    Imperial Troop Transport Repair Question

    I've got a Troop Transport and although the battery compartment is clean the electronics aren't working. So I wondered if anyone had experience of opening one up and how easy - or not - it is to get the sounds working again?

    Replacement Screws

    I was looking to replace the badly corroded screws on my Han Blaster, and I think they're size No.4 x 3/8" [2.9mm x 9.5mm Blunt point pan head]? I'm all for originality but would you put replacement screws in the same category as replacement stickers/inserts?

    A little project I'm working on

    I won the following on Evilbay and could see there was Luke in there and it had all been badly painted but took a chance.... Then it turned up and Luke was in good nick as well as holding a blue rebel blaster. The best thing however was getting the paint stripped from the cannon and cockpit...

    Anakin Skywalker Offer Sticker

    Does anyone know if there's a list of which figures had the Anakin Skywalker offer sticker? I've picked up a few recently and wondered how feasible a run would be - I'm sure someones done it already.

    Is it Black - What do you think?

    Everything crossed, please tell me it is indeed a black-black 1-c imperial blaster. I don't think I can handle another disappointment. I know it can be hard to tell but looking for some reassurance.

    Near Perfect Repros

    Maybe this should be in the ebay/fakes section but it seems a pretty big deal. These fakes are very close and will easily fool most. The seller has hundreds and all kinds. He's even boasting that they pass all standard tests...

    Question Re: Double Telescoping Lightsaber

    My Made in Mexico MOC Run

    The thirteen Lili Ledy figures on Kenner “Made in Mexico” cards I have been pulling together on and off for a long, long while. Many of these were relatively easy to pick-up but others like Yoda and Biker Scout were a challenge especially when you’re on a budget. A special shout out to Iain who...
