Modern collection thread

[grinchy]

just ordered this from collectors den, i have the han already, makes sense to have the pair

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

Very nice pick ups Grinchy, must admit That Luke looks nicer than the 6inch version sadly.

Mr Fett arrived today, opening the box had me really concerned finding just the moc and a bit of scrunched up brown paper for a bit of padding and nothing else to prevent it from rattling about. These are really easily damaged but thankfully it survived still I wasn't best pleased. It wasn't from Star Action Figures though but from someone else I always recommend to people, maybe im just being unfair?....

Oddly enough, apart from the white version released long ago. This is the first 6inch Fett I have got, as I missed the original as well as the archive line version. I'm sure its the same though, whilst I still think they should of updated him and given him pinless joints he is still nice and worth picking up.

And hmmmm

 

[grinchy]

Great pickup there mate, i missed out on the fett, got the carbonised one on preorder so thats something, the packaging there seems a bit naff, should have had a layer of bubblewrap to

 

[grinchy]

Just did a trade for this, the European Luke Skywalker strikes set, i enjoyed the graphic novel on which its based

 

[grinchy]

got this in yesterday the Mandalorian, nice figure on a decent cardback

 

[grinchy]

Also got this Rey on the way, not a bad figure

 

[grinchy]

Got this on the way, loved the design of this droid, on a bit of an empire roll lately, got a fair few items from the latest waves

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

Top marks for that one, an almost iconic little fella. Whilst I feel the Disney store exlusive (I missed out on that one) does have a better shape to the top half of his body, I still think hes a really good offering and probably the biggest droid to ever be released.

I get the feeling its going to be a rather sought after piece in the future.

I agree, this is a great "figure" and so very nearly went for it, but space is starting to get filled very quickly and I have to draw the line sometime.

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

Draw the line after including it into the collection, sort it. :lol:

 

[grinchy]

Theres always room for a droid surely
I to missed out on the disney store version, its gone really expensive on the secondary market, hoping to snag one eventually

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

Ill try and get one too if I can, to be honest I wasn't even aware of its existance until it was to late...... :roll:

 

[grinchy]

Thats what happened to me, i thought they were done with the line, then i saw this it on ebay, wonder what the original price was 25 to 30 maybe?

 

[grinchy]

Got this on the way, love the box art for Teebo

 

[grinchy]

decided to get Admiral Ackbar and the Mando in Beskar Armour, loving the box art on these releases

 

[grinchy]

So i decided to finish of the wave of empire figures, i stuck to the last wave as i had most of the earlier stuff already

Also picked up this carbonised vader, i know its a repaint and i'm a sucka for buying into it, but i liked the effect on the vader figure, can't see me buying more of them

 

[grinchy]

What was that i was saying about not buying any more carbonised,
its Fett so i guess its ok

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

Its Fett, we can forgive you.

Speaking of Mr Boba, does anyone need a 40th anniversary carded Fett? I have a spare, if anyone wants to do a swap? Im after a black series Veers, tie fighter pilot or a bossk.

 

[Slayer2k16]

I've just started a vintage collection i don't really have a particular focus outside of picking them up cheap.
Ideally i'd like to get the various creatures found in Jabba's palace or the cantina and some others.
I did buy the mando & child from star action figures along with the cheap four pack of figures they are offering the others came in a bundle from this forum.
If anyone has some doubles that are mint on card i'm always looking for some more to build up my collection (i have some listed in the wants section but am happy to look at any really).

I'm sure that there were 4.
Your missing this one.

I remember seeing these back when they were released and didn't pick them up as I thought that it was a repack at a high price.
But looking at them now they look great.
