Hello everyone --- I'm a new member -- Loving the forum -- Just wanted to share my picture of my part collection of figures that visited the dentist today for their annual checkup

Thanks for sharing the unusual photo . The vintage OTC collection are lovely, I have 2 myself.

Treated to some cracking birthday presents - vintage and modern

BS Kylo - love the figure and the packaging, work so well together, originally thought about having him loose on my desk but think he'll stay boxed. VC TIE pilot, been after this guy for quite some time, delighted to finally add him to my collection. The saber mug is great especially as the images are of the Master Replicas sabers and couple of SW mags - very, very happy

 

[grinchy]

great scores mate, I have the kylo, really nice figure,the other goodies are cool to,

Family shopping trip to Inverness ( a toy run to Smyths for me and the daughter, but don't tell my wife that) and check what my daughter bought - was trying to talk het out spending so much on lego but to be honest when you add up the hours of fun we're going to have building the sets it's pretty good value for money plus they had a sale on

The multi pack of figures is pretty damn cool as well - the wee Maz figure is excellent and the bb8 is a better version, same sculpt but a lot heavier. Daughter now has the 3 "stages" of Rey (her favourite character) so she's delighted

Lovely figures

 

[grinchy]

great pickups mate, have fun building the lego!, the set of figures looks nice, haven't seen that anywhere yet
Picked up these 3 at TRU

4.99 each, glad to finally have han and the different Rey, on the hunt for ackbar next

 

[TRILOGY COLLECTOR]

Loving the Hans figure

 

[db94]

on the hunt for ackbar next

Yep me as well - not going to pay silly prices for the last few we are after, will just hang on in there until I find them
Have TRU marked all figs down to £4.99?

Nearest one is 65 miles away but might try them online

 

[TRILOGY COLLECTOR]

Toys R US have reduced these figures to £4.99 but not available to post unfortunatly.

Going to pop down later see what there, after watching federer lose at tennis.

Hopefully gives Murray a chance to win

 

[grinchy]

Good luck on the hunt guys, I was pleased to find han and rey and a bonus at a reduced price, theres not that much more I want in this scale, finn in his trooper outfit and ackbar are on the list

 

[Collins1987]

I am sure these are £2.99 in Smyth's toy store going tomorrow will look out for these to double check the price

 

[chiffy]

Yes confirmed £2.99 all TFA figs in Smythes fill yer boots lads!

 

[TRILOGY COLLECTOR]

Yes --- Smyths are selling for indeed £2.99 --- picked up 9 figures ----

 

[grinchy]

Great scores, you got a lot of figures there , my local smyths is miles away, might make a road trip this week, thanks for the heads up

 

[db94]

£2.99

Was in Smyths just last week - what's the bet they dropped the price 10 minutes after we walked out the bloody shop :lol:

 

[grinchy]

I bet they did mate, haven't made the trip to my nearest shop yet, its a bit of a trek for me.
Don't laugh but I collect these

Not paying a lot for them, and have quite a few of them now, glad to have yoda, I just like the packaging on these, very cool, well at least I think so!

 

[TRILOGY COLLECTOR]

Grinch --- what you to collect from force awaken collection ?? You got all figures ??

 

[grinchy]

Hey mate
I have most of what I'm after, need nein numb, ackbar and finn in trooper gear, I'm sure I'll get them eventually, just don't want to pay over the odds for them

 

[TRILOGY COLLECTOR]

Show me pic of your collection

you have both version of Kylo Ren - version 1 and 2
you have first order snow mission storm trooper--- version 1 and 2

i think Admiral Ackbar & Nein Numb is super hard to track ---- i think 'toyrus' Bradford may have Finn (dessert/snow) outfit - check for you mate

 

[grinchy]

I don't have a pic of all the force awakens figures, I don't have them all, I only bought what I liked, if you go back through this thread you'll see a lot of what I have bought.
Thanks for the offer on finn, I appreciate it

Well i've only gone and done it....I blame you motley crue :evil: :lol:

After reading a few posts up from this post that Smyths Toys have reduced their TFA line to £2.99 I popped into my nearest store on my way home from work today...and some 16 figures later i'm sat in my car on my way home saying "what the hell have I just done" (in my defence it was the price of them that got my attention,as I originally were thinking about collection TFA figures when they first came out but at a tenner a pop that just wasn't gonna happen :roll: )

Anyway my nice cheap modern acquisitions....

For the sharp eyed amongst you yes I did buy 2 of the 'Constable Zuvio' figures by accident anyway its going back tomorrow to exchange for another figure....

Russ...

 

[TRILOGY COLLECTOR]

WOW --- good buy did you get these from Crown Point Store (Smyths) in Leeds ---- did you leave any for rest of us

 

[grinchy]

Glad you got a load there mate, definitely worth the money you got most of the good ones to, and an elusive nein numb, very cool

 

[Russ J]

It was Crown Point that this stash came from :wink: .....tbh I didn't even no that there was a Smyths at Crown Point (been down there shitloads of times as well but never noticed it tucked away in the corner as you go into the car park ,it was my wife who told me as she works at Frankie & Bennys down there....

Grinchy there were a few Nien Numb figures there I didn't no they were elusive little buggers ?....

I did only get the Force Awakens figures not the "Kanan Jarrus...Ezra Bridger" figures (are these from the cartoons ?

 

[grinchy]

I've been looking for a numb for a while, haven't found any yet, glad you got one and at a good price as well as the other goodies, wonder how long the offer will be on?
the other figures are from Rebels, I'm not bothering with any of that line myself

 

[Russ J]

I took back the extra Cosnstable Zuvio I bought by accident and exchanged it for the Stormtrooper Squad Leader....I picked up the Poe Dameron (Armour up) figure for £7.99...

Actually I popped into Tesco on my way to work for petrol and thought i'd take a look to see what they had in stock...they are all at £5 but still better than a tenner when they first came out last year...I fumbled around the toy rack and found myself a Kylo Ren tbh I didn't think i'd get this figure except off of Ebay at an inflated ramped up price...

Grinchy I looked at the selection that Smyths had regarding the Nien Numb figure and tbh they had loads of them (this was only this evening when I went to exchange the Constable figure....Do you want me to pick you one up ?.....like I say they are plentyful in that store at the moment)

 

[TRILOGY COLLECTOR]

Woohooo - definitely some bargains here mate ----

I'm after fifth brother inquisitor -- see any around ??
