And so it begins......

Indeed.



an amazing score drew i bet you were almost shaking when you were taking the stuff home.. especially at that price.

You are now hooked, but as Pete says sell stuff that doesnt really float your boat and buy stuff you want,,, but ask they guys on here before ,, like emiel will steer you on the boxed stuff his house is built of mint boxed SW vehicles, he even has a room with no windows with the ultra mint stuff in it,, which are so mint he doesnt even look at them with his eyes but only through CCTV. :shock:

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Nice haul there mate
The yak face staff isn't hard to find, I managed to find a complete Nikto with an original staff for cheaper than loose staffs were going for :wink:

Drew this is great work. A bargain price too, what a steal. I love those sorts of lots, for me thats where alot of the excitement comes from. Its great to see so much of it all in one place. Here are a couple of hauls I have had over the years. I think the guys on these boards ended up with pretty much everything from these pics bar a few bits I kept for myself. I think Id already sold quite alot of stuff when I took these photos. Maybe we should turn this into a thread called "Big Hauls." I know other people must have some great ones to share too.

Keep it up the good work Drew! Im off to post an ad in the local paper! :lol: :lol:

Buddy that is a wonderful score...in all my years of collecting that has never happened to me, bloody hope it will though.

Well done my good man.

UPDATE

Figures are shown at start of thread

Was this someone's childhood collection Drew? If not it may be worth checking the weapons for repro's as the Amanaman staff breaking made an alarm bell ring with me. The genuine staffs are usually a lot more bendable than the repro staffs, which are often brittle.

 

[e30318is]

I am fairly sure landos blaster is repro.

 

[drew]

I have had my doubt that this was the sellers childhood collection to be honest, I sometime thought this guy probably have found it in some sort of house clearance, or carboot and sold it to me. But in the end i am not really complaining as i have got it for a bargaining price. I am no expert on the repro weapons so will need some guidance in near time.

 

[e30318is]

Dude you got an amazing deal- but some of the weapons are modern repro.

I wouldnt worry though as from what you have said price wise you could sell yak face and the Ewok village and the remainder would t cost you anything

 

[drew]

If the weapons are modern repro what a shame really as if they were genuine vintages it would have been an ultimate score. Ah well cheeky git for saying they were his childhood toys. But you are right ed sell yak face and ewok village i have my money back so it is still a score in a way.

 

[Capetown]

These are great reference sites for distinguishing original from repro weapons.

I am fairly sure landos blaster is repro.

Lando just has Squid Head's Gun, who has a Smugglers Blaster - Snag has Lando's gun

The guns look legit to me

:lol: Apologies if characters have the wrong guns on their hands i am not 100percent who owns what guns just yet

 

[spoons]

no need for apologies :lol:

I see no reason to doubt the sellers story, if you need to know which gun goes with each character take a look here
