Latest Modern Acquisitions

Bought this last week from a charity shop, dated 2004, paid 3 quid!!! , made a display stand, just got to paint it black then display it

And some more - cool pack and a couple of non SW items I couldn't resist…

 

[monkey_roo]

Cover Ops trooper - one of the more expensive ROTS figures at a staggering £12

 

[monkey_roo]

And this is the 500th figure (not my 500th I will refrain for posting that number….) second time I've owned this one - kinda fun. I think in 2005 they seemed to do a few Vader exclusives.

Next bundle in
I think these worked out at maybe 4 a figure…. A few duplicates but bulk increase in the run.

 

[monkey_roo]

Just cleaned and boxed everything so far…. I like the cards and new bubbles, but man they are a pain to put in boxes due to the shape.

Two more

And again…

I'm starting to collect these, looking at nice little collection I think.

IndemandToys have a whole bunch of those SAGA figures and others in stock (I just ordered a bunch of ROTS from them)

I've always liked this packaging, never owned any though as it looks a right bugger to store.

 

[monkey_roo]

A few more

 

[monkey_roo]

And more

Nice pick ups Matt.

Kinda got addicted to these

 

[monkey_roo]

Nearing the end here I think I am five figures short of the 90 basic figures released - I am sure I will look at deluxe and multi packs etc…. Sadly I've had to remove the star cases to fit on one shelf - time to move the tv and give them
More space…

 

[monkey_roo]

Two more

 

[lejackal]

I've never even seen them before

 

[monkey_roo]

They were a 2005 Walmart Exclusives - I believe they then re-used them as a pair in the Comic-2-Pack line

 

[monkey_roo]

So the very last figure needed to have a complete basic line arrived today - this was a right bugger to find - had to come from Italy and despite some dodgy packaging (soft envelope) it came OK.

I have a few of the deluxe packs now as well so figure I'll get those as well - the clone trooper 3 packs are a pain to find… anyway 1 Tan Wookie to enjoy, and side by side with his twin.

 

[monkey_roo]

Got to share this one - it's awesome and now means I have to find the STAP when it comes out next month…. Direct for Hasbro Pulse so no scalper prices either

 

[monkey_roo]

This pair arrived today - been waiting an age for both - lovely jabba and finally all the dinobots in 86 form (not Sw but not worth a new post)

 

[monkey_roo]

one of my biggest collecting regrets was selling these back in the day - I had all 13…. Figure it might take a while to get them back again (mostly because people seem to want stupid money) but I am sure I'll get there…

2 down 11 to go.

 

[kabuchi7]

This arrived the other day and i love it! The box art looks fab!

The original Jabba playset was one of my favs as a kid and i might be tempted to buy another one of these so i can open it up and get it on the display shelf

 

[monkey_roo]

The Jabba really does pull on the 80's nostalgia string a bit - looks great on the shelf.

 

[kabuchi7]

Yes i agree with you there did you open yours @monkey_roo ?

 

[monkey_roo]

Ha - not a chance - sealed in its bix forever
I just can't open things other than Lego - which does raise a Schrödinger's toy collection question really - is there a toy in there or not???

 

[kabuchi7]

I always open lego too, although i do use the old hairdryer and knife technique
