My Stuff! December 2023 Update

[Cazza]

Yeah, not a very well known piece. Produced in the UK very early on.

Got hold of a few items recently. This first one is a biggie for me- been looking for a sensibly priced SW DSD for what seems like an eternity. DSD & R5 were the first figures I bought on my 7th Birthday from Zodiac Toys in Swindon. Can remember it really well 8) Keep missing out... until now! Got this little fella a few days ago from a nice guy on Ebay who was selling his collection. We negotiated a very reasonable deal. It's not perfect (plenty of edge wear), but overall it's pretty good! VERY VERY chuffed with it. I now only need 3 more MOCs to complete my childhood focus: SW R5-D4, ESB Stormie and ESB Boba (lol!). Dead jealous of seeing all these beautiful R5 MOCs turning up!

Also got this ESB Palitoy Slave 1 box...

Trash Monster (great condition and price- thanks so much to DarthStanley 8) )

Finally a 41-bk ESB Bossk, thanks to Gorneesh.

Eye candy as far as the eye can see.

Wow that is some cool new items you have received 8)

 

[Cazza]

Thanks fellas!

Update time...recently got hold of 3 more MOCs, loose Patrol Dewback and Loose Turret Probot playset. Very happy with them all

The R5 is part of my childhood focus. Been after one for ages- was offered a nice one by a forum member, but couldn't get the cash together at the time. Then another one came up for sale from Ed (punk_pat). I hadn't seen the sale thread, but in true SWFUK style, Carl asked Ed to keep it for me. Top men 8)

My original focus was going to be ESB Palitoy MOCs, but due to Pali prices, I quickly knocked that one on the head and started going for ESB Kenner MOCs. This TFP came up for sale from Iain- lovely MOC, sensibly priced (as usual).

Final new MOC is this beautiful ESB 31-bk from Lee G. I kept looking at it and saying 'No' but I kept getting drawn back to it. Thought I'd better be quick, as it's pretty hard to find and was well priced! One of the best figure/cardback combos IMHO- that ESB logo goes so well with the original SW pic (a bit like R2, PD & DSD).

Been after a loose Turret Probot playset for a while now. Got one a few weeks ago which was just missing the Probot stand. Found one on Ebay straight away, which was a bonus! It's now in the cabinet covered in Hoth figures 8)

Wasn't really in the market for a dewback, but found one at a decent price to complete my creatures line up.

Some great additions Cazza - the turret and probot looks the business with all those figures and the talker 8)

[Cazza]

Thanks for the kind words gents 8) Still a bit stuck for how to display the mocs. They're ending up just perched anywhere they will fit. Gotta go on the wall I reckon...

[Cazza]

Thanks chaps. Yeah, the original Leia one of my fav cardbacks 8)

Will have another update soon

 

[Cazza]

Been working hard to complete my childhood focus this year- nearly there now, but am becoming dissolusioned with my search for an ESB Boba, so have been trying to complete my ESB MOC run. Will post up some pics of my progress in the next couple of days

Meanwhile, I have upgraded a few of my loose figures recently.

Han Solo, LFB, DSC, Grey Haired Ben, Leia Organa, Leia Bespin, most of which came from a friend's childhood loft find. Particularly pleased with the Han 8)

Well that's my Sunday morning gone by the wayside!
Was supposed to be having an early start but got absorbed by this wonderful thread.

Great childhood story and collection Cazza 8)

 

[Cazza]

Thanks mate, really glad you've enjoyed wading through it all! Thanks for the kind words 8)

Been quite busy lately with my ESB focus.

First up, got hold of a decent IG88. Not mint by any stretch, but was a bargain. The WBG was similar- not my fav figure, so didn't want to spend too much. Got the NIkto as part of my childhood focus. Again, didn't want to spend too much on this- has a couple of issues, but pretty happy with it for the price.

Very happy with the 2-1B, C3PO, Hoth Rebel and Stormtrooper. All in very good nick and all very well priced. Anyone got an ESB Boba & ESB Rebel Commander for sale?

 

[Pomse2001]

Some awesome items you have found, love that c-3po moc 8)
