Retro figures

Seen these, all of the pre orders have sold out pretty quickly, i do like them and can see them being successful, great price, still going to collect the original figures I had as a kid, though could be tempted in the future

You can still pre order Russ.

Beautiful, cheers

Now that is a cheap trick.
Bundling a really wanted figure with a board game that very few will want!

 

[naughtyjedi]

it is a weird cheap trick. For all the things people may like (a death star diorama for example in the guise of vintage packaging) the board game has not been top of many lists

Freed some duplicates today.

 

[Taffius]

TFA line coming along. Some great sellers out there that i am very grateful for. Cheers guys.

Great pics guys, taff do you have the full force awakens wave?
Thought I'd show off the man cave a bit, added some new shelving units bit crammed in there but I like it like that

Awesome thread and images buddy. Not got all tfa yet but getting close. Need to uodate my wants.

Toy recce today. Includes a newly opened Smyths...hope to find loads to open... :shock:

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

Any luck Taff? Have had absolutely nothing for modern 6inch for months in my area. Might have to make the odd trip to Norwich I think :x

 

[Taffius]

Only stuff i already had. Smyths had no 3.75" figures at all!
Home Bargains had a couple of things, but overall, nothing new really.
Heres my latest opened collection.

 

[Taffius]

Picked some of the 40th Anniversary sets up in Home Bargains. Added vader yesterday to them.
I honestly dont know what to do with them but I liked them for £1.99 ea.

 

[Taffius]

Recently acquired this prototype. Really like the concept in a collection. Just awaiting the packaged production figure for display with it.

Found the new retro collection Princess Leia figure. Have to say, she looks really cool, very shiny and bright white. She looks great next to the other vintage collection MOC's!

I also went completely mad at Celebration Chicago, buying the Hot Toys General Leia and Hoth Leia figures! They are so beautiful!

 

[grinchy]

lots of great additions in the thread, those hot toys are really nice, I like them but my wallet doesn't

 

[Mini99]

Leia Hoth looks great, nice collection.

 

[grinchy]

Haven't posted any new additions for a while, heres where I'm at
titanium series first wave, well made figures, love the swoosh on the sabres

Leia, a great likeness

DJ, another offer for a fiver at star action figures, rude not to

Retro Tarkin figure, at first when i first heard it was being packaged with the game i was a bit miffed, but now i have it and it wasn't that much more, i quite like it

elite series vader, I paid over the odds for this as I missed it at retail, but glad to have it,

These next two figures i picked up from star action figures for £17.00 for the pair, which i thought was a good price, i didn't get the rest of the line as couldn't justify the price of the luke x wing, glad to at least have a couple of the line

this next piece is a shadowbox set I put together to show off a signed trading card I got from the artist Ralph McQuarrie, the card is signed upside down but I like it

 

[gammoguard]

Part One.
Here's my modern collection that I can get my hands on - there are other items (Fambaa, Royal Starship, Genosian Battle Arena to name but a few) in other boxes but those will have to be sorted & pictured over the next couple of weeks.
This might be a big ask (because of amount of items) but would anyone have an idea on value (individual would be great but probably best as a group). I'll post a separate pic at the end to get values on a few items as they are duplicates so they can go into the sale thread afterwards.
Many thanks
Chris
