    First of all: Been gone much too long, but fear not, I was only taking a break, I'll be back stronger than ever. :lol: Now a serious question: I have just found a CD with pics my parents scanned for me a couple of years ago.

    Squid Head cape variations

    Hey, I know that this topic is kinda controverse, some believe that some Squid Head cape variations are caused by discolouration as these have never been found carded/bagged, others believe they are 'real'. I don't know for certain, all I know is that I think they look cool, especially the red...

    Apologies to some of you guys - Part 2

    Hey guys, I have already sent a few words regarding this via PM, the last weeks have been very exhausting for me as I have been promoted at work (quite a while back, but it's getting real stressful now).

    Strange little SW figures / Han Solo + Leia / Sonrics???

    Hey, anyone know anything about these figures? Value? My Dad got these from a collector and I don't know what he paid (it was a gift to me), but the collector said they were rare and come from South America. I wasn't too excited until by accident I found this on eBay...

    Star Wars Store Ad Display - not vintage...

    Hey guys, I know, not vintage, but I need an advice quickly and the modern section isn't viewed by so many. How much do you think is a display like this worth? Btw: Part of the lightsaber is held by sellotape... Somebody offered it for trade and I'm thinking about trading for some...
