Nice little birthday Luke

Wow

Hi all, second post.

Just picked up a good-to-near-mint condition vintage Kenner Han Bespin outfit with original gun. Now waiting on Bespin Gown Leia.

Wow, a real beaut there @Grant_C
I miss my carded collection and seeing a card like that does twinge a small amount of regret but I had to do what I needed at the time. Still not got the bug back.

Not sure if you ever lose the regret or the bug, I stopped collecting for 13 years and it still came back.

I suspect it will at some point, this is the 4th time I've sold up and lost the bug, so far this is the longest stint.

How long has it been?

5 years so far. I still buy SW books as I collect them so I suppose I'm not totally out of the collecting game.

What did you previously collect before selling up?

What did you previously collect before selling up?

Carded and loose. I was aiming to collect every figure on every cardback. I got up to 110 carded I think it was and a nearly complete loose run. Had some real beauties in the carded collection as well. Some have gone to guys on here. Also had a Yoda side focus which I've still got some of it left.

Were they Palitoy or Kenner or a mix?

I went down the Kenner route. More affordable and readily available.

Is POTF Nikto one of the tough ones?

Probably as tough as Anakin, I've certainly seen more Anakins & Yaks than I have Niktos

Which was your rarest piece and your favourite piece?

I owned a POTF Nikto for about a year, that piece was a beauty.

My favourite piece, I had 3:

A ROTJ Power Droid, I loved the artwork on the carback.
Tri Logo Luke Stromtrooper, always liked the design of the figure, just wish they'd done a Han Solo to go with it.
Tri Logo Yoda. Imaculate cardback and was a great piece in my Yoda focus.

The one I had was ungraded and I'm sure when I had it there was only 11 graded ones on AFA so pretty hard to find.

I collected POTF the first time I had a few rare ones I think AT AT Driver, Gam Guard it was 17 years ago so my memory is a bit rusty, I remember trying to buy a Nikto but it never happened. I bet the Power Droid was nice, that seems to be tough on any card!

 

[benny100]

Speaking of POTF, just picked this up. Have been holding out for a tri logo but they just weren't coming up so had to get one as prices seem to be getting steeper.

 

[Wreck-It Ralph]

Looks Nice, always like the POTF card!

 

[jedi_masters]

Lovely EV Benny.

The POTF range gets a bit if a bashing but I've always liked them.
