I can only see 2 LL's and I think one or two GDE, although its hard to tell.
WTF is the Logray?
Is Obi-wan a clipper?
What's the AT-AT driver?
What ones am I missing (I think a bigger picture would help, but sure)?
Ohh and nice collection, whoever owns it! 8)
Edit, had another look

can someone please elaborate on the Dogatuna find?

This thread on rebelscum explains most of the story. It's a pretty interesting read. I sure wish I would have been on the forums then, so I could have got in on the action.

I know some filters block RS because they think it is a porn site. Here is the gist of the story.
A guy in the mid eighties hoarded loads of carded figures and then stored them in a trunk in the attic. He forgot about them over time and one day his mother found them. She called him to see if he wanted them or if she should throw them out. He put a few on ebay under the name of Dogatuna with low buy it now prices and they sold up pretty quick. Shortly after, with the help of another collector, he set prices that were closer to market value. Almost all of the figures he was selling still had clear bubbles and were in excellent shape, as can be seen from the photos I posted. I believe all this happened sometime around mid 2001.

Why do you think I'm being evasive about this forum piss up!? I don't want our resident shirt lifter trying to take advantage of me when I'm drunk. :lol: Though I'm pretty confident I could out drink him.

Ohhh here we go! :roll:
Will you be allowed out though, it looks like the missus has you busy with DIY and ironing!
Tatsie, it was Skemple who gave you the jist of the story not me. Although I'm more than happy to take credit for it! 8)

LOL thank you Skemple.

:lol: no problem. I could care less about getting credit for sharing the story. I just like to read about finds like these and it is always fun to share them with someone who hasn't heard about them.

I'm officially a Star Wars nerd again.
Am I right in thinking that RS forums are a bit serious?

It can be , but it's a great place of knowledge and collectors, I use both and have friends on both.
If you go over and post there they just don't like swearing or any kind of off topic crap, I mean here you can talk about all kinds of **** in one thread and none of it will relate to the original post , there they tend to keep things on track, which isn't a bad thing when you are reading old threads, I don't always enjoy reading about what someone had for tea when I am trying to find some information out :lol:
Then again when I post here I enjoy the off topic threads much more because there are maybe 5-10 people that are always around and are a great laugh !

yeah, I totally agree. I have the same thing with my website www.muckmouth.com/forum
people just talk nonsense all day. (As long as it's not racist I don't moderate too much).
PS.why does everyone hassle Weasel so much?

We don't wanna scare people off, so we give you a few weeks or months to settle in and THEN we start slagging you off. Or if you do something really stupid before then we slag you off for it.
