Diecast run complete

[spoons]

I'm a happy man today. I've completed my first vintage run other than a loose set

A full set of 11 MIB/MOC Diecast and the small wing DV TIE

Mate, that is a truly, truly beautiful sight to see - congrats 8) 8) 8)

I like that. I like that a lot. Congrats mate.

Are you just going for one of each example on a card? I see the Tie is a clipper, some are Palitoy and you still need an ESB X-wing. Not to piss all over this as that is a great feat and I only own a couple of these carded and still no tie bomber.

Cheers fellas - I am genuinely a very happy man

Todd here's the rest of the collection, I'm really only after an ESB, toltoys, Canadian, Harbert and Meccano TIE but as I've ended up with three X wings and 3 DV TIEs I might keep those runs going

Sexy. 8)

VERY nice run mate. Seriously thinking of going down this route now- they look so good 8)

Ungh! I really want that ESB X Wing (as you know mate!), I have the ESB Tie, one of my most treasured pieces.

Which is the rarest though?

That's a pretty insane accomplishment.

First class Andy.

A very good question - I'd have said the X-wing but I've not seen a TIE in about a year now. Probably about the same, is there an ESB landspeeder too?

And cheers Grant - you really need to go down the TIE route

I'd probably **** if I found out there was an ESB Landspeeder too - I've not heard of one but then again, I saw an ESB boxed 12" Chewie on ebay a couple of weeks ago and I had no idea that existed.

As for rarity, yes, I'd agree they're about the same. I almost had the X Wing a couple of times but they've slipped through my fingers for one reason or another.

Well that didn't take you long to get an update picture up ( although 10 years to wait for the Tie Bomber is a fair amount of time and deserves to be shown immediately).

Congrats on completing the run, such a great thing to see and in my opinion the Tie Bomber is the highlight of highlights and well worth the wait. It's always a shame when something get's slightly damaged in the post but I really wouldn't let this put you off of it in any way as it really does look splendid!

Always good to hear that a run has been completed, any thoughts on a new one?

Thanks Ian, I was that excited I got everything off the shelves within 10 mins of opening it :lol: Personally the small wing DV TIE is my favourite but the bomber is pretty special

No plans for a new run just to get more TIEs and keep on with Han Hoth and INT4

And thanks Savory, I was lucky that die cast hasn't been hit by the price madness.

andy i duft't my cap to you sir. a great run and amazing pieces! good hunting my friend

I forgot about the small wing DV TIE, that one does take the first prize but the Bomber is still very impressive

Really awesome run Spoons. Congrats.

 

[Joe]

Really happy for you Andy, awesome looking collection!

 

[BlueDog]

Amazing collection Andy, I'll keep an eye out for any Toltoys ones that might pop up for sale.

 

[spoons]

Thanks all and Ryan - much appreciated!

Passed on a Toltoys X Wing a few years back and haven't seen many since
