I’d like to quickly offer Bill McBride a belated congratulations on being recognised by the World Record Academy for his amazing collection of Darth Vader memorabilia!

Photo below of some of Bill’s collection. Simply amazing. 

Not only does Bill have an amazing collection but he is also one of the friendliest and most approachable collectors doing the rounds. Bill kicks it with some of the world’s most well-known collectors but then will equally give up his time to newer collectors like myself who have no idea what they are talking about! Rather than extolling Bill’s most obvious virtues and drowning you in superlatives, I’ll let you decide for yourselves. Here is his previous interview with us:

He has received quite a lot of press recently, all well deserved, and we like to think it was his interview with us that kicked it all off. Well maybe not. It may possibly have had something to do with Bill’s indomitable stash of Darth Vader contraband…

Once again, congratulations Bill and hoping to catch up with you at Celebration Anaheim!
