what did you get today?

I am keeping the Gam Guard and Wicket carded. Ackbar does look good loose though.

I have not heard from J1M. BCA 15 is currently under way and the page is not updated.

Was wondering about the BCA. I thought it should have been going by now.

Can you give us some info?

Here are the catagories:

Best item you picked up for under $20
Best Han Solo Collection
Best Collection of Store displays
Best Over All Collection
Best Scene recreation New Year

The run time:

Dec 18-Feb-18

What the page will look like:

Last night I bought a new shelf and an expensive furry pillow case for snow (70% off). I started to clean my collection and move things around. Didn't get very far but it is a work in progress.







I cut the pillow case in half because I needed more snow and each side had a different texture. At least I can clean this when it gets dusty. I was going to use cotton or something but wouldn't be able to clean it.

If anyone has any Hoth stuff they want to get rid of let me know.

Also just went to Target and no vintage boxed vehicles at all. I'll try the other Target tomorrow. The exclusice 2 packs are the only things on sale for $10.89.

My Target has marked the Vintage 9 pack down to only 34.00. I saw a few, then each day one or two more get sold. I don't know if they have any left or not.

I have not seen Vintage vehicles there for a few weeks. The Hoth battlepacks have also sold out. There is another Target fairly close to my house, so I might check them out this weekend and see if they have anything. I am still going to pass on the 9 pack, just because I have those figures at least once. It is a pretty big item if left in the package and will take up too much room.

I just got the hook up at Walmart! Thank you Curto! I found the last two Jabbas on the shelves for $19 each. I bought one for me and one for my son for our birthdays this spring. The other Walmart didn't have any at all. The other Target has no vintage ships left. I guess I'm not getting a Snowspeeder on clearance. Oh well, they'll come around again or I'll get something on ebay.

$19 - That is amazing!!!

Yet agaim the UK did not get this item!

Got Quinlan Vos today from a scummer.

Hi all

Sorry for being off the radar for the past few weeks - went to visit family in Scotland over the Christmas period. The BCA page is up and linked from the main site page - it is also advertised on the facebook page.

DJ - Thanks for picking up the Gam guard - Send me an email with costings and I'll get it Paypalled - great gifts too (two snaggletooths)

Well done Darth for being the 1st member to post so many messages that you have moved onto a new series of award images.

I'll be back on line for our regular chats from now on.

Happy 2011

Here are a couple more items I got for Christmas.


This is for the whole family but my wife wanted it really bad.


My wife also got this for my desk here.


And this was awesome. On New Years day each year this place, Bargain Books, has a half off sale. We found this hardcover in the used section marked $2.00 so I got it for $1.00. It's like brand new!


My wife got this graphic novel with a coupon at Borders. ***SPOILER***If you guys didn't know, this graphic novel is a Bobacentric story. It ties in with the game and novel but I heard it is about Boba Fett a lot or from his point of view or something like that.


She also got this with a coupon at Borders. I can't wait to read this! The Darth Bane books and TPBs have been some of the best in my opinion.

Very cool gifts Adam! I like the clock, but don't know if I will get one. Maybe I should, so I have a clock for my Star Wars room!

I really hope to get it done this spring. It will take some work, but I have waited long enough! LOL

Glad you had a nice trip James! Send me a message about the parts and I will see what I can do!

Thank you J1M!

Picked up the one and only Undead Geonosian from the CW wave. No other figuers were there from this wave.

Picked up carded Legends Zuckuss at store

Hit a little good luck today. Found the four OT figures from Vintage wave 5 today. I plan to open these anyway, which is good because ALL the cards from the case have a really nasty crease along the top. Also saw Gree and the Utapau trooper as well. The only figure missing from the wave was Yoda. I am still on the fence about him anyway.

I did notice something REALLY strange about this wave. Normally, on the cardback where the barcode is printed it lists the figure item number, the name of the figure and Proof of purchase.
This is of course followed by the barcode. All the figures I bought today have a generic sticker covering the printed cardback. I guess it still shows the item number, but it has been extended. Hard to describe, but I will take a photo compairing the two and will check with some sources for information.

Derek

Good find

All of the UK figures have barcode sickers put over the original ones in the case of the saga line - I will check to see if it is the same for the vintage line.

Please forgive if any of these have been posted already...

Nice Photos Rebado - good to see you back

I got the Vintage Collection Jedi Luke - but am keeping him on the card - thanks for the info about the card change Derek!

AWESOME additions, Rebado! Clone Wars figures are looking quite well these days. I have picked up a few here and there, but one of my favorites so far is that Shaak Ti figure. Has to be top five caliber, at least in my opinion.

Good stuff Rebado! How did you get that Bossk? On ebay or with the ship?

I've decided to pass on the Aurra Sing for now because I'm sure they will do another one of her in the new outfit from the last ep she was in. I have enough of the orange ones!

Thanks Guys

Hai Adam,I got the CW Bossk in an Australian eBay auction (all the figures from the pack in their plastic still) so have the R unit also.

That Jango card looks great! Got to get one.

Finally, I have found the Third floor for my Death Star! Got it today and can't wait to get the good parts off mine, put it on the new one and have a stable Space Station.

AWESOME NEWS!!!!

Congrats DF. Thats great. I'm glad you finally got it. I finally got the replacement gun for mine too, about two weeks ago.
