Got the Sand Skimmer today. Yellow bubble, some veining in card, but overall very nice. Think I got lucky here.

My kids recently picked up the INT-4 for me with a box. I've already got one, but I still love this mini-rig and loved the gesture even more.

Just got a Palitoy Emeror's Royal Guard 65 back. He's got his weapon packaged diagonally across the front of the figure. This guy looks sweet  8)
He's no good to me open

Picked up a Micro X-wing complete with pilot today for $25. Looking for the TIE Fighter now.

Picked up a micro TIE Fighter to go with my new x-wing. Now I need the Falcon and Snowspeeder.

The Falcon would be cool.  The only one I don't have, I believe.... well, I do have most of the figurines (Except for 3-PO).  A friend of mine found them in his house and gave them to me.  Pretty nice of him.

I also have a complete Hoth World. It would be nice to have to Death Star and Bespin. I don't know why I never collected these things as a kid. They are alot of fun!

I picked up both the vintage Darth Vader and C-3PO carrying cases at a local comic and toy show today and they are both in great condition, all the original stickers and everything. Looking forward to filling them up later tonight.  :)

I just snagged my holy grail item.  ;D  ;D  ;D  I've been searching for one of these for years, but they rarely pop up on Ebay and the ones that do are either damaged or sell for crazy money.  This one is in great shape, almost 100% complete and even comes with the box.  Great way to kick off Throw-Back Thursday!

I never knew about the Palitoy version.  Nice one!
This is the way.
