Boys, that's not the sort of welcome I expect from you guys.
You've let yourselves down!

Last purchase for a while as I owe a certain Mr Somma a lot of acrylic money right now

Thanks to a couple of guys that pointed this one out to me - it is a beauty and another one for the Clipper Collection

 

[theforceuk]

Great Clipper card love the back of them.

 

[ollie]

[Dublinjeff]

Nice cards Rob...
Great Clipper Iain... 8)
Cool stamp Ollie...never seen that before!

Only something small, and a bit of a beater, but I'm chuffed with this little fella. Kenner/Lili Ledy, Raised Bar, No COO figure. Came across a local sale with a poor picture and I didn't know what COO it was. Took a punt.. (£3 delivered, so an absolute bargain!) was delighted when this arrived.

[Twin30mm]

Here's a a few things I've picked over the last month or so....

Finally got round to restoring the White TIE and TIE Interceptor.

Y-Wing
Managed to get the electronics working, but needs a good clean/Retrobrite.
Missing a few engine struts and the bomb.

Also picked up a few figure variants.
Leia Boushh (Brown torso), "White Fur" Chief Chirpa, Trilogo Snowtrooper & Luke Jedi (Molded Face).

Stormtrooper Laser Rifle
Complete bitch to get the electronics working but seems to work OK.
Unfortunately, missing the end cap & D-ring.

Finally, a TVTimes from 1982 (first UK TV showing of SW), Look-In 1978, ESB Annual No.2 and Factors MTFBWY badge (first item of SW memorabilia I remember having, back in the day).

AWESOME find with the TV Times, that was the first time I saw Star Wars and I watched the recording of it to death! I can still remember the adverts they had on during it

 

[Twin30mm]

You and me both!
Wish I still had my Betamax recording of it.

Weirdly, they seem to have used an altered Boris Vallejo ESB artwork on the TVTimes cover, to advertise it :?:

 

[SOJ]

My second micro collection playset. Figures are still sealed in baggies, decals unapplied, has inserts and all paperwork. Box is in okay shape too.

Brilliant find! Some of the cuttings in my childhood scrapbook are from there 8)

 

[x-pack]

The TV Times edition is really cool. Quite hard to come buy. Great find

Good pick up. I like these micro sets a lot

 

[Grant]

Awesome pick ups everyone.

 

[user 5830]

Great stuff guys - really like the Micro Collection piece, thankfully (as with the Palitoy logo) I don't have a childhood memory to make me want to GET THEM ALL! :lol: :lol:

 

[sith-smith]

Great stuff.

I'm tempted to start the micro collection stuff, but am just managing to restrain myself at the moment!!

 

[Dr_Ball_MD]

Another Zuckuss for the fockuss!

Sealed made in China Kenner baggie with what looks like a Lili Ledy Zuckuss. *edit* Have found out this is the China version.

 

[spoons]

More great pickups and loving the micro - the Revenge flyers seem most common in these sets and are part of the charm

 

[theforceuk]

Great hoth micro set, love that.

 

[db94]

twin30mm - loving the Laser Rifle and TV Times - have great memories of having both as a kid. Star wars on TV remember getting so excited about that

 

[indianawars]

That Zuckuss baggie is too sweet!...

 

[SOJ]

Keeping up the Hoth theme got this today....

 

[poncho]

soj - ice cool hoth playset 8)

 

[robpmarsh]

so many nice things guys!

 

[TheGent]

I am very excited as I just won this guy on eBay and this may be my first ledy (or pbp!?) figure. He does have the right Coo, the right head and the right longer finger on the saber hilt. Unfortunately without saber, which will be hard work to get if ever.

Iain, I'm afraid I need a starter set of particular stands for the weeks to come. :lol:
