| - Nice Ledy Luke Jedi, Shawn. Is the Ledy green cape version also on your wish list? - Josh, very stylish R2! Thanks for the keshigomu link! - Crealkilla: to TIG. Factory errors are cool, Fett is cool, combine those and you have something übercool. - Mike_Z wrote:
I believe Dr. Dengar was implying that you should *open* the figure to find out! Sorry for the confusion. |

| Thanks Marco. I had someone else ask me that today too. For now I'm fine with the one version, but I'm sure I'll be tempted in the future. Here's a couple more recent buys that came in today. Early Bird Chewbacca in the textless sw-a baggie which completes my EB mailer. Also, a Palitoy LJ baggie. I only know of one other LJ baggie variation that I need to track down now. |

| Congrats Shawn, completing your Early Bird Mailer. BTW: Bud, Curch's pic is that of a Ledy Stormtrooper. You can check the COO of your figure and compare it to the one in the Ledy guide. Maybe you have one as well. http://www.imperialgunneryforum.com/TIG-Lili-Ledy-Guide-Stormtrooper-h13.htm |

| My most recent pick-up (and new favorite) to add to my loose Jabba's palace focus: a rare-ish POTF One Man Sand Skimmer in tip top shape. I would love to find a boxed (European?) version of this some day, hard to believe these were released on cards in the US due to the size. |

I actually opened a question about this some time ago and i cant remember if anyone was able to confirm that it was in fact a ledy stormie. It has wide legs and thick paint apps. look a lot like the one Curch has... |

In that case, I think it is not a Ledy. Check the links in Wolff's post in your thread below.

| here he is. I cant figure out where he come from... He looke like a Ledy but does not have the Ledy characteristics. I tought he was PBP but i am not sure since he does have a wide stance. he does not have any filled peg holes... He has a 2 line hong kong COO, look like a # 7 on the COO guide.... but i am not sure if this is Kenner north america distribution... |

| Latest Fett pick-up. Boba Fett Taiwan version C9. It comes which I think a Lili Ledy solid blue blaster. I may be wrong but I still love it. Here's the pics of the solid blue blaster. Spotted the bar below the magazine clip. Looks like V6 or V7 mold. |

| Recently got a load of new figures! Snaggletooth, Walrusman, R5-D4, and X-Wing Luke are all from eBay. Lando, FX-7, TIE-Pilot, and Ackbar are all from a trade with a very good fellow on another forum. My favourites of all of these have gotta be the TIE-Pilot, Lando, and Ackbar. The TIE-Pilot is in EXCELLENT condition and I'm very thankful for this one. Lovely figure, super badass as well. Lando is awesome, too. Gotta love Lando. And Ackbar is my ABSOLUTE favourite of course! And just cos I couldn't live with myself if I didn't... |

| Great pics and pick-ups!
Love that background you used for your photos. Is it homemade or something from toy packaging? |

| Hi all - this is my first 'proper' post. Here's a modest newest addition to my collection. I've heard this described as the Star Wars Universe's answer to those coin operated rides that you get near supermarket exits, scale wise, which alone makes them a bit more worthy than the other mini rigs. Anyway, here's an ISP-6 which i bought for four and a half quid last week. |
