The Sandcrawler: Star Wars Collectors' Show
Summary: We like Star Wars stuff! Hosted by Dengar Dan and Mike Tarkin, the Sandcrawler is a Star Wars collecting show hosted by two Star Wars action figure collectors, one from Massachusetts and one from Ontario, Canada with a focus on Star Wars action figures, collectors and their collections. A nearly 20 year difference in age between the hosts, Dan Lizotte (@DengarDan) and Mike MacDonald (@Mike Tarkin) provides a large scope of opinions about Star Wars collecting.

This week we hit a milestone, talk about the feast or famine that was Solo Weekend and review Wave 2 of the Power of the Force!
Mac and Dan are in a Solo mood! We take a look at the aliens revealed in the Denny’s commercial and discuss which one’s we would like to see in toy form. Funko has the jump on a lot of these new characters and we discuss. StarWars.com revealed a ton of Solo related merchandise and even though we have sworn to stick to our collecting focuses we’ll probably break our own rules yet again.We take a look at the Solo trailer and geek out about what could be the most fun Star Wars movie yet!
This week we begin a series that we are simply calling, “The Greatest Action Figure Line Ever Created .” What is that line? The Power of the Force line that launched in 1995. We also talk about recent updates to Haslab and what does the end of ToysrUs mean for toy collectors.
On Ep 33 we first talked about changing how we collect as Star Wars fans. With The Last Jedi, Solo and some announcements from New York Toy Fair, we are both making some adjustments to how we collect Star Wars. It’s a conversation we feel many collectors are having right now. We also discuss the progress of Hasbro's "Haslab", new Funko POPs from The Last Jedi and for some reason, random Kevin Costner movies. It's a BIG show this week, trust us though, it's a good one!
We take a look at the reveals of New York Toy Fair 2018 including Hasbro's big announcement of Haslab.
