Highlights of my collection

[Mark_Yeo]

I do have a fair bit of stuff in my collection but here are just some highlights (I am a bit of a hoarder :lol: ):-

1. Kenner Canada 18 Back Wind Up R2-D2 MOC Unpunched x 2 (the only 2 AFA 90 pieces in existence) [Special thanks to Tom]



2. Prototype packaging Special SW 3 Pack Sets [all AFA 80] (specical thanks to Joe Barr)



3. Special 3 Pack Sets



4. Uzay MOC (my special thanks to Adam and JoeY)



These are currently my favourite pieces in my collection - and of course my still uncompleted 12 back run.

Hope some of these brought some smiles to your faces - as they have to mine.

Cheers, Mark

Hi Tom

Been at it for about 10 years. Started proper in 2001 when I started work (needed money to finance this crazy hobby), took a long break from 2004 to 2009 and got back into it in late 2009. I think that the break was good as prices went crazy during that time and seems to have calmed down a bit - not much, but a bit

Cheers, Mark

Do you collect any other toy lines, Mark?

Hi Josh

Nope, dont really collect any other toy lines apart from vintage SW. Not enough time, money or energy to branch out. :lol:

My depth of collection cannot compare to Derek Ho's - his into a lot of other different toy lines - Action Man, Batman, etc etc. You will be amazed at what he has amassed in the last 10 years.

Cheers, Mark

 

[Josh]

Okay, thanks.
Derek does have a nice collection. He has a few pieces I would like to give a good home

 

[Mr Kenner]

Thanks, man.

BTW, your work on how to distinguish Poon's repro stormies from the real stormies was just extraordinary. Keep it up. Its with people like you that this hobby can grow.
