I think most people agree customs are great provided they don't replicate actual items that were for sale however as someone mentioned the repros are getting harder to spot now 3D printers are available I'd imagine it getting more difficult and freely available some figures are even getting...

I'd imagine it would devalue items significantly however if your collecting to keep for yourself an item is worth what it is to you however I suppose you could buy a MOC figure and then crease the card or dint the bubble I do confess if I could afford it ideally I would love all my items sealed

I just don't understand where the fun is in having reproduction items your not really collecting your just making it look like you are anyone can get a fake but not everyone can get the original surely the fact these items are becoming rare and sometimes difficult to acquire is what makes it...

I don't have many however I do have a few sealed items and understand both pros and cons pro obvious cons well your constantly tempted to open it ha oh and as for the tape issue mine is starting to come off my imperial shuttle only slight but it is lifting a little and obviously sometimes the...

It's good to see how many people are against repro and everyone seems to be wanting and willing to preserve the authenticity and originality of the vintage toys even when it's detrimental to their finances an example how Iain stopped selling them the more involved he got as I'm sure lots have...

Very interesting thanks for sharing

I kind of agree that purchasing the weapons or anything else under any circumstance gives them a market and keeps them in business I feel it's better to stay away all together

Love the endor chase playback I'm yet to own one of these :-(

I bet it's a smartie or skittle ha ;-)

I have to agree with you Ian I also don't class bootlegs as repro or custom vehicles or playsets provided they were never made/released etc I have seen some amazing work by people in regards to creating for fun what was never created perhaps something they wish was this certainly shouldn't be...

A genuine question as I just can't see how any genuine fan/collector cansupport anything that devalues or damages something they love and some may say it's just a weapon or a box but where do you draw the line? If everybody thought that way surely vintage would have little if no value at all...

Yeah that's the one from eBay the sandcrawler the seller had went for crazy money I'm just trying to get the clicker to work now :twisted: as for the a wing box that's really nice I've never seen one for sale I've seen the usual empty boxes but never the a wing oh and the uzay Vader looks very...

Arrived this morning been trying to acquire one for a while another item I never owned as a child so really pleased with the newest addition

Good idea pomse2001 to be honest I've done that with other playsets it's finding one with a box that's difficult or at least a nice box I have a small list of items I need to complete my collection not finish it of course because I'll always look to improve to misb for everything if possible etc...

Yeah I've noticed them recently on eBay I just seem to miss out or don't get notified by my mobile when it's due to end :-( seems to be a few unboxed however I'd like one with a box I don't really collect loose vehicles or playsets just loose figures as I can't afford moc ones ha

Thank you that's pretty much what I was expecting to be honest so no surprises there ha so do any come up on these forums for sale or is it one of those that are so sought after that many are still looking for it themselves I'm getting so close to completing my boxed playsets and vehicles but...

As the title says I've been outbid recently on a boxed deathstar and missed out on a few over the last couple of months what would you think a realistic price would be to purchase one and is it worth putting a wanted advert on here :-)
