Latest Modern Acquisitions

[Mini99]

Another odd one - the figures just look different, but the markings on the Luke are interesting and the partial helmet removal on Vader is cool.

Sealed and only 9 dollars - I won't comment on shipping though
Deluxe and F/X figures and the very odd Leia 2-Packs next on the hunting list.

Again…I've not seen that before.

 

[monkey_roo]

Slowly closing out the figures…

 

[monkey_roo]

Next batch of F/X and deluxe figures
Just the R2 (which I have on order) and the stormtrooper (which I am waiting to see if one pops up at a reasonable price) to go.
After these it is the millennium coin figures and a few vehicles to go….

 

[monkey_roo]

The R2 arrived…. In an envelope… obviously the bubble is cracked so I'll have to grab another.

 

[monkey_roo]

replacement R2 on the way and this arrived today.

 

[monkey_roo]

A
Much nicer R2

Second post of the day.
A little frustrating this time one - was torn between just the figure or trying to find the full carry case to go with it.
Since I have the wedge carry case I went for the figure only, a touch pricey I think, but he is sealed
On the card and complete runs and all that…

 

[monkey_roo]

Ops - and one more.
Never owned these back in the day, somehow never saw the point of them, but 2 down and 5 to go. Also can't see why folks want so much for them….

 

[sith-smith]

Not sure if I've posted in this thread before...

Anyway...love the show, love these retro figures...so why the hell not!!

Just two from the first wave left to get

 

[monkey_roo]

The Retro figures are cool - for me the tick the nostalgia and new boxes perfectly - for all Hasbro's 'advancements' with articulation and so forth - I still think these five-point movement figures are perfect. I suspect there will be many more waves to come

 

[sith-smith]

I have to agree. They are pretty cool. Almost act as an offical post Jedi line continuing the figures from the 70's/80's

 

[Clone Collector]

Loving the old POTF2 stuff, I have an extensive collection and still pick them up when I can.

[Clone Collector]

My most recent purchase, and just love the Umbra trooper.

 

[Clone Collector]

Could be considered old news I guess but managed to get one cheap for loose. I love this thing, it's gorgeous.

 

[Clone Collector]

Went a bit mad on cheap Black Series Battle Droids at £10 each, why not.

 

[Clone Collector]

These were selling for around £5 each on sale so I had a few for loose army builders. Very nice figures.

 

[Clone Collector]

All openers.

 

[Clone Collector]

Just under £9 each for these, been eyeing the deal for awhile so finally bit.

 

[monkey_roo]

Some nice figures there - that Slave 1 is a lovely ship.

 

[Clone Collector]

Thanks, yeah that Slave 1 is aweome. Gotta find a space for it now

[grinchy]

lots of good stuff there, those rebel troopers were a bargain, you'll get lots of different looks out of those

Bargain! My son picked up a few of these as well.

 

[monkey_roo]

So - oh dear…
With my POTF2 collection getting close to done I just couldn't help but move on to Power of the Jedi…. At least it is a smallish line
Down the rabbit hole again….

 

[Nita Nitro]

That sneak preview set is a great starter to the line

 

[sith-smith]

My latest. Just need a loose one now.

 

[monkey_roo]

Love the retro figures. Doubt you will find a lose one though - I imagine they are all in the hands of collectors.

Next wave of POTJ figures came in and one extra EP1 set

 

[monkey_roo]

And a bit more
Some of the card backs here are maybe a bit scruffier than I'd like and I got a kicking on shipping - but that's life.

 

[monkey_roo]

Last one for the day
Box is opened but nothing within has been opened.

 

[monkey_roo]

One for the day
