[lee gray]

nice luke

 

[søren]

Nice Tri-logo miscard Liam . I have seen that combo before , but they don't turn up offen .

Josh great Luke . Like that he is misscarded with a Bespin gun and not the normal Luke Bespin gun .

I had this nice moc came in today for my WBG forcus . Kinda hard to find as a ROTJ moc and even more with the Anakin offer stiker on the back and front . So i'm happy with it
The spider web on the front is production error . As it is not on the back .

Sort of a reminder that not all moc's that came out where perfet to start with . And when you find one in super dupa state today . Then you are lucky .

 

[Dark Sith Lord]

Thanks Soren

Thats a very Nice MOC you have there! 8)

Has THAT box been opened yet or have I missed it?

 

[maniac79]

These will be my last new figures for a whil;e (honest) as im on holiday next week !!!
Thanks Iain

ROFL. I knew you won't stop.

But... you being out of town means you can't post... but you can still buy. :lol:

Has THAT box been opened yet or have I missed it?

I assume you mean my box? Of course it has been opened and all pics have been taken. I will post them soon, but it will take a while... will try to get them up tonight. :twisted:

 

[edd_jedi]

Just got this beauty in the mail. Fell off the back of a truck apparently.


Too soon? :lol:

I knew I could count on you :lol:

 

[maniac79]

So, Pandora's box has been opened and as promised I will show you everything that was inside that giant box, plus more...

WARNING... This is going to be picture heavy... 67 pics to be exact. 8) Honestly I don't think that anyone will read this post in its entirety. ...WARNING

I have to say that some of the items have already been in my possession since 2-3 months and I was too lazy to put em on here and some items I have finally been able to pay recently have been on hold for quite a while.

Without further delay, let's start with the loosies.

First up is a figure I got from FLETCH a while ago, I like the moulded face variant very much.

Next 3 figs came from Holland for a bargain price. Even though I thought the AT-ST Driver came with a gun, I think I can't complain having paid only 15 Euros including shipping, eh?

Next up 5 real minty figs from Lee (skywalker73)

4 figs bought on a German forum for another bargain price. The Leia is the nicest one of the set, the DSD has loose limbs, but he is able to stand on his own and that's good enough for a bargain price I guess.

The next 11 figs came from a German seller I know from eBay Germany. He has a great collection and often has minty figs to sell, but the prices are minty too then. :lol: (Army builders ahead, these pics show individual figs)

Next 4 came from Jörn.

This one is from Mark and came with a vehicle, which you can see somewhere down below.

10 more nice figs, these came from Iain. The figs I like the most from this lot are Yoda and Bespin Luke.

I saved the nicest loosies (to me) for last. Hope you like them too.
Well chuffed about the next one... LL Biker Scout. Got this one from FLETCH and this somewhat had an influence on other buys... :mrgreen:

LL Bib... Got him from Jase. The Bib is damn mint...

Ed's mint LL Ree Yees weapon with free LL Ree Yees. :lol:

Hoth Wampa. Hm. I was watching 2 items on eBay and got the Wampa for a bargain price. I only bid on him because I was aiming for another creature (minty complete Dewback) but was outbid during the last seconds and ended up with the Wampa only. Including shipping the price was not a bargain anymore, but well...

Some spare parts/weapons from Iain.

Next up loose vehicles. 1st one is a Tie Fighter from Mark (the one which came with the Tie Fighter Pilot I posted earlier)

This was a freebie from Iain, thanks for that again, buddy.

Now the boxed items.

1st up is a Palitoy boxed solid belly Tauntaun. I already have a open belly Tauntaun (from Emiel) and was looking for a boxed solid belly for a long time. This one came from eBay, without inserts and without instructions and one flap nearly fell off, but I repaired that flap and think the box displays nicely enough to me (for now). The saddle and reigns were split at 3 spots, so I glued them. The Tauntaun's limbs are still tight, might replace it anyhow later because of the saddle/reigns.

2nd up is the Death Star Space Station from Mark. I like it very much. The box is very mint and displays nicely.
Might have to replace the part the gun snaps into though, not sure about this yet. Will replace the gun (has a tiny bit missing) and roof (has a tiny crack) later if I get the chance. (Liam, this is a task for you maybe. :lol The inserts are repro and marked as such, but for now they are good enough. (Mark, did you make them yourself? If so, outstanding job.)
The rope is missing, but thanks to Liam who dug one up, this is already on the way. 8)

Saving the best for last for the boxed vehicles as well. :mrgreen:
I REALLY like it. Thanks to weasel for this one. No inserts, but for now this is not important to me. Decals unapplied and all leaflets are present (I think). The box was a little crushed on the back side, but I was able to correct this a little with the help of a lot of books. :mrgreen:

Thanks to Liam for pointing me to RS for these instructions. They are really nice.

Now to the modern stuff. I know, most of you don't have much luv for these, but I will post them anyhow, so live with it. :twisted:

This one also came from Jörn. I really like this guy.

Some Gentle Giant 12" figs. I like them and plan to get them all (maybe not the special editions if they are too expensive to get). These came from my local comic book store which I am visitting since approximately 16-17 years. I told the comic book guy that I like these figs and he said he'd order them all for me. Then I told him that I don't have the money. He said it was OK for him to buy them all for me and store them until I can pay. Which was already a very cool move. Then the first figures arrived at his store. Next time I visited him he said he needs space and I should take the figures home with me and pay whenever I can. :shock: Anyhow, here are the figs.

The 2 coming up next are POTF2 figures. I HATE the POTF2 figs/cards. My dad found them when he was on a flea market. He always calls me when he sees SW stuff there. Usually I would have told me to let them sit there, but these 2 were only 8 Euros (8 Euros for both) and the 2nd is a Japanese one. Sadly the bubble is a little crushed, but I like the fact that he's Japanese. Not sure if this means anything price wise.

And lastly 2 books I have picked up at the comic book store.

On a sad note I was hoping to show you a real nice Boushh MOC, but the figure smashed through the bubble during transit. It was not anyones fault, the figure could not have been packed up better, it was triple boxed (Figure in a Starcase which was put into a parcel which was then put into an even bigger parcel, all with lots of bubble wrap, so really no one is to blame on this...).

So no real grails here I guess, but some nice additions to my collection. Now I'm "only" missing 9 of the last 17 figures to complete my full run of loosies. I'm planning to complete the set by the end of this year.

Thanks for looking. More coming soon. :mrgreen:

 

[itfciain]

Wow Dennis - just wow

That skiff is a-maz-ing

 

[tundra9]

Wow Dennis, very nice haul, love the Skiff mate, very jealous! 8)

 

[maniac79]

Thanks guys. Out of all the items posted I like the Skiff, the Death Star Space Station and the LLs the most.

 

[PGowdy]

Amazing haul Dennis! :shock: Loving the skiff and the giant Sand Person looks awesome too. You gonna open them?

 

[maniac79]

No, they will stay sealed, much to my son's demise.

By the way, lately when he and me were kidding he said: "Oh yeah? Well, if you do that I'll take your sealed Star Wars figures and open them!".

:shock:

:lol:
