[Jimi Woolley]

Been a while since I've posted in here. Been picking up a few loosie's for my Imperial Army & also a few complete figures to rob of their weapons to complete the few incomplete figures from the big childhood collection I bought recently. Here's the army (actually added 4 more but not taken a pic yet!)

Thanks to Jamie Brown (fuzzy buzzy) I've also added a Kenner Droid Factory R2 to go with my Palitoy loose one & the one from my boxed Palitoy Droid Factory

Looks awesome mate. Limelight update soon please!

Limelight update will definitely be coming Jez. Actually need to update all my LL for Yoda, loose and MOC, the MOC one is a big update. Haven't done one in nearly 2 years I think.

Picked up an old French advert. Thought it was pretty cool that there's a VC and cloth cape Jawa on it.

 

[Mr. Bob A. Feet]

My giddiness forgot this is more about vintage and not about fabulous acrylic so removed the post!

Back on topic and loved the poster Ollie, cool seeing both Jawas in an advert. Can't wait to finish decorating so I can start getting some SW artwork up!

[timbo72]

Awesome proof Lee

 

[theforceuk]

That proof is very nice, all the rest are not to shabby either. :shock:

 

[Princess Raya]

Holy smokes Batman!!!

I take 5 short weeks off to cope with the birth of me first born, and this thread has gone nuts! Just finished reading through now. Difficult to pick a favourite with all the Anaheim loot in there, but I think this does it for me most. Love the crazy foreign MOCs.

Carrying on the South American theme, I picked up this:

This thing is verging on bootleg. The stumpy little stormtrooper with no foot holes and his square blaster plus the cheaply made card back. The bubble has been stapled to the card and also reinforced with tape. Speaking to people this was common and done by the shops originally selling the figures as the bubbles were prone to falling off.

Finally completing my whistlestop tour around South America, I picked up an example of Brazils finest:

My ability to keep up with all your purchases might have been impacted by the arrival of the little rugrat, but she's not stopped me from making one or two of my own acquisitions. Have decided I want a run of the first 20 on SW cards with as much foreign variety as poss. I'm also loving all things Japanese and fear this could turn into a side focus. The Takara sculpt 3PO is way cooler than the Kenner version.

Thanks to Frank for le person de la sand. (Sorry, I reused your photo - little short on time these days)

Anyway must dash, I hear crying. Not sure if it's the sprog or the wife cos of all the money I've spent... :?
