You'd better!

Really looking forward to this 8)

Me too. I reckon it's gonna be epic.
Also Iain, whenever my missus moans at me about my erratic spending, I can justify it by showing her your collection 8)

Ha ha - just make sure she never talks to my missus. I am lucky that she lets me get away with a lot but think that if she ever found out the true value of it all then I would be in big trouble !

Right, paypal dispute settled so looks like I am keeping Mr Boba and have therefore completed the ESB run

Quite a few damaged bubbles in this lot but just happy to tick it off for the moment - upgrades will come later

Couple of little mini (non-deliberate) focuses

These two have been packed with the wrong weapons

A small Bespin Guard focus - love the extra sticker (thanks Ed)

And a AT-AT Commander run (for you Jeff)

Have th Droids and Ewoks run to phoograph shortly - so more pics to follow

Amazing- congrats mate- what a crazy picture.......thats a lot of ESB's. :mrgreen:

Freakin awesome :wink:

 

[Dark Sith Lord]

:shock:

Iain I just LOVE your collection!!! :shock: :shock: :shock:

Truly stunning!

I spy a very nice PD there 8)

 

[itfciain]

Droids and Ewoks next - have just upgraded a few of these - as well as picking up one of my grails - my Droids Boba Fett

I've managed to pick up both Gorneesh and R2 on both cardbacks

And here's Boba

 

[Joe]

They look great Iain and your picture size is perfect too :mrgreen:

Thanks Joe - got some good advice re the pictures :wink:

 

[jedi_masters]

Iain im in awe mate, those pics are like porn for a MOC fan!!! :lol: Congrats the ESB run. Love the Droids and Ewoks cards, i know they are not everyones cup of tea but I love them. They do seem more hard to come by now. I remember searching maybe 4 - 5 years ago and you'd quite easily get most of the common ones for £20 - £25.

 

[flycasual]

Just popped back in to check out the updates. Glad I did! :shock:

 

[poncho]

an awesome growing collection as always! congrats you must of spent a fair few pennys there bud lol

 

[Lee77]

That's awesome Iain. Top stuff. Looks like a lot if time (and money ) has gone into it.
Thanks for the update. Looking forward to the next one.

Ha ha - good question - I have a special room for it but need to work on displaying it properly

Cheers for all the kind words lads

 

[Frunkstar]

Fantastic collection Iain, you sure have taken a leap of faith trying to put together each & every card for every character buddy - brave man! & judging by the photos it seems like you are well on your way to making what seems like an insurmountable task a reality & for that sir I for one salute you, as I am doing pretty much the same just with baggies & it's one tall order init.

Also learned one more thing today from reading your post as I did not know the Droids R2 was released on more than one cardback - interesting!

 

[itfciain]

I know that there's a lot of love for the old Death Star Droid so thought I would post these up

Will try and post some of the rest of my completed figure runs up in the next couple of weeks

 

[Dark Sith Lord]

WOW Iain :shock: Great set there if you ever upgrade a few lmk mate 8)

 

[Frunkstar]

death star Droid-tastic buddy 8) want to get the same run together but don't want any offers on the card fronts which is proving to be a right PITA

 

[Pomse2001]

That special room must be very big, is the room the entire house ? sorry I am still in chock, I think I have to lay down :lol:

 

[shawn_k]

Those ESB and Droids runs are amazing Iain! It was great to get a chance to see that Fett first hand too.

There were fifteen new carded action figures introduced under the Power of the Force logo.
In addition to the fifteen new action figures, twenty-two others that were already available on Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi cards were re-issued under the POTF logo.

The reason there is no POTF 8D8 is quite simply because it would have been so awesome childrens heads would have exploded..

 

[itfciain]

hmmm - not sure about that Joe - but believe it is you want

have you seen that your mate has a PBP 8D8 up ?

I was thinking more the Boba Fett.

Oh and yes, it's the open one he outbid me on a while back - but with added blarc tape!

 

[itfciain]

Finally got round to sorting through my ROTJs - got the R5 in the other day so have 78 of the 79 now - just need Princess Leia

Couple of my favs here - Luke Bespin & Boba

This one is a beauty, I have never sent anything off for grading but I am sure this would grade very well - there is not a blemish in sight

 

[2stripes]

What a haul!!

Must have taken ages and considerable concentration to set them all out like that Iain, looks awesome! Actually seeing as I'm after a full ROTJ run myself its also a bit daunting seeing just how many there are to still to collect!
