Star Wars Midnight Toy Relase - Richmond Zellers - 1999

A midnight toy release for The Phantom Menace occured at Landsowne Mall, Zellers,1999.
I am visible hackey sacking in line and laying out several action figures in the store. I bought every single figure, including the 4 battle droid variants. Still own them all and will retire from the money soon.

Kind of sad to see this just the fact that When the world was in a place when the toy line for a movie would come out with deemed newsworthy. There’s so much negative and toxic crap going on the news doesn’t have room for things like this anymore
