Latest Acquisitions

[monkey_roo]

Now I need to measure up and find a case for these chaps - and maybe a few figures to go with them......

 

[R.P.D.]

From today finally got another carded POTF figure

Nice MOC mate

I bidded on an auction the other day for one star wars item that was amongst a load of other star wars bits and bobs, Got what I wanted and the rest is now on Ebay cheap as chips to get rid.

What was it?

Good work, Edd. Hard to find a good loose DSD.

Fett1972, love that. Is it a proof? Is it graded? If so, worth giving the grading company and/or seller a shout.

What was it?

White Tie Fighter 78

I don't know if this counts as a latest acquisition but I couldn't think where else to post it. This is my first attempt at some AI art using ChatGPT, I asked it to create an image of Jawas playing football in a desert with two suns (Tatooine) and after a few tweaks, this was the result! I thought it was a really cool picture so got it printed on a 40x30cm canvas which only cost £15. I now have a unique 'artwork' hanging on my office wall

New here but this is awesome! Thanks for posting it. I shared it with my son who used to work at the Lucas ranch many years ago.

I found this droid at the local charity shop. Not flat head screw and very wobbly joints, but I couldn't resist his dullness for 5 euros.

This was a nice surprise, one of my 2026 goals found before 2025 is out! I had been looking for one of these for a month or so and while they are not that rare, it was very hard for me to resist buying a lesser condition copy just to complete the set faster. But luckily I saw this mint copy come up for sale a few hours after it was posted for a fair price:



This completes my ex-rental set of the films on VHS



And here's my new small VHS collection: 1984-1986 ex-rentals, 1988 first home releases, and the 1994 digitally remastered versions which I've owned since new.



Can I resist buying any more?!

Really nice mate, always preferred the bigger rental boxes to the standard.

This definitely feels like Christmas 1980, man I love the ESB logo/box art.

The Tauntaun and Laser Cannon were the last two I needed to complete my Palitoy and ESB shelf. The Probe droid is just brilliant, never had one as a kid but I'm making up for it now - my wife is getting fed up with me randomly making the noise, she's going to love it when I put batteries in the blaster

As a bonus the Spider-Man annual is from 1980 as well

Not SW my latest addition to my Indy Collection

 

[Michael Sith]

ESB Catalogue and a nice minty Chewie

 

[edd_jedi]

Another VHS for the collection, ex-rental copy of the first Ewoks movie. I like how the box design is similar to Return of the Jedi, and it also has the same moulded CBS Fox case as the main films.

Got home today after a week away with work and found this waiting. Met Brian (as a few us us probably did/have) and Farthest From back in 2024 and again last year and I remember him showing a few sample pages and images in his talk and it all looked great then - I can safely say it looks even better now - I so hope folks grabbed on, its a real treasure trove of photos and stories.

 

[Cazza]

Mine arrived the other day. It looks great- looking forward to a proper read, when I get a mo!

 

[Kenner76]

A few antique store finds in the last month. I grabbed the Jabba glass and this nice micro tie fighter (just missing the pilot).

Having picked up a Rancor and Jabba before Christmas it was predictable that I'd get a few figures to create some sort of scene. Got to love a Luke Jedi though - what a figure...

 

[StarWarsFan]

More additions to my Indy collection

 

[StarWarsFan]

Sorry just realised I had uploaded them photos meant these sorry. Not with it ATM

 

[Pomse2001]

Yesterday I was visiting a store in denmark that sell used toy. They had a case with star wars figures, most of them was ROTJ and beaters and no weapons, but I found this 20 figures that was nice and one of the dengar is a PBP

 

[Frunkstar]

Nice lot there, you'll have a good works crew with all those Ugnaughts

 

[Kenner76]

I recently added these two items to my collection. I love that some kid carefully corrected the error on the "Ken Kenobi" card with a blue pen.

 

[Frunkstar]

good find that probot droid with the stickers db

Thanks frank for the kind words, I think I got all the ugnaughts from the box in the shop
