Managed to grab a 6" black series Stormtrooper the other day. .. and at retail price too in Toymaster. .

Had to go all the way over to the Isle of Wight to get it though. Luckily had a short break over there.

Lee.. if you do want to shift that mini Fett... I may be interested.

A MISB Lego Sandcrawler 10144, thanks to Steve at UKG for making a custom acrylic case.

Isn't this is the wrong section? Sorry but i cannot stand the coloured brick shite and that is the reason i don't go into the lego section. I'm sure this is a nice item but please don't subject me to it in here if possible, especially when there is a thread dedicated to it.

Awesome pieces Rich! Congrats 8)

kool haul there! how much did you pay for the b wing and more importantly how much did you get the falcon for? wonder if mines picked up any value lol

 

[Stronghold]

B-wing came from my uncle who lives out in Oklahoma, so the B-Wing worked out at 10 quid with 16 quid postage, the falcon i got off a classified add in my local paper, he had it up for 150 but i was able to knock the price down to £110 cash, that being said i feel very lucky with both prices I have seen the legacy falcons go for over 300 quid boxed on the bay but i was not going to tell him that

Now that's what I'm talking about - superb mate!
Been after a VC B Wing for ages, refuse to pay the over inflated prices when I know how much they are selling for in k-mart!
Heading over to America later this year and VC B Wing and VC Millennium Falcon are top of my shopping list so I am bloody jealous of your latest haul :mrgreen:

Few additions to my daughters collection

Modern Jabba and dewback, really impressed with these. She's displaying them with a mix of her modern and vintage figures.

The rancor is one of the 1st SW toys we ever bought her - I swear she used to drag it around Asda in a little pink dress Looks great underneath Jabba

She's running out of shelf space so hung her TIE's in front of the corresponding movie poster, will paint the hooks white this weekend so you don't notice them as much.

Brilliant mate! I wish my daughters ( or sons for that matter lol ) would take an interest.
PS Pick me up 1 of those B Wings when you go the the states please you lucky so and so

Daughter fancied a break from studying yesterday so we made the trip to our nearest Forbidden Planet and came home with this lot

Stormie is really nice, shame there was only one as we want a few of them. Mission series R2 and 3PO are pretty good but R2's paint app isn't the best, was the only one left so couldn't compare it to others.

 

[db94]

Just finished that last post and had another delivery - 5 Koto Stormies that my daughter had ordered
The Stormtroopers and Sandtroopers are for her display but she treated me to the Sergeant as an early fathers day present

Can't help but smile when you are opening these things - boxes and packaging are just so nice

I love the Koto Star Wars line, just wish they would go back to the bigger scale.
I also had the Sandtrooper's on order but cancelled them as I got fed up with waiting for them.

 

[grinchy]

lots of cool modern stuff, love the koto statues, only have a couple but they are great
Added more astro droids to my shelf, love these guys

and my trooper and vader shelf got a few new additions

added a couple more 12 inch figures to

my other modern shelves are full and i still have more to add

 

[db94]

That is a great looking display and I have spotted so many things that I want to add to my collection :mrgreen:
Absolutely love your droids - I'm putting together an R2 focus and after looking at you pics I've added a few more things to my want list

Same with your modern collection, I pretty much started writing down things you have that I want - doesn't help that you have such a good eye for displaying (never wanted a Bespin Luke until I saw your one hanging down, same for the Ben and his table complete with Holo Leia)

But the highlight for me was finding someone else that mixes Mork with Star Wars

 

[grinchy]

Glad you like the display, its all really crammed in there, but i like it like that, i love the droids, there are so many variations out there, and mork is cool, i have the mini mork in half his egg to , i'm working on an eighties shelf to but need more goodies for that, heman, ateam etc

 

[chiffy]

Nanoo nanoo, Shazbot, Mork calling Orsen :lol:

 

[Dark Sith Lord]

Love those droids Grinchy 8)
