Hi All,

I've finally got my ass in gear and joined the boards. I've been a member of RS and Starwars Forum for many years. From what & who I have seen here it looks like the place to be

I've been (activley) collecting for 12 years and have pretty much reached all of my collecting goals. Thank God 'cos the price of items nowerdays and the fact that my first child is due in May means that collecting toys would be a no no.

Any how, I will post a lime light of my collection one day but here is what I have.

Full set of Kenner debut header cards including photo variations for all SW , ESB and first 17 ROTJ figures. Loose set with the odd variation thrown in for good measure. All the mail in offers with labeled boxes. Early bird set and mailer, Jedi catalogue pack. Jedi Photo variant figures, Luke gunner Vader, pointing etc. And a few MIB boxed ships and creatures.

There are still plenty of items I would like but I'm here for the fun of it all! And you can swear here too!

LJ,Mike,Brian,KC & Graham!

Hi Graham, all the best for the impending padawan. It does NOT have to be the end of collecting, it becomes the start of a toy investment for your child
You will get a warning before a ban if you swear ( without a good picture )

My names mike just got back in to collecting after about 16 years. I sold all me figures years ago because i had holes in my trainers (haha) always regretted it and vowed one day to get them all back. Its good to be hear and im sure i will be picking some of your brains soon.

Looking For a v/c jawa from a car boot for £1.50

Hello all!

Javi from The Armory of The Jawas pointed me in this direction and then Jay invited me to join the forum earlier in the year after i asked his permission to use a link on my website, but due to very little spare time i just haven't got around to it.
a couple of weeks ago now i had another invite from somebody on ebay with the username cobra_w i'm guessing that's someone here?

Well i have a bit of time to spare for a change so thought i'd pop in to say a little hello!
My name is Paul and have been collecting star wars items on and off for a good 10+ years now. Over the years i have amassed a fair amount of goodies but in the past few years i have sold off a fair chunk of it due to lack of space and the main offender finances. After all these years of collecting i still don't quite have a complete set of mint loose figures, but i do only need a few common ones however, plus the not so common Vinyl Jawa My parents sold all my childhood Star Wars collection many many years ago i guess like a lot of you here. It still bugs me to this day as i had some really nice bits and they were all very well looked after too and always boxed after being played with

I also collect Action Force, Action Man, Doctor Who and some MOTU bits plus other various old toys.

Well i must say the site is looking really good, the weapons section is very impressive as i absolutely hate repro weapons and accessories, they all need to be burned! the lilli ledi section looks like it's coming on nicely too! They are figures i've also been looking to collect and look forward to seeing more added to the archive to fuel my hunt.

I'm pretty busy in all what with having a full time job, as well as selling bits on feebay plus running my own website which i'm still working on and that's not including numerous other projects on the go! But I will try to drop in as and when i get time as there are quite a few things i could do with picking your brains on

hope to speak to some of you soon!

Mike & Paul!

Hey all.... I've been lurking for awhile, but I finally registered last night so I can start posting. I'm 34 and have been collecting since I was a kid. I already have a complete loose collection, but back in January I suddenly got the urge to start collecting variants and expand on that loose collection as much as I can. I've acquired a couple dozen more figures on Ebay since then, including some of the rarer ones like the Lili Ledy short mouth Biker Scout, light brown and dark brown hair Lukes, and the white-molded leg Han Solo. It's been fun tracking down unique variants for figures, some of which I didn't know about until recently. This forum and other sites have been a great resource these last few months in my research on various figures and I'm still on the hunt for a few more.

Oh, and for those of you who recognize my nick.... yes, I'm that guy.
