......” and in a way I'm glad I didn't ”. Oh my god man, understatement of the year man. And that’s saying something given what’s gone on in 2020! This is one of the nicest and best collecting stories I’ve ever heard. Enjoy! Savour! More photos please! Pure gold!

Would love to know what he paid for that lot. Even if he was way under market value that’s got to be some serious outlay.

...........nope. Mine’s a B.

.....mmmmm, interesting comment regarding the Stormtrooper. I have a sneaking suspicion that mine might be on a A back but would have to unbox and check. I am in part guessing but recall selling my other Stormtrooper around 3 years ago to buy others in the run and consciously thinking that was...

My instinct is that these videos just must be well known to many on this forum but in case not I’ve added a link below. Note there are 4 videos so if they don’t follow on from one another from this link be sure to search for them on YouTube. I stumbled across this by pure accident on Sunday...

How rare are theses MOCs? VCJ goes without saying right. Ben and Power Droid in good condition also appear to be very difficult to find. Chewy and Luke always seem to fetch high prices also. Many of the others year by year get harder to find, but does anyone have any kind of stats regarding...

.......I did carefully open her up but two things prevented me from doing any further work. 1. The wire from the battery connector to the motor was quite short so not much room to work. I couldn’t remove the wire connector. 2. The motor was attached to the tie fighter with a cable tie and I...

Easily my favourite character. Legend! Indiana wasn’t bad either!!!!!!

A couple of hours effort and a few products later and it looks much better. Sadly though I just can’t get the electronics to work.

First impression is it looks fine to me. Probably get a better idea if photographed fitted as best you can.

.....a little short for a stormtrooper?

We have lemon juice but no vinegar. Definite progress being made! That’s about 20 mins work so far. Not bad!

Thanks very much for the suggestions. Will give them a go. I’ve taken a couple of photos. Hopefully they have attached ok. Regarding taking the tie fighter apart, any experience there? May need to get to the connector between the battery contacts and wires. This may be visible in the first photo.

Hi all, Spent around 4 hours with my boy yesterday emptying and sorting all my old Star Wars toys in the loft. Came across my old tie fighter which appears to be in really good shape and still surprisingly white. On the down side there has been quite a battery leak. The metal contacts are...

Jaws too - Quality!

Guys, I have really enjoyed browsing through this thread. Some great collections, too many to mention but have to say, Coomber75, OMG what a collection! By chance, I have spent around 4 hours today by emptying and sorting through stuff with my boy. I unfortunately have nothing other than a Lego...

Ooo, just to be clear on that last post by the way. I don’t have any and you will be seeing any sold by me. I sold a bunch of yellowing stormtroopers around 2 or 3 years ago (perhaps longer) and the guy I sold them to thought he’d won the lottery. He was convinced that hydrogen peroxide would...

For those of us that played with the vintage star wars toys back in the late 70s and early 80s, like me, did anyone make the transition to action force. I loved those as a kid and dare I say it, much more play time with those play sets, vehicles and bendy figures. I’ve never gone back to em...

Is it really possible to restore those yellowing once White figures? I don’t mean with a coat of dulux brilliant white by the way.
