[QUOTE="Cazza, post: 405247, member: 5725"] Thanks fellas 8) My long-term memory is pretty good... shame about my short-term! No idea what happened last week :lol: Got a little update. On a similar note to my figures, I've been trying to source a SW Palitoy box for my original X-Wing. Managed to bag one for a very reasonable price from Brian (Threesheepio) last week. He very helpfully split the box/insert/ship for three of us to add to our collections. It arrived on Thursday and I immediately set about getting it cleaned and straightened out. Amazing how much dirt comes off these things! Used plenty of starch and gave it a gentle iron, before leaving it under some heavy books for the night. Very happy with the results! Here it is with my childhood X-Wing (complete with faded stickers) and next to my recently acquired Gamester magazine. [ATTACH=full]160123[/ATTACH] Also, in keeping with this focus, here's some pics of my childhood scrapbook (shamelessly taken from my other limelight thread).
