Vintage Kenner / Re: My Vintage collection pics.

Business has been quite slow the last month but thats not the reason for sale really.
I had to sell them to fund some new lines for the store without breaking into my other funds.
I'm using the money to start stocking some of the new saga waves:
Wave 3 Battle of Coruscant
Wave 5 Battle of Tatooine
Wave 6 Battle of Endor
Wave 2 Battle of Genosis
And also to stock some of the Marvel legends and expand on our movie maniacs lines aswell as some other things.
To be honest I'm not really all that disapointed to see them go.
They were a nice talking point in the store for the few vintage collectors who visit but most people didnt really appreciate what they were and just asked why they werent for sale individually.
I personally wouldnt have displayed them in my personal collection as I'm more into collecting Sideshow and Gentle Giant pieces and they'd have looked out of place and to be fair there not the most attractive figures.
The main reason I started collecting them was as a hobbie and I had a bit of extra cash at the time. Once the collection was complete so was the hobbie and I wasnt really to bothered about displaying them, before i opened the business they where just bagged up in a box anyway. Hopefully they've gone to someone who will appreciate them but I think judging by the winners feedback he'll be reselling.
