Looks like quality time needed on that one.

Have fun!

Very nice Stu 8) That Death Star looks immense :shock:

@Saber - I'd keep em carded mate. Stick them in a Starcase and they will look the part :wink:

 

[Darth Wensleydale]

Nice buys chaps.

That Death Star looks great, I'd love a crack at building one of those 8)

 

[shawn_k]

I love that Death Star! I bet that set will take some serious time to put together.

Finally got these from the US, but the cards are pretty bad - what to do?????

I was thinking of taking the figures out and start getting the loose versions to stand in front of the carded as some of you do.

What you reckon? (they dont look as bad in the photos lol)

Unless those figures are some sort of variant you want to display in a loose collection, I would keep them carded.

I know keep getting sidetracked

 

[stevemac1976]

Coco - some really nice additions.

Saber - keep them carded. I went through a phase of buying beaters and sending them for U grading. I really regret that now. If you want these particular carded figures in your collection then buy some good quality acrylic cases and they will look fantastic. I would recommend oscars cases but some dont want to pay for the international shipping.

I will have an update tomorrow for a few more loose figures i have bought for the variant collection.

[saber]

Some new additions to both my chewie focus and my new loose variant collection:

1. Háborúja Chewbacca Bootleg - this has very brittle plastic

2. White Hair Ben Kenobi - it does have a little paint wear on the hands but looks ok on display

3. Brown Hair Luke - basically mint although does ave a slight discolouration to the arms

4. Finally the set of pencil toppers i picked up recently

Enjoy
