Hi guys,

New to the forum but a long time vintage Starwars collector. Had a bunch of figures when I was a kid, which when I got a house big enough (about 10 years ago) I reclaimed from my parents loft! Being the sad git I am I kept all my figures in good condition with there weapons etc and had just over 50...over the last 10 years I have been slowly completing the full set of loose figures with their original weapons. I still have a couple of outstanding bits and pieces but almost there! I am know to my mates as wookiee or cheewiee due to being 6ft 4 and hairy! I can be found on Ebay as cheewiee and on Retrobike forums as wookiee (another of my passions). I do hope that this forum is as friendly as the retrobike one and I look forward to chatting with you guys...

Doug (cheewiee/wookiee)
 
Hi Doug! Welcome mate.

When you say retro bikes, do you mean stuff like Grifters, Choppers and Raleigh Burners or do you mean those with motors?! :)
 
I'm Nick and I'm a 44 year old toy addict. It's been three weeks now since my last purchase.

I've been collecting for about 15 years now. Not really got a focus as such, but I'm currently trying to finish my vintage ESB and ROTJ carded collections. I live in Hitchin, Herts.
 
Welcome Nick, you're in the right place :)

Check out some of the sales threads, there's some really top sellers here that will help you fill in the gaps of your collection with quality stuff and genuine accessories.

Cool, feel free to post some more info in the Off Topic section, would like to know more.

I bet most of the lads on here had something similar growing up - I had a Mk1 Raleigh Burner (with leatherette style pads), the gold and black one. That got nicked so I had a Mk2 - good times.

You never see groups of kids out on bikes anymore - too busy with X Boxes and alcopops.
 
Hi All

Have been lurking a while and wanted to say hello!

Still have all my old childhood loose figures and recently decided to buy a couple of MOCs off eBay.

Took delivery this week and have got the bug and will be looking to complete my loose collection and start collecting some MOCs slowly! (To avoid getting divorced)

Be warned I may point stupid questions in people's general direction on here!

Welcome Dave and Nicky, look forward to your future contributions.

Oh and don't be afraid to disagree, this would be a boring forum if everyone agreed. :D

But don't look like your disagreeing, just fly casual.
