Jan 31 2012



Vintage Stand-Ups, I brought them from a VHS rental store in the middle of the eighties.






With my most favourite buddies

Arnold, those two droids are cool... and R2 and 3PO are looking pretty cool too

Cool standups and would look really good as centrepieces to a display.

I really dont have too much free space to display them.
Thats why they (r2+3po) are just standing in the childrens room. But the younglings like them!

Great Collection you got there skywalkerhu, love how minty your figures are.

You know: "There is always a bigger fish!"

Yes, but I used to say: "There is always a better figure!"

Thats why I still buy great lots and complete collections from other collectors. (from Germany, USA, Canada, Austria and UK)
In this way my collection is always moving/changing.
There are always a few better figures in these lots to upgrade my collection.
And this is a great opportunity to be in contact and help other (especially locally in Hungary) collectors to grow their collection. Because in this way I always have many spare figures to sell.

The best way to build a collection IMO mate plus you never know what you really have until you check them out.
I love the updates to

the enjoyable part(s) of this hobby:

- hunt down great lots
- scan them through
- find top pieces / rare versions
- keep them / upgrade the collection
- pass them away, make great deals, chat with other collectors, to be in contact etc...

thats the way I keep my collection "alive"

the hungarian comic adaptation for THE RETURN OF THE JEDI! (Jedi Visszatér)
it released a week ago (!!!) here in hungary as a "hungarian sw fanclub exclusive"
only 500 prints (sold out on its release day! almost impossible to find item after a few hours...)






i have an autographed specimen from its creator (Fazekas Attila) who has drawn "star wars" and "empire" as well in my childhood



my comic saga will be complete after 31 years in february!



Official Vader Football Jersey from 2005
limited to 500 pcs
"VADER 77" on the backside
very cool








a very nice novelization (hardcover with dust jacket) from 1976



and a vintage Fix & Foxi comic (german) with a Kenner ad in it




Droid Factory R2, repro sticker, + ESB box

That ESB Droid factory box is not the easiest to find. And obviously the Hungarian fan club comic is quite rare. I wonder how many languages Star Wars has been translated in?

nice pictures

This is not just a translated one.
This is a complete re-work, check the pics closely!

Love that artwork from the vintage comics.

Are those difficult to track down ?

SW and ESB arent impossible to hunt down here in Hungary.
Pls PM me if you are interested!

the second part of the hungarian comic adaptation for THE RETURN OF THE JEDI! (Jedi Visszatér 2. rész)
for the 30th birthday of the movie
it released 2 days ago (!!!) here in hungary as a "hungarian sw fanclub exclusive"
only 500 prints (sold out on its release day! almost impossible to find item after a few hours...)

after three decades "the circle is now complete!"

I thought I have all figures in my collection since 2008 but I missed one
somehow I forgot to hunt DENGAR down, funny!

after 5 years (!), 2 weeks ago I bought one in mint condition

How could you have missed Dengar?!

Seriously, congrats finishing your loose collection.

Any new collecting goals?

dunno, really )))
I think I sold my old Dengar or so (which was only MINT instead of minty-mint) and forgot to replace him
some weeks ago I wanted to show my vintage bounty hunters to my son, and... "oh my Gosh! where is Dengar????" ))

my next collecting goal is going to be the "French Touch" book from Stephane Faucourt which will be a nice addition to my Miro-Meccano documentaries

and maybe some DeAgostini vessels

A new holy grail, a sealed Pif Gadget 646 complete with a Miro Meccano advert, my first ever SW related item from my chilhood





PIF Poche 218





Taiwan Boba Fett



Playmobil R2

Already commented on the Pif Gadget goodies elsewhere but will say again Cool!

That's a well minty Taiwan Fett too! And funny how an innocent little Playmobil robot made it into Star wars collecting lore! It's almost like the GE5P droid is an honourary figure.

What do you think about it's name? GE = Geobra (Playmo license), 5 (?) P = Playmobil

First time I saw him as a PIF advert (with the cosmos guy and cool spacecrafts) decades before and the first thing I thought about: "Wooww, Playmobil Star Wars figures!!!"
