Two more bits
Only two more to arrive in order now and then time for a break - gone a bit OTT :)

Received my Gentle Giant 1/6 Scale Ahsoka Tano mini-bust. Absolutely love this piece! Now if we could just get a full figure version.

I got Black Series Darth Vader and Stormtrooper for my daughters - They're going down quite well.

But what has gone down a STORM is Princess Leia Endor gear: Forces of Destiny line! Star Wars dolls effectively. About 8 quid from Forbidden planet and exactly what they wanted. Its got a doll (leia) costumes (a change of clothes between Endor poncho and Leia Ewok Village dress) and even COMES WITH A TEDDY BEAR! (Well Wicket, but they don't know better)

We even watched the Wicket/Leia scene from ROTJ so they understood. V sweetly they Jumped out their skin on each biker scout shot and when one sneaks up.

My dastardly plan to turn them into SW fans continues.... under their mothers nose. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

A few more as I close in fast o a man EP 1 collection.

The two packs are amazing - and the eBay seller even included star cases - happy days.

The creature packs likewise, lovely.

The figures a little sleds so, but only 5 so don't care so much, the mails are nearer cards but the two pack is ok, certainly for the price.

Only a few bonus Droid packs to go now. I guess I will end up going after the pit droids as well at some point.

Need to draw a little breath now though....

My sons B day yesterday, picked a few items up for him, but he collects modern as well, ordered the 2 celebration figures for him, when they arrived, was shocked how big they are and how good the sculpts are, they are very cool so we are going to set up a modern display

Really like these 2

Lucky lad. :D
I wanted the Maul but not the Obi Wan, everyone was only selling as a pair, so I missed out on him.

You're not wrong, they really nailed the art work on Ep1 cards.
It's taken 20 years to appreciate it though! :roll:

Ep1 all day long.
Dark black card with splash's of red and Maul in the top corner.
It doesn't get much better as far as art work is concerned.
IMO :wink:

So - general question what are the vintage collection figures so damn expensive for modern figures. The phantom menace ones I am going after are costing an arm and a leg. I think all 15 or so will cost more that the original 50...

Yet more modern incoming...

Nice set and the figures are so vibrant. Very cool and I think the fake aged card image is cool, although I am not sure entirely needed. All the same I Hope we get more and these as this could be a lovely sub-line...

Well, after working like a complete nut case over the past six months decided August was treat time so checked out some Entertainer stores once a week. Some have already gone to a few collectors, and in the process of doing a few trades with others.


Not pictured is the 6inch Tarkin and Jaina Solo for £5 each from TK maxx, I watched the local lizard(scalper) pick them up and then try to hide them whilst he was clearing the rails of clothes to ebay.... :lol: Wish Tarkin came with a side arm of some sort but ill forgive Hasbro due to the inclusion of a nice medical droid. :p

Nice pick ups monkey, really liking those vc cards. Keep looking at doing a run of these but need to finish off Solo and Rogue one first, kick myself for not picking up a Maul a while back, not sure what I was thinking at the time (ok I clearly wasnt thinking :lol: ). Are you coming across ep1 vc cards often?
