I know it is not star wars but Iam looking for one in this condition for about 10 years or longer, most of the sellers didn´t want to ship to europe etc. so an old ebayseller where I had bought a lot of stuff in the past was able to ship this massive pile of plastic to my door should be docking in, in about 10days

My latest, and another Palitoy piece I've been after for a while, the radio controlled R2 D2 8)

Did you pick that up from eBayUK?

There was one on there for about £50 last week and it was gone when I rechecked to buy it :(

Yes, afraid that was me

Yes, I saw that too and could only think how cool if they had taken the model size and reapplied it for a star destroyer set.. or a death star escape set.

Impressive, most impressive.

How much?

No, the wife would kill me, and I don't even collect that stuff.

But it's just so big........
 
I remember the Domark ESB game on my Spectrum +3 back in the day. Same epic picture on the C64 packaging with Vader's head and the AT-AT's on Hoth to the spectrum packaging. Graphics were called "vector graphics system". One of the best games made during that period. Far more playable than the other two if i remember.
 
Carsten, jesus mate, that's is one massive chunk of plastic! Can you imagine being 11 years old and opening that on Christmas morning!

Some class purchases fellas, love that Palitoy RC R2 Gary.

I've had a really good couple of weeks:

Biggest bargains were the 2 12" figures, Stormtrooper is almost untouched, really white, both for £38 (including the postage!)
The molded head Luke Jedi with snap cape was a steal at £17 I thought, seen them go for almost double that and he's mint.
My favourite pick ups from this haul were the Helix Stormtrooper pencils - unused (thanks to Dave tree, Mr Shifter and Curry Monster) and the Palitoy Cantina - box is in excellent nick!
 
Everyone seems to be doing very well at the mo! Nice haul there, Sub. Especially like the Cantina. Lovely proof too Bram.

Picked up a few items in the last couple of weeks. First up, this Tauntaun. Not entirely pleased with it- may punt it on eventually if I can find a really minty one.

Next up, got this Attack Base. Very happy with it, even though it needs a couple of bits. Box is pretty reasonable. All for £15 8)

Finally, got hold of 3 Palitoy Mocs that I've been after for a while. Dead chuffed with them, especially the Sandpeople - can't believe I've finally got myself a 12 back Palitoy moc! 8) Had to bust him out of prison first though ;)

Haven't posted anything here for while, probably just lived through the hardest 3 weeks of my life however my vintage purchases haven't slowed

The diecast slave 1 and bespin leias are from my secret Santa. Thank you, they are awesome.
The 2 lili ledy's are my first but not the last.
The dv star destroyer box and Dagobah playset (curtesy of fuzzy Buzzy) is from FFVii
And the 2 MOC are from Andy xwing. They were at FF but I walked aware from them. Last Wednesday a had a bit of a windfall and PM'd Andy then voila. Thanks Andy for the super fast postage and top packaging. The Snowtrooper is a Canadian 41back, but most importantly the Power Droid completes my ESB MOC run. :D :D :D. I'll probably post photos of the entire run between Xmas and new year.

Merry Christmas everyone and a happy new year. Joining SWFUK has made 2014 for me and completing my ESB run has been a blast.
