Latest Acquisitions

[mr_palitoy]

Not often I post in here as I have limelights for the stuff I buy, but here are my bits and bobs from FF6:-

Ewok catapult on the right courtesy of Iain Sanderson.

Fridge magnets courtesy of Iain Sanderson. So, they stop appearing in my ebay feed now, right?
Also found a handy place to put my Palitoy Archive 2007 baseball cap.

Nothing new here, but realised the coat hooks behind the door in the collection room was a handy place for my Star Wars T-shirts.

Proof card acrylic case from GW Acrylic courtesy of Iain Sanderson, no I am not in love with him!

This freed up a slot for a Lili Ledy DSC in my cardbacks display which makes more sense now without the proof card in there.

Not pictured, I have 2 SWFUK keyrings courtesy of Grant, and someone, I forget who, left and Ewok eraser in front of
my Palitoy cardbacks sign.

Thanks to everyone for the swag, and for buying my cardbacks so I had some money to spend on the day!

Always forget to post items in here as soon as stuff arrives it's normally packed straight away in storage.

But here's my weekend odds and sods.

Firstly Alan Harris autograph from Romford Con on Saturday

My Bounty Hunter display made by the forums Jackabina (Neil), really pleased with this, seriously people should get involved in these, decent price and look good. Will do a full review of it on the next podcast (episode 4)

Next up was not a purchase but finally got my hands on my prize from Jez's competition, absolutely love it, nice and bright, will get this framed very soon, cheers Jez.

Finally a couple of mocs which I purchased off everyone's personal seller Iain, cheers buddy

Also picked up a stunning SWFUK Podcast training card!

 

[timbo72]

Sweet haul buddy, wondered who got the CCP

 

[SOJ]

Love it all. Those cases are killer. I got myself 5 at weekend.

 

[Richard_H]

Yeah they're great - no need for dusting or worrying about little weapons being taken by little hands.

Think I bought another 20 or so.

 

[Nick_IoW]

Lots of awesome stuff - nice pickups chaps

 

[Zombie_beegee]

That bounty hunter display is amazing !!!!!

 

[SOJ]

That bounty hunter display is amazing !!!!!

Contact Jackabina on the forum. He makes them.

 

[Jez]

Cazzavr, Andy mate that's an awesome gift, you lucky thing.
Palitoy 78, quality Kotobukiya scout and snowtrooper mate, nice comics too.
Savory 100, dude that's a great couple of non sonic welded figures. Very cool. I am wondering where are the other items you purchased this weekend. You got some killer pieces. I was gutted you got to the Leia Bespin 0.5 seconds before me!
Jambobbyb, lovely Vader mailer.
SonofJango, you my man had an awesome haul at FF, truly fantastic. I love the probot and Hoth Leia!
Timbo, dude those MOCs are so sweet. The Luke X Wing POTF, NN and A Wing Pilot are mint. You do have a thing for aircrew! :wink:
Grant, lovely mixed collection there mate. Its a shame that the Lando MOC has scorch marks on it from where you ripped it from my hands! :lol:
Lovely Proof Jason and Endor Glider and Cat.
Stu, mate thats an awesome collection; lovely MOCs and bloody fantastic display piece courtesy of Mr Jackabina's fine hands! I'm glad you love the poster mate, others can order it through Acme Archives. This one was donated by Mark (Sublevelstudios).

Despite my recent speeding fine i had a bit of a bumper Farthest From, well i missed the last one and i've not done much recently.

Freebies from the Podcast crew!


I love this 3PO, i've been after an original photo one with fixed limbs for ages



The AT AT Driver is a card i've also wanted in ages.


I needed a Dengar for my Bounty Hunter shelf.


Finally got a Chief Chirpa, after some "You don't even have a Chief Chirpa in your collection, you are dead to me" banter from Grant and the Podcast crew.


And finally, i bagged a lovely twin pack.


Group shot


That's me for a while i think :lol:

 

[jackabina]

OH lovely Chirpa Jez, my favorite figure. I've been waiting ages for one of those, you lucky sausage :lol:

 

[SOJ]

Missed you picked up the Chirpa. Very nice haul, I don't think the speeding fine slow you down at FF.

 

[timbo72]

Jez, love that Esb 3p0, the cardback looks minty

 

[Stuart Skinner]

Great haul Jez

Yes you have a Chief Chirpa, but do you have a Teebo? Jez watch may continue

 

[Grant_C]

He hasn't got a Yak Face MOC.

 

[x-pack]

Jez went mental at FF and bought every cool item. That twin pack is fantastic. I'm sure a lot of people, myself included, were sorely tempted by it. Well done dude

 

[db94]

Jez when I see what you came home with I'm equally jealous and relieved that I couldn't make FF - so many cool things to spend your money on!

 

[Cazza]

Stunning MOCs Jez- especially the Theepio! 8)

 

[shawn_k]

Awesome buys everyone!

Things have been a bit slow for me lately on the collecting front, but I finally managed to get a piece that I passed on a few years ago and wasn't even sure where it ended up until a little over a week ago.

Kenner Photography Slide for Luke Jedi

 

[Christian]

Ah ha! I was hoping that you might have ended up with that slide after seeing it posted on line again Shawn. The perfect fit for you mate.

Also - a big shout out to all of the other lovely goodies shown since the weekend - its amazing the volume of vintage that is sold/bought/traded amongst what is a relatively small group of collectors. I myself acquired a couple of HTF baggies and still chasing down one piece from the weekend... watch this space!

Cheers,
Christian

 

[Dublinjeff]

Some absolutely cracking pick ups lads. Some of the MOC are really excellent.!

Really like the box framed Bounty Hunter set, very cool 8)

Shawn K...That luke jedi Kenner slide is really nice. Very unusual and rare I'd expect.

Well done to all the lucky buyers

Right then Jez... here we go...

First up, the non-Sonic welds I picked up in the past week or two and have been carefully working on mounting solutions:

Then I picked up a Palitoy AT-ST box at the Weston Supermare Sci-Fi event:

Finally a few pics of my FF buys... talk about kid in a sweetshop! Thank goodness I'd saved up!!!

can you see Jez... she's looking at you... :wink:

All round and amazing weekend, great to have met so many of the SWFUK crew, doing some brilliant deals and of course I have my prized SWFUK on too

 

[user 5830]

Forgot to say a particular thanks to Christian from my young brother; Dan, for the cases deal completed on the day.. shame he'll be filling them with Palitoy Action Force MOCs rather than SW though..
grrrr youth, what do they know?!?!? :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[Doomseeker]

Love that ESB Tusken Raider....some awesome new additions guys

 

[SOJ]

I was eyeing up that star destroyer as well. Blinked and it was gone. Maybe next time.

 

[Cazza]

The non-sonic welds look brilliant- really striking

 

[Dublinjeff]

Very nice haul there.
