Man, some awesome stuff being posted as usual. I can't keep up after being away for awhile!

Adolfo - Amazing RK & Biker Scout! It's been awesome to see your Ledy run progress through this thread!

John - Sweet Revenge proofs! I love the older figures on ROTJ and the Revenge even more!

Chris - Nice to finally see your puzzle collection all together. They're great!

Neonboy - That's a hell of an MOC pick up. Very nice looking pieces!

Very nice additions to everyone else as well!

Pick this up today. One end is sealed, the other end tape is broken but all contents are still sealed. Very nice! I love stuff like that.

Nice Droids Factory Joe. Congrats.

Hi Darthberizing, that is some cool proof you have there mate

Hi Curch, nice Droid Factory, mate

Curch ...nice droid factory..... one of my fav items is the 3 legged R2D2 !

Need to ask Santa for the wife first, mate. This one isnt all that bad, but I had it in the truck last year when it was 20 degrees outside and guess it froze. The macro setting no longer works. I never knew that the cold would screw it up like that, but it did. It worked fine up to that point.

I don't understand, why did you leave your wife in the truck while it was freezing?

Ok seriously, if she isn't your wife, who is she on that picture?



John: Some sweet proofs!!

Joe: Great Droid Factory. The R2 is still on its sprue?

I don't know. The seller told me had never opened the flap to the side where the tape is cut. I don't want to open the flap either. I can peek in though and see things still sealed in the bags. So I would imagine it is.

nice factory dude. !!!

cheers!

I got these in today. All have been opened. The Star Destroyer is complete minus the paperwork and its missing 2 decals I believe. Does have part of the box insert. The Rancor keeper has paperwork and box insert. The Tie inceptor has been opened but never put together. Stickers never applied and is still in the box insert with all paperwork. I love these things. And the best part about them are the boxes. They are more rare than the toys

Very Nice! I love that TIE Interceptor! Whenever I can get back in the game I want one of those and an Imperial Shuttle. Don't care if there MISB, just want them with the box...

Hey fellas. Been a long time since I posted anything new. And this time it isn't really vintage but I wanted to share it. And there really isn't another spot to do it so please forgive the "modern" piece. I got my first SW proto piece in the mail yesterday.

Here we have an IG-88 "Power Of The Jedi" first shot. Some of you may recall I focus on anything IG-88 related. I have him shown here with a production figure to compare. Most all the details are exactly the same. Right down to the right leg being longer than the left. I'm super pumped to have this addition to my "Iggy Army". The guns are fist shots but aren't a gun that would come with a production IG. The purple one looks like candy.

Great purchases everyone!

Paul - Nice addition to your Iggy focus - that POTJ first shot is really cool with his strange white mid-section and candy coloured accessories
Without asking the actual price, are these first shots expensive to acquire?

Great to see all those cool vintage boxed items too everyone... Droid Factories, Rancor Monsters, Tie Interceptor and the Star Destroyer!
nothing more evocative of that vintage feeling imo than seeing cool boxed SW stuff

Paul-- That IG is AWESOME!! Congratulations!

Joe: Some nice MIB items. The artwork for the TIE Interceptor box rocks, though I don't understand why Kenner didn't put a TIE Fighter pilot in the cockpit.

Paul: Congrats on the First Shot IG-88. Maybe the accessories look like candy, the droid itself reminds me to some other sweetness. Great piece!!

Nice boxed stuff . I never seen the DVSD IRL . But love that paly set .

Poul watch out on the pre-production stuff it gets you hooked like freebase . Just look at me

here is what i have received yesterday! Just the X-wing toy!!!

Here is the box with Luke and Artoo, a few pics....






















Take that you impostor R2 head!!!

and that

and another one for good measure!

x-wing with all parts

very nice, love the box!

PIcked up this Leia recently: Kenner 21B! Not the easiest Leia to find, believe me!

Paul, congrats on the Iggy. Glad to see it finally made its way home. Looks fantastic

Bruce, awesome 21bk. Congrats on landing one.

Bruce - Get pickup on the 21Bk, good looking figure

Bud - Outstanding X Wing. I always get jealoue since I don't have the space to collect MIBs

Paul - Ummm WOW!!!! Great Pickup man, I am totally stoked for you man, great looking piece and thrilled you landed it pal.

I'm going to apologize in advance for my post since it's got one non Vintage and one already shown vintage (but hey, I PM'ed myself for permission and I approved LOL)

First up a really cool surprise for me from Joetxtek for my Birthday! It's autographed by the writer Ernest Kline Totally a cool gift and really means alot. (Enough to warrant an upcoming post)


You might have seen I bought an incomplete Early Bird Kit. Well it's back from AFA with my baggie DT Luke in it!! It only scored a 70 since the POP was missing off the paperwork but it looks badass and I am totally diggin it. A grail for me, so I'm really lovin it



[b]

I'm way behind on this thread, but I have to say F YEAH to Paul on your 88 Proto. That thing looks all kinda cool as shit!

And John, that Fanboys auto for your Bday is freakin' awesome(Joe is a cool friend) and I'm loving the EB set. I'm very jealous of that one. Too bad it had the missing POP, probably an 80 at least besides, right?

John ... that early bird is just bad ass!!!! very nicely done, and it looks fantastic on the AFA case!!

Again KUDOS to you!

wow! Any grade for that John would be fine with me. Awesome!

John like I said in chat last night that looks super cool. Show it any time.

Bud: Congrats picking up the X-Wing with box. The artwork on the early X-Wing boxes outstands the later verions IMO.

John: The EB set is a master piece, very very nice.

My recent additions:





Kudos to Sacko and Jase for letting me have those.
