Beat you to it.

I'd forgotten about him. That's probably who he reminded me of.

And your peeniiis too. Little Richard. "Amma have me some fun tonight, amm have me some fun tonight!"

Beat you to it.

Go Nick yourself!

Ah. Looks pretty nifty, but just last week I got this for $100 shipped (roughly 6' X 4'), so I'm having difficulty spending that much for a typical poster-sized print:

That's HT Spidey for scale.

A lot of people beat me to it

Now that's a pooseey palace. Cool dog and the poster is nice too.

 

[Deak Starkiller]

I want a dog.

I just laughed when I looked at the Emperor. He looks pissed that he had to take a picture next to Anakin.

Go to the pound and get one for (almost) free! That's what we do. That huge-ass poster is probably the geekiest thing I've ever bought, but the wife talked me into it. But it's my collectible room anyway, so it isn't like people are gonna go in there thinking I'm cool until they see the wall mural thing

Dang, we're about at the same percentage. Those playsets and ships really set me back.

I'm edging closer to 80%! I've just made a deal with mfoga that'll keep three more figures in my collection forever. (little Lando humor there )

Hey, I hear ya. I've sold some stuff to pay for pre-orders too.

Pretty sure I'm going to move my Mk 1 in the next couple of weeks to fund the rest of my 2011 POs.

More like 65%

I never even watched those cartoons as a kid. Including those in my SW collection would be like including the Ewok films in my Star Wars movie collection.... lame.

That figure on the left is the only thing that taunts me.

Is it the d__k nose? That scares me, too.

Me too guys... me too. That's one I would very much like to buy in person.

Good call on Yoda! In retrospect he did come with a lot of goodies, huh? On top of that they mde his house and even the backpack to stick him in.

There was something cool about how small he was too! I keep a vintage Yoda in my car. He just chills on this little tray under my dash.

Depends what is considered 100%

100% of Kenner figures?
100% of US kenner figures
100% of Kenner Star Wars figures
100% of US Kenner Star Wars figures
etc....


I will have one figure from Driods cartoon, actually its on its way to me now.

Okay then, which one?? Boba?

No dogs right now, kids are too little. My son almost tossed his Thundercracker across the room because he got frustrated. I can't have him being mean to the dog until he learns to be cool to animals. And my youngest is only 7 months old. But soon, maybe at Christmas. "Cool" people have given me ____ about my toy room aka man cave, flock em'. Seriously, it looks nice Sam. I am going to pick up some pieces of art and display them behind a few collectibles soon enough. I have Coco building me some pedestals soon. I have plans...

Also, I am thinking about picking one of these up at Ikea for my Kenner (SW, Droids, Ewoks, and ROTLA) collections. What do you guys think?

Still paying off last year's POs? Wow. You've got an addiction problem.

Looks like nice shelf Deak... only think I don't like is that wood on the doors would obscure some of the view, but aside from that it looks great.

Not bad, but you might try to find something with glass sides so you can see them in all their glory.

Cool man, let me know how much it goes for. I know there have been rumblings of HT producing another MK.I but I don't know how it will compare, and how much it will cost! I really feel the HT bubble is about to burst. I could be wrong, but we'll see. Also I watched Droids and Ewoks as a kid, they're terrible but it was the only SW I had at the time. I don't know guys, once you all finish your Kenner collections I think you'll start to give into the idea of Droids and Ewoks...just a matter of time.

Yes and yes, but that's why characters like the Rancor Keeper and Charles Bronson the Bespin Security guard will be on the sides of the display. Kenner humor *snort*!

2011 I mean... Just to cover Cap, Indy and Superman. I'm going to Disneyland with the fam in October and I'm in my second wedding in three weeks tomorrow, so that's ran me another 1500 between tuxes, bachelor parties, gifts, wife buying clothes to wear, etc... Anyway, may as well move a figure to cover three more.

I honestly think the "Mark 1" was really just an idiot mixing up that and the Iron Monger. Just my opinion.

I'm about to drop some money on the eFX McQuarrie Vader helmet. After that, I plan to get back into some vintage pick ups.
