My Star Wars collection, UPDATED June/7 - Celeb IV n' non SW

[bmagni]

i just have one jabba, it actually comes out in one of the pics

[sameerrao]

I sympathize with Magni ... I thought my toy car collecting days were long past and then it bit me hard last year.

To each their own ... even TT and his dolls - he can't live that one down ever!

Impressive collection anyways. Most impressive .

[RC45]

[bmagni]

To qualify as a nerd he only lacks these last two criterion.

3. Virgin.

4. Lives in parent's basement.



Check out what I saw in Thailand...

Those Master Replica Force FX lightsabers are cool. I know 3 guys that have the Anakin, Vader & Luke sabers. I just wish I could cut through stuff with em. At one time I was really tempted to get one for myself but the problem is...

They do brake easily as one of the guys found out so be careful those things cost a lot. I was also able to handle the Master replica saber handles (forgot what they're really called) and they're pretty heavy.

Thinking out loud: I wonder if Jabba has a Jabba figurine on his desk?

Nope - he just keeps a mirror on his desk

Thats actually a good investment, alot of vintage Star Wars toys are worth about $500so just imagine them in a few years, along with your collection in another 15-20 years, especially with the amount you have.

but those 500 usd figures are a couple, not a lot. And they must be in Mint condition, unopened, in the best shape possible. As I remember, a boba fett figure is the most expensive, but from the original series. Unless you're fooled by thieves who sell a "prototype" of bobba fett, which is thrash, a real fake

in the condition that bmagni has his toys he doesn't show to be a real nerd. I'm guessing he likes to play with his new toys

My last purchase was the darth sidious from clone wars

yup the $500 figs are old ones basically and have to be as antonio says in almost a perfect condition.
The Boba Fett youre talking about is worht $15,000, it wasnt produced cause it launched a missile from its back and they later realized it could be dangerous, that why the offer it sometimes as unpainted prototypes, but that doesnt mean its not original, if u find an original of this Boba its gonna come almost for sure with a certificate of authenticity. more info here: http://www.toysrgus.com/images-unproduced.html

i play with them all the time, hehe .
now seriously, i open them cause i started collecting when i still played with toys, and whats the reason of having them closed ? theyre meant to be opened

now bout the new figures
I recieved this 4 new figures today plus one i bought a couple of weeks ago...

#48 is R2-D2 with electronic sound - it says the classic beep beep bop beep, haha, and the unfamous "scream"


#49 Commander Baccara - clone commander, that is the antecessor of snowtroopers


#50 Anakin Skywalker with battle damage - u know what happens to him after fighting obi-wan




The 500th figure - Darth Vader in the meditation chamber, i havent opened it, but u can take the helmet off even when it closed, and i dont know why i didnty take the pics but ill do it later.
I have figs #200, 300, 400 and 500
#200 is Mara Jade a Jedi from Expanded Universe
#300 is a Boba Fett that comes in an special box, u can see the pics of it, i have 2 of em, one open, one closed.
#400 is another Boba Fett, they didnt make a deal about it, its just a regular figure



And last this unleashed Amidala which comes in a bigger scale, aprox 7 inches, this one i was lucky to find in some forgotten supermarket, its really hard to get cause it was removed from sale cause of the boobs as you can see

[antonioledesma]

damn... I was looking for the 500th figure but could not find it in supermarkets. I'm guessing that the flock of geeks and speculators bought each one 3 of those darth vader figures...

btw... are you interested in buying the clone wars SD figures? those midgets
