| Good start Andy, keep it up, you really can get some nice mint figures at bargain prices the harder you look! Look forward to the next update  |

| Looks good Andy. Make sure and save that picture. It's always fun to see how a collection progresses. Also, I see Luke Jedi is so cool that you had to have two of them. Good on you.  |

| Don't be silly Brad - your instructions were fine! Just thought I would mention the site has its own gallery section saves you registering another username + pass on yet another site just to post pictures! Sorry if I stole your thunder a bit, your guide was fine really! |

| Great start so far, Andy. Can definitely recommend buying complete figures if possible; saves a lot of grief later on  |

| Andy - Shawn said but it bears repeating. Save this photo! It'll be great to see a starting point and yours in a nice one!
Going forward, Alex is right about weapons. 99% of the time, unless the figs are minty and under $5, it's a better deal to buy them together for the most part. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________ SHEESH!!!!i am not raping anyones childhood!!!! - Darren P.S.

| Some really good condition figures there Andy! ... And 2 Luke Jedi figures to boot!!!! Well done mate!
Be careful when getting weapons for those guys mate - there are many fakes/repros around so check the descriptions and pics before buying to ensure they are the real deal! Jay's reference guide is a good start! Of course, there is nothing wrong with you buying a repro if you want to keep cost down - as long as you know they repro. It when you pay a lot of money for weapons that you believe to be genuine and later find out they are fake that I get pissed off.
As with the rest of the lads, definitely get that photo saved somewhere! It would be great for you see how far you come in a few years time and look back at this picture with great sentiment! |

| Thats a great start Andy and one day you'll look back at that picture with fond memories  One thing ill say as just a bit of friendly advice  If possible try and pick up figures with there weapons, capes etc when you can. It usually only works out a couple of pounds more but its so worth it in the long run as you can spend more than the price of a complete figure on the weapons alone if you have to source them later. Cheers Jay |

| cheers for the replies lads, yeah i agree with what nearly all of you have said regarding buying complete figures as ive seen the price of the parts seperatlely [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] got vader complete yesterday and ive got a fair few coming next week, got maybe ten w/o weapons because they where cheap, won a couple more w/o but there really mint (imho)plus a small head han solo [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] , also a nice vintage sw poster which ive seen on here some where but now cant find it [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] il put another pic up hopefully next weekend ish when there all here and unpacked thinking of maybe selling my couple of ships and just getting figures instead? got a boxed falcon, boxed ewok catapult, boxed cap 2 , couple loose cap2's as well.. if any one here maybe interested?? ive seen some great diaplays on here in the lime light section esp in the glass display cabinets, Andy |
