Your custom stuff looks great as usual. I could still kick myself I passed on Dengar to complete the bounty hunter assembly

Gave a "love" react for the amazing collection but sad about the post and you moving on. I recognise those feelings myself but so far I still enjoy collecting the OT stuff.Done and dusted - massive downscale of collection to this. Game over for me, no more SW collectibles after a lifetime of collecting. The oldest piece I have left would be heading to about 25 years old (although I have original "art of" books and posters from back in the day).
Sorry to say, Disney has completely evaporated all joy from the brand. Oh well, happy to put my money into other franchises now...

Still, always sad when a fan like yourself losing the love and passion because of the way the franchise is being handled.
I can't argue with any of that. Star Wars used to be special. Now its "content for consumers"Thanks! Like you I'll always love the OT, but just hearing the name SW now brings too many negative associations with it these days; the **** writing, **** shows, agendas, bickering (Lucasfilm, and fans) - it's just in an ugly place right now and needs to "disappear" for a little while so people can remember what made it so special in the first place.
Now it's just a conveyor belt for corporate greed.
So much goodness there. Beyond the 1/6 figures, I love the vehicles you’ve collected!Done and dusted - massive downscale of collection to this.

Terrific collection, Mandible! Awesome how many big beasts like the Rancor and Jabba you have amid the displays.Done and dusted - massive downscale of collection to this.

I wish my collection could be small and neat like this. Both in terms of display wise and $$$.Grabbed an updated snapshot of my setup. I've officially run out of room, so hopefully Vader isn't released until I've had time to get some more shelves set up.

Thanks TonTon. Yeah, I had a lot more than that before - 1/4 scales, Mythos, Gentle Giant statues, life-size... so much more.Terrific collection, Mandible! Awesome how many big beasts like the Rancor and Jabba you have amid the displays.
I find myself less and less interested in many/most of the newer offerings, despite enjoying Rogue One and Mando, but appreciate that it has sustained some extra OT offerings over the years that might otherwise have cooled off and faded. I used to collect 100% SW but found some enjoyment in branching out a bit to another nostalgic properties we all grew up with.
What an amazing collection! You can be very proud of that!Done and dusted - massive downscale of collection to this. Game over for me, no more SW collectibles after a lifetime of collecting.

Not my collection but thought it was pretty impressive and that I'd share a link...
Makes sense, brother. Tough to corral these collections, they seem to grow and expand on their own like an invasive and expensive fungus!Thanks TonTon. Yeah, I had a lot more than that before - 1/4 scales, Mythos, Gentle Giant statues, life-size... so much more.
Before I decided to go purely SW I had everything from Terminator, Predator, Alien, Pumpkinhead - anything and everything, but I was running our of room - so I decided to go purely SW.
Now I'll go back into others again. Already have the JND The Batman and Prime 1 Dune statues on order, so happy to keep collecting... just in other IP's again
Awesome ! Where did you get that Sandtrooper Bust ? Would love one like that as he's my favourite Trooper design.Grabbed an updated snapshot of my setup. I've officially run out of room, so hopefully Vader isn't released until I've had time to get some more shelves set up.

Thank you, I appreciate it!Hey Vince. What are you putting at the back of your Detolfs? And what are you using as a riser? This is such an awesome look!
PM sent with a couple of bonus questionsThanks! It's ATA armor that I assembled and weathered myself, on a custom PVC wall mount that I also put together.
