Like being 10 again

[weasel]

Was taking pictures and testing electronics on the vehicles for my FS thread earlier and just the sound of the Snowspeeder with the lights flashing on the guns at the front, took me back to being a kid again. I was all set to get all my loose figures out and start playing with them again

Tell me I'm not the only one who's had that feeling?

 

[plantman]

Yeah your the only one.... :roll:

haha

I first read that you did actually sit there playing with your figures again lol

Actually on that subject, I remember playing with them as a kid, making up my own adventures but I can't quite seem to think HOW I used to play with them, like if I set them all up in a line and just smashed things into them so they died or if I tried to make them walk and talk etc lol - strange :?

lol, i used to have 1 guy against the rest, i would have him picking the first one or two off with a rifle then getting up close, never ever ever ever to get the girl though... ALWAYS to escape in the best space ship i had

I remember recreating AT-At battles in the garden , one time we had just set the figures and everything outside and it rained so we ran it all back in again, not sure about other things though - my mate had an x-wing and used to run around "flying" it because he liked Luke , and I used to do the Wampa Kick and knock my figures around the place - theres a thread on RS about the Wampa kick. lol

I dont think any off us have grown up we are still buying toys

 

[weasel]

Yeah, that's true Ron!

How's the Munro challenge coming on? You must have finished by now! Lol

I used to pretend the toilet was the Sarlac and one of my dad's shoes as a Skiff. I got in trouble for flushing two of my figures down the toilet. I remember one of them was Bib Fortuna. :lol:

These kids seem to have it a bit more figured out.

I remember recreating AT-At battles in the garden

I did that when it snowed earlier in the year :lol:

 

[ODB]

yeah who didn't do Hoth scenes in the snow?

 

[weasel]

BRILLIANT! 8) :mrgreen:

 

[PGowdy]

:lol: :lol: Brilliant iDrew. I'd always wanted to do that when i was a kid. I had much more Jedi stuff than Empire and used to always play with my AT-ST in the garden but i never had an ATAT sadly so this kind of scene was beyond me.
Need to do a Luke-TaunTaun scene next.

 

[PGowdy]

:lol: Exactly what i was thinking!
Those are awesome guys. The double ATAT one is amazing but the chicken wire fence gives the game away a bit... :lol:

Man, i want it to snow now!

Perhaps we should run a 'Action Figure Movie Scene' comp for Christmas/New Year...?
