Latest Modern Acquisitions

[Collins1987]

That's a good bargain you all got there

This is my latest pickup, got it from a guy in America for just over £60 with postage

Nice! Greedo and Sandtrooper seam to be still available in some of the online shops here, but Leia is long gone. And did you have to pay any customs for this as I assume it was declared as a gift?

My local TRU had Leia still available

No worries mate, working until about 5 but can look then as its only down the road. I guess postage for 4 would be £10-15 as the weight will go over the 2KG for anything cheaper. LMK anyway buddy.

No I didn't have to pay any customs. Was listed as sand trooper with the exact price on the side. I'm not sure how its decided if import tax is added but luckily I didn't have to pay

It seems to be luck of the draw and if the man with the calculator is having a bad day or not :evil:

I went down to my local Tesco today and they had about 10 Tie Fighters. I got one of them for a tenner.
Also picked up 3 shopping bags with different designs for £1 each.

 

[goonio]

My local tesco had loads of the Ties - will check again tonight as might grab one – promised myself I would not collect the Ships after I bought the huge Black Series Tie!

 

[eloiasia]

Managed to grab some older BS figures, still hunting for few ones from 2013 with the orange strip but I think these can be only sourced from ebay which I am trying to avoid, so the ones I am still looking for are Luke Pilot, Leia Boushh, R2D2, Boba Fett, Hun, Luke Bespin, Palpatine and Obi one
So today I got these in

and actually I have to say even though it seams like rip off paying 20 pounds for sucha small figure ,Yoda it's my favorite one from the ones I own so far

And Darth Vader, I know it has his flaws ,especially his eyes seam to be a bit oversized, but generally is a decent figure with great material cape

And I have Luke Jedi and Sandtrooper (blue) on their way, also I ordered KO Darth Maul from China around 2 weeks ago so I hope it turns out one day

My very first post in here in 10 years. Probably my last, but here goes...

Thanks to Coliins1987 I now have the last Empire magazine with toy to complete my run:-

Jason

 

[tobedesu]

^ For a couple of weeks all I could find was the Rey and Finn covers whilst hloding out for an elusive Han and Chewie one. Came across a Phasma cover so snapped it up then got the Han one a few days after at last.
Now wish I'd got the Rey one as well.
Oh well.
Empire always does good covers.

 

[grinchy]

Great empire covers, i only have the han and chewie and the ren exclusive, find it hard to display magazines
Picked up this vader on ebay, its the exclusive from woolworths from 96, missing the sticker on the front of the starcase but apart from that its in good shape

Another one of my long list of wants and less than a tenner to, bargain!

 

[Jediknight3263827]

Picked up the resistance x-wing for a nice reduced price of £15 from ASDA

 

[lejackal]

Can't quite believe the Mrs spotted this before I did and actually agreed to buy it for the boys new room........
