Awesome forum guys! Noob to the forum AND collecting SW toys, i've been a huge SW fan since the 70's and now I want to start a collection of SW toys but I was a bit overwhelmed by all the info when I first started doing research. Not any more lol since I found this forum, not only are the posts very informative but also very good natured and humorous. Thanx for all the info guys, you will definitley be seeing more posts from me and i will post pics of my first purchases(hopefully MIB M.Falcon and X-wing). Cheers

Thanks to Liam - Dark Sith Lord for introducing me to this site for UK collectors, I actually registered over a year ago but forgot I had an account :?

My name is Paul and I live in the Cotswolds, Gloucestershire.

I have been collecting Star Wars seriously for about 2 years, but as a kid started in 1979, but then sold my collection

Collection is quite varied

VINTAGE
Have quite a few Tri logo's, Palitoys, 3 Harberts, but only 4 kenners as I prefer the other 3 types of cardback but they are so expensive - especially the Harberts.

LEGO
Quite selective on Lego have;
The Death Star 10188
Wampa Cave and Snowspeeder
Jabbas Palace (the new one)
Desert Skiff (the new one)
3 of the planet series

Want - Palpatines Arrest and the Rancor Pitt when it comes out

KUBRICKS
Some carded figures, early bird set, 3 box sets, few loose chase figures and the DX 3 Tatooine set with landspeeder.

NEW VINTAGE LINE FROM 2010
I like this modern line from Hasbro, just pick up MOC figures I want, not interested in every single figure just the ones that appeal to me.

Will post some pictures of my collection soon

Happy Collecting

Paul
