Latest Acquisitions

Picked up a nice Zuckuss today from a local antiques shop as a little present to myself as it's my birthday today, plus a nice Retro magazine with a good selection of Retro eighties toys in it.

Yeah I was pretty traumatised by the hole ordeal, back then I just mixed and matched but had some pretty special figures. My main focus is going to be ROTJ Mocs
I feel like a kiddy in a candy store at the minute, just can't help myself to the point I could be overspending on particular figures. I feel I got a good deal on Kenobi R2 and Wicket as the seller through in a free royal guard, for $300 I didn't think was too bad, no customs
Fee was a bonus. If anyone has any duplicates for sale that I don't have that would be great as I might get banned from eBay by the Mrs soon lol.

My first names Mike btw, some of the purchases and collections on hear... OH MY. For any Uk members a friend tagged me for a Bristol toy auction coming up end of the month could be of interest to some of you.

Had another arrival today, I'm not massively keen on graded items anymore but I thought this was quite nice for price

They're not dolls, they are ACTION FIGURES! :)

Very cool magazine nonetheless. Love the photos.

you are not wrong - very nice

the latest pickups from the other guys are pretty cool too 8)
 
That Doll World magazine is cool. I need two: one to read and one to send to Lee Bullock :lol: Very cool indeed. Would love to read those articles.

Not the most interesting cardback but quite hard to find: AT-AT Commander on Palitoy 45b. He'll never set the world on fire in terms of excitement but he's a long way from common on this cardback and was a mere £47 on eBay. Stuck him in the MOCs under £50 thread too. Just don't tell the FB crew they're still out there, though.....

That's actually one of my favourite cardbacks haha eye of the beholder I suppose. Always loved the image of the AT-AT's on Hoth on that card.

Amazing!!!! price too well done! :D

I agree have always liked this figure and card, nice pickup, especially for £47!
 
Some great pick ups guys. I've been looking for one of these for a long time. Not in his baggie, comes with everything else. The actual figure is in good condition too.

Picked this guy up today, took the kids into town for a bit, called in Costa etc just the usual. Called in a couple of charity shops to chance my arm and bingo. Paid a pound, yes I know not the best find but at least now he is part of my collection and will be cherished.
