[sith-smith]

Feels like a whole new world!

Hi Guys. Long time no speak. Hope everyone is well.

Just beginning to get the bug back after a break

Picked up this haul yesterday

 

[db94]

Hey hey hey stranger - good to see you back, and back with a huge haul!

Man you've got one of everything there - damn nice mate

 

[grinchy]

Nice haul of goodies there, very cool

Hey Colin. Hope all is well.

Yes delighted with the figures! Cost a pretty penny but well worth it. Love the VC Commander Gree 8)

Went on a toy run today and came up basically empty, two home and bargains and two toysrus had next to nothing, but i did pick up this guy

and the two loose arc troopers were an ebay find

 

[Mr. Bob A. Feet]

Nice BS Tie Pilot, I'm so tempted to start collecting this series! :mrgreen:

 

[grinchy]

The six inch line is great, i started with the sandtrooper and said that was enough, now i have han, proto bobba, luke, vader, luke xwing and now the tie fighter pilot, they do look cool on display

 

[db94]

Loving the TIE Pilot Grinchy - looks the business in that packaging

6" line is such a slippery slope - they all just tie in so nicely together, buy one then you have to get the one that compliments it, that leads to another and another

Look bloody great on display either in box or loose

 

[Gorneesh]

Love the 6" Tie pilot looks great.

 

[Gorneesh]

Received these little beauties in the post today from Japan ( not figures so hope it's alright to post here)

Bandai 1/72 scale X- Wing and TIE Fighter in the same scale, and I have to say for the money they cost the detail on this kit is unbelievable.

 

[db94]

They look fantastic mate, don't see them very often.
Are you going to make them up or keep them boxed?

 

[db94]

So many nice additions, think it might be worth asking to have a Modern Showcase to keep track of everyone's collections?

Thanks I would love to build them but I think my modelling skills would not do them justice, so at the moment I'm keeping them in the boxes. I'm waiting for the Slave 1 to come out this year. They do a great looking line of 1/12 scale droids and other characters.

I've often thought this mate. I've got a man cave full of modern and vintage but never get to show my wares as i dont want to post in vintage and upset anyone. Maybe the powers that be are reading

 

[grinchy]

Yeah a modern showcase would be good, i have vintage and modern in my collection to, they both look good on display

got this guy in from Colin (DB94) cheers again mate, glad to have him in the collection, i love the packaging on this line

 

[db94]

Glad he arrived in one piece

Totally agree - the packaging for this line is really nice, highly recommend and modern collectors to pick up at least one example for their collections.

Chiffy it was your modern showcase I was thinking about - I'm guessing it's pretty damn impressive mate

 

[Gorneesh]

Some real Tie fighter love in the modern section at the moment, looks great Grinchy

Very kind of you mate but dont get yer hopes up. If it comes off, my focus will be my youngest daughter in a blue n white wilcos bin and the eldest lad wrapped in kitchenfoil with deathstar droid in permanent marker across his face

the mrs went to florida a couple of week ago and heres the goodies she brought me back

 

[Gorneesh]

My Fathers day gift from my daughter

 

[db94]

JediKnight - wow!!!!
Those are some pretty amazing pick ups from Florida. Some very hard to find items and all the more special because your wife took them home. Really reminds me of getting excited about getting toys as a kid

Gorneesh - what a beauty, bet you are over the moon with him, lovely present from your daughter and great addition to your focus. I've had him on order from Forbidden Planet for months but delivery date keeps changing, definitely looks worth the wait though

 

[Mr. Bob A. Feet]

Nice holiday booty and Bossk black series as with most of them is awesome, just seen the new Leia Boussh and I must own her! :mrgreen:

 

[grinchy]

Some more great pickups added to your collections guys, nice of your wife to pick up that haul for you, and a nice bossk figure, they did a really nice job with him
Heres my fathers day gifts from the kids, very nice

 

[db94]

Cheers chiffy!
Nice R2 there mate, no i don't have them all, i'm looking for the sandtrooper now, that'll do me i think

 

[db94]

Sandtrooper is my fav of the whole line - I picked up two for that reason, if you don't have any luck finding him let me know, I'm in no hurry to part with him but wouldn't see you stuck completing the whole wave
