Hi everyone, its been a long time, some of may remember me, some of you may not, anyway I have spent the last few years building costumes and trooping with the 501st UK Garrison, now my 4th costume is almost complete, I am looking to revisit my old hobby of collecting mocs :)
 
Hey Gary, I am fantastic how are you? Still collecting? Thought you would have every Palitoy mocc ever produced by now :P
 
Carl Waterworth, now there's a name I haven't heard in a long, long time......
Welcome back to the forum.
 
Hello all,
I decided to take the plunge and join up here, despite not usually getting involved in forums as they tend to take over my life...!
I started collecting bits and pieces two months ago after regretting selling my entire collection off in the late 90s (I had a lot back then!) - now older and wiser, I'm more selective with my collecting, and just look for things I like or have room for.
I spend too much time on Facebook groups buying stuff, I'm not much of a seller, although I do trade with paintings of vintage figures which are hugely popular at the moment. Pretty sure someone here will know my work if they've seen it on Facebook and the like.
Anyway, I'm enjoying collecting more than ever, and while I don't have a huge collection, it's great to be enjoying the hobby once more.

Great people, great feedback and a helpfull community, so i decided to register and introduce myself.
 
Good evening to all. My name's Mark. An original collector as a kid in the 70s and 80s. Had most of everything up to POTF. Gave it all away when I discovered girls and football. Had a renaissance in the mid 90s when I got my collection back and completed it with the last 17 and the one thing missing from my childhood collection- Palitoy Death Star! Left the hobby again when I first became a home owner but for the last few years have been a long time lurker on here. Have got about 30 carded figures, not AFA and deffo worried I have a TT or two. All bought between 1992-1995.

Followed the TT saga from start to finish and thought that the job Mr Palitoy and co did with their investigation was worthy of commendation. A very impressive investigation using open source material.

So now I've had the balls to post be nice to me!
 
Ok Feety but you'll have to wait.

My one and only Padawan's christening on Sunday so will have to wait until after that. They ain't afa standard...but they're mine and I love what they represent.
