Latest Acquisitions

[Princess Raya]

Holy smokes Batman!!!

I take 5 short weeks off to cope with the birth of me first born, and this thread has gone nuts! Just finished reading through now. Difficult to pick a favourite with all the Anaheim loot in there, but I think this does it for me most. Love the crazy foreign MOCs.

Carrying on the South American theme, I picked up this:

This thing is verging on bootleg. The stumpy little stormtrooper with no foot holes and his square blaster plus the cheaply made card back. The bubble has been stapled to the card and also reinforced with tape. Speaking to people this was common and done by the shops originally selling the figures as the bubbles were prone to falling off.

Finally completing my whistlestop tour around South America, I picked up an example of Brazils finest:

My ability to keep up with all your purchases might have been impacted by the arrival of the little rugrat, but she's not stopped me from making one or two of my own acquisitions. Have decided I want a run of the first 20 on SW cards with as much foreign variety as poss. I'm also loving all things Japanese and fear this could turn into a side focus. The Takara sculpt 3PO is way cooler than the Kenner version.

Thanks to Frank for le person de la sand. (Sorry, I reused your photo - little short on time these days)

Anyway must dash, I hear crying. Not sure if it's the sprog or the wife cos of all the money I've spent... :?

you need to get a photobucket account or another photo sharing service, there free to upload pictures from your pc, then just link the picture to your post

Absolutely stoked with my latest MOC. Come all the way from Australia so was pooping myself that it would burst from it's bubble.. However.. it was TRIPLE boxed, bubble wrap, cling film, acrylic case... you name it, it was protected to hell...and at a reasonable price too...gotta love Facebook sometimes.

I just received this Han from the last Vectis and looks great in new case, have pictured it with my han tri which i love, in its new case (cheers Christian).

 

[TrisCompany]

These are two Palitoy 12 backs, I've just got, their bubbles opened on the left on Leia and the top on Ben, but I think they look great in their new cases and a good option for me to get them without breaking the bank.
