Here's my lifesize Rey ( We call her Lucy when she's not scavenging the sand dunes of Jakku! ) with her 2 new forces of destiny dolls that Uncle Colin (db94) has sent her! I originally asked for just the 1 but the caring, sharing chap that Col is, he bought another 1 out of his own pocket and the kindness of his heart, travelled to the shop for me and posted them out along with a few black series i was after! This why i love this group and Colin, an absolute gent and a legend sir!

Nothing better than watching our kids enjoy the magic of SW just like us back in the day :D

My wee girl (21) loves talking and collecting SW with her Dad, great fun :D
 
Now that's cool as Chiffy bet your well proud 8)

My son has no time for Star wars..never has done even when he was a nipper (he's 25 know so there's no chance I could convert him :lol: )
 
Tried several times but to no avail :lol: ...

Anyway picked this up off EBay the other day....the thing is I wasn't even looking for one (that's the usual case when i get such items)...i had a quick look at one of my saved sellers to see what they had and came across it amongst their items....got it for very reasonable price..its mint fresh as well...result 8)

My lastest Hot Toy Purchase arrived yesterday. It is another from the Rogue One range Jyn in Imperial Disguise. Could not find a UK retailer so had to purchase direct from Sideshow stateside. Once again iam most impressed.

What two are you after mate?

I still need Captain Panaka and Naboo Royal Guard Colin...both aren't hard to source tbh mate just a matter of finding good examples

Good luck, I need 7 more, then I'm going to try and complete the POFT2 line.
 
Just amazed at the head sculpture and quality of clothing. Another great figure from Hot Toys.

After hunting in the wild last weekend I seen a lot of modern figures that I rejected by not knowing enough about them.

Out of Ep 1, Rogue 1 and TLJ (or any series), what would be the most sort after figures?

Or what figures do modern collectors are after? Pity for someone to miss out as I passed on loads and some looked cool!

I know about Thrawn but thats it. TIA.

Picked up a few more Freeze Frame figures and POTF 2 greencard (non foil) figures as well....

Congrats on the full run Russ mate. It's weird how focus' change. From my own point of view i did the full lot of EP1 years back and have now sold them all for less than i paid for them. Still got all the ships, vehicles, etc, love the fambaa took me an age to find 1. I concentrate on black series now but am sure i will get shot of them when something else comes out. I collected retro consoles for a few years and havent touched them for the last couple of years there must be a few grands worth of gaming ***** down 1 isle of my display that i could really do with the space but i cant be arsed to sell it off. Same with jakks WWF classic superstars. Anyone else got other **** they are now not so bothered about? Bottom line is SW comes 1st.
 
Just received in post, the first wave of the newly launched Vintage Collection. I big fan of them when they were last out and looking forward to future releases.

Love the vintage. Where did you get them from, and were you happy with their condition? I ordered figures from Disney once and the cardbacks were bent.
