Those look pretty cool actually lol
















No I won't collect any modern full stop it just doesn't mean anything to me and I am too much of a completest to go for modern I would end up swamped in a load of old bollocks just to keep up with the new lines.

Nice score tho col they look really good!!!

Cheers whiteskinnydroid.Im going to get the 30th set,as its a full set i can get,but i will also pick up what i can vintage too,i know im almost certainly never going to complete a vintage set,but i can have at least one complete modern one,then just do what i can with others.I would love a yoda hut playset scene on dagoba is it?But cost and availability will probably stop me,unless a modern one is made available? :D

A dissapointing car boot,not many out this morning,looked like rain,there were some figures individualy bagged,but they looked very rough and didnt have knee joints,i didnt like the look of them so gave them a miss,but i did come across this set of enamel pin badges,got them down to £3 , so i came away with a grin on my face :D ,what do you think?

You right there,the ones i saw were in really bad condition and no weapons or anything,put in a plaggy bag and still looked bad.wanted £1.50 each,I wasnt sure as i wouldnt even display them.The legs had no knee joint,just a solid mould,or is that normal on some,am i going to be kicking myself?
Those pin badges look to be a collection from the sun and news of the world.

all vintage figures have unarticulated knees

i use beater figures from car boots for customs figures

i repainted a gammy guard blue and purple and it sold for £11
