Yeah I think a lot of the urban vinyl stuff is proper ****, but these have a good pose and the Vans really set them off

Do you have to buy the vans to get the figures, or is there a plan to sell the figures on their own...they look really cool actually

Promos or they cam e with the pre-orders I think. The Darth one has the best pose IMO, they are on Ebay for about £30

Love Vans, love SW, Love NOS Skateboards but I don't love these.

 

[PIGCITY]

I used to have so many old boards, till I saw how much I could get for them from people who came to the collecting party late. Still have a few but nowhere near what i used to have

 

[Grant]

Whoa Pig C,

you have had some awesome boards. Love that Bod Boyle Dude not to mention a few others. I was picking up a few myself over the last 4 years but I sold all but 3 re-issue decks. Iv got a WTB thread going on over on S&B.com but Iv not had any luck finding any of my wants in close to 4 years LOL. All tho i don't bump my WTB thread too much. That stuff is as hard to get as SW, maybe worse.

Again, awesome collection man,

Grant.

PC.... 8) awesome collection pal...looks stupendous mate

Being the old git I am I remember as a kid in the 70 s so wanting a board for Christmas and my dad getting me a cheap plastic Ashby skateboard, the trucks were crap and the wheels were solid and moulded ...I was gutted...I then went in holiday in Newquay about 6 months later, found a shop and blew all my money on a maple board, the guy in the shop actually assembled the deck trucks and wheels for me...I was a pig in s**t

Skateparks grew up all over the place ...I truly loved it, but as I grew older it died away.

Although, bought an old board at a car boot about 10 years ago, went for a walk in the park with my Mrs and my son and daughter who were older, whipped out the board and flew down a steep incline , could still do a 360 as well :shock: I then went for it and yes you guessed it ....fell off and fractured my wrist....oh how the family laughed :lol:

Anyway...this was my era :wink:

Hey PC,

I'm totally jealous that you guys still get to skate, golf day that's classic man. Id love to get back on a board but its been 22 years so Id kill myself. About 2 or 3 years ago I grabbed one of the kids skateboards and within 10 minutes I landed a kick flip and heel flip and a few shuvets. I was amazed that I still had some skills left. I used to love skating big time. It was childhood dream to turn professional. Never happened LOL. Job = Bills = woman = kids = skating days over by the age of 17/18 LOL. Anyway here some of the boards Id love to find, obviously not all at once LOL...
