Those Trilogos look great cased up, Edd. Acrylic really does wipe the floor with star cases in every respect.

Iain, it's like Christmas in July! Some amazing bits and pieces there. I didn't even notice the Teebo error until you pointed it out :lol:

I was sat on the train home from CE3 on Sunday. Two items in my watch list pinged up. Having had a thoroughly excessive weekend I didn't really want to spend any more money at all, but I couldn't not have a go at this. A couple of quid over £100 (£93 + P&P) for a Palitoy 41 back Rebel Commander shows there are still good deals to be had on eBay even if they do end on Sunday evening. He's not as good as this photo makes him look but I am still chuffed to bits. The last one that went through Vectis cost £500 and although nicer was not that much nicer.

That's it now. Really. Absolutely no more. Promise.

Dan, that Luke Bespin is ridiculously nice think you got an absolute steal there. Wish I'd seen it first! :lol:

Grant, both TFPs are lovely, but I do like that Canadian 4-LOM offer card.

Childhood one?

500 600 or 1200?

No it's a very pimped up 4000, here's a fairly recent photo. I've owned this one for about 4 years now, had an A1200 back in the 90s.

After 30 years, my childhood pop-up R2-D2 is finally re-united with his lightsabre! Big thanks to Darthgulliver for helping me out.

My favourite pick ups from Celebration, all were gifts from friends so goes to show you don't have to spend big money to get enjoyment from this hobby.

The cabinet and figures are new additions for me. The cabinet was made by my brother in law, the figures mainly came from the US in a big bulk buy but also a few came from the forum here - thanks to everybody for those! 8 more to go I think.

Darren, you've got some quality pieces there. Obviously the Slave I Collector's Track coin mould is the killer piece. I had assumed these had been struck so great to see that. What's with the bubbles on the bottom half? And the Battle Beard is awesome as is the Helix-esque pencil. Great, great giveaways.

Nearly there, Max! Display looks great.

Cool display of loose figures Max, looks very smart.

Darren what are the Slave 1 silver coins, are they original prototypes from which the ones that were handed out were from???

The Helix pencil from Grants talk is quality, have mine on display

I've just read the above post :oops:
