Latest Modern Acquisitions

They were a 2005 Walmart Exclusives - I believe they then re-used them as a pair in the Comic-2-Pack line

So the very last figure needed to have a complete basic line arrived today - this was a right bugger to find - had to come from Italy and despite some dodgy packaging (soft envelope) it came OK.

I have a few of the deluxe packs now as well so figure I'll get those as well - the clone trooper 3 packs are a pain to find… anyway 1 Tan Wookie to enjoy, and side by side with his twin.

Got to share this one - it's awesome and now means I have to find the STAP when it comes out next month…. Direct for Hasbro Pulse so no scalper prices either

This pair arrived today - been waiting an age for both - lovely jabba and finally all the dinobots in 86 form (not Sw but not worth a new post)

one of my biggest collecting regrets was selling these back in the day - I had all 13…. Figure it might take a while to get them back again (mostly because people seem to want stupid money) but I am sure I'll get there…

2 down 11 to go.

This arrived the other day and i love it! The box art looks fab!

The original Jabba playset was one of my favs as a kid and i might be tempted to buy another one of these so i can open it up and get it on the display shelf

The Jabba really does pull on the 80's nostalgia string a bit - looks great on the shelf.

Yes i agree with you there did you open yours @monkey_roo ?

 

[monkey_roo]

Ha - not a chance - sealed in its bix forever
I just can't open things other than Lego - which does raise a Schrödinger's toy collection question really - is there a toy in there or not???

 

[kabuchi7]

I always open lego too, although i do use the old hairdryer and knife technique

 

[monkey_roo]

Sadly the box is a bit beat up - shipped via Amazon from US….

But cracking model

That's superb!
