Here are all my latest acquistions guys! :) Hope you like them. No guessing at my favourite! :lol: AFA Blue Snag from Neil (Chewie(

All the loose figures and baggies from Scott (snaggletooth) on TIG

And the Endor Forest Ranger from a local Charity Shop!
 
Nice haul buddy, the snag looks great, what did it grade?

As for finding vintage in a charity shop thats amazing! Might be worth asking who donated it as they might have more :)
 
Thanks Edd. The Snag graded 85 so pretty chuffed about that. 8) :D

Yes I work in a local charity shop just as some retail experience for when I get a proper job . The First day i got there in January, There was a collection of 12 modern figs and that Endor Forest Ranger. I asked them who brought it in and they found in a bottom of a box of general bric and brac from a old bloke. I have been looking in charity shops for bargains for years and that is still the only time have found any sw stuff. I only paid £12 for the because i get a 25% offf because I work as a volunteer. :D

BTW I have posted a message on SWCC about the Indiana Jones stuff for my mate. :) Liam
 
Very Nice Liam, fantastic lot mate.

That Blue Snag looks like he want to break out of his tomb and play tho. :D
 
No I didn't mean he looked loose in the case mate, he looks great. :D

I meant I wouldn't be able to help myself but break him loose from his plastic tomb.
 
I found my "Holy Grail" carded figure last Sunday! I was in Wheaton, IL on a business trip and I stumbled upon a toy show at a local fairground. Almost everything there was Die-Cast Cars & Model Kits so I was getting a little discouraged on finding anything SW. As I neared the end of the show floor, I found the ONLY guy selling anything SW related. He had a complete set of 12 backs, all 4 Sears Cantina figs sealed in baggies (including Blue Snags) and a few odds & ends.

So I finally have my Luke Skywalker 12 back... $100! :D

$100!!! Oh my god! :eek: How did you not buy everything he had??! :eek: :eek:
I didn't have the money! :( Besides, all I wanted was Luke. Baggie Snags was $400 and the rest of the 12 backs were $100 each. Believe me, it killed me to leave the other 11 behind. :oops:
 
Yeah that's amazing. I don't think i could have done. Would have given him my number at least and met him the next day to buy the rest.
Still, you can't grumble about picking up such an amazing piece for $100! I'm still in shock. :lol:
 
That's the kinda time you just have to ring your Mrs and say - look Honey do you trust me? LOL

For $1K you could have made some serious profit there!

Oh well nice score on the Luke :)
