Vintage Collectibles Thread

[Darth Waller]

I may have a buyer for my Creature PF, but I have a couple weeks to wait for payment. If the sale goes through, it will be time to knock some more off the list.

I saved about $40 by buying the last two from an auction instead of a Buy It Now, so that may be the way to go on the rest of these. Rebelscum has been very light lately on FS threads for loose figures. Most are for MOC figures and ultra rare items.

Congrats on the sale... hopefully your buyer comes through. I'm about 50/50 on payment plans working out

I need to get off my butt and get Bossk listed on here. Or eBay. And I need to try and get Salacious back in the box. Last time I had a buyer for that one, he just wouldn't fit back in there properly. It's a freaking puzzle.

 

[galactiboy]

What were you wanting on Salacious... I remember it being too rich for my blood. But he's a piece I covet

 

[karamazov80]

Can't do it boss, access denied. The network IT guys here are super strict.

Dave said that rebooting your computer might serve the same purpose, but I assume you've already done that.

Yeah, how much?

I have and Dave says a lot of things...like you can be a MOD.

Thank you, sir! It's like a hitlist.

Did you make this sig yourself?

I should have one done up with the Action Force figures, and maybe add the super rare domestic Joes too (Gold Steel Brigade, etc.).

I did, actually. Cheap-style with PowerPoint.

Maybe I'll give it a try. I've never been one for fancy sigs, but I like this...

That is, if you don't mind me copying you, that is!

Speaking of vintage figures, it just occurred to me that someone had offered up a vintage-style shooting Boba for sale or trade to me on this thread... You still there, whoever you were?

Just wanted to share the pile of loot that was waiting for me when I got back from Afghanistan! Lots of vintage goodness in there... but some stuff I probably shouldn't have gotten, too. Things got a little... out of hand. I blame all the extra bonuses in pay, not having to pay income tax, and not being able to see all those packages pile up while I was away, lol.

The online shopping "high" was nice while I was there, though.

Here's a pic of our new chihuahua w/vintage Dumbo!

And just for fun, here's an old pic of my vintage foreign GI Joes... Since stored away, but soon to re-emerge I think. I managed to pick up Tiger Force Sneak Peek, Jammer, Felino, and a UK MOBAT, ATC (camo APC) and Panther (Action Force VAMP) since then. Oh, and Mortal is the con version, not the original from Argentina, but that's fine by me, as if I was ever lucky enough to find one in mint condition, it'd cost me a couple grand at least.

 

[Deak Starkiller]

Awesome pics man, those Joes looking minty fresh. And of course they're super rare. Thanks for your service.

 

[karamazov80]

Wow. I've gotta say, I'm more impressed with those rare Joes than the piles o' packages We've also got a chihuahua (well, sort of--he's a shelter mutt with some chihuahua in him), and he gives us that look frequently, usually while anxiously shaking.

Go ahead, dude! I think it's a fun way to track what you have left.

That was me with a vintage-style rocket Boba. Still have one available if you're interested.

^^^^ cool, and PM sent!

Thanks guys. I'm pretty proud of my internationals. Took a lot of time and patience (and cash). It'll probably be a few more years at least before I can find Gaucho, Blades, Dolphin and Gatilho in the condition I want.

We had a chihuahua growing up too. A lot of people don't like them, but would change their minds if they ever had a chance to own one, I think. When he's YOUR dog he's great - they're only yappy because they're super protective of their home and family. Great for collectors, too - mine have never seemed interested in chewing up toys or anything and too small to do much damage anyway (e.g. no big wagging tail, etc).

If yours doing the shakes, he must have more chihuahua in him than other breeds!

Whatta haul, Prime!! And welcome home!

I went to a vintage toy show yesterday with a friend and managed to buy nothing vintage, lol. The show itself was promoted heavily towards Transformers and GI Joe, 2 lines that while I do love, I have no desire to really pursue. I just see so much of MOTU, Joe, TF and Thundercats at every show that it bores me, blasphemy I know. My wants are too obscure I guess.

I did manage however to win the grand door prize, a 2011 SDCC exclusive Marvel Universe Sentinel.

Two more down, 14 to go.... Bespin Leia and AT-ST driver are on the way.

 

[Deak Starkiller]

I need to post up what I have for sale...

 

[galactiboy]

Well don't hold out on us...
