Hi guys, just to let you know, I`m going to be there again with part of my collection!! , this is the 3rd time I`m going to attend this convention , gladly I known the organizer since the beginning of this conventions and he has work very hard to be where he is standing right now!!...


last 2 times I`ve been there , I always find old friends that sell Ledy items , but As everybody know I`M NOT A LEDY EXPERT, ( But I`m a quick learner thanks to all the Ledy experts of this forum), so if anybody is looking for something special, please let me know in advance and I will really appreciate detailed pics for the item your looking for ( so you make my life easier and I don`t screw it!!!!!)

I know this is a vintage forum.. But this is one of the items I will take over there ( the organizer told me emphatically to bring it over !!)
This was the Star Wars Fan Days III exclusive action figure...Emperor Pink Royal Guard vintage type, please correct me if I`m wrong BUT AS FAR AS I KNOW , THIS IS THE ONLY CUSTOM ACTION FIGURE WITH AUTHORIZATION FROM LUCASFILM LTD. (Steve Sansweet has the other one!!!)

Mexico City convention....Expocoleccionistas V....Aug 6-8 Imperi10

I`ll post more pics from the other conventions.....

From the 2nd convention.....
Before everything started , I just throw all the action figures in there because I arrived late!!! LOL!

From the 3rd convention.....
Before everything started, There were several TV shows in there, this guy interviewed my father and me after his close-up of the action figures!!...IT WAS REALLY COOL THE WAY HE DESCRIBED THE COLLECTION!!....

This ERG is awesome!! And for a good cause. Actually, we are working on a custom miner Jawa (our logo) for our show in October for the Childrens Miracle Network here in the U.S. We already have rights to our Jawa image and just waiting on our contract for the custom figure. So hopefully if everything pans out we'll have the second Very Happy .

How many of the ERG's were made?

Cheers,
Steven

That is a nice pic in the background showing the two different variant coat's for the Ledy Han trenchcoat.I have both of those,the grey/brown&the red/brown.

It look's like they were doing an educational seminar on Ledy memorbilia as well,it would of been worth the visit there just for the educational purpose,i alway's like to learn new stuff.Great pic's,Aldolfo.

Adolfo who was the guy and what was his name behind the blue desk in you pic doing the seminar?

I would also like to see pic's of the vender's there,and see how they have there stuff on display.

Dan. cheers cheers
