| A few steps closer to finishing my ANH - ROTJ run - 1 more to go and he is on its way to me now... but these came this weekend. Its funny what I was missing. Ackbar? Snowtrooper? Really? haha The AT-ST driver is almost dead mint. His torso is a tad darker than his limbs, but I can live with that. SUper tight and clean and the emblems are perfect. I will need to upgrade the Snow Trooper since his limbs are off. Man, this is a tough figure to get in good condition. I have the accessories, but man.... just a pain in the ass! And I got this from Alex: LOVE the dark boots!!!! And, non Star Wars, but he threw these in too! CONDOR Cliff Dagger I was getting a tad old when MASK hit, but I LOVED CONDOR!!!! Man, a motorcycle AND a helicopter! WHAT!!!!!!!! And the easter egg in Tiggys Diary for today was Cliff Dagger holding a welcome sign for Brad Turner which is Condor's driver. And any New Acquisition post from me wouldn't be complete from me without at least one Leia Bespin. She isn't great but I am on the fence about her hands. I don't see why anyone would touch them up and sell for £1 so I am not sure if it was an odd factory touch up or a previous owner. I'm leaning touch up but its an odd one for sure. Why? Either way, a decent COO#1 turtle neck to add to the army. cheers! |

| Nice R5! Wow! One of the nicest red bars I have seen! Great pickup! Now that's the one I want to swap out with my regular one. I just spotted one the other day that looked OK in a big lot, but I didn't care about the rest in the lot so I passed. ..... still looking .................................................... cheers, Nico! |

| John: Congrats on your Madine miscard. I wonder how they could have mistaken him for Chewie. Ok they both have a beard....sort of. Is this a keeper and will your Meccano Madine soon leave your collection? Or the other way around? Great pre-production Jawa! Paul: Thanks for the review and adding the Playmo Space advert. Brings back good old memories. Did anyone else use the big round space craft as a Millennium Falcon with SW figures in those days? Me and my cousin did. Alex: Great set of O-Pee-Chee trading cards! You are planning to collect them all? Jay: Some very minty loose figures. Love the dark boots Luke Bespin too! I was asking myself who the hell is Brad Turner, seeing Tiggy's arrival pics. Now I know! Andy: Congrats landing a R5 with small red bar. A tough one! Cheers |

| Everyone, great pick-ups! John, wow, very cool pick-ups! I got my 8th ESB figure today. Nothing special in terms of the card condition... it's creased at the top and the bubble has a dent on top, but it's unpunched. 41E. |

| Congrats on the new additions everyone. I have stepped out of my "Jawa shell" and picked some really nice Kenner Canada Star Wars Mini Rigs. I have always loved this line and will be looking to put together a nice sealed set. Enjoy.. ESB CAP-2 ROTJ Desert Sail Skiff |

| You don't need to speak Magyar to know there must be something nice and rare inside it. You may recognise this from just a handful of posts ago. Thanks again, Jay/Psyber. Arrived this morn. |

| @Section 8 ^^^^^ That looks familiar! So I stopped over my pops this morning and he gave me this little treat! Another mini-rig and a Stormy inside! (and oddly enough, 3 US Half Dollars in the drivers area - step-stool? ) Trooper is in good shape, a bit off color limbs - no blaster - but a Stormie none the less! He said that it is down to one more which is cool. It has been pretty cool getting these few things back. I definitely feel like a kid getting them! And I am so happy that they are in nice shape. Anyway.............. cheers! |
