Luke Kaye, 56, from Swindon, UK, once held a Guinness World Record for amassing the UK’s largest Star Wars memorabilia collection - once valued at £1million.

Over the years since the age of 13 he has amassed a huge collection of Star Wars toys and collectibles - enough to fill a warehouse.

The first set is now being sold on Friday with one Jedi lightsaber set to fetch at least £7,000 on its own.

Another auction of over 16,000 items will be held in January. His collection was previously reported to be worth £1million.
