I hate to see what you consider a start after seeing all your awesome Luke FBs!!!!!!!

Good luck!

cheers!

Well your Leia focus has definitely given me some ideas! I just need some more interesting stuff, I know lettered hilts are the pinnacle of excitement and all but I am trying to not monopolize all of them!   

 GREAT job Pat!!!!!!! : )

ps- GREAT job everyone   

Hi all,

Happy new year!

What would be your collecting goal for this new year?

mine:

I think i am gonna start to dip in the saga collection MOC figures since i like the package design.

I also want to continue on my Kenner collection. Hopefully i might be close to completing my loose figure collection by years' end.

I ll also follow the current toys like the 6 inch line and the rebels toys that will come later.

I ll also try to get some oddball collectibles thru the year also.


cheers!

Happy New Year, Bud!

There is already a thread discussing 2014 collecting goals: http://www.imperialgunneryforum.com/t6511-reflections-on-2013-and-collecting-goals-for-2014

Therefore, I will merge your thread with the other one.

Cheers

Marco

Already done Marco, you must have been replying while I merged them.

Finish the old COO guide & find out the origins of the R5-D4 with extra red rectangle. I'm not sure what my obsession is with this R5-D4, but I need to know. Finding one MOC or in a baggie would be sweet

Funny that Pat, it's being bugging me as well  :scratch:  was even thinking of starting a thread a while back see if anyone new anything. I got mine from a guy in England and it wasn't advertised as being the red bar version, he actually had two but used the same pic for both sales so wether or not the other was I don't know. I've also seen several others sell over here, again none of them advertised as having the bar in the sale. Point being, that they clearly where available in the U.S. but possibly over here as well  :scratch:

Anyway, if your going down the Luke FB focus route for 2014, do you need a new home for your LL Luke Bespin overstock????   

For me 2013 was a good year in as far as collecting, Although there seemed no rime or reason as to what I got. But I did how ever get some of the things I wanted to like more ships, A Blue Snaggle tooth, more baggie and Ledy figs I also got David Prowse to sign two helmets.

But for 2014 I am going to try to concentrate on getting weapons for my loose figs which will be tough as I am going to have to take a gamble on ebay if they are real or not unless I find some on here. I am going to concentrate more on my Baggie collection and Ledy collection.

High folks,

On the vintage Star Wars front, apart from this small haul (back in May):



...2013's been a pretty quiet year for me as I've concentrated on completing my Action Force collection.




I've no real goals for the upcoming year, I've achieved all I set out to do (a complete set of loose vintage figures) many years ago now, & will just go with the flow.
