    Oscar's cases vs UKG

    A fair bit of talk here and there about Oscar's cases. I'm hoping to get a fair number of them (maybe around 20 or so) - but am concerned about customs - int. shipping cost. Does anyone know how they compare to the UKG cases? Are they better value? Says near the top of the page that UKG...

    Action Man Figure ID Help

    Hi guys I was always into SW as a little kid, don't remember ever having any action man figure stuff. However, I was going through some old family photos from when I was young, keeping any eye out for old toys I had (I'm a bit of a sad case like that!) - feeling all nostalgic. Anyhow, it...

    New Clone Wars series (pilot movie)

    Surprised no-one's started a discussion regarding this yet. Saw it in the cinema yesterday. Seriously disappointed. Didn't have overly high expectations, but I found it bloody annoying in far too many places and too childish. Ahsoka was cocky (and far too good for a newbie in battle) - ability...

    Problem sending PMs - Edd ??

    Anyone else having trouble sending a PM. I've tried sending a couple but they seem to be stuck in the 'Outbox', not making it to the 'Sent' folder. Sent them yesterday and they are still stuck there. Edd, if you read this, are you aware what the problem may be? Anything I'm doing wrong? Cheers

    Identifying repro cloaks, capes, droid stickers etc

    Sorry if this has been covered before, but I couldn't find a relevant thread. Probably not an easy question for anyone to answer, but, are there any sure-fire ways to determine if a cape, cloak, droid sticker etc is original or repro? Got some figures in a bulk lot that I'm not sure about -...

    Insuring a Collection

    Can anyone give any suggestions as to companies to speak to re: insuring a vintage star wars collection - comprising the usual mix of graded and ungraded, loose and carded figures, boxed vehicles etc. I spoke to a couple of firms who refused to give a quote. Are there any specialist firms for...

    When is an unpunched card, not a unpunched card?

    Bought a carded figure a while back which was described as unpunched. When it arrived, it had blatantly been punched but someone had tried to disguise this by filling the hole in with another punch - it wasn't a precise fit and the card image was off-centre - i.e. the lines on the punch didn't...

    Is it possible to tell which card a loose figure came from?

    Perhaps a silly question - but unless a person saw or took a figure off a card themselves, how would it be possible to tell which card version they came off. I was just intriuged by auctions such as this...
