The Vintage Rebellion hits a nelson of episodes, 111. Shake your legs in respect.
This month’s special guest is Blake Edgerton, who joins Rich to chat about collecting Down Under, and in particular, a wonderful story of an amazing vintage find, from a guy who inherited his father’s collection.
The intro segment sees the lads discuss the current state of Star Wars, and where they’d like to see the saga develop in the years to come. Moving swiftly on, there’s a quick run through the latest purchases, a lively Action Vehicle Face-Off, and Andy P fires 20 questions at the others in this month’s quiz.
An international New Acquisitions section sees the team looking at American MOCs, German lobby cards, French 3POs, and diecast and vinyl from Japan. In Rebel Briefings, Rich tells all about touring Tatooine, we look back at Echo Live, and hear from Pete about an exciting new job opportunity. There’s also news of a new auction venture for Nick Dykes, a shaggy dog story, and a letter from Palitoy. The lads wrap up with a look at a 70s toy shop, exercising Star Wars style, and black blobs on Jason’s group.
This month’s licensee section sees the boys getting in a lather as they take a dive into Omni Cosmetics. Will they clean up, or wash out? Listen to find out!
All this and the usual stuff and nonsense, look for the podcast in all the usual places.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
