Ricky's(aka Shaky) (UPDATED) Small but ever growing vintage Collection!

[Shaky_BobaFett]

Decided around Christmas to stay focused on the first 12 loose figures and collect the varient's and different coos. I made a nice profit from a loft find in October last year which has funded these figures so far-
I Started with Farmboy Luke ,r2 and Leia organa. Been fun although not cheap with Leia organa !( should have done this 6-7 months back !Lol)
Will update the current Collection next week sometime

 

[Shaky_BobaFett]

So I've Managed to collect most of the different coos for Leia organa and Luke farmboy( lots more to collect I know but I'm happy so far, although Leia organa Glasslite,dark brown farmboy and DT would be nice !). So here's a picture of them in there home!
Also I've got 4 X boxes of Dixie cups and making use of them as a backdrop when I can !
Cheers ⚒

[Shaky_BobaFett]

Ha ha cheers Cazza me old China
I'm enjoying the first 12 of course they are so cool but surprised at how many varient's/coos there are! Dixie cups had become an addiction and the Cardbacks are starting to get there now. Need to update with a photo soon I reckon
Cheers ⚒⚒⚒

 

[hellhippie]

great update . I always loved the luke pants colors and leia coo variants . expensive these days which sucks , but well worth it

 

[Shaky_BobaFett]

Cheers hellHippie! Wish I decided to start this 6 months ago instead of January as regards Leia organa , farmboys and co! Not cheap but bloody love em.

Cheers snakebite! Now moved on to R2D2 and ended up not only getting Dark blue HK, MIHK and Taiwan solid domes but branching off into buying R2 Sensorscope, a Pop up R2(no Saber) and a bargin buy Ledy! Any ways a picture of them lined up
Cheers ⚒

Great updates, so many cool figures 8)

 

[Shaky_BobaFett]

So I bit of a change around ere! With loft extension now due to start this summer and new boiler it's been a time of selling rather then buying , but the good thing is I'm able to display all my oddball items . Plenty I've picked up of late/ still picking up. Enjoy
Cheers ⚒

 

[Snaketibe]

[Shaky_BobaFett]

[Cardbackkid]

[Robstyley]

Love that cabinet mate, great variety. Need to get a display like that on the go. Good job

 

[Shaky_BobaFett]

Cheers Aid and Rob. Currently having loft conversion so messy house meant all my sw vintage is being stored for a month or 2 but as I packed it up I was taken straight back to the mid 80s with the smell and that sense of being a kid and nothing else to worry about accept taking yeh figures out in to the garden to play in the mud & dirt. Happy days

So with the loft exstension completed and boiler moved , I'm back to addressing my collection. A few things were sold but 5 months later and I'm back! Mainly focused on the R2 and c3po but sneaked in R5 so guess I'm droid collector of sorts! Going on a budget so any Mocs I get will have issues , so Cardbacks with bubbles attached seems to be the way forward for me !
I've got a nice R2 Rotj card with partially sealed bubble and a nice R5 Rotj partially sealed bubble. Both present well and I've placed a figure in R2 Cardback but need to get a R5 figure next! These came along with a few Cardbacks which I'll try to complete a run of card fronts possibly .
Also a c3po tri logo moc which was cheap again and couldn't resist! It's bubble has been removed partially or completely (I'm not sure and dare not touch it!) Either way it displays nice in case . Throw in a Kenner baggies from our good friend Iain and looking good.
So there you have it !
Enjoy
