Collector's Tips / Recons Tips
« on: December 30, 2002, 02:45 PM »
1) What to collect
 
      It is your collection. Collect what you like.

2)Condition
 
   If your collection is based on condition look for items that fit in. Don't jump on every thing just to have it.

3) Patience

  There is alot of this stuff out there. Wait until you find what you want, condition and price.

4) Don't by into hype
 
   Never collect just because someone else has it.  If you like it buy it if not pass on it.

5)  Treat others with respect
 
   People in this hobby have very long memories. Treat them well and you will be treated the same.

6)  Learn
    Learn about what you collect reguardless of what it is. If you don't know something ask.

7)  Thrill of the Hunt
 
   Seeking out new finds is a  thrill and all the new people you meet along the way is great.

8) Golden rule
   send me all your extra stuff...... JK

My golden rule is have fun

Vintage Kenner / Biker scout question
« on: December 30, 2002, 09:48 AM »
Ok I picked up a short mask square bubble biker scout. The bubble looks like it was never removed but the glue looks like frozen spit. All coudy.The pic looks ok but up close it is a little strange. with all my other carded figs I haven't seen it yet. This is the first type of this bubble I have though

Here is a pic;;

Vintage Kenner / Finally got my Fett
« on: December 27, 2002, 09:40 AM »
I am just rambling on but I am excited I finally got my Fett I was after. nothing special just a RTOJ desert fett c8.5-9 ish.

I never noticed that he is placed on a clear backing tray in the bubble. Strange I never picked up on that before. This is the one I wrote about in another forum. I paid the guy and he left the payment unclaimed for a few weeks and no emails. I still haven't received an email but hey the fig is here and in better shape than described...

Isn't it strange that when a new toy comes in the mail it is ,like you are a little kid all over again.
