After looking at cazza's display and seeing how he had fit a display base in his cabinet I decided to nick that idea and try it in mine, just fit in nicely
Problem was I only had spare empire figures to dress it with, i'm pleased with it and will eventually swap out the figures for ANH ones

 

[Cazza]

Looks great- perfect fit for the shelving aren't they? Bet those guys are getting a bit sweaty in the desert though :lol:

 

[grinchy]

:lol: yeah they will be, i'll get them swapped out eventually, thanks for the idea, don't know why I didn't try it before

Looking great, I really love your update 8)

 

[grinchy]

cheers mate
small update, aldi had some 3 tier shelves in so I added them to the vintage display

 

[grinchy]

Took some close up pics of the shelves

 

[Hooch]

Looking good
I like how you used the more modern display for the Hoth figures. I wouldn't mind picking up just the base if I can and do a Endor theme myself sometime down the track

 

[grinchy]

cheers, I picked up the base on ebay, it came with fifty small figure stands which came in handy, hope you find one, they average between 30/55 pound

Glad you've managed to add to your collection.

I will add one of these and a C3PO at some point think they look brill

 

[theforceuk]

Yeah that looks really nice, the cardboard packaging looks really mint. :shock:

Congrats for adding that to your collection.

 

[grinchy]

thanks guys, yeah I'd love a threepio to glad to have this one

Nice Darth Vader case. I have always wanted to own one with a cardboard sleeve but never have got around to it. Looks really great. I also dig your loose Figure display. Lots f nice stuff.

 

[grinchy]

Thanks, I do love my collection
Here's a pair of posters I have coming, love the posters and any catalogue or paper star wars based stuff

 

[grinchy]

Heres another minirig, I know some people don't like them but to me they are a cool little sideline and still quite affordable to

 

[grinchy]

Just found this on ebay, a graded trading card, to go with my McQuarrie focus, never seen these before graded I mean, inexpensive to at £6.00 delivered

 

[grinchy]

Got this on the way, one of my favourite childhood pieces, glad to have a boxed version finally, in good shape apart from a loose sticker or two, some pritstick will fix that up no problem

 

[grinchy]

I put all the mini rigs together on one shelf, I quite like it now

 

[Snaketibe]

Looking good! Great display

 

[grinchy]

cheers glad you like it, just picked up this guy, another one of the list, be great on display with the others

 

[Cazza]

Some really nice additions mate. Love the mini-rig shelf and that poster is my personal fav. Still got my childhood one in my scrapbook- used to look at it for hours!

 

[grinchy]

cheers mate, yeah the poster brings back a lot of memories, I had it pinned on the wall as a kid and would tick of when I got something from it, very cool

 

[Michael Sith]

Looking good Grinchy

Mini rigs as you say are still affordable from a boxed collecting point of view, and look great as a run. Love that you display as you do, and it's obvious the true SW collecting bug is in your veins :wink:

12 inch Chewie is nice mate
