Latest Acquisitions

[flycasual]

:? Just the easy ones now :lol:

:lol: :lol:

I'm not sure I could start a collection knowing that I would probably never complete it. Or am I just being defeatist?

 

[Joe]

If you only start collections of things you can complete easily you will get bored very quickly

90% of the fun for most is hunting and acquiring, once you complete something it doesn't take long to get bored and want to sell it off IMO. Besides, even on hard to complete "sets" you never know what can happen!

Do or do not.....


There is no try....

I hear ya Joe. The "hunting and aquiring" journey is certainly what I find the most fun. WTB threads are almost a spoiler.

Lately I've been having a similar conversation with my Mum. She thinks I'm negative, but I argue that I'm just being realistic.

Dark Sith Lord, it must be a different Vader. I can't afford those prices.

Nice burgandy cape Squid Head! I remember reading about it years ago. It was supposed to be ultra rare.

Tri Logo Fett is one of my favourites. There seems to be a lot more on ebay than when I was buying loose figures.

Well have a couple of days busy when I have no time to get on here & see how you all are getting great stuff & letting the thread run away with me & national news for outstanding strength of character - nice going Leyton!, that guy deserves every bit of abuse he gets m8 as there is simply no place for bullies in my book & hitting woman & children is a great big no no, FFS its not like he is not big enough to pick on someone grown up is it, not that that would be right either though, what ahot head, big up yourself Leyton!, sweet chewie 2 BTW only a few grand & you will have that POTF run done & dusted :lol:

& you other guys, wow simply wow, those new Jawas Ed 8) frecking coo-el!!! loving them.

Jase sweet DT bud, what a chalenging focus you have picked, hope you have deep pockets as your gona need em.

Tim - sure you will be happy in stage 2 & its about time as you need to slow down b4 you have a heart attack dude.

flycasual - nice barada!, the Vader looks like he has been on a night on the town without ever having left home :lol:

Princess Leia1978 - welcome on bard! & I am lovin the sandcrawler - shweet

Josh - cool luke bespin & nice wind up :lol:

Soren - nice addition to your focus

Lars - nice vader, learned some new things today about the clipper vaders, will share later via pm as i know I still owe you one in return

Liam - that miss card is out of sight buddy 8)

Jeff - nice loosies dude 8)

Dennis - fook me! thats some major haul!! frecking cool stuff, but have to say I am lovin the death star set.

Sure I have missed a shed load, but that's what I can remember so please excuse me if I left anyone out there.

Had my very first multi-pack from the deep end of baggie collecting with this brown box GM 2 pack, but I love it & its so minty.

The AJ has done me proud with this great addition which has opened a new can of worms regarding baggie ID's & types what with the heat seal - check it out, strange or what & a new Kenner issued baggie that needs classifying?

As you can see it came with a vintage J c Penny price tag which I have removed to inspect the seal further & boy what a find, thanks James & I know I owe you one!

Got a couple of items in the pipeline to, but they will be a while.

 

[Dublinjeff]

Great stuff Frunkstar........ 8)

 

[Lee77]

Nice loosies Dublinjeff! Absolute bargain as well. Who says collecting has to be expensive!
Frank, as always what a nice score of baggies! Can't beat a Fett Baggie! Where does the 2 pack originate from? Never seen that before! Well done.
