| Are those fishing tackle boxes? It must have been fun going through your 100s of figures picking out the best ones |

| They are tackle boxes or often used for crafts as well. It was a lot of fun! Kind of miss all of those guys though |

| Super minty figures there, Joe. Any plans for a permanent display once you're all done with the run? |

| Maybe someday. Star Wars isn't the only vintage I collect. I also have Vintage GI Joe (going for that run), Starting Lineups, MASK and I dabble in Transformers as well. Not to mention the boxed vehicles and playsets So I wil need quite the display area. I enjoy them the way they are not, but it would be nice to have some kind of arena of toys Joe |

Minty set of figures, Joe!!!
Thinking about variants some day after you have completed the full run?
Cheers

| Thanks! I just sold off over 1100 figures. Many variants and interesting items. But I found it very unenjoyable keeping up. After this is done I will work on my boxed vehicles and playsets. I am also in the market for a ledy fett with removable rocket.

| Hi mate, I love the collection you havde here, I have also had my figures in boxes. But know I am trying to place them on shelves I hope you will not regret selling all those 1100 figures in the future. I sold some figures many years ago and I have first begun to regret it the last couple of years after learning about variants. |

| yeah, I know. It was kind of sad to see them all go. But I was getting so caught up in the variation stuff that I was losing the enjoyment of the hobby. I got an offer that was hard to turn down. I know I had many variantions, but not all figures were in the best condition, I would say only 40% were complete, and again, very frustrating to figure out what kind of variant it was. Now I can use that money to finish getting the last 5 that I need, try to find a lily Boba Fett and work on my vehicle/playset collection. |

| Thank you! Since those pics were taken I was able to upgrade the Sandpeople weapon and get a few other weapons. Plus I got an Amanaman. Getting very close. |
