Latest Acquisitions

Gorneesh that Lando Skiff looks proper mint, nice pick up fella.

Couple more mocs arrived to go with the Palitoy ROTJ run. Overpaid on one and underpaid on the other so I think they evened themselves out. Ackbar's a bit yellow but the last few I've seen are all the same. The Stormie has also been packed with 2 blasters which I never noticed till it arrived. The catalogues one of the ones that was given out in toy shops back in the day with the original 20 figures and vehicles.

Lee- was it you who outbid me on that catalog on eBay uk last week? £20?

Sorry Grant. The last couple of those that have been on have ended at weird times or I forgot to bid, so I got the mrs to bid for me!
I'll keep my eye out for another.

Well congrats on the MOC's but your new catalog sucks :wink:

Very Nice MOC Lee

phreatobite - nice alternative carded there.

Gorneesh - That clipper seems to be in very very nice condition, never seen a clipper in hand, great buy.

Ryan - you dog!, - want it want it want it

Jeff - those portfolios are the nuts m8, like pokemon - gota get them all! :mrgreen:

Lars - Yes I wanted to do a small & supposedly easy to put together great looking run of MOC's that fit my interest, & 77 back droids seemed to be the obvious choice for me, + the fact I have not seen anyone else do one & it ties in with another MOC droids run I am working on in the long run.

Lee - that catalogue rocks, want one myself, MOC's aint bad either

My latest find which I have to say I am rather chuffed with, as I was very sceptical at first as I have never seen this figure in this baggie & from what I know its not known in this baggie type (ESB-c) but on arrival its legit, so I am really stoked

Nice Ackbar Lee

Top Drawer baggie again Frank! 8)

And Frank, congrats on the Baggie. Can't believe there's still combinations that are new to you. You live and learn 8)

Lee77 - nice MOC and I love that Catalog

Frunkstar - that looks a nice tidy looking baggie

Great Stormie and Ackbar Lee

That 3PO looks top notch Frank

I might have to get one of those portfolios and a Palitoy catalogue, they definitely look "the nuts".

Nice one guys & @ Lee - thats why I bloody love baggies!, always new ones crawling out of the woodwork & so much is not yet know about Euro baggies & I have even found a few things new out about Kenner issued ones like the 3p0 above that is not know in the SWCA baggie guide, I find it all quite exciting TBH, I have another one on the way that I have never seen in the baggie type its coming in, very beat up but cheap, so I am happy

I have no bloody idea just how many baggie/figure variations/combinations are out there, but its sure fun finding out, already well over the 300 mark, with maybe just as many still to go :shock:

awesome additions everyone impressive baggie haul frank! ryan nice r5d4! nice lando clipper also! lee cool mocs

Congrats once again to you Lee. They look up to your usual standard buddy. Top drawer.


Hats off to you Frank. You really do have a knack for finding the rarities when it comes to baggies. Another triumph!

I dont know why but I have visions of everything being sealed in baggies at your house. Sitting down to dinner and taking the cutlery out of a tape sealed Hong Kong baggie or something! :wink:

Not much to show here but after 28 months of hunting and collecting the last 3 issues of UK Marvel Star Wars comics have arrived and the 1977-1986 set is complete.

I am still missing the last 6 Ewok issues but that is not a priority.

The issues started with:

001-117- Star Wars Weekly
118-139- Empire Strikes Back Weekly
140-158- Empire Strikes Back Monthly
159-171- Star Wars Monthly
001-155- Return of the Jedi

There are also 7 Specials and 9 Annuals.

None of these are rare and you can get any if your willing to pay the price. I made a rule that I would spend no more than £1 for an issue. This rule wavered towards the end as i was desperate to finish the set.

The harder ones to find from my experience are the latter ESB Monthly, SW Monthly and the last few ROTJ. I guess that because the line is winding down and there is greater release from the movies.

These have been great fun to track down and a great cheap side project. I won't bore you with 342 photographs but heres the end of the journey

Roll on tonights draw.

Good Luck everyone

Nice one Grant - I'd love to read all of those again - I have a few lying about, together with other comincs like match, shoot, beano and dandy - takes you right back
