Your favourite purchase of 2023 ?

Ah, that explains it- as you say, fantastic 75! I've got a 75 12-bk Sandpeople that's stunning, but it has the tiniest hairline split in the underside of the bubble stem. I love it though!

Aside from some great Amidala tat, it has to be my Micro Collection Bespin freeze chamber. Its in a box, complete and completes a mystery itch from seeing that bespin set in a catalogue as a kid and never seeing it until an adult. i now have the three bespin sets.

I've a lot of love for the Micro Collection.

I didn't buy too much last year as i had a few of the more expensive ROTJ moc figures to complete the run but towards the end of the year i couldn't resist this IG-88 41 back, its not perfect but i love it!

 

[Cazza]

Gotta love a MOC Iggy.

I think I managed 8 items this year, which was surprising, as I haven`t bought much over the last years, my favourite pick up, has to be the Power Droid that completed the 20 back run.

Oh I love that palitoy card

 

[Pomse2001]

Great start!!!

Mine wasn't a purchase, but a freebie from a mate- Death Star Canopy.

Wow what a great freebie, are it complete now ?

 

[Pomse2001]

Ah, I see a trend here, all Palitoy items so far, so I had better keep the trend up.

I finally managed to added a Bossk Tri Logo last year.

Bought a few Stormies for my Troop Transporter.
Always wanted extras, taken all these years to finally get a few - remember my Dad reacting as though we'd never financially recover when I asked for a second ST as a kid

And it looks even better with all this stormie

This is my favourite purchase:

And this is my favourite acquisition:

Both from amazing members of this very forum.

Are it star wars ? never seen it before

Here's my favourite acquisition of 2023:

another great bossk

 

[Pomse2001]

Lovely fat lips Bossk. This was my fav pick up of the year. Didn't think I'd ever be able to pick one up as prices were constantly on the up

wow that early bird are outstanding

 

[Pomse2001]

I certainly picked up some super items last year it's a tough choice between these two!

The ISP-6 was v special to me as it completes my sealed & unused mini rig collection.

Also I never expected to get another 30 back AT-AT Driver after letting go my example in 2017.

Wow that box and that moc are beauties, congratulations

Not perfect, but it is still cool and on a ESB card

 

[Pomse2001]

My favorite Purchase in 2023 was a danish childhood loft find that I bought from a very nice guy named Thomas. I was lucky to get in contact with him and buy his childhood stuff. The Lumat cardback with Wicket was the favorite item in that lot

 

[lejackal]

Are it star wars ? never seen it before

the same style was by Harrison Ford filming ESB

 

[supergoose]

Nice pickup. Love those POTF catalogues - think mine is the Swedish one

 

[Cazza]

Lars, yep, Death Star now complete, after many years!

Love the loft find- really cool. Not found anything like that myself for a long time.

 

[Pomse2001]

Yes there are also swedish potf catalogues, mine are danish. You can post a picture of it, then i can tell you if it is swedish

 

[Pomse2001]

Love the loft find- really cool. Not found anything like that myself for a long time.

Congratulations with a complete one now thanks, they are also not easy to find anymore in denmark. 10 years ago, I could find one every month in denmark now I should only be happy if I find one every year.
