I have added a couple of pics here of the two new figures I bought in my daughters Star Wars display cabinet. I thought I would just post these pics, as I know for most people two relatively common loose figures is hardly a reason to be excited. I received these in the post today, opened them up and the smell of plastic took me back 30 years.
These two characters were my favourites, and the look and feel of them really surprised me, it took me back to a more innocent time, where I could, as a child, spend hours playing in building sand with all my figures and vehicles.
This cabinet is in my eldest daughters bedroom, and currently contains miniatures and some hero clix figures. I cant wait for my daughter to come in a couple of weekends and see the two vintage figures I have bought, I know she is going to love them. I have decided that actually I don't know that I want MoCs, etc. I think the ability to touch the figures, smell them and see them as I remember them will mean I will collect the loose figures and ships at least initially. I may well consider buying some of the cheapest MOCs just to have examples of the cardbacks.
Just thought I would post my entry into collecting, even if it is a low level, and know that if I buy your loose figures my daughter and I will spend hours looking at them and admiring them and sharing memories. At the moment I am going through a rough time with her and how she feels about school and other people, having something else to share is another way for us to share our passions.
Thanks to threaders20 for the figures.
