I think i've commented on everyones purchase since the July FFbut not posted anything myself due to time.

Since July i've bought a load of acrylic but a few MOCs. I also salvaged 2 bare bases (Tatooine and Hoth) from Iains garage.
The figures aren't new, just the bases

Loving the MOCs, the Zuckass completes my Bounty Hunter run, and i couldn't help myself with the Amanaman!

Few bits and pieces I've picked up in December

Starting with a Palitoy Deathstar which I got from Son of Jango, picked it up off him at FF but haven't had a chance to build it myself as been so busy so using a photo dan took. Also got a Palitoy Cantina off Dan but again haven't had the chance to build it so no photo also.

Next up a huge thank you to my secret Santa, the generosity was sublime, can't thank you enough for my items. Lovely sigma mug to move my sigma collection along as well a two vintage diecast. Also in this picture is the mini rig artwork that Dave Tree generously gave away at FF

Decided around a month to start a Greedo focus, didn't think I'd get it going till 2015 but was fortunate enough at FF to pick up this minty Greedo Hybrid to get it going, awesome way to start my focus! Many thanks to Andy X-Wing for this piece.

Meccano Jawa, Jedi Prune Face and complete Speeder Bike, may thanks to Bram, Snake_Eyes_82 and the Mother in law for these pieces

Although not vintage also got these for Christmas. The making of empire book is outstanding and will be purchasing the other two ASAP. Also first time I've ever got Lego Star Wars

Can't wait to get going in 2015 now

 

[Jez]

Stu mate that's a great haul. I'm looking forward to seeing the Greedo focus grow. You want to get a Meccano Greedo to go with the Jawa!

 

[SOJ]

Some great stuff there stu, those making of books are AWESOME. I've got all three lined up on my book shelf.

Nice reuse of the Bases Jez. They look great

My vintage Christmas prezzie to myself, a Hungarian bootleg luke farmboy complete with accessories and unbroken thumbs which is pretty hard to find...

 

[Jez]

That looks fantastic, never seen one that nice before. Great prezzie

 

[slim]

cracking collection you have jez , love that meccano jawa boba and greedi is a great choice for a focus , forceuk love the then and now photos :mrgreen: nice clean bootleg walkie , my latest purchase is this meccano jawa

 

[Frunkstar]

Some cracking bits as usual guys, that hungarian luke is a rarity in that condition 8) the pali death star is ace & loving the now & then pics with the B-Wing, hardly aged a day :lol: though your hairline is still doing better than mine.

Not much for me, but something I am super happy to finally have for my baggie focus, its the internal baggie for the stormtrooper blaster that was found in early issue stormtrooper baggies, but later removed as the plastic type it is made of reacts with the white plastic of the figure & causes yellowing over time, its the early translucent green type, got it at loose weapon price, so well pleased, shot of it next to a stormie bag also.

Just really lucky to drop on it from a burst baggie.

 

[robpmarsh]

not vintage...but some stuff I picked up in the US on my recent trip:

 

[Mr-shifter]

My recent pickups. Got the R2 moc from Andy X Wing at Farthest From and the R2 to go with the sabre I have been teasing Rich with from evilbay.

 

[Richard_H]

That sabre looks repro to me. Couldn't wish it on a more deserving person.

[theforceuk]

Great end to the year chaps. Awsam R2. :wink:

 

[shawn_k]

The last LJ piece to come in this year was an awesome "what if" Popy custom box from Ryan(Bluedog) It would have been really interesting to see if Popy would had continues this style if they would have kept the license for ROTJ in Japan. I paired it here with my earliest LJ baggie.

 

[robpmarsh]

Love those Popy Japanese boxes!

 

[Michael Sith]

Some superb pieces here as always, love that Popy custom 8)

My latest, thanks to Frank
