Wow!  That must've been one hell of a deal!

Items that I picked up in the last week are:

- MIB Rancor
- MIB Jabba the Hutt (canadian)
- AFA 75 Luke Jedi
- MOC C-3PO with removeable limbs 65back ROTJ

Most are still enroute but still pretty excited about these pieces as I've finally jumped into vintage collecting.

Got a nifty box from Dale today in a deal that's been going on for a while (too long).  I'm now the very proud owner of a DT Luke.

I'm very glad he arrived Brent, Canada post had me a bit worried.  :-\

About time you dived into the vinty scene Ryan, some nice stuff you aquired. Keep it going & you will be broke as we are.  :-*

That's what I was thinking ;D but am trying to focus on Vader and Tri-Logo items but should be fun.

Congrats Brent!



I'd love to pick up a DT Luke eventually - but once I finish out the last 5 figures I'm missing, I'm going to upgrade a few, then I'm going to go after the VC Jawa.


I picked up the rest of my co-workers old toys today.  There was a Slave I that needs a boarding ramp, an AT-AT that needs a side door but is otherwise complete, a Jabba's Dungeon, another Speeder Bike, some Star Destroyer Parts, the Harpoon for my Snowspeeder, a few Mini-Rigs and a handful of parts like a Falcon Radar dish.

So I know this isn't the place, but if anyone has any of the following - I'm looking for some parts to complete his old stuff:

1 Cloud car Canopy
1 Ewok Village Drum
1 Slave I Boarding Ramp
1 Slave I Cockpit Glass (this one is scratched up bad)
1 (of each side) Snowspeeder Rear Exhaust Cones
1 Snowspeeder Harpoon MOUNT
1 Princess Leia (White) Cape
1 Ewok Village Rail (the flattest one, I think it only has 3 prongs)
1 Imperial Attack Base Roof Panel
1 AT-AT side door
1 Droopy McCool Mic

There might be more, but off the top of my head that's what I'm looking for.

Very nice, the best thing about the POTF vehicles is the artwork. I still have intentions of getting a skiff and the battle wagon but they need to have the boxes. Very nice pic up.

I picked up a loose Hoth Command center Playset for $20 last week. The cardboard was in great shape.

Is that the one with the same molded base as the land of the Jawa's set only white and the cardboard backing of the Echo Base Hangar?

If so, did you get the figures as well?  I have that set somewhere in my parents' basement.

Holy hell, that was an outstanding score there. Congrats Dale!

Matt: both the Hoth Ice Planet and Sears Exclusive Rebel Command Center playsets came with a white version of the plastic base from the Land of the Jawas playset.

Right.  I had almost forgotten about the Hoth Ice Planet set.  My best friend has that one whereas I have the Rebel Command Center.  Both were really cool ideas!

That's right, it's called the Rebel Command center. That's the one I picked up. The figures weren't included, but I happen to have a spare set anyway.

My very first bootleg, a Polish unarticulated Han.  Not real sure if I want to keep it though.

I just picked up the entire vintage micro Hoth World complete with all the mail in figures and chewbacca with gun. I even got the hoth ion cannon box with instructions. Now I've got to get Bespin World or Death Star World.

Very cool.  I bought the 3 Bespin pieces earlier this year and hope to grab the Hoth set in the near future.
