[QUOTE="db94, post: 192027, member: 4318"] Chiffy - read your post and was utterly blown away with your room - what a collection, fantastic mix of old and new. I really enjoy displaying both together, love the vintage style card back and the memories they bring. I started buying modern figures to compliment my original vintage ones, loose figures look great stood in front of a modern vintage card. What I really like is how initially people make the obvious comparison and highlight the new sculpts, paint jobs and detailing but after a few minutes they notice all the detail is also right there on the original figure as well - a figure or ship made in the 70's or 80's. The modern stuff actually showcases just how amazing our vintage stuff really is. Only got back into collecting last few years (wife bought me a MR lightsaber as I had wanted a "real" saber since I was 5 and that was enough to get everything down from the attic) but loving every second of it.
