Hey Tiggers !! Smile

Just 5 years ago, I shared a story with many vintage collectors, witch was - not to accept the fact that I lost some of my star wars figure from my childhood collection. Watching the OT regarlily on dvd the old figure were dug up by a small arrangement, remenissing the first time seeing A New Hope.

I chose to seek out people and sites to see if they were able to find some of the old star wars figure, and set the goal low. I never expected that I after little over 3 years later had a complete basic collection, with fun variations, and ability to search a little more exclusive things.

I grew up in Holland, from I was 6 and up to I was 13 years of age. So star wars figure for my upbringing were Clippers. I have now had time now to learn a lot about the Danish collective culture also.

For a while I only had one cabinet for display and keep changing it up as I see fit. My first figure as a kid was Barada, and still have him. I was lucky enough to buy a Clipper barada moc, and that startet a whole barada/skiff/bounty hunter tribute. Its still a work in progress and I still like improving it with small purchases now and then.¨

As a kid I also loved Transformers and MASK, and have begun collecting a few of those to. I would like to make dioramas of it all like a toy catalog, in the mean time I´m just having fun building my nerdfort out of vintage toys Smile

Nice collection, bud. I like the Endor diorama how you got it set up. And the Tri/Clipper Barada is the bomb.

The village was broken and basicly got for free. I made sketches when this was a work in progress, but seem to chanse everytime I got something new to the set. Very Happy It was fun to make and I would rather have this, than all the other typical stuff witch I had before, and make it personal Smile
