I still can’t quite see the blue but just asked my 11 and 7 year old and they both said Dark Blue ! Oh to have young eyes. So I am going dark blue V2 as my bet

I have the following spares from a job lot I purchased. All float / drop tested and checked via Imperial Gunnery - so hopefully no mistakes here ! Uganught Bag (SOLD), Hoth Rifle, 4-Lom ( Zuckass ) Rifle Snowtrooper (sold) Rifle(sold) £5 each Bespin Blaster ( tip damage) Rancor Keeper Staff...

I picked this Blaster up in a job lot of vintage weapons, passed the float test and drop test and according to Imperial gunnery ( as best I can see ) it’s legit. But it’s solid black and Matt finish so suggestive of Luke Stormtrooper or Thall Joben, what do others think ? God forbid I...

I’ve shared this story before, but as a 7 year old I went to Harrords with my mum and Dad and saw a Lando Skiff figure for the very first time. I remember my mum and dad buying it for me after a few tears. I still love the feeling / wonder of that figure. It was brilliant. Thanks for...

I received a repainted Nein Numb in a batch of figures I bought years ago. I put it to one side and forgot I had him until earlier this week. His Jacket and boots are black. To be honest it looks ok ( not that i’d Display it ) but the question I am Left with is, how much of the original...

Absolute cu*t.

Thanks Chris. A really nice post to read. Reassuring that I am not alone in my thinking. I’v just sent you a PM as, funny enough, Nick suggested asking if you had a couple of the weapons I am seeking still - based on a post from before. Good to know there are good people on here always.

The last year or so, following that sh*t awful Last Jedi, I lost a lot of interest in my vintage collecting. I’d get the odd thing but nothing like I used to. Just felt blah towards eBay and it’s “joys” and flat with Star Wars. I boxed my loose collection up and it’s still in store ! I sold...

I am thinking about putting my discoloured R2D2 legs through the hydrogen peroxide treatment. However, I wanted to ask others first if they have done this and if there is any effect on the blue stripes. I don’t want to fade the blue, which is actually quite ok for a Solid Dome figure...

Went to eBay & got one for £20. Hi All I am after a loose Fett. I don’t mind HK or Taiwan COO and I don’t need a blaster. I am looking for as little paint rub as possible please. Anyone with a spare please contact me Thanks Lee

$140 dollars does seem a lot. Especially when Royal Mail will get their sticky fingers on the additional handing charge. Maybe getting a few people to all do a multi buy makes most economical sense. As for that prick on eBay with his Han Stormtroopers, I might have given him a pass without...

Sorry guys if this should be in the off topic threads, happy to have it moved, but equally would like some advice rather than have the plea buried. I’d like to know if anyone has ever restored an old 84’ Kenner Superpowers figure. Anyone who knows the line will know that the Superpowers...

For what it’s worth, advice wise, open a dispute on eBay and send it back. It’s adverting a 100% original black blaster and frankly it’s not. So why let the guy off ? Just open the dispute and that way there is no debate and the seller has to cover the return costs. It’s the correct way to...

eBay might not give a ****, but what about Hasbro / Disney ? They own the copyright

I think reproduction stuff has really hurt the hobby and has increased a lot over the last few years, but this is another level of despicable.

Yet another bloody thing to affect our hobby ! Have a look @ this clown and his “project” https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VINTAGE-STAR-WARS-STORMTROOPER-FIGURE/323632349541?hash=item4b59fdc165:g:-RoAAOSwLgpcF4zx :evil:

Could be that I am lucky to get £2 a card on average or it could average out to £6 a card. I just won’t know until I try :-( That’s the risk

Cheers mate. As I say, ideally looking for a dealer to come collect everything :-)
