I've always been jealous of some of you guys who have figures from when you were kids.

I had a good collection of Star wars when I was a kid and me and my brother used to have a patch of garden
where we would build tunnels and bases. Mum and Dad built a greenhouse on that patch about 20 years ago.

I then went onto to sell all my Star Wars stuff for next to no money many years ago at a CarBoot Sale

Went round to my parents house yesterday and they have demolished the old Greenhouse to replace it.

They leveled out the ground to put slabs down and they found this...



Not the most exicting of figures, but I was genuinely stoked that they had unearthed one of my original figures. This will now stand very proudly in my display cabinet.

Nice one, it doesn't look too bad for a tunnel rat. And it didn't turn into the tan limb variant

Lol, great find Stu.
Typical it was a Klaatu!!

You need to rule out it wasnt a neighbours kid that liked throwing them around LOL

Im really tempted to go to our old house and have a look around the garden, my younger bro was always throwing figures around.

nice mate, my dad had his loft reinsulated a few years ago and come across a melted gamo guard, me and my bro had "tortured" him with a candle and slung him up there when parents complained about smell of molten plastic ,,,, no its def not out to do with us ha ha

cool story stu.it does'nt look that bad either for being buried for 20 year's.that's awesome.Dan.

I had a similar experience last year Stu its an awesome feeling to find a childhood figure after so many years of not having one!

These are my childhood figures unearthed at my mums in 2009 and pictures of my starwars cake my mum made for my 6 birthday

Congrats on finding that figure Stu. He's been there waiting for you to come back all this time.

That's a really nice story Stu, hope you keep him safe this time!

I once threw a few figures into my garden trees in sandwhich bags and never found them

Jay those pic's of your 6th birthday are sweet.i'm gonna have to go to my parent's house and get up in the attic and see what i can find now.everyone is finding stuff from their childhood lately.i know their has to be something up there in their attic.you know mom's they save everything from their children when they were kid's.Dan

Very cool guys!
The only thing I have from my childhood SW is a SW sound track record.
Sold my SW to buy Joes. I still have no idea what happened to all my Joes.

Lovin your birthday photo's Jay.

how cool ist that , in my case we moved around so much , i know i'll never find anything back

i used to play with them in the plants , something would come up and a week later i'd find them back , great memories , but no childhood fig sadley enough

That's a great find, Stu, well done, those memories must have rushed staright back after finding Klaatu
