** New pictures right here - i've moved the older pictures somewhere on page 5 **
here's my dark corner.. hope you enjoy
my goal is to display a nice slice of vintage star wars stuff; going beyond the usual kenner line (but still keeping it as a basis for the display) - oh well, check the pics and you'll know what i mean

I can keep looking at those pictures over & over again. I appreciate other big collections ie. walls of MOCs, figure focus' etc. But yours is one of those collections that is hard to describe. All I know is I fucking want it. Just the variety alone is fabulous, add to that the quality and you get wow Just remember next Glasslite vehicle is mine

Wow great collection Hyver!
I love the fact that you have collected some many facets of the vintage line
Very impressed mate if i had to pick favorite (which is near impossible) i would probably pick the Lily Ledy 12 inch R2-D2 which looks in awesome condition!
What are you collecting / buying at the moment buddy?

just looking to fill in some gaps.. the abovementioned glasslite interceptor is a good example. i was in the market for a tie interceptor, and wanted a nice glasslite item (trying to get at least one item from every country that released licensed stuff - a farfetched goal i know, but whatever keeps us going, right? )
the new display will hold most of the rotj era items, and the death star related stuff

It looks much nicer in daylight (or with the lights on ) - the first pictures made me think it was a garage or basement lol
Nice display and collection, good that you really went after things you just liked rather than completing sets rather robotically!

awesome collection! And if you ever need to find a new home for that offerless ESB R2 Sensorscope, drop me a line!! Aside from 4-LOM I think thats the hardest offerless ESB card to find! And thats just one pice of your very large display puzzle!

Very cool Wouter!
I love the 12" Ledy R2! And the little bootlegs!
The display as a whole is very cool as well!

cause i don't feel like cutting up my pali death star, i needed some space for the shuttle as well, and i wanted to use the lineart box for the ewok village backdrop style.
i know, it's fugly now, but wait till i upgraded!
