Latest Acquisitions

My son found this in my Mum's loft the other day. Had a feeling it was knocking around in there somewhere- fantastic to find another childhood item.

Wow nice to find something like that from childhood on the loft

Could this possibly be the slowest delivery ever!!

This was posted in March 2021 and was finally delivered today. Customs rejected it twice and retuned it to Australia.

 

[Cazza]

That's crazy!!!! Nice MOC though. Glad you've finally got it.

 

[Gadders]

Lovely MOC. You must be massively relieved that its finally arrived. and in one piece too. Congrats

 

[Vernon]

Thanks. Relieved is an understatement! Its done a few miles before I finally got it! Just to complicate things I moved house as well so had to make sure the shipping address was updated, and due to the amount of time that had passed if the seller decided to not resend I couldn't claim.

 

[Vernon]

I've also just added this beauty to my collection.

Think this is a last shift of the week MOC and QC had already clocked off.

Here's a few new Lili Ledy and one new PBP (Dengar) acquisitions. The Ledy Madine, Ledy Ree-Yees (two of them) and Ledy Lando are all on the right-hand ends of their line-ups. The Vader, Stormtrooper and Tie Fighter Pilot are all Ledy.

Lando's Ledy helmet is on the way, but I'm still searching for another Ledy Ree-Yees rifle and Madine's staff, if anyone can help!

Incidentally, I have updated the Madine, Ree-Yees and Lando Skiff Guard 'Toy of the Week' threads with more photos, if anyone's interested (Lars, that means you!)

Very cool additions, Jeremy.

A few weeks ago, a mate from work came around. He was looking at my SW stuff and noticed I didn't have a Death Star canopy. He said his childhood Death Star was long gone, but he thought he had randomly seen the canopy in a box of old MOTU stuff he'd given to his kids. I saw him today and low and behold, he still had it and he gave it to me. The only bit I needed and the only bit he had left- it was meant to be! Despite being the usual orangy colour, it's in fabulous condition.

Great to complete the Death Star after all these years and being resigned to probably never getting it completed. Even sweeter that it was my friend's last remaining Death Star piece, which needed a good home.

That's an amazing gift, especial after I sold one for £200 recently. It really was meant to be and now your play set is as it should be

[Cazza]

Yeah, mightily generous. Didn't realise they were quite that expensive these days! I gave up looking years ago, so lovely to get hold of one under these circumstances.

 

[Michael Sith]

Good things happen to good people, was meant to be, great stuff !

 

[Cazza]

Thanks, Mike.

 

[Clarkspie&chips]

That's a lovely story Andy, what a top lad your mate is but it's certainly gone to a well deserved home.

 

[Cazza]

Thanks, Scott!

Nice one- looks like they had some good dealers.

 

[StarWarsFan]

Very nice well done

Thanks Mike

Also picked up this Hoth Rebel command COO just says made in any ideas please?

 

[Jez]

Really pleased with this. My first ever Vectis (or any other auction other than EBay).
It has a slight crack in the bubble (in the Vectis description) but considering that it's unpunched, the card is excellent and it's not a common MOC I'm delighted for £72 (Inc fees), especially given previous sales prices!
