Mumbo..cheers dude your a top man, lad loves the proto fett, keeping misb :wink:

And let's keep it that way, wouldn't want you to look inside :wink:
 
TFB ...thanks for the kind words bud, love the falcon 8)
It's a bit weird am I alone on this but being a noob, I've now found that I've always loved the vehicles, especially the falcon that's my favourite of all, but the boxes become just as important.
I always thought that was just an intrinsic value thing, until I got a boxed item, then the bug hit me :!:

Having said that the falcon itself is an iconic piece, and if I could only have 1 SW piece, it would be the falcon every day of the week :D 8)
 
This piece of footage is nothing new, but I never tire of watching it... to think that our Millennium Falcons began life on this production line in Leicestershire... it's something to marvel at :D Also, it's great to see the bubbles being sealed to the cardbacks, two at a time. I've just read that there was a Palitoy Staff Shop at their Baker Street site... what a place that must have been :mrgreen:

Apologies for hijacking your thread, Mike- but I just thought you might want to re-visit the birth of your favourite vehicle :wink:

8) no apologies buddy, that's awesome, love the manhandling Of the ATAT s legs :lol:

The shop scene, that's a dream scene 8)

Fantastic stuff Martin loved it :D
 
Hey Mikey throw your hands in the air like you just don't care!
Loving the collection, very nice.
I know it's not complete but your falcon looks very clean, I see what you mean about sprucing them up for display, very nice.
Looking at your loose collection reminds me of sourcing all of mine; probably the best most enjoyable and exciting part of collecting.
I'm liking the R2 MIC as well.
Nice one, thanks for sharing
 
Cheers Grinchy...have some more boxed stuff now, need to get the pics of it all together


Cheers Jez :D

Your a poet :D




It got to the point where my son and I decided we needed to join forces, simply due to space :roll:
So loads of stuff is at my lads, we are going to bring all the SW vintage together in the next couple of months, and ill put some pics up of where we are.

Need to focus for myself now, as my lad is collecting with me, the figures etc of his childhood Motu turtles THUNDERCATS etc as well as SW, whereas for me it's just SW. Have some cool stuff and need to get some pics up.

Cheers for the kind words, love picking up new loosies still, my next venture is POTF last 17 loose with coins for display

Never tire of SW though...amazing stuff...so glad I found my way onto this forum...love it .....top notch guys on here :D
 
You've got some great stuff Michael! Never put yourself down about your collection, it's awesome!
 
Cheers Joe

A lot of stuff on the joint collecting has been stored and will see the light of day when my lad moves to his new house end of jan, so we are over Christmas getting together the stuff we have so far and I'm going to take some pics so update this thread, very long overdue :oops:

Thanks for all the comments guys :D
 
Great collection Mike! Really nice mixture of stuff, a pleasure to view and hear your thoughts on it. I'm mostly into SW too but I'm definitely interested in other vintage toys and collectibles and I think I'll prob pick up some select bits from other lines in the future. Still got a way to go with the SW though.. it's never-ending, but all good fun :)
 
Agreed mate, you get waylaid with the collecting, and have to have a strong resolve.

I've promised myself that from Jan on I will concentrate on loose first 12 for display . that was the plan all along initially for me and months later I'm no further with it! I have chewie, Luke FB and a couple of others, but am now going to re concentrate on getting just first 12 loose from Jan on as and when funds are available, get Crimbo out of the way first!

When my lad starts showing me MOTU and THUNDERCATS and Turtles and. .....and ...and...you get the drift

So from Jan on first 12 only :D ..that's my New Years resolution
