| LOL no, but I would say about a third of it is Star Wars stuff. I have an old ROTJ book case in there, the Vader Standie, a couple older TRU foam core figure displays, a few totes with carded figures, factory cases with figures, the Episode I cups and toppers from Pizza Hut and KFC, books and a lot of misc. other stuff. I'll be moving the stuff from the unit to my house in the next couple weeks or so, I hope. I'll take pics as the stuff gets moved around. | |

| Here is some stuff I got from CV. The build a driods from the Legacy line were both missing one part, found in figures I do not have duplicates of. Thanks to the Hasbo guys, they had a station set up to "trade" for parts you needed. All you had to do was ask one of them, they would bring you over and if you needed a right arm for HK-47, give them an extra part you don't need. So, I finally got to complete both HK-47 and BG-J38. This is the inscription written by Steve Sansweet in my 1000 Star Wars collectibles book. "The Wierd Side of the Force" because we were standing next to the "Commitment Chapple". These are the figures I got singed at CV Just a pic of my newly whitened Imperial Army, as I have been giving figures the peroxide bath over the last couple weeks. The cereal boxes I was able to get from attending a couple of the Collectors Panels at CV. Wanted to make it to more, but there were too many other conflicting things going on at the same time. My favorite is the "Greedo's". I REALLY wanted the Ackbar Cereal from Robot Chicken, but missed out on that one. | |

| I use two different types. The regular stuff you can buy right from any drug store or the Walmart health and beauty area. The second is from a beauty supply store. It is 40% peroxide. They have stuff even STRONGER but you can't buy it unless you have a license for hair.
What I do is try to mix THREE equal parts in a sealable GLASS jar. 1/3 regular 1/3 40% and 1/3 WATER.
Leave in the sun, as long as needed for desired whiteness. I litteraly had a few only take a day or two, and I had some that took four or five days.
When you take them out, rinse them right away, shake out any excess you hear in the bodies, and plop them in a glass of plain water for at LEAST overnight. I don't know what the long term effects will be, if any. Last time I did it I put the figures into little snack size sandwich baggies. They started to yellow again within a few weeks. This time I left them out on my dresser for a while, and did not put them back into bags. I put them in with the rest of my figures, so we will see what happend shortly. | |

| Thanks James! Things have been a bit crazy here, but I agree. A chat is in order!!! Just thought I would show a pic of the weapons score I got at the Super Mega Fest con we went to last weekend. I got these from two different sellers, who apparently didn't pay a whole lot of attention to what they had! A combined price from both sellers for all this PLUS a few items I forgot to photo was $18.00 !!!! There were 7 X Wing cannons, 2 Hoth packs, 6 Gas masks and all the blasters shown. Also all the parts to complete a Logray figure, and it turns out I had one in my beater figure pile who had nothing! The Vader saber and a couple weapons would be more then what I paid for everything! Now for what was not pictured, there is a Luke Bespin backpack, a Kenobie saber with no tip and some of the die cast mico troopers. Three snow troopers and two Rebel Hoth troopers. A couple GI Joe parts, and some other Star Wars mini figures.... I think they must be from a game or something? I will try to get a pic of them soon for help with identification. | |

Still need the AT ST driver
Imperial Gunner

DF, I REALLY wish I could have helped you out last month! Christmas really took a lot out of us, and it will be a slow process to get back to the spending I was doing. LOL
