We've just had a bunch of home improvement projects done:

- New carpet on the main level of the house, plus new furniture for my wife's home office.

- New shades on some of our windows, plus vertical blinds on the walkout door in the media room...I can now get it as dark as the inside of a cow!

- Replaced the pantry doors in the kitchen.  I've never done any staining before so it was a fun little project.  I now want to replace all the doors on the upper two levels of the house!

Next up is getting a nice high quality sliding glass door for our kitchen and we're getting the exterior of the house painted.

Yeah...that's what I meant.

Thoughts?

Looks pretty good.

Just comparing the 3 3/4" lines I'd say Vintage made the better "toys" because starting from day one the figures fit into the ships!  It's only been in the last two years I've been able to get a modern Chewbacca into the Millennium Falcon cockpit.   

From a collecting standpoint, I think the modern figures are much better to display.  If you look at my collection, about 85% of what is displayed is modern.  It's much nicer to display the modern figures because because of the superior articulation and accuracy in sculpts, they make better scenes.

All my vintage figures displayed (which I have great fondness for since they are all my toys from childhood) Are displayed standing in one cabinet in my collection room as a museum piece.

I don't, but I'm working on my shelves to make them a little more dioramaish....still no backgrounds though.

I'll update my collection page with pictures when I'm done.

I like how they have a picture of him and the caption is "George Lucas and Friend".  Did they not know that was Steven Speilberg?

The Legacy Collection figure we got last year is (IMHO) perfect. I'm actually very surprised that they didn't add him into the Vintage line-up as a repack, especially with the AT-AT coming out.

Probably because he's a pack-in with the AT-AT.

One of my favorite ESB figures!  Mainly because I got it the same Christmas I got the AT-AT.  I thought the POTF 2 versions were fine, but the TLC version is awesome!
