Chris- cool lot of capes. The vinyl should flatten out well with boiling water

Thanks aussiejames I did not know that trick for the vinyl.

I usually put them inside a thick book and then place the book under something heavy for a week and wait it out.

I may have a few extra Leia Ponchos , a Pruneface cloak, and a few extra items if anyone needs them let me know.

Also ironing works very well.

Just make sure you place a thick towel on the top of the cape.

They come out like new.

Good stuff Beanie.

Those vinyl capes should come out good after running them in hot water.

Dan.

Thanks for the help everyone.

If I get these in Tuesday I will be busy getting these vinly capes uncurled.

I 'll let you know how I do.

Good stuff Bro.

skipp the book chris , james is right , there was a topic on swfuk where someone had step by step , pic's and i was amazed with the result

I usually use a mild soap detergent.Like dish was soap and medium hot water to clean and smooth out my vinyl capes.

i smear the soap on the cape on a flat surface"kitchen counter top"and then put some hot water on it.

It helps the vinyl cape stick flat to the counter top.That way you can slowly work any dirt or other crap that is usually on these capes.

Also dipping the cape under hot water for about 10 to 20 seconds will really make it smooth and flexible.

It's a little time consuming process of dipping and smearing,but the end result is well worth it.

I think this will help you out beanie.

Todays arrivals, jawa,r2 sensor, r2 solid, stormie & yoda.

You are the king of bagged figure's

Dan.

Love 'em Del. Very minty.

Wow those are some nice bagged figures.

Only have a few myself.

Like to get more.

I bought some way back in the 90's from Star Wars Insider.

Top marks on the baggies, Del, all look to be in great condition

nice baggies del , if only i could find some biker scout baggies

a leiah ponch and a wicket would be awsome aswell

Will keep a look out for you jimmy

As always some outstanding additions guys!!

Del the figures in those baggies look in ridiculously fine condition thank god they went to a baggie collector and not someone who would consider what U Grade they could achieve as they look like potential 90 figures!

Yes mate they are so mint.
Hate to think what 'could' of happened to them!

Hey Del, sweet baggies, you really have stuck to building up one hellofa baggie collection.


marc

Cheers mate.
Nothing else took my fancy and the baggies are addictive so i thought i'd go all out for them lol.

I don't pick up many now, but sometimes you just can't turn down a good offer.

First two additions to the AT-ST Focus..... MOC Tri Logo and POTF..........Dont think its much to get you guys excited about but its a start
Tony

Excellent new additions Beanie,Del & HothTony,congrats!

Tony excellent pick up's there.

Mint and sweet, awesome

Dan.

Awesome pick ups Tony great to see you starting to build up your new focus

Thanks Guys and if anyone sees anything AT-ST related perhaps they could pm me

Awesome work Tony!

Those are some FINE additions mate! It looks like you are starting off on an excellent foot.

I think there's a whole ton of Tri-Logo variations for the AT-ST Driver. If I'm not mistaken, I think there's an illusive Macau variant out there.
