[QUOTE="Shaky_BobaFett, post: 381133, member: 6823"] So a few of you who know me or have read the few posts I've written last year will know I started collecting in the summer last year and starred out with a loose run. It was meant to start off with the first 12 and carry on right up untill the last 17 but I simply found it a struggle and financially it was never going to happen so I changed my focus to collecting just the first 21. I've now just finished that and have moved onto a couple of other focuses. First one is to collect some Mocs, not just any but certain ones I like. Also the cheaper end so I'm looking at the more "beaten up ", few sticker marks, creases or cracks to bubbles. I like to call them " cards with history and charater!" Well this all started with Iain Sanderson who had a bit of a beaten up Rees Yees, although it's bubble was intact and as clear as I've seen on a moc. This Rees has alot to answer for as over the last 3 -4 months I've gain a nice little collection, mainly broughy through Iain again who has looked after me well with some good Mocs at good prices . I've meet neil through Iain too and managed to prize a few Mocs off him too. Then a few more off the forum sales thread with Andy Clarke supplying me with a Zuckuss and my much desired Chewie. Then as I dreamt of owning a Star Wars 20/21 back just b4 the Xmas holidays Iain ( that bloke keeps popping up don't he!) again on the forums sale thread had put up a R5 21 back .... Well that was it. A quick panic as I logged in and tapped away on the I phone ( other good devices readily available!) I managed to message him and then the wait..... Well after 5 minutes it came back the words I was hoping " there all yours " .. Yes I had done it, I actually had a Star Wars carded figure heading my way and along with a nice ROTJ Jawa. I will include a couple of pictures of these 2 purchases along with my current collection . I hope I haven't bored any of yeh but as u can tell I'm ready bloody excited and just wanted to say thanks to the forum. I don't really post much but I've found through using it , there's so much super information and made some good contacts and some super friends along the way. I have to give a good shout out to the Rebellion podcast crew who I think are ace with there witty banter and info and interviews . I hope I'll be posting again with my loose 21 run but waiting on the arrival of the Oragana blaster so when it arrives I will do. Thanks to all those who have helped and I'll speak soon!
