Watto's Junk Yard / Re: Daylight Savings Time
« on: April 4, 2005, 11:25 PM »
It was kind of funny for me because my computers and my vcr's all change the time automatically, while my alarm clock, microwave and tv's don't.  I had no clue what time it was when I woke up Sunday morning!!!!  :o

Back when I was stationed in Alaska, I thought it was funny that we had daylightsavings time.  The sun wouldn't set, so why were we trying to save it? ;D

Yeah Scott, that was me!

Just remember, I can spell, I just can't type worth a damn!  ;D

Holy crap Jadesfire your cat is HUGE!  My cat, Bailey, is a little over two years old and probably half your cat's size!

I just got one of these in the mail that I got off of eBay.  A really nice addition to my collection.  I hope to add the Vader Mickey too.

I picked up two of these on Saturday.  One for my collection, the other for my nephew.

I also got him a bunch of the Playskool stuff when they first came out (including the Falcon) and he loves playing with them.

I should be getting mine back from the framer by Friday.  Then I have the task of moving all the other 5 posters on my living room wall to allow space for this one!

Episode 1 / Re: Nostalgia?
« on: April 4, 2005, 07:01 PM »
I recently purchased three cases of protecto paks to protect my carded collection.  I found that a few of my figures had been damaged in the two moves (Alaska to California and California to Colorado) where a couple of the bubbles had been dented.  Luckily it was only a couple and the figures that were damaged are not super hard to get.

In fact, one was OOM-9 and I just got one off of ebay for $1!

Episode 1 / Re: What's your favorite vehicle?

I would say the Queen's Royal starship just for the playability factor.  I would spend a lot of time just using the remote droid fighter to keep shooting the panels off of it!  ;D

I'd have to say Obi-Wan Naboo.  I just thought it was a great sculpt.

The Wookiee Arcade / Re: Star Wars Strategy Game Coming

One thing I do like about this game is that it looks like we'll be able to control large cale space battles.

Good graphics (like FC had), an intuitive control set-up, andnot have the crappy "Command Point" system and the ability to overwelm your enemy, and I think we'll have a winner here.

Collector's Tips / Re: Keeping up with figures

I use an excel spreadsheet with a different page for each line.  When I built it, I was trying to use some newly learned excel skills, and it looks pretty good with banners on the tops of the pages etc.

Each page basically has item and quantity, I need to add another column for price and then possible a total on the bottom of the page so I can get an idea of what my collection is worth, just in case I ever need to make an insurance claim.  :o

Thanks DSJ, I'm going to need cases for those plus other odd styled carded stuff like the Luke With Bacta tank.

Hey Matt,

Welcome on over, glad to see you.  I'll have you know that I have the entire video games section devoted to Force Commander and its raw greatness in holding together the RTS genre for Star Wars gaming single-handedly.

:)

Why does this not suprise me in the least???

Oh, and JesseVader, my collecting focus is anything but focused!  Although I particularly like to get exclusives, the NASCAR SW cars some of the Disney stuff (I have this Jedi academy pendant on my wall that I really like) and of course the movie posters (I now have all six!).  I still, however, like the 3.75 inch figures although I stopped trying to be a completeist after the POTJ line.

Hey Bobafett14...I just got three cases of Protecto-paks and they're awesome!

Also nice that they're less expensive than the Star Cases.

Will the Oscar cases hold figures like the Max Rebo Band Pairs, Princess Leia 2-packs, Shirtless Maul and other odd sized large carded figures like that?
