Feedback / Brian's toys

« on: August 1, 2012, 11:47 PM »

Just thought I'd give a review on brianstoys.com on a transaction that could have been a bad experience.

On 7-25-12 I ordered a C-9 red card POTF (hologram) storm trooper MOC for $18 shipped... I recieved a C-9 red card POTF (non-hologram) storm trooper.

I e-mailed their customer service and a gal named Heather promptly responded, looked into trying to mail me the right figure, and e-mailed me the next day and apologized that it was actually sold out. She gave me a full refund and said I could keep the figure that was mistakenly sent to me.

It sucks the online store wasn't up to date, but I'm impressed with the customer service.

Power of the Force 2 / My no emblem on chest Fett

« on: July 27, 2012, 06:41 PM »

So after much luck I finally have my red card Boba Fett without an emblem on his chest for a steal of a deal and he appears to be the real. Here's the back story.

Here's a ton of Large pics for you to decide. The half a dozen guys at our local JD monthly meeting thought he's real... I think so to. I just wanted to share the story and pics because (to me) half the fun is the hunt.

Power of the Force 2 / POTF2 aquisitions you're proud of

« on: July 18, 2012, 11:54 PM »

It's not often you find a rare figure out there and buy them for a steal of a deal good price. So post up your past or current purchases you're proud of and the price you paid that made it a great deal:)

Today I got this C9 .01 full circles on hands Boba Fett, what makes him special is that he's missing the chest emblem and a lot of the battle damage silver paint:)

Collector's Tips / Cases for carded figures?

« on: June 5, 2012, 03:11 AM »

Hi, I have a small collection of POTF2 figures, will eventually be 30 figures in all:

I'm interested in protecting each figure in their own case like these snap cases:

Or even making them out of acrylic like:

I know to buy acrylic cases like from toygrader.com is out of the question since they are like $10 each and my figures are worth less than $5 each lol. Anyone know where to buy sheets of Acrylic cheap?
OR
Anyone know where to buy a cases like in the 1st pic for cheap?

Hey!

Mike A. answered my CL ad I have up about wanting to buy red card POTF2 figures that are NIB and he told me about this site.

So far I only have a dozen or so to go before I complete my collection that I started as a kid back in 1995.

Thanks!
