Emiel, that is one awesome Tie Fighter! Did that come from Highstreams collection?

After a year or so of looking, I finally scored a "Build Your Armies" Micro Collection Mailaway.

I bought it from a trusted source, but didn't see pictures of it. I thought it was going to be your typical overstock variety and was surprised when I saw a mailing label on the box. I've always preferred having ones that were actually sent out.

I am glad that arrived Shawn! Awesome condition and you are right, the address label definitely is cooler than the unmailed overstock!

Cool addition Mr Mail away :D
 
Stu - Great Han trem and those 12 backs look great aswell. Its good to see that you have almost finished that run.

Emeil - Nice boxed Tie Fighter. Is it the LP logo example with the text error stating that it has an X Wing contents instead of Tie Fighter contents.

Ron - That Han Carbonite is amazing mate. I cant wait to see the finished product.

Shawn - Sweet looking mailer.

Grant.
 
Thanks guys.

Shawn, I did get this Tie Fighter from HighStream. I'm very happy with it and the custom AFA case looks ace!

Grant, no it's 2nd or 3rd issue Kenner with Palitoy sticker. My other Tie Fighter does have the misprint.

Nice! I couldn't believe when I saw him breaking up the great run he had. At least one piece went to a deserving collection. :D

Is he getting out of collecting completely?

And it was sent out to a girl! Did you see? :D Maybe that's why the baggie was never opened eh? :wink: Love the mailer by the way.

I feel bad for Andreas breaking up his beautiful set. Maybe he had come to the conclusion he would never be able to acquire his missing piece?

LOL! The girl ordered more than one set even. The seller told me:
It came from a collection where the original owner ordered 3 sets (or thats all I received if I remember correctly)
 
Could the girl not be some kids mother? not a female collector back in the day. Sorry if I just ruined someones fantasy :P
Would make sense though ..women do that **** don't they..the mail and stuff or am I just a chauvinist pig :lol: ?


Some great buys guys!
The Han carbonite is my favourite so far for January..can't wait to see that sucker up and running :)

dont know about chauvinist part , but you sure are a pig :lol:


btw ron , wow , is that fan made , that looks great

you should put some red light under it when you display it

and stu , congrates on that han trem , looks great , you know i actually love the used look on those

having some paint loss and exposing the lead , is how it should look imo, great buy for your collection

and emiel nice looking palitoy tie fighter congrates

Probably find they ordered it in a girls name so the same person didn`t get all 3

Awesome set mate
 
Not checked this thread recently and too many smart pieces to list,some cool additions by everyone.

Emiel loving that Twin Ion Engine fighter,superb addition pal.
 
Picked up a beater 45bk Jawa today for $20. Question is, open it or sell it? Are 45back water damaged Jawas worth anything? Either way here it is! :D

Sell it. There are plenty of loose minty Jawa's around.
 
Man i don't look for a few days in this section you all got some amazing additions, i don't know even where to start....


I saw a nice Tri Yak Face from Lee, the mail away micro set from shawn, those are both nice pieces guys.

And Ron that Carbonite block HAN is just AWESOME, i defenitly want one myself.

Emiel, you always have quality boxed stuff mate and Mike's Meccano scout walker is defenitly just as great.

Stu, you know i still don't like those ugly trems mate :lol: But you've find a nice DROIDS R2, that one looks great.
And congrats on your 2 new 12 Backs mate, i think you'll will be able to find a Stormtrooper fast enough (well a Boba 21 back also as long as you put down the cash....)

Speaking about 12 backs, these are my latest additions that i haven't showed you guys yet.
