    I just wanted to share with you folks something amazing that happened last week to me. :D Last Thursday I got a text from my mate Andy at work:- "My brother is renovating a flat and has found star wars figures in original packaging, photos to follow" Obviously the kind of message we all want...

    Buying in the 80's how we used to buy figures

    My first figure was bought while on holiday in St Ives Cornwall,1983. In one of those little seaside toy shops. The carded figs were on a rotating stand and staring at me was Luke Jedi from the soon to be released Jedi film. I don't think I've ever been so excited! It was the early version with...

    Darth Vader tour photos wanted

    Great photo! :o Scotch Corner in Killie and Ayr were two places I remember having SW toys from my childhood. I remember being in the Ayr branch about '86 and they had a wall full of heavily reduced vehicles and figs - and my parents refused to buy me anything :cry: I got the 'you're too old...

    New retroline.......

    They look cool, but so do many repro carded figures on ebay. If you decided to display them and a fellow SW fan asks a question about them what are you going to do, pretend they're 12 backs because Disney Hasbro holds the licence currently? No, you're going to say 'they're not originals but...

    Guidance Advised: 2,387 Vintage Figures Melted

    What a dickhead. :evil: Costs a small fortune to pick up used figures these days as it is. There might still be tens of thousands out there but they're finite and now the pool of figs has shrunk a little more. Dragged out into the street and flogged with Chewbacca Bandoliers i'd say.

    US to UK post.

    Looks ok to me. All I think its saying is that its left Heathrow Airport but probably the next destination will be Customs or the Parcelforce depot which will still be around Heathrow just a different area. :wink:

    FORUM FIGURE 2018 - THE GRAND FINAL

    Both were childhood favourites for me so its a tough call, but I agree with Savory about weapon detail - Biker Scout's looks great and suits the figure as a lightly armoured trooper. The Snowie's rifle has always been a bit awkward and probably showed have been a standard Stormie blaster. So on...
