Had an ESB Ugnaut MIB back in the day. Traded it for a few loose figures... back in the day. Now just the PotF stuff. Long sabers. got a lot of those. All MIB. No desire to collect anymore since Episode 1.

Episodes 1-3 (and all the PotF stuff) turned me off to Star Wars. It's completely different with those movies out.

I just about have a complete vintage collection. I fell in with the PotF stuff for quite a while and then when they were producing characters that were in the movie for 17 seconds in the background, I started to get iffy on the whole thing but THEN when Episode I came out, I was simply disgusted with the over-marketing (and how bad I thought the movie was). I sold it all away at a HUGE loss to which I was happy to get anything for and only kept the loose vintage figures and I LOVE those... always will. I have them each in a bag inside an airtight container (not sure if that is good or not).

I am especially proud of my Star Wars vintage trading card collection. I am missing a few stickers here and there (and the x-rated C-3PO card) but these are cherry condition cards. (long story behind that, but lets say that I stumbled upon over 5,000+ vintage cards for free).

I had all of them growing up, but a few years ago I sold everything on eBay except a few of my favorite figures....Admiral Ackbar, TIE Fighter Pilot, Weequay, Nikto, Klaatu (Skiff Guard), Cloud Car Pilot, and Death Star Droid.

I'd like to pick up a loose Power Droid if i can find one, though.

I've been watching for the "First Appearance" Boba Fett.....I just thought that one was cool.

I used to buy all of them but now I just buy the Ralph Mcquarrie and the Star Wars Force Unleashed ones.

When I was a kid my parents got me the Sears and robucks cantina 4 pack., including the rare blue snaggle tooth. I don't have it, but I did.

My first Star Wars figures were a Stormtrooper and a Obi Won Kenobi.

I collected all of the figures from Episode 1 when they came out. (I think I was 12 at the time)

I've got the old Darth Vader carrying case full of vintage figures, I think I have so many some of the slots are doubled up.

They are in well played with condition.

I have the R2D2 toybox. It was big enough that I would always sit in there and read comics when I was younger.

I had a dream that I was at a garage sale and this guy was selling tons of vintage Star Wars and G.I. Joe toys pretty cheap. Every figure I looked for was there, adn it was all in beautiful shape.

I was trying to figure out how much money I could spend when the alarm went off.

Can't afford to collect Star Wars figs (I've got a comic book and Role Playing Game habit to pay for!), but I did pick up a few neat figures years ago. The translucent ghost figures for Obi-Wan, Yoda, and Anakin from ROTJ. The other neat thing I found was a Mos Eisley Cantina diorama which was supposed to have a Sandtrooper figure in it, but instead had a Luke Skywalker in Stormtrooper armor figure!

I bought that sucker up and it's been in my closet ever since. Never opened the box or anything.

Are you selling?

maraxusofkeld · Post by **maraxusofkeld** » Thu Feb 26, 2009 2:31:14 pm

I have a loose complete C-9+ Vintage collection, all the figures from the movies and variants (vinyl cape jawa), blue snaggletooth, all the POTF figures, and most of the vehicles and playsets in complete C-9 condition. Still working on a loose complete Lili Ledy collection, but that will take time and a decent amount of $$$.
