Many thanks to Gary Smith for this amazing reseal example of a 41 Vader :!: The left side is factory sealed so it was carefully opened and then lined back up and resealed v cleanly as u can see 8) Sadly it's missing it's footer but hey :!: It's good enough for me and I normally only collect MOC.

Secondly many thanks to Marc Hockley who got me this nice cast & crew exclusive Ep 8 top.

Great items and great to finally meet up and put a face to a (user) name

My Vectis purchase arrived today. I got into a bidding war with this one, but having been on the lookout for one for ages I decided before the auction I was going to win this whatever it took. Possibly my favourite MOC purchase this year, I think this cardback looks particularly gorgeous offerless and logoless.

Well done Edd, was waiting to see what it was you were after.

As for me, fessing up time. This was a massive indulgence and mid-life crisis purchase. Hit 40 this year, and been doing lots of box ticking/bucket list type stuff. I saw this weeks ago, but from the 2 big auctions they have sold at before, I knew I was never spending anywhere near that price. When the bidding opened, I think it went straight to final bids, and I couldn't believe the price, so I bid once to get highest, telling myself if there is another bid I won't bid any more. Shock horror, I won. This and the POTF Nikto went for WELL below previous sale prices. One of my top 2 favourite MOCs acquired. The other being a LEDY ERG. I believe that makes 7 AT AT Driver MOCS in my focus.

Great pick up :) I was amazed at how "cheap" the Nikto went. I thought they were around the £4K mark.

Only just noticed the coin on this. Did they package all AT-ST Drivers with an Ewok coin? Can't think of anything more opposite than Warok!

Love the Vader, palitoyjunky :) Really nice looking reseal.

It seems so. These 2 recent sales in big auctions show the Ewok coin.

My first ever purchase from Farthest From. May not be a big deal to most but I got a small vintage buzz from it.

Lovely FF pickups guys. Well I never made it down but I did manage to get something on eBay I'm excited about. It was on at £150 but he excepted a lower offer and I was able to use the eBay 10% off offer that Taffius posted up on the forum, so in the end I got it for a price I was happy with. The left leg has probably been glued but it still looks awesome on display. :D

Was recently back in Newcastle rummaging through some old boxes I have stored up there. I salvaged these two masks. I've had them since I was a kid but had never really paid them any attention due to focusing on the figures etc. I heard about similar masks on the TVR podcast. Surprised they have survived so long. Would I be correct in thinking they are the same Ben Cooper masks as featured on episode 52?
