    Any winners with Vectis today ?

    I bid on non SW stuff and lost on it all by 20 quid. That always makes me a bit suspicious. There was a couple of very high value items hidden in some lots that I hoped no one would spot - but they obviously did!

    Forum Vehicle of the Year 2023 - Round 1 - Group K

    I came back just to vote against the Speeder Bike. I hated mine as a kid as they always spontaneously blew up! I needed toys with a big more durability...

    Vectis today

    I once picked up and entire bootful of MOCs from Vectis, when I was down Oxford way for work. 2 hrs plus for me and it was quite the drive! Think I'll rely on the post from now on.

    What is your best ever bargain??

    They were also in The Entertainer! I bought an absolute bucket load. I still have two or three left. I was picking up AF MOCs on stalls and at markets into the 21st century.

    What is your best ever bargain??

    My best Star Wars bargain was a huge box of figures and spaceships at a boot sale around 1993. The guy had just sold another big box just beforehand. It had a range of figs, weapons, Last 17 (Amanaman, Anakin I think), Ships like B-Wing, the Endor craft etc in there. It cost five pound and I had...

    Vectis today

    I bid on some non Star Wars stuff at the middle of the expected Vectis suggested price (so obv thought I'd get none of it) and surprisingly picked nearly all of it up. I wasn't expecting to spend so much, but I think even with Vectis tax, the prices were pretty good.

    Celebration Europe 2023!!!

    It improved once the crowds died down. It was too packed for the layout originally. The fan things were fun and the kids liked that - the couple of Lucasfilm things were ok in the end but nothing special. I bet sat and sun with Ewan, Hayden et al will be better. I was surprised how much the OT...

    Celebration Europe 2023!!!

    Im Here with my kids. It's far too packed. Can't see anything or doing anything. I've been wondering around and no one has checked any passes anywhere so far. Kids are grumpy and hot and stressed by the huge queues so we are dumping it and going outside to do something else. Echo is a 1000 times...

    The forum is silent

    For me, I've moved on in the collecting world. I have hit my goal - MOC entire Kenner range - But not wanting to take it further (Card types, variants, Vehicles, loose). I enjoy reading about all those things - But I've moved on to Action Force and GI Joe which is 1000x times harder to find and...

    Mandalorian Season 3

    I've really enjoyed Mando but my interest has now wained. The writing to bring back Grogu didn't make sense beyond "lets keep the series going". The grogu arc had the perfect end and thats been smashed a bit with the Boba Fett stuff, which not only made Luke look very weak against the fan...

    Other Vintage Collections

    I'm hugely into AF/Joe at the moment. I missed a lot of the 87 first Hasbro series as I had "grown out of toys" so that and the palitoy stuff is my main focus. I kept all my Joes (I collected up to 93!) so I still have most of the later runs. I'll defo need drop a pic on here of the collection!

    Weird want - not sure it even exists!

    Hi all, Has anyone made the imperial meeting room in ANH? Tagge, Motti, Tarkin and all the other no name baddies sat round the table? Bonus if it's something super modern - Black series is it? I've just had this Wierd idea of having it on a shelf behind me for work zoom calls!
