It is strangely compelling.

Respect to the work that's gone in to this. Trying to await the view of the other side but it's really not looking good...

Can we ban anyone who posts anything? And then seek out their family members, add them and then ban them also?

Thanks for your opinion. Mine is that you need to be less precious. I'd have enjoyed and appropriated the quote regardless of whether it was sourced from Echo, here or indeed some bloke down the pub . The joy in the quote is the magical "massive twat factor" not a hidden intention to belittle...

I think it's all been said. I use both forums and Facebook groups as they serve two different purposes. There are cringe-making David Bent-style antics on Echo (see my signature for a recent example) and a bit too much backslapping for my taste ("Hey everyone, I sent Bob this figure for free...

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Bless him. He found a new hobby and he's showing the world he means business... ...and is a penis.

Earlier a chap criticised the rest of the group for making jokes about CF passing away. When other members asked where... he admitted it was on a different group.

Ever Ready. Wolverhampton's finest. Overseas competition put paid to them.

Went a bit strange tonight. Some wanted to pause selling today to honour Carrie Fisher and others took offence.

I've recently come back to the hobby after years out of it and to be fair it was the FB group that brought me back. I was genuinely enjoying the sense of community... but I have to say (and I don't have a horse in this race as I've been off here so long) there are some prats on there. They...

I'm going to do a second run. Decided today. Lower grade than the one I did 15 years ago so I can share them with my lad. I'll be stopping at paploo which I had back in the day on a rotj card. The rest... just don't think I'll bother. The nostalgia doesn't apply. Yes Luke Stormy and R2 are...

Hi Adam. I'm in Bristol and more than happy to compare notes on what I find. Guild hall!! No way! I used to go there about 1998. Great it's still going. I'm sometimes in Plymouth so will check out that one plus the other mentioned on the thread clarkspiesndchips put me onto. Nick

Sorry I should have been clearer. Mark was mainly shows but if he knew him you could go round. Like an Aladdin's cave of vintage it was. Mullion Close was the address I think. I must be getting on, I can remember random information like that from years ago but can't remember what I had for tea...

Thanks. Really helpful stuff. I can see I'll be doing some swapping on here soon. No shoes but he did tell me a story about going up to palitoy when they closed and buying hundreds of nein numb mail aways . them he told the next bloke in the shop . Then I read it again on the thread you...

... plus events in the transport museum by Bristol Temple Meads plus a small stand in Wolverhampton indoor market. Both appear to be no more. On the other hand today I went to a place called Global Collectibles in Bristol. Figures were a bit rough for me but good to know at least someone is...

Hello. I used to be a member on here years ago and a collector of vintage SW figures. My membership details are lost in the mists if time. Life and family meant that I haven't even thought about my collection in years. Until my lad started playing with some of my old beat up figures from when...
