Focus collectors roll call- Thunderbirds are GO!!

[e30318is]

Thought it would be a handy little resource for everyone to post their foci...
It's handy for others to know your focus- I have benefited hugely from you kind folks sending me links to Jawa stuff.

Focus - MOCs - trying to collect every single figure on every single card - the lists of the ones I still need are in the wanted section - am down to 59 left

I also have a pretty decent loose collection and buy and sell loose figures, loose vintage weapons and low grade carded figures

1. loose collection with major variants
2. loose variants, though this has slowed to almost a stop in recent times
3. stormtrooper army
4. Miss cards & factory errors
5. a little project I have which will have a 3 pack in the middle (droid set) with all the corresponding figures running out in a T from it in all there know cards (SW/ESB/ROTJ/Tri & POTF) if available - this is a long term goal

I need to focus more, or is that less :? just to much nice stuff to focus on eh :lol:

 

[Joe]

I am quite fond of Ugnaughts!

 

[tundra9]

Good idea for a thread Ed!

I've been all over the place lately, buying random MOCs for the most part,
but after low-balling the Ledy Stormie and thinking a bit, I think I have settled for this:

Popy Star Wars
Anything "foreign" Stormie-related
Minty loose figs, mainly stormies and Tri-Fetts, and anything else in my want-list.

There's always one :roll: :lol:

great idea ed

 

[jedi_masters]

Great idea Edd. Just a thought, would it be better if it was like the new feedback section?? have a focus section where people can have their own threads, might be easier for people to look through and post links??

 

[JuniorChubb]

Waiting until I get a full loose set before I start a more focused focus :?

Then probably Walrus Man, although the more I'm on here the more appealing carded figures are starting to look.

Hey, what about a carded Walrus Man Are they cheap?

 

[e30318is]

When I wrote the first post I thought (if anyone replies lol) I could correlate the info and update it as we go? Very much open to suggestions on this, maybe it could be stickied by a friendly mod? :wink:

 

[jedi_masters]

Oh and my focus is anything Yoda.

 

[jedi_masters]

That would work as well, have a list in the first post as people reply: name with focus next to it. I like!!

You should be able to pick one up for around the £40-£50 mark in reasonable condition on either an ESB or ROTJ card

 

[spoons]

Mine are

Han Solo Hoth
INT4
and die cast TIE fighters

And vintage in general

 

[flycasual]

I think I'm getting a Boba Fettish!

 

[snaggletooth]

My main focus is lose variants and always got loads of doubles if anyone here's looking for any of the more common figures or some of the euro figs that aren't super rare.

Side focuses are individual Mailers, baggies including Euro's and weapon error's, also a few other characters that I think are pretty cool.

Also have a little thing going with the Euro cantina figures, but not many yet.

I'm Completing my loose figure collection at the minute but have got side tracked into some MOC, i got some fairly basic ones to start but have managed to pick up a couple of better ones, for example MOC stormie courtesy of Iain... :wink:

As regards a Focus, I have Decided, prompted by I think it was skywalker73's limelight, to build a collection of graded loose figures. I really like the look of the UKG cases and think the figures look super in them.

That should keep me busy and the funds tied up for the next while......

Good thread by the way.......

More than I usually spend on one item, but not out of reach...

Tempting, oh so tempting

Thanks I might just keep an eye out for one
