    Opinions on bootlegs

    Absolutely! It’s a fascinating path to go down and can be really affordable to star out with (and then cripplingly expensive when you realise what’s possible!)

    Micro Collection - Unpainted

    These are something I’d like to start collecting too but don’t know much about them either. @spoons is probably your best bet for extra information here.

    Very old Fake Red Cape Bib Fortuna?

    I can’t provide any help on the authenticity but I recall years back people were dying the regular capes red. Gus’s sure has an old page on these: http://theswca.com/images-fakes/red-bib.html It’s not uncommon for sellers to slip a repro yak face into a pile of beaters without mentioning it...

    Change of Forum Ownership

    I too have just started a family and haven't had 5 minutes to myself so I can understand your reasons. As everyone has said before, this is the place for Vintage SW in the UK and will always be. I have made lifelong friends and will forever be thankful for all the hard work and dedication you've...

    Note to self - don't buy from the U.S

    Ask DHL for a breakdown. I got stung a few years ago buying art from Australia when they put the tax claim in on their postage. I rejected their invoice and they backed down so I expect it’s something they try on quite regularly

    At at driver with weapon

    The At-At driver weapon also came as part of some mail always so there’s probably more of them about. Shame they didn’t do the same with pop up R2 lightsabers

    I wonder what I will find at the local car boot sale this year?

    Ah nice one, I see you’ve got it posted now so more people will appreciate it! Out of interest what sort of state it the microphone spigot in? Mine is pretty mangled but it looks like this is unavoidable if it was taken apart repeatedly.

    I wonder what I will find at the local car boot sale this year?

    Was this the one that was on eBay recently? I was wondering if someone here picked it up. It’s a rare piece for sure, congratulations. How come you didn’t post it on the LA thread?

    Has the pandemic changed your attitude to your collecting?

    I had an interesting conversation with a neighbour at the weekend, he restores classic cars and noted the prices have shot up over the pandemic. My wife is interested in vintage designer handbags (yes, it’s a thing!) and she said the prices have also gone up so we’re not alone in lamenting the...
