these arrived today:

The circle is now complete....have all 3 laserdiscs!.......maybe I should get the Ewok movies now?


clearly a reseal....but only cost me £10!

 
I have such a love for the trilogos - although I don't own any - because they were what I saw when I was a kid and went shopping in the netherlands.
1 NL Gulden each in the end ... but there were only the 'ugly' ones... Yak face, Imperial Dignitary, Madine ... :roll:

GAAAAWK!
 
A 65 back ERG, been after one for a while. It was sent in a jiffy bag and ended up bent in one corner so not completely happy.

Looks like you got off lightly! I once received a Hoth Leia from America in a jiffy bag which arrived in perfect condition. So with luck on your side it is possible!
 
Pretty lucky with the ERG Phreatobite! I'd buy a lottery ticket this weekend :wink:

Here's this weeks pick up for my loose run. Purchased with funds given to myself for not drinking this week!

Pretty pleased with him. There's some little bits of black paint missing but displays great :D

Amazing stuff all round. Big congratulations. There's nothing like a bit of vintage Star Wars buying to get through January.

Here is a 65C TIE Pilot.

Though I haven't been going crazy chasing one of these- I was surprised at how little it comes up for sale. Seen plenty in collections.

Well....after nearly a 4 month break, the bug has finally bitten again... :lol:

Having not bought a loose figure in almost a year, let alone one that wasn't a Luke Farmboy, this little beauty arrived today.
Nice minty, MIHK, Imperial Commander...loving the clean Silver buckle paint work 8)

My plan is to put together an Imperial Commander COO reference guide similar to the Luke Farmboy guide I compiled over the last year on here. I always really liked the detailed sculpt on this figure.

Hopefully should be up and running in the next couple of weeks, delivery of figures all going well! There's a nice mixture of variants to put together, I reckon that was part of the appeal to me.

Good to be back in the hunt again.... :D
 
Had these 2 bad boys rolled in the loft for nearly 10 years, finally got around to framing them. Original US one sheets, the Empire one is from the '81 re-release with a smaller shot of Han. In later versions he was more prominent due to the success of Raiders.

Day 2, figure 2...

Updated: Having been educated, this is most likely a No COO, European Red/Brown haired variant....not a Lili Ledy :( Still a new variant for the collection so not all bad!

I will be starting the COO reference guide later on in the "Vintage Reference library" thread.

Theres nothing earth shatteringly wow here for the vintage collector, and one of the cloud cars is for a mate, but I thought I'd share nonetheless. The two pictures at the back are mcquarrie prints I picked up at the barrie potter toy fair for 4squid, along with the two loose figs in the cloud car 1 squid a piece (there was a Bespin luke as well), the bendems 2squid each. The Leia sandstorm modern and the Leia sticker were my secret santa, (the sandstorm is part of my rather good looking Slave Leia modern focus), and then the Mark Bellomo book was a gift to myself, and the costumes book was a present from my firend who the cloud car is for,

oh.. and look who is in the other cloud car.. :)

Congrats on the Yak Face Pete, how many you down to on the last 17 now?
 
Warok, Asswing pilot and Luke Poncho...

Although I need an amanaman staff and a lando general Cape. But I may as well upgrade those, pointless trying to find those parts loose.

The Bellomo book is good. I thought £13 off amazon was a snip, and it's good reference for all the parts of ships and figures. Doesn't cover packaging, or packaging variants, just the toys. Prices are subjective and of course only a guideline.
