Latest Acquisitions

Top score Mike. First time I've ever even seen that promo sticker!

My collection of press and preview items has increased.



First invite is the first one I've ever even seen and must be one of the only kind to feature the early 'Pointy W' logo. items that have that logo are really few and far between. It's certainly one of my favourite items thus far.

Second is an early screening preview pas for ESB - these aren't that rare but finding one at a bargain price is - less than £30.

And thirdly a Cast and Crew screening pass for ROTJ - again, been on the look out for one of these for some time and although creased in the middle, it was a bargain at £35 IMO.

These things, whilst not everyone's cup of tea, represent a real part of SW history to me.

U-grade it!

Seriously, I'm a cat person and that is a cute little furball. Nice pick up

Matth, interesting sketches. As you say, the Rancor is awesome. I reckon I could have done the Max Rebo one, though

Awesome AT-AT. Favourite vehicle and to see your run of them is mouth watering, Mike. I'm praying for snow this year in the hope hope you get them all out to recreate how the Empire should have handles Hoth

Absolutely brilliant premier and preview paperwork, Mark :shock: Loving the ESB leaflet artwork in the format. Would love to see all three posters done in that format in full size. And I never even knew the Star Wars wording had a previous form, let alone seen it. Love the Cast and Crew screening invite for Marble Arch. Was seriously, seriously tempted by Mike Edmunds' own one when that came up for sale but the last thing I need to do is branch into another area of collecting.

Great, great pick ups everyone. Real variety this time.

Last couple of days, desperately trying to prep for the next Podcast. I don't want to face the Wrath of the Horse Whisperer!

Sublevel: Sweet collection Mark. I haven't seen that pointy W before, really cool. The cast & crew items are also really nice. I totally love this sort of stuff, as you know. I'm still choked by your generosity.

Great stuff as ever lads

Building up the fockuss now, just added another Polish bootleg.



Also happy to have just received this proofcard

Wow that bootleg looks mint!

Impressive looking graded proof.

Awesome pick up's guys. Loving the kitten

just landed this off ebay. thanks to mark for stepping back from this one cheers mate

It belongs in your collection mate

Very very happy with this £130. Couple of clips missing and top cover but I'll restore it. Other than that very good condition!

It must of been destiny I was logged onto gumtree and as I refreshed it the dearhstar add came up, I called him instantly...and negotiated a deal...

My fav childhood piece is back in my collection. Merry Christmas all

Gumtree is a battle ground I was lucky I called him the instant he had put it on.

Gumtree is like eBay when it comes to timing. You'd have to be on it all day refreshing it waiting for that deal to briefly PPP up. Anyone who has the patience to do this deserves goodies like this.

Waited most of the year to pick up a 3PO moc, finally got one! Not impressed which the packaging but he's in s safe place now

Just won this on eBay looking forward to receiving it

Mark, congrats with those press and preview items mate, they look awesome. Especially the Star Wars one. Stunning!

Sweet purchases again guys.

Picked up my 90th MOC with the addition of the Power Droid.
Logray was from the 50+ mocs from FB. Was hoping it was an upgrade to my Kenner one.. but they are both in the same condition.. oh well Logray focus coming up.. lol.

Congrats on the Power Droid. A little bummed I sold mine now.

Getting closer buddy :shock:

I must have got back before everyone else but I can definitely say that was one of the best farthest froms I've ever been to - I've never seen that many mocs in one room.

I did disgustingly well today and really got some milestone purchases:

Gorgeous gammy to bolster the growing jabbas goon run



Clipper a wing pilot to complete my trilogo pilot run



A couple of loosies


A couple more loosies. I'm so happy I don't need to find any more of these annoying guns.


Another CAP-2 from the charity auction.

This one looks like a euro varient if anyone knows what it is please let me know

Kenner shipping box, big thanks to marc coinnut, im really happy with this one


And finally something i never thought I'd own, thanks so much to NickIOW for this. I'm over the moon.


And I'm spent.
