (my favorite ship).
Dear StarKiller77, awesome video about these amazing models. A few years back I had the chance to see a few real ILM models in person. In one word beautiful. I love Star Wars since I saw it in the ‘70’s and it changed my life. Could you please tell me if the the Japanese Book you show in the video is still available somewhere? May the force be with you, always …
Mike... you have outdone yourself my friend. I am very honored with your kind comments and reference to Modelers Miniatures & Magic. You are doing amazing work, and wonderful accomplishments in this art form. Thank you for you excellence my friend.
GREAT VIDEOS !! i hope you will get a "Razor Crest" studio scale for your collection because from what i'm hearing they are now going back to "motion capture" filming because the Mandalorian series has been very successful and many of the original people at Lucasfilm are feeling excited to bring back this excellent form of film making .... Many Good Thoughts To You and Looking Forward to more of your collection ... "This is the way" ... "The Force will be with you always" - Alec Guinness 1977
Thank you
Did you ever work on any Star Wars? Great display . Love learning more and I am a 50 yr old retired medic/ security contractor and still a kid at heart about my Star Wars!
Hey there, no. Closest I ever got to Star Wars was Skywalker Ranch. Left in cuffs. Did you see that? My fav video. Anyway I have directed my own films as well as others just not Star Wars. However def what got me into this sickness.
@@star.killer77-27 yeah man I’ve watched them all. That’s a great story ! Sounds like something I’d done for a job back then! I just bought a new house and want one of my 4 man cave rooms a Star Wars room, I need chat with ya on how you did your walls . And I’m the same, messing with all my Toys is about only thing makes me feel that happiness from when I was 7-8 years old!Thanks man
It was easy for the modelers because they made most of it up as they went along.
Cool video.
Man your passion is awesome. I love SS models too. I’m 3d printing some Y-Wing and X-wings. I plan to do a trench run on my wall, so one side of the tench in a action scene.
I also remember getting my flacon Kenner as a kid. I used to sleep with it too LOL.
Do you paint your models yourself? I love painting models.
That would be cool!
we need a dedicated video for the Y-Wing
I agree so much I stopped playing and miss all my friends
Very very cool! Hey a question. What are you using for your stand armatures?
Great vid....Great collection...Great wife!
Thank you kindly
One thing about the Studio Scale B-Wing is the unit crest on it (Not the orange meatball). The unit crest on it is from the 1st Tactical Fighter Wing (Which was a real USAF Unit till 1991) I should know because my dad was with that unit from 1982 to 1991 then it was renamed 1st Fighter Wing in 1991 and my dad was with them till his retirement in 93. The crest remained the same after the name change.
Hi great video. I’ve just got the bug for studio scale models. where can you get the book from
Those Y-Wings got a subscriber.
Thank you
Awesome video. Where can I get the stl files for the lifesize vintage stormtrooper action figure?
I hope it does come back, I haven't seen a CGI model that I liked yet.
Exactly.
Mike, I first saw your videos a week ago. You're costing me a lot of money lol
Welcome aboard! Lol sorry
Your collection is glorious!
This is an awesome video. Can you do one about Battlestar Galactica (the Original version)?
Wow so do stay tuned. It may honestly be a few month but I actually have a few of the ships in the works. I love the originals
Wow. Absolutely Fabulous my Brother.
Having the practical prop in hand is fantastic. Nothing like it. I’m in the middle of building the DeAgostini Falcon. Taking me forever lol. But it’s a labor of love
Ok.....I want those models😃
good day you sell replicas of the ships, and also of the characters
For those like me who struggle with ADHD 'studio scale' model simply means a replica model matching the size of the model used to film whatever series or movie(s) the original prop appeared in. Calling these models 'studio scale' is misleading as there is no one set scale studios go by. Filming props are made to whatever size and scale the director and/or effects director feel will best fit whatever scene they're appearing in.
