Vintage Collectibles Thread

You know, looking at your sig post after post has convinced me to go after more of the POTF figs (I only have the Ewoks - yes, I loved the Ewoks - and poncho Luke right now). I'm either going to love you for it or hate you for it... or most likely a bit of both.

Glad I could help... and I will never judge a man for loving ewoks; I too love those furry little bastards

One just sold on eBay for $470.

Yikes, then make mine in pretty good condition with some paint loss on his boots

(Mine next to a custom Blue Snags I made)

That custom rocks!

 

[galactiboy]

Thanks... I really hope one day to have all of the vintage figures in 1/6; and likely the custom route is the only way to make it happen.

I've had the pieces to complete my Pruneface for ages now, just need to paint and weather some of them.

I don't go the custom route due to cost and lack of talent, but that would be a sweet collection.

Thanks to Dorgmal Snow I also have a Gonk droid in my collection with the vintage figures color scheme and markings

Check out what I found when I went to visit the folks!

Fun fact: Monsters in my Pocket were also called Pocket Monsters. This trademark stopped Nintendo from bringing the Japanese hit Pocket Monsters to the US without changing the name. Nintendo finally decided to change the name to Pokemon.

Why that is a fun fact... never knew that Pokemon still sucks though

 

[Darth Waller]

I never knew that. Shropt is a fountain of knowledge. Keep it flowing, Jay!

hmm. works for me. anyone else having a problem?

Huh. Never knew they had bodies for some of the MadBalls. Weird. I saw they were selling new MadBalls in Toys R Us last year.

 

[sladesuperagent]

Funny how the 80's babies were the gross out generation--why is that? Madballs, Garbage Pail Kids, getting "slimed", Boogers candy, blood splattered slasher flicks, the word barf!

It had to have something to do with Reagan and the popularity of cocaine.

Yeah, I know I'll get hosed. I think I might be able to get a better price as long as I'm patient... We'll see.

lol, yeah I was just shy of six when ROTJ came out. They must have made an impression on me. I still like them - they're certainly among my favourite Kenner figures. I also had the Ewok Village back when I was a kid - it's gonna be hard to resist getting another one, but I'm trying to keep this figures only, for now at least - barring maybe a TIE and X-Wing.

I tried going figure only, but it didn't last long. I got a sealed Ewok Village a couple weeks back.

On the vintage star wars pieces... how big a deal is the COO ?

Yub Nub! Can I ask what that set you back?

It doesn't matter to me, but I'm sure some are rarer than others. There also may be paint differences for the variant collectors.

It was about $150. I know. Me =

No, not crazy for a SEALED Ewok Village. Nope, I can see it. I admitted to a $250 Yak Face. It's all a matter of perspective.

Yeah, I have one of Dorg's Gonks too. Such an awesome custom.

I'm going to film myself tearing it open and post it on Rebelscum's board.

Hey _______s they're called Power Droids.
