Lee where did you get that album from?

 

[inzaman]

These are the ESB figures inside the Tin 8) I think this is my favourite Tin

 

[craignwo4life]

The modern stuff looks great but it doesn't interest me like vintage does. :?

Lee where did you get that album from?

Got it from R2dtoys for 8 quid

I agree Craig there is so much cool looking modern stuff but not enough money for both so vintage will always come first but the odd piece here and theres ok

 

[weasel]

Yeah I'm the same, some of it looks good, but it just isn't the same as the vintage. I guess cos I don't have memories of playing with it (destroying it) as a kid.

 

[Bollux]

Just saw this in Woolworths and had to buy it.

now do i open it or not?

 

[weasel]

:? What is it, what episode is it supposedly from?

 

[Bollux]

its a concept stormtrooper from episode 4

when designing the movie they used an artist called Ralph McQuarrie and this was one of his ideas, pretty smart eh?

they are also bringing out a boba fett concept

I want the fett one

I was in my woolworths today and only star wars they had was the saga darth vader, glad to see woolworths are getting them in though

 

[Bollux]

So if I open him does someone want the coin?

 

[weasel]

Not sure what to make of it, it's certainly different.
A Stromie with a lightsaber just looks weird though!

 

[Bollux]

i know!

I think its brilliant!

have you seen the concept Boba? all in white

 

[weasel]

He just looks like a well hard Stormie!

 

[Bollux]

you noticed that he has a blaster or a rocket in his chest

 

[weasel]

:lol:

 

[Bollux]

right i am going to open him...let me know if anyone wants the coin? he is going to look worldclass next to my monitor in my geek room

[craignwo4life]

To be honest I don't like it !!

[Bollux]

Craig how about if I told you that there were 50 different variants of him? interested then?

 

[craignwo4life]

No, it's still modern !!! :wink:

 

[inzaman]

Was in tru this weekend looking at the 30th anniversary, or lack of it, and saw this clone which i believe is supposed to be a french exclusive. They had about a dozen in, all with damaged packaging except this one 8)

This is the back picture which looks cool imo.

 

[inzaman]

And for the figure 8)

 

[craignwo4life]

The back picture looks great but the figure looks so tiny in that massive packaging !! :? :lol:
