Latest Modern Acquisitions

[Sundancer Squadron]

I ordered these very late Friday night, and they arrived mid day Monday. top marks for Kapow Toys for that onel. I really need to get hold of General Veers, Admiral Piett and a Tie pilot or two and that will be my Imperials done I think. I'm leaning towards grabbing a few more standard troopers and one of the space troopers at some point then I think that would be it unless something obscure gets released. :roll: :lol:

And this dude showed up too, not had a chance to give him a look over yet. Only just got in, need tea first.... :lol:

VERY IMPRESSIVE.

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

Managed to nab these two in a trade, someone didn't like them fortunately for me I do. :lol:

These three arrived from SAF early this morning, I thought I had ordered a flame trooper but seems I forgot to put in the basked, oops.

Sorry for the lighting, still working on it. :roll: :lol:

I got these today as well. I've a horrible feeling I may have ballsed up my order for the flame trooper as well...

Just picked up my BS Vader helmet as well. Need somewhere to display these.

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

Thats odd, i'm almost positive that I had put it into the basket but doesn't seem to of gone into it.


Guess ill have to grab one..... :lol: :roll:

 

[monkey_roo]

Was wondering where my Moff Gideon, Din Djarin and Armourer were and the. Realized I preordered with the retro collection so need to wait for all of them to come into stock - dooh.

Anyway these chaps did arrive today...

 

[MrGudz]

Picked up my Biker Scout this evening. Superbly packaged complete with it's original shipper box.

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

Who is stocking them now? Struggled to get hold of this one and the buildapack mando'. :evil:

Very nice though, defiantly lacking a speeder bike in the collection.

I was amazed how well packaged it was considering Amazon are involved. I've got the original BS release somewhere. I'll try and dig it out to compare the two.

Impulse purchase after watching season 2 of Mando....

I really want one of these as well. It's a bit of a beast from what I've heard?

 

[db94]

Merry Christmas

Santa left some lovely SW pressies for me.
Woolies Darth Vader, ESB 40th Anniversary R2 (love the card) and R2 with survival kit which I absolutely loved opening under the tree to play with - nice change from displaying a MOC. Oh and daughter gave me a wee Dagobah lamp so a very ESB themed Christmas

 

[grinchy]

lots of great pickups guys, love the empire lamp, thats great as are the other two gifts

Impulse purchase after watching season 2 of Mando....

Nice, I've been tempted by this. Heafty price tag though, great that you took the plunge!

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

Urrg, rough couple of weeks but finally managed to get myself a Mr Veers, I have no idea why I didn't grab him long ago.

Look away now if you only Like MIB, I like to open some of my Black Series (VC i keep carded). :roll: :lol:

We really dont have many officer figures available, so i'm tempted to grab another for a custom figure. Ill get Piett first, anyone got one?

Hmm, the cap is a little small but I think I can stretch it out a little.

 

[Clawrence]

The misses has just finished knitted this baby yoda for me 8)

 

[gammoguard]

Not a figure or toy but my new rug finally turned up today (had it on order since before Christmas)

 

[grinchy]

Great pickups guys, the Veers is a great figure as is Tarkin, cool baby yoda! and that rug looks ace need to snag one myself

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

Some cracking additions indeed, I do like that rug. hmmmmmm, maybe when I get a bigger place one would look good in the cave.

 

[Michael Sith]

Christmas present from the kids

Black series Fett proto helmet

 

[grinchy]

That helmet display looks ace, very cool

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

I was on the hunt for some Tie fighter pilots, then two opened card backs popped up on ebay so managed to nab them. They seem to be a little thin on the ground for some reason, not sure why. I might try and get hold of one of the Inferno Squad versions too but I get the sneaky feeling we will get some more in the gaming greats line. I'm on the hunt for a scout trooper or two and one of those space troopers if anyone has some spare? Loose or boxed I don't mind. Piett still seems to be a little elusive at the moment, hopefully ill find one at some point.

A little list of what im looking to add, i'm still lacking some imperial droids though. hmmmm
Emperor :x (heavily scalped on ebay)

Someone recently asked me (Ill apologise as I forgot who) who makes/sells those stepped risers. Honestly I have no idea, I found one random riser in Wilkos' for £3 so I thought it would be worth a try. Then a short while ago a bunch popped up in Lidls, they are rather strong and rigid so will do until I find something nicer. If I see them in store again ill give a heads up in case they are of use to anyone.

[Sundancer Squadron]

Yes I have been looking at those, might give them a try.

These two arrived today, I was in two minds if to open them but now I have a tough choice....I might have to get two more to keep carded. If you have not got the older releases that seem to of shot up in price for no reason what so ever then grab these two, they do look nice. Only little omission I can see is Lukes goggles? Oversight maybe or they thought well i'm sure people have some spares from the rebel troopers.

 

[monkey_roo]

The Luke and Han are well worth it.
Mine arrived today along with the first few 40th empire figures.
Another load should arrive tomorrow and the last few over the weekend maybe?

 

[monkey_roo]

Lots more today...

 

[Diamond76]

Lots more today...

New to the collecting but I am assuming those are the Vintage Collection figure?

I plumped for the Retro Collection.

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

These are the black series 6'' line, and bloody hell Monkey you really did go all out. A very nice haul indeed, I stupidly let slip the Luke/yoda pack and R2 like an idiot. -.-

Think ill hold out for a clean version and a new C3P0, I oddly enough do have any of their old releases.
