[mumbo]

Looks great particularly the way they are displayed around the books 8) some cracking vehicles too

 

[Jedi_june]

Great figs. I agree with Mumbo looks cool displayed with the SW books. Sweet vehicles too.

Cheers guys, photos are already out of date

Love how you display them on top of books - looks fantastic and really reminds me off playing with my figures as a kid - bookcase was always involved
Your ships are great - love the mint Slave 1

That's a great display. Nothing pitiful about it. Well done.

Cool man. Loving the white Tie and the Interceptor. Always had a thing for Tie Fighters, especially the white one. Was that a rare edition or something?

Your collection looks like mine used to when i had all the books out. Still got em but packed away. Take it you read Tales of the Bounty Hunters? Love the IG-88 story. What a bad mo-fo

 

[Richard_H]

Thanks guys, I love the ships in particular.

The white tie fighter is a one of a kind - it's the only one I own :lol: Never had a tie as a kid, thought they were all white (most are yellow now)

Tales of the BH is awesome. Actually all of the Tales novels are.

Great loose figures, although have to say as an eu book collector, love your books!

 

[Richard_H]

If it was a choice between the books and comics, and the figs it'd be bye, bye figs.
I have many more EU books and comics than in those shots

 

[Spookedhippie]

I fellow book collector! It would be a hard choice, I have a complete hardback collection minus the two landos and would hate to see them go

 

[Richard_H]

Not too keen on hardbacks as they are not as easy to hold while reading. Was every book released in hardback? Never been sure of that. I'm adamant that I'm going to finish every book before the Disney EU spin offs arrive. Took me ages to complete the galaxy of fear novels. Some of them were going for £100 each on ebay

 

[Spookedhippie]

Not every one no. I started with a complete paperback then moved onto hardback as they are a bit more durable. Tell me about it, that set took a long long while!

 

[plantainman]

Looks like you have completed (or are very close) to a full set of figures. What are your plans next? Buy more ships & books or move into variants?

 

[Richard_H]

All 100 figures have now been obtained. Was looking at ships but I've been distracted by playsets.

 

[plantainman]

You appear to have taste for the collectors items that take up the most space

Good luck with the playsets focus

 

[Richard_H]

Just want 1 of everything. Where about in Ncl are you? I'm a gateshead lad.

 

[rob71]

Just saw this Richard, really nice collection and not at all pitiful! Looking forward to seeing updates

 

[tundra9]

Thought I'd commented on this....

Looks great Richard, that's a lot of SW books!!

 

[Richard_H]

Cheers guys, gotta update it soon.

 

[jasdev999]

Well done...minty and last 17 too.

 

[Richard_H]

Thanks. Just need popup sabre for R2 and that's the figs done.

 

[TC-14]

That's a fine collection, Richard- I understand how you yearn for the display cabinets, but I love how they're displayed with your SW books... a real feast for the eyes

 

[Michael Sith]

Richard...don't know how I missed this

The mix of minty figures with the books is awesome 8)
Fantastic collection, the figures are nice too :wink:

Great stuff buddy thank you for sharing....I'm going back through, having a look at the books now

Your obviously a collector true to your first love...books, more power to you
The figures and ships and playset s are fantastic pal
