Hello, New to the forum!

Hi everyone.

Just wanted to say hello and thanks.

I've just recently started collecting vintage Star wars figures and other memorabilia and am loving it.

It kills me to think that I had almost every figure and ship (including the blue snuggle tooth) until myself and my dad sold them all at a car boot for next to nothing when I was in my early teenage years, I could kick myself :x

Im still new and have a lot to learn about collecting etc, but loving feeling like I did in my childhood about Star wars and the figures.

Thanks for having me

Welcome! There is a lot of us here who could kick themselves, I remember having all my Star Wars and Action Force stored in my parents loft. I was (and still am) very anal about not mixing up or loosing any of my toys and the few bits I have are all minty mint.

Anyway the time came and my parents needed the loft space and it all went

Welcome to SWF, I am sure 99% of us have similar stories of woe when it comes to our childhood figures, I know I do, happy collecting.

Thanks for the kind welcomes everyone.

Yes it still haunts me everyday about the massive collection I let go. I also had a lot of action man, He man etc, its very sad. My dads also sad about what we sold

Im looking forward to learning more about the vintage era and maybe picking one or two things up on this forum

Thanks again everyone.

Welcome. The good part about your sad but familiar tale is that you have the pleasure and fun of collecting twice every cloud and all that
