| I definitely prefer that display case full instead of empty Shawn, but don't worry only a short space of time and you get a whole new display room to play with! I think you are another person who has a tidy collection, your two display cabinets and acrylic cases for your mailers and Luke Jedi focus make the room really shine, great set of coins as well , almost there |

| Awesome Share Shawn Luke Jedi for me is probably the best vintage figure every made! I got to say the loose figure cabinet is a great idea it looks just like a cardback! Defo a great and innovative way to display loose figures. What can i say about the coin collection! The finish line is definitely coming into view and its been great following your quest for them. I could never have the type of focus and dedication needed to complete one of those sets (i don't thing my wallet would stretch that far either ) Major Kudos :!: I look forward to the December update |

| Those glass display cabinets are great. I hate moving! You are closer to completing a full set of coins than I am to the Cat 1&2s I bet the new collection room will see some improvements & new additions? |

| The first picture is kick-ass!! I mean what a pic: empty shelf....still have to laugh! My first thought was, that all pictures show empty shelfs and cabinets!!! The invisble vintage collection.....one of a kind Nice one! Hope you dont loose weapons on your move as I did! wolff |

| Awesome, I am so glad you got the ref photo when you had the chance, you know I missed my chance at the 8D8 but I would have been annoyed if you had missed out as well!
Not only a great focus but great quality as well, most of the carded figures look shelf fresh! |

That's a fair few mailers you've got there as well mate Thanks Stu. During the off times for SW I collect Transformers mainly from the reissue lines. I lucked out with the Omega in that a local collector was selling up. I always wanted one as a kid as my cousin had one that we used to play with. I started the mailer focus a few years ago. I feel I've been pretty lucky with some of the items I've been able to pick up for that run. I still want to pick up the early bird set to go with it, but imagine that will have to wait until after I'm done with POTF coins. - jaymassive619 wrote:

Cheers Jay No problem Jay. Theearth turned up the reference photos earlier in the year. Luckily they haven't removed the page yet so you can still see what was available. I was hoping mine would have had the confidential stamp shown at the top of the page, but it did not. However, it does have the copyright stamp of 1982 that I have shown in the corner on my photo. |

| Shawn I love that cabinet display case you made for your loose figs.
Whoever said it... they nailed it on the button!!! Looks like the cardback!!!
I would like some kinda display case eventually. But something with locking doors!!!
So when my wife and I start a family my kids cant get their grubby hands on em!!!! |

So when my wife and I start a family my kids cant get their grubby hands on em!!!! I agree. I haven't hung the case up at my new place yet for that reason. I've been doing a bit of research to see about doing a proper front with locking doors. That should also help with dust as it is a pain to dust it out every so often. I've added pictures of the Lili Ledy Cardback that 3 elves sent to me. Hopefully this year I can add a complete figure to go with it. |

| Shawn the collection is looking great mate. Luke jedi is my favourite figure too, and the one i have most memories of as a child.
If i was going to do a focus he would be a strong contender. I bet there are still loads and loads of bits to hunt down. |

| I'll think yours is one of the best displayed collections i've seen m8. I think you're missing a few things in that frame tho! |
