Latest Acquisitions

[Ruby2511]

My Vectis purchase arrived today. I got into a bidding war with this one, but having been on the lookout for one for ages I decided before the auction I was going to win this whatever it took. Possibly my favourite MOC purchase this year, I think this cardback looks particularly gorgeous offerless and logoless.

Well done Edd, was waiting to see what it was you were after.

As for me, fessing up time. This was a massive indulgence and mid-life crisis purchase. Hit 40 this year, and been doing lots of box ticking/bucket list type stuff. I saw this weeks ago, but from the 2 big auctions they have sold at before, I knew I was never spending anywhere near that price. When the bidding opened, I think it went straight to final bids, and I couldn't believe the price, so I bid once to get highest, telling myself if there is another bid I won't bid any more. Shock horror, I won. This and the POTF Nikto went for WELL below previous sale prices. One of my top 2 favourite MOCs acquired. The other being a LEDY ERG. I believe that makes 7 AT AT Driver MOCS in my focus.

Some amazing items have been acquired in the last few pages, congratulations.
Stunning pair of MOCs from Edd and Stormcrab from the Vectis auction and that first 12 stand is so iconic; looks great in the acrylic case.

If I have another 10 to 15 years left in me, I might be able to get to about 25% of Nick's collection! :lol:

Edd, that is a superb edition to the collection! Tough MOC and stunningly beautiful being so clean with no logos or offers as u say 8) Lovely with the Tri-logo bubble type too 8)

Well done.

My pic ups from FF;

Many thanks to Gary Smith for this amazing reseal example of a 41 Vader :!: The left side is factory sealed so it was carefully opened on the right side and then lined back up and resealed v cleanly as u can see 8) Sadly it's missing it's footer but hey :!: It's good enough for me and I normally only collect MOC.

Secondly many thanks to Marc Hockley who got me this nice cast & crew exclusive Ep 8 top.
