    My first figure!

    Minty white complete pop up R2. Everything else would have seemed easy after that

    Toy of the week 2, Week 36, 2025, Yoda

    The miscard with the massive trilogo bubble is hilarious. That batch must have had the most considerate delivery driver to get him to the shop without being smashed to pieces

    Great to see so many lovely acquisitions recently, vintage collating is alive and well 😀 I was lucky enough to be given this second pressing as an early birthday present by my parents. I plays superbly after nearly 50 years. Interestingly it has an inlay describing the action to each track. I...

    Starting a vintage figure collection

    Great advice everyone. If you can get to a toy fair I’d highly recommend it as not only will you have an opportunity to physically look at the item you’re about to spend a fortune on, you’ll get a chance to meet loads of other collectors. When I started collecting the main attraction way...

    Big thanks to @MightyMike for getting in touch and giving me first dibs on these unpainted micro collection figures. My favourite is the laughing snowtrooper He probably just heard about the Acolyte being cancelled

    Warning, protect your star wars against Silverfish

    I’m really sorry to hear this Lars. I hope the damage isn’t too prolific

    Toy of the week 2, Week 10, 2024, FX-7 (Medical Droid)

    If he did that’s going to be a tough one to showcase as it’s preproduction only and really hard to find with all its arms intact!

    Don’t confuse it with the word chuff, that’s something very different.

    UV window film for collection rooms

    I bought some UV film for a small velux at the top of the stairs and it hasn’t worked. Luckily there wasn’t anything of much value around but some modern mocs have yellowed and a couple of posters have faded and they weren’t in direct sunlight. I’d only recommend using it like Jeremy as an extra...

    Toy of the week why do you not share your collection ?

    Hey Lars, I’m afraid I have been on the beach! I’ll get some posts going when I’ve washed the sand out of my arse crack. As others have said I hugely appreciate what you do for this forum, you are a credit to the hobby.

    Toy of the week 2, Week 2, 2024, Slave I Boba Fett's Spaceship

    Here’s my example, Jeremy signed it for me when he was in Swindon around 2005. I was chuffed at the time but when I heard others talking about the damage signatures do to the boxes started to have second thoughts. However now I’m a bit older and give less ****s I’m glad I did get it signed. It...

    Best way to avoid buying reproduction weapons and accessories and paying a fair price for originals

    I’m afraid I’m well out of touch when it comes to prices but the accessories will usually be the lions share of the sale price. My guess would be between 60-70%. You could check some sold prices of incomplete loose figures and compare it to the complete sale prices. As far as repro goes your...

    Capital Gains Tax

    I see they've also massively reduced the personal capital gains tax allowance down to £3k so even if the collection is tax liable, this won't help out by much either. They're really going all in on screwing the everyman for tax aren't they.
