I did, arrived in a jiffy bag all crushed up.........Not impressed, and sadly not going to bother as much as I want one.

Glad yours turned out ok.

I'm sorry to hear that.
I'd read horror stories of Amazon orders arriving in jiffy bags and packets, but decided to take a gamble.
This arrived in a very sturdy box, I assume it's all down to who packs it?
Can you not return for replacement or refund?

I've got one on the way along with the two Bounty Hunters. God knows what sort of state they'll be in.

Another little addition for the VC Phantom Menace run, yes I know hes getting a re-release for some reason but id like to try and get some of my favourites in unpunched condition. If the re-release gets a difference card back image id probably get another, who doesn't like Maul. :lol:

Dont think ill get the entire run of the VC Ep1 line but who knows.

These will not be to everyone liking but.... I really wanted a set of the Ghost Crew, but n decent cards.... enter custom cards.... the quality is amazing and well worth it, in my opinion anyway.

Ill admit, its not something id normally be interested in but I have to say they do indeed look nice. Would be good for figures we have loose, and want to create some sort of display. Associating the figures with relevant imagery and so forth does look good and this does seem like a very nice option.


The concept stuff does look very nice too, and a custom Mara Jade? :p :p :p :p :p :p Tasty.

For sure. I have used him for things like Jabbas dancers and others that came in deferent packaging.

For EP1 the Sebulba figure is next on my list.

It was a very nervous moment opening this, but thankfully it's arrived in one piece.

Fingers crossed for the Bounty Hunter set.

Sweet, better condition than mine.

So, because I have no patience I dived in for this Naboo Starship.... more fool me.
To be fair the ship itself is fine, one internal sticker lifting a little, but overall not bad. The outer box is shabby at best but I was surprised to find the box inners were all there and the used sticker sheet and instructions, so overall OK. Until I opened the battery boxes...... duck it's the leakage was big.
I have asked the seller for some money back since he described it as 'great condition' and fingers crossed with some cleaning and drying it will come to life, depends on how much leaked behind the battery box.
Anyway - one to partially tick off the list.

I won't post images of my haul from Chiffy. I suspect they have been posted up here before, but I have a few other items incoming over the next few weeks.

Some good pick ups monkey, hopefully the battery corrosion will clean off easily well done on picking one of those up finally. Defiantly slobby on the sellers part, no excuse for that at all.

That Maul, dont think I have come across or seen one of those before seems like a ton of versions out there that I haven't seen.

As for me, this little sod arrived at last. I had it on pre order since last year......
I'm not going to actively hunt for the white boxed version, tons about and all are likely on ebay for scalper prices. If I find one at retail (it happens) then great but sod buying one at those dumb prices.

Couple more.
Batteries have died in one (understandable) but one still works. Very yellow packaging though.
