Nice pick up Dale.  That thing looks fantastic.

I recently sold my loose Micro Falcon, but for the life of me can't remember how much I sold it for.

This was waiting for me when I got home, an Estes X-Wing Maxi-Brute rocket.  8)

I had this back in 77, I picked it up at a toy clearance centre for $5.00 CDN. It was either Tops & Toys or Toys & Wheels, not sure off hand but a little price tag on ST Bridge playset will let me know. So long ago, ahh the good old days. The stuff that was on clearance, I should have gone at midnight instead of 10am the next day when most of the stuff was gone.  :'(

I think the Ledy Emperor with the black Chirpa staff is my favourite.

The Vader's not bad either.  ;)

Here's my latest addition.  Hollow Tube Tusken Raider.  I picked up a Blue Snags a few months back, so this was the last vintage variation I needed.  I'm just about done with vintage now outside of a brown snake for Yoda and another Boushh helmet.

From this moment for all my life. What could I say? Was born to be this way. And what could I say?  Just livin' for today

Did that picture of the ugnaughts just come out funny?  My purple smock one looks Minnesota Viking purple, but those two both look pretty blue to me.  Am I going color blind?

The pics were taken outside in the sun, the pic came out lighter kinda flushing the aprons. I'm just looking at the figs on my shelf you can see the difference so nope you're not going color blind.

The last general release figure I needed (excluding variants) for my loose collection.

The sticker is slightly yellow but I don't mind too much as it looks more "vintage-y" that way.



Now to track down a Blue Snag.  8)

Good looking stuff guys.  But you're killing me.  I can't even remember the last time I made a SW purchase (excluding my Wii Lego Star Wars).  I've been debating getting back in, but just don't have the inclination to do so right now as I'm not sure what I even want.
