Sadly x-wing is not sealed - for some reason the previous owner opened up the box but didn't actually unpack the fighter etc. so nice and minty.
I suspect in a few years when i sort out how to display all this, I will take out the box and sit it in front of box - i have a falcon and AT-AT coming that look in good nick but have been out the boxes as well. Want to find a snowspeeder and a tie fighter and maybe the A-Wing and that will do - but the price of sealed ones is ridiculous for POTF toys, so good condition and opened is fine
About 20ish figures to go to see out the 1 of each run and then need to find the Max Rebo packs and a few deluxe packs as well.

Sounds good, the sealed ships have started to really go up in price. I am short of a Italian TIE and X Wing and a A Wing myself. Sealed nice A Wings were always plentiful on eBay but not nowadays unfortunately.Sadly x-wing is not sealed - for some reason the previous owner opened up the box but didn't actually unpack the fighter etc. so nice and minty.

Two big ones
The AT-AT is damaged(glued front right gun) but that was reflected in the price and the electrics are all good - good display price
The falcon looks good but I can't for the life of me get electrics going, again reflected a bit ( of enough) in price where the seller used the old - electrics not tested - so any advice on fixing electrics feel free to offer up

So - opened up the falcon and started to play with wires - just making sure connections good etc. and tried to improve the touch points in battery container and wiz bang - she came to life….

Jumping right the end of the line for these ones - but too good a deal to pass up.

Quick sidestep from POTF2 - from the US Amazon - think I will have to open it up…
Really liking the look of these. May have to investigate further!?

Back on POTT2 and the first of my three holy grail figures - the Max Rebo sets.
These are lovely and still the best band sets ever in my opinion.

Great set…as it says in the box neither vintage or modern but "Classic".

Last of my three sets - I don't think this was ever hard to find back in the day but for whatever reason I never got it, also to be a completest I should probably find the scanner crew version - it I'm not to fussed.
Just love it's another falcon.

This is a weird post…….
I have managed to get one of every modern Stormtrooper carded and my focus figure is R2 so delighted when these arrived yesterday.
Really nice figures but when I looked at the paper invoice in the box I remembered how much I paid for them - £50.
Might just be a case of me getting old (or being a tight Scottish git) but I just can't get past paying £50 for 3 figures which in my head should be a tenner each.
Think modern is getting too expensive for me

They look really smart, but I agree, modern prices are getting stupid. Figures should be around £8 for things like the Retro Collection and £10 for Vintage Collection. They probably cost less than that in the States.
