Nice landsleeder and Betamax! Some good pickups recently guys. Got these this morning at a carboot, £17 for them, can't not buy vintage when I see it out and about!
Really good condition for a boot fair haul, well done.
 
lovethat die cast joy... puts my recent purchases of die cast in to perspective lol and those bootiful finds :roll: sorry coukdnt resist
 
Cheers guys, the seller I bought them from at the carboot said they have been in the loft for 20 or so years. He also said he might have more, although usually this doesnt mean much!
 
Some cracking pick ups on here lately !

I've kinda lost the collecting bug lately and been drifting away from vintage but the other day I gave my 21 month year old daughter a couple of loosies to play with and she loved them ! So I decided to put a 77 "fun run" together for her already half way through and really enjoying it :)

I'm not one to do "unboxing" type videos, but decided this is well worth breaking my own unwritten rule. Amazing Blue Snaggletooth custom mask made by Mark Enright.

OK enough MASK, here's my latest Star Wars pick up. I used to have one of these but had to sell it to put money towards a house purchase. I regretted it ever since, and even though it cost me almost twice what I sold my old one for I am really happy to have one again as IMO it is one of the most iconic cards, I hate to say it but it looks even better than the trilogo :)

Awesome pickup! I love the tri logo one for this Luke - especially the brown hair variant with Bespin saber.
 
Sometimes good things do come in small packages...landed in today, DV Tie fighter Dixie Cup.
Last one I needed to complete vehicle set in Original release cup set... :D

Couple of extortionate price (in the eighties) additions this week, one of which is naturally a KayBee stickered cardback and a couple of loosies
$3.69 for Ree Yees and £6.30 for a Speederbike!

Two new additions to my Bespin ESB run that I am putting together, pleased with both...

Those Dixe cups amaze me that they have survived at all let alone in that condition, nice.

That is awesome, congrats Jeff! I love the artwork and the colors on those Dixie Cups.
 
I'm collecting on a budget at the moment and I picked this little beauty up the other day for a fraction of a sealed Moc. Apart from a slit round the bubble it's perfect. I like the photo on this card. Going to put a Ben in and add it to the collection. You can still enjoy collecting without spending fortunes :wink:

It's been a while prior to this last week so bugger it, one more addition to share and I'm laying the blame for this squarely at Hooch's door.......I've bought a bloody Ewok :lol:

The list of things is that long I have given up trying to answer for them :D

Managed to score a Ewok Battle Wagon locally today. I was given a heads up about it, went and checked it out after work and now its sitting pretty with all its furry friends at my place

Got these off Facebook. Are they vintage? I don't know. Bootleg plush ewoks. The seller got them in Bangladesh from a market while travelling. Are they horrible? Most definately.

I can't make up my mind if they are cute or creepy.
Whatever they are, I can certainly say that I have never seen anything like those before..so a good addition to the collection!
 
Picked up this cool vintage star wars Dan Goozee poster from someone on Rebelscum. It's pretty beaten up but I found a nice frame for it and love the way it looks. If anyone knows much about them or how easy they are to pick up I'd love to know as I might try to find an upgrade in the future. But for now i kind of like the old worn look :-)
