Indeed it is, I remember being very anti social media & only as I mentioned to Jeremy above got sucked into it eventually due to the specific interest group, it has it's pros but also many cons, here is where the heart is & I need to remind myself of it.

Totally agree Jeremy that all it needs is the input & I must make more of an effort, been doing so the last couple of days, I agree the vibe on here is very different to FB & I miss it's warmth, also much easier to navigate, I sort of got sucked in with FB as I help admin a baggie group on...

I like the fact they look very screen accurate, but not a fan of how fragile many of the parts are, one that came out way after I finished collecting as a kid, so I never actually had one, in short I think it's a great display piece but as an actual toy a disaster waiting to happen, much to easy...

I'm with you there theforceuk, not quite sure why these have gone so mental price wise, though having a childhood figure be it a red bar R5 or other is always pure gold, sadly I can't help on your question, I've only seen a couple of carded examples & from memory both were kenner.

& there's me searching the forum for what posts could use some input (& which don't), I think this likely falls into the latter category & I echo your thoughts weasel.

I sure hope you come full circle & are feeling your old self, things like the silver fish spat can certainly dampen you enthusiasm for the collecting, I do hope you now have that issue under control buddy. I'm going to make a concerted effort to post more, though it's not as easy as it once...

You fell totally off the star wars bandwaggon ? yes would be lovely to see you again, been looking last couple of echo lives but not spotted you

Welcome

Well you have a good head start on many of us when we started, having things from your childhood collection is sheer gold, it's nice to read & I wish you all the best in putting a full run together, there's loads of display options these days, when I was in your shoes there were none so I made...

I echo Cazza's thoughts sadly, can't be of much help on your question, well none at all, but a warm welcome.

Just checked & I'm the only member online, I know it's become a lot quieter & I am as guilty as most for not being on like I used to be, but dang! I don't think I've ever been the only member online even at 3am. I need to get posting more frequently as the forum is a thing I would hate to be...

& another rather special piece, ok it's an ewok & I just can't find any love for the bloody things, but this firmly cements the fact that the final figures could be confirmed in palitoy baggies, this is a Palitoy-i, there's full details on the whole find in the bulk finds section on the baggie...

Well I can't really remember the last time I posted on here for anything new to the collection as it's not often I find anything & if I do I usually can't justify the cost with how prices are now, but a while ago & with the help of a friend stateside I finally managed to get the baggie I needed...

Wowsers just scolling back & you really seem to be on fire, not just 1 but 2 multi pack, good going these days, it's been a very long time since I managed to add one to the collection, are they full or just boxes? will be interesting trying to completer that ESB one if it's an ampty

Wow StarWarsFan, that's a huge haul there, loving most of it TBH, boxed tie fighter is a real eay catcher, but an ESB luke & an A wing & to top it off a miss card, bet your pocket is groaning lol

looking ready for a tour of duty on the death star now Mike, amazing what a little patience & elbow grease will achieve, good job!!

Just a little update which I know I've covered some of on a more recent post, but just found this old update post so figured I'd bump it with a little more info, that a lot more work has been done & you can now also find a post number in yellow at the top of each post which corresponds to the...

At this point after the times I have posted it up I doubt I'll ever get a solid answer, maybe just like you say a lack of the pigment in a batch, it is very noticeably different from the standard ones
