Got to agree there ,that R2 looks cool and would be even cooler getting my hands on that figure.Don't you just love touching a toy that has been sealed for over 30 years .
 
I wouldn't destroy the bubble or the card for touching a figure. I think it's good to have both a loose and
a MOC version. Besides I love touching a MOC figure. :D
(and that is why I am not among the fans of AFA)
 
Nice pick-ups Trilogoman. :)

Here's my latest for my loose Jawa collection. Mint C8.5 LL Jawa complete.

Wowzers Ham! That looks great! Such a cool figure, one of my favourites. I am so tempted to crack mine out of its afa case now :lol:

I am biased but that is one hell of a group shot mate, what an awesome run of Jawas you have put together! A nice tri logo would sit in that little group very nicely :wink:
 
lol, do it Ed. Like I always say, nothing like having hands on so crack it open! ;)

What's that Ed, you want to send me over you Tri-logo as you think it would feel at home with this lot?! :P :D

Cheers dude.
 
Nice additions everyone!

wow you've got that LL Jawa fast Ham, looking good!
Like Edd said, add an silk cape Jawa to the group.
 
I know Dennis. 3 days from Mexico to UK!!! Can't believe it myslef, well chuffed. Ah so the tri-logo has a different cape to the regular one, never realised that BUT it's one I'm really not keen on as the capes are totally unfitting for the Jawa, lol!

Think I'll carry on my quest for more VCJ's! ;)

Thanks Liam, tho not into the proofs unless it's an R2 white one. :D

Ok Ham! Proofs are an acquired taste! :)
 
Very nice additions all.

The LL Jawa rules. Are you going to add an Australian Toltoys ESB Vinyl Cape Jawa? I'm not sure I've ever seen one in a focus before.
 
lol, never be afraid to say, well not on here or SWC anyway. Maybe on RS tho as you might get your head bitten off! ;)

Cheers dude.
 
Well have I got a latest acquisition or should I say acquisitions & lots of them, think is I was not even expecting one of them TBH & I am way beyond happy about the parcel that turned up on my door step today, Dennis had said he would be sending me a little something as way of a thank you & I had expected a card & a bib fortuna cape for one of my sons beaters, not quite what I got, he has put some real thought in to this & it shows BIG TIME :D

So this is what I got & I will run it the same way as my new found collecting buddy did with his parcel, in order of inding & opening, excellent packaging to -

first up what I think may well be a home made chocolate stars Christmas tree - outstanding & will go down a treat with the whole family on Christmas day no doubt.

IMGP8072.jpg


Next up is something I have missed ever since I moved away from Germany some 30 years ago, its called waldmiester (woodruff) & this type in the form of jelly, no idea how Dennis remembered, but in one of our first talks I mentioned just how much I miss the flavor of this stuff which seems to only be available in Germany.

IMGP8073.jpg


Next up is the item that I think pleased me most, outrageously funny (who said Germans have no sense of humour), some custome play-set instructions for the above :lol: quality, thank you Dennis, your a star!

IMGP8074.jpg


Next were 4 figures & a bib cloak which are for my sons christmas box, he will be chuffed & will know where these came from ;)

Next was this stunning little box, his attention to detail is spot on as is his taste (or was this your better half's choice?)

IMGP8080.jpg

Which contained these lovely goodies :)
IMGP8082.jpg

Some unusual tea bags, going to brew one up after I post this, no bloody idea what type but they sure smell good, a Milka Santa (milka is huge in Germany & the usual chocolate of choice BTW) & a mini stollen, a much have for a traditional German Christmas, these are going to go down well with the whole family.

& this baggie as a trade for one I sent to him a little while ago :D

IMGP8084.jpg


There was also a very personal christmas greeting card, chuffed to bits only starts to cover what I am feeling about this parcel & this great guy - thank you buddy.
 
& this was the filling of my other parcel today, not my usual sort of buy for sure but for the first time in the new toy lines run I have found some items I like (astromech droids being the only other exception that I know of), all pretty much case fresh to.

Got these at a great price & could not resist, goodness only knows where they are going to fit in to my collection.

sorry for the total lack of vintage in the last 2 posts :oops:

& this lot got here yesterday, to go toward my lads Christmas box, big thanks to Gary for sorting me out a treat! :D he is going to go stark staring mental when he opens everything

Hey Frank. :) Thanks for posting this.
Will reply to your PM now too before I go to bed. Glad you liked all the bits and yes, my gf has made the chocolate tree herself and the ingredients of the box are a co production of my gf and me.

Btw, did you notice that in the instruction the "Götterspeise-Box" reads "Kenner"? :) I really had fun creating this and knew you would like it.
 
Oh you two need to get a room. :lol:

Seriously gusy. Probably the two best latest acquisition posts I have ever read on here. Thanks for sharing them the way you did. Lots of fun. Certainly a lot more entertaining than the norm.
 
Yeah, totally 2 great storytellers. Frank, that jelly cracks me up, wicked!! And what a big heart from Dennis too. Nice to see there are still some good people on this planet! :D
 
Hey Frank I really enjoyed reading your post and I love those custom instructions - great work Dennis! 8)
As for those modern figures they actually look really cool - the detail is amazing ( my favourite that line is the Blue Snaggletooth! :D )

Liam :)

My last 2 ROTJs.

And hopefully next month I'll get a Weequay ROTJ. 8)

I have one if you are interested, in pretty good condition IMO 2 - possible trade fodder?

Its a Palitoy as well which may or may not make it a little more of interest, I am after 77 back droids - hint hint ;)

Wow, Liam! You had me searching the whole net for the VTC blue Snaggletooth. But I didn't find it! I did find him only in a Cantina playset from the OTC line. Interesting that they released this playset with a blue one, huh? :)

I assume it was this fella you were talking about? Or did they release one on card too?
 
Sorry to mislead mate. I didnt release it was a custom carded figure on an " A New Hope card". Here is some info about it - http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/pro-custom-blue-snaggletooth-20b-anh-171155723.
