[Thomas/Sweden]

Hi! I'm Thomas from Sweden, guitarist, singer and collector (CD's, LP's and guitars) born in 1973. I owned some Tri logos back in the day, Vader, Stormtrooper and a AT ST Driver around 1983/84. I haven't bought anything Star Wars since then but I recently saw a moc Kenner Stormtrooper and couldn't resist, the first moc in 32 years! Anyway, I've read a bit about the Toy Toni thing and it's sad of course but I might try and get hold of some Tri logos again if I can find some moc's that are ok.

Best regards, Thomas

Hi Guys!

Daniel here from Bedford. 30 something year old, life long Star Wars fan and collector.

In recent years I've decided to cull my collection of all things Star Wars and focus my passion on the 3 3/4 variety. Gone are the Episode 1 Pepsi cans and opened Walkers crisps packets from 1999, and now my loose figure collection is proudly presented in two display cabinets in my man cave. It's by no means the biggest collection out there, but one I'm very happy with it!

I' decided I would like to expand my 3 3/4 love into the carded vintage figures and have picked up a few of late. Setting my sights on them all (as I suppose is natural for a collector!) but this will no doubt be many, many years away!

I came across this site while trying to find out more about the Toy Toni controversy and look forward to joining in with future conversations.

Nice to meet you all!

Thanks
Daniel

Hi, I've just joined this forum as I've been lucky enough to get my hands on a load of 70s and 80s movie posters including some original a new hope posters, two of which I've been unable to find anywhere else on the net so I'm hoping that some of you here can help me.

Thanks. Steve

Hi,
I am in my early 50s living in Kent.
I started collecting Star wars vintage toys about 1989, mainly MOC figures, but also had point if sale items, nearly a complete set of loose figures and boxed ships etc.
In the days before the internet this used to occur at toys and sci-fi fairs in the south east and London area.
My favourite was always Cheshunt sci-fi where you could always pick up some nice pieces, and it was always great to chat and catch up with the traders.
In 1995 I started to collect modern POTF carded figures as well, but by 2004 for a few reasons I lost interest so packed every thing up and demoted the collection to "the loft".
By 2012 I had almost forgotten about "the stuff in the loft", but a chance conversational led me to decide to send the complete collection to auction, along with all my TV related die cast that I had collected before I moved into Star wars.
I don't think that the Star wars bug ever left me, as I have always read about Star wars collecting and visited the SWF.UK forum on many occasions reading the interesting guides on cards and figure variations.
So now the time is right (not according to my wife) and have now decided to start a new collection.
I will be concentrating on getting a set of the last 17 hopefully on the best cards that I can afford, and have already purchased a few bits from fellow forum members, thanks guys.
I think that I will also try for a set of Kenner 65 backs as well, depending on how they come up for sale.
The only rule I have this time is to stay focused on the above and not get off track.
Thanks for a great place to meet like minded people, sory to ramble...
Nick.
