I thought you had it to be honest but when Mike said you passed I couldn't really not buy it

I agree, £37 was an absolute bargain for this one.

Bought this on ebay a few days ago. Already had a nice DSD cardback, so set about merging the two, to make one decent reseal. Pretty happy with the results.

 

[Michael Sith]

That looks the business mate, is it an original footer as well?

super job that !

 

[Cazza]

Thanks Mike. No, made it from the leftover cardback. Not quite big enough, but will do for now. How's the move going?

As you can tell im a newb! The pictures above are figures I just won from vinted. Paid £70 for all of them. I will have some duplicates but its definitely a great start to my collection!

Congratulations and welcome to the hobby!
That's a great start and a good range to get on display. I'm looking forward to seeing your collection grow.
Are you going for a full complete run? If so it's always worth buying complete figures rather than trying to get the accessories later.
Happy collecting!

Nice re-seal Andy, I hadn't noticed this one until now and I think I might have an original footer for you that might work with it.

That looks excellent. Can you stop dragging your heels though and get a Vader?

Thanks Ian! A footer would be amazing- much appreciated

Well done. Are you just looking for the figures or interested in the vehicles/spaceships etc. I am going to get some prices of stuff soon, to sell.
Good luck and welcome to this forum, the people are lovely

Great start! As already mentioned though, definitely try to by complete figures if you're bothered about the accessories. More expensive and will initially take longer, but ultimately much less ballache.

 

[spongebobpruneface]

Ah right. Was planning on getting the weapons once my collection is complete but have just had a gander at the prices on eBay! Think I need a lie down now!

Just concentrating on the figures for now. I do have an AT-AT but missing it's front canons!

Yeah, it's not a race, best to start slowly and try and get completed figures if possible as suggested by Cazza. You can also post any 'wants' as you get further along and your knowledge grows. Good luck

Finally completed my first 20 Palitoy run! Been after DV for years and 3 turned up at the same time! Plumped for this one in the end- obviously had to break it out of the graded acrylic and put it back together! Everything is there, even the clear plastic that was behind the cape. It's a cut bubble. Really happy to finish the run. Only 3 of my first 20 are mocs, as I've been slowly swapping them out with reseals, open/cut bubbles etc to pay for a holiday next year

Massive congratulations on finally getting the DV Andy, amazing looking example as well!

So typical that 3 turned up at the same time and you'll have to tell me about it when I see you next. I've sent you an email about a DSD footer but so good to see th first 12 complete now

[Cazza]

Thanks Ian. Yeah, we need a proper catch up I'll check my emails...

*Just checked- not had an email...

Wow nice one.

 

[Clarkspie&chips]

So pleased for you Andy, what an achievement. He looks like a stunner and the full run is spectacular.

 

[Cazza]

Thanks fellas!

Many congratulations, Andy! It's not an easy thing to accomplish, and they look fabulous all together like that, so very well done!
