Hi all. I started collecting seriously about four years ago after harbouring the desire to do so for about 10 years before that (Thought about it a lot, just never got around to getting started, too busy with work, having a kid etc.). Anyway, when I first started up I knew there would be...

My recent ebay watches: Biker Scout - sold for £63 Bib fortuna - sold for £34 I am putting collecting on hold until this artificially inflated bubble we are in goes pop (if indeed it ever does).

I wouldn't say that Diamond, you started because you wanted to collect the figures, same as everyone on here. But you too have noticed that the prices are crazy, it's a real shame that people who just want to collect for the love of the hobby/ childhood reasons now seem to be seriously priced...

It certainly has as far as prices are concerned, I just had my eye on a minty Biker Scout on fleabay Ended up selling for £63!...£63!...For a Biker Scout. I mean, they are a great figure, and I really want to add a minty one to my collection, but not at £63! and it was not even a Ledy or short...

That's pretty cool to be fair. Certainly has some novelty factor about it.

If prices keep going up like they are doing, I may need to reconsider finishing my mint loose run at all!

Yeah I am. I haven't bought anything this year, I got up to about 42 or so out of a mint loose run and ran out of steam mid 2019. I fully intend to pick it up again at some point, but prices just seem to be climbing all the time. In particular the last 17 are going crazy, they will definitely...

Absolutely stunning! This is as good as it gets, the first figure I ever owned, the one that started it all for me, and I still have it to this day (albeit not carded :lol: ). I hope he found a good home.

No thanks Disney!

Falcon and Luke Bespin. Never got a Falcon, because that was a bigger "Birthday" or "Christmas" list item according to my parents, still never got one though (even though it went on the list about 10 times). Could never find a Luke Bespin for some reason. I hunted high and low for ages in toy...

I have read that Rey is Palpatine's grand-daughter???

I was really stoked for these when I first saw the U.S. versions. I was on the fence as to whether I should cancel the order when I saw the European versions, I now know I made the right choice by cancelling, they look hideous. I just don't understand why they would run a MOC retro line, and...

Where did you see these? All the U.K. ones I have seen are pre-order for August (Forbidden planet even says September 12th, maybe they know something no-one else does?).

I thought the Ep1 figures were good, I bought a few myself, never with the intention of them increasing in value though. I opened all of them, my son has them now :D
