Got these 2 little bad boys a few weeks ago to further my ROTJ run, just havent had the time to upload.

First off is a Yoda to go in both my Yoda Focus and my ROTJ run. Does have a cracked bubble under his feet but im ok with that.



Next is the furry little blighter that eluded me for weeks to complete the Ewoks on ROTJ card. Finally found him and a big thank you must go to Liam for spotting this for me in a collection for sale on RS. I owe you one Liam.

 
Nice MOCs Twisted!
Cool Fett ad Greg! No wonder he is so popular :P
Nice Chris, congrats on completing the furballs!!

Got two parcels today, but one is still at the post office, and since it's raining that one will have to wait until tomorrow,
so here's my first baggie Stormie:

Nice carded figures there. Whats the deal with the Wicket? Its not a standard US kenner version is it? The made in Taiwan text under the bubble is strange. Its different from the version I had. Is it Canadian?

You've got me intrigued now Chris, I might do a bit of investigaing. I have seen others where the spear was on the other side of the bubble. Ill let you know.
 
Yes it is Canadian and it's normal for the Spear to be on that side :) Nice buys!

Buy an opened one and don't open your sealed one. You may not be able to grasp that originally sealed items are sought after but that doesn't mean it is a good idea to open them up.

Do the right thing and go buy one of the thousands of opened Dewbacks that are out there and try to get that sealed one into the right hands (a collector who will appreciate it being still sealed after so many years)

Hi you dont have to get mad with me I collect the vintage line for pure pleasure not to make money from it
i just love collecting i know its naughty to open them but surely i am not the only guilty on on her for doing that :P
 
It's not about making money out of these toys it's about keeping things that have survived sealed for so many years..SEALED.

The fact that you can go out and buy a Dewback loose or even loose with the original box any day of the week makes a sealed example all the more rare..just don't open it - it's a silly thing to do which considering your current standings on the boards will only make members dislike you even more than they do now.

No one can tell you what to do with your collection but that doesn't mean to say every decision you make as a collector is the right one that other collectors will agree with, I think it would be good to realise that opening sealed 30 year old toys isn't something people generally agree with which might not matter if you are a hermit collector but if you want to take part in a community like this one then perhaps you should things like this on board.

I totally see your point :P and i am thinking about it i like having minty stuff as well i get a buzz out of it
and regarding the members not liking me if i had been given a fair chance when i become a member and was not bullied i would not have acted in the way i did how dare any of them accuse me of not being me
i ****** love being me and proud of my self for being a surviver i am a nice soul when treated with respect I help anyone i enjoy seeing peoples stuff and reading there opinions on stuff its great :)

I just wanna enjoy myself on here and thats about it . i dont wanna offend people i dont know others should think about that before starting on me :) if any of you are waiting on me flipping out you will have a long wait .
 
Awesome additions folks. Its been awhile so there are way too many to mention :lol:

I agree with the mob- dont open a MISB, and if you do I wouldn't mention it on here if you care what people think of you. Its your item and you can do whatever you want with it, but you wont win many friends on here in the process.
 
Interlude -

Nice additions folks

Nice score on the Canadian Wicket & the yodas not half bad either :)

Awsome ESB-a stormie Tundra, loving the amount of baggies that are cropping up on the thread 8)
