Latest Modern Acquisitions

[boba frett]

Picked these up 4 about Ã'£13 each from the States:

Thats my VOTC & Saga Vintage set complete and a spare for Ebay 8)

 

[inzaman]

boba frett nice pieces and thats a great price for them 8)
Nice to see someone else in the modern section for a change as well

 

[weasel]

Yeah nice figures Boba.
The Lucas stormtrooper is pretty cool 8) , although I really really don't need another focus.

 

[boba frett]

I'll post some more stuff after I've moved - got boxes of modern stuff after going a bit mad last year!

 

[inzaman]

My VOTC Han just received the other day

The case looks a bit scuffed from the pics but in the flesh, so to speak, it is fine. I take them out of the case to display though 8)

 

[inzaman]

Leia VOTC, received with Han

 

[inzaman]

The Leia figure is nowhere near as good as the vintage figure but i like the card. That is my VOTC set complete now apart from Lando, i might not bother as i am not that concerned about displaying him but i might get one for completeness.

 

[weasel]

Gotta agree wth you there Inzi, that Leia VOTC figure is ****!
Good effort on gettin nearly all of them though.
What's next on the agenda?

 

[boba frett]

What's next on the agenda?

I am still trying to complete my vintage loose AFA run, or the ones i particularly want. The modern collection is a stop gap until i can actually find the graded AFA ones i want, however some of the modern imo is very nice, the sculpts etc are amazing.

I have one or two Saga items i want, i will probably get the 30th anniversary tins as they look very nice, the 30th Vintage and thats it; i think.

 

[inzaman]

Got a 30th Anniversary tin, they display excellently imo. I will take a few photos of it out of the box 8)

 

[inzaman]

And the inside

 

[boba frett]

Cool additions Inzy 8)

Were they bought in th UK?

 

[weasel]

yeah pretty cool 8)

Although Ben and Tarkin look like they were stuck on the front as an after thought, way down there in the corner where no one can see them.

Was it expensive?

 

[craignwo4life]

I've never seen that tin collection before. 8)

Are there any more figures inside or just those 4?

 

[boba frett]

Just the 4 I think.

Theres a 6 tins in all - one for each film.

 

[craignwo4life]

Just had a look on ebay and you're right there are 6 tins and only 4 figures in each.

 

[inzaman]

Yes there are six tins, one for each episode, and four figures in each. The tins were about Ã'£16 each sourced from the UK.

Watch this space for more pictures of the tins in this series, they are excellently well made as well imo.

 

[Bollux]

There is also an exclusive set that has the cantina band members in

 

[lee gray]

Cool stuff Boba and Inza

plenty of that modern stuff I would like but if I start then I will end up with no money

really wanted the slave 1 with window box

 

[inzaman]

That would be Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes, again watch this space

I know what you mean, you have to really focus it as the more you look the more items you seem to want; or is that just me

There is some really nice stuff from the Saga range and the 30th anniversary but at the moment i am just focussed on a few items.

 

[lee gray]

When I was going through the Brianstoys mag I was seeing tons of stuff I hadnt seen before and wasthinking, must get that, must get that, that looks cool then after I added it all up, I worked out I could get a decent vintage figure with that money

Must admit scorch looks really cool!

One must have for me will be the mquarrie boba fett as that looks awesome, I am awaiting a 30th vader just so i can see what the album looks like

 

[boba frett]

does the coins album come with a mcquarrie vader?

 

[inzaman]

30th Anniversary ESB tin 8)
