| That's the cool thing about this obsession. There will ALWAYS be something to go after, and there will always be folks that share my passion! I sometimes drop off the radar, but I come back! |

| How comes you decided to go for a loose set in such a short time? Had the money to do it at the time or just wanted to see how quick you could do it? I still haven't finished mine after 7 years  |

| Well, it's many things. The ex-wife stole most of my collection back in 2001. Then, I got a bit of an inheritence this month. That, coupled with a strong desire to get back a lot of things that were stolen has brought me to this point. I've been collecting for a very long time, and I wasn't about to throw the towel in because of all the hardships. |

| Yikes sounds like you had a bit of a rough time!
Well, I am glad collecting has found you again , sorry to hear about things with your ex, that must have sucked.
All the very best in collecting for the future + for a brighter future in your personal life! |

| Very nice! That Tie Bomber made it there fast and looks good. I'm sure you'll be on a first name basis with the postal worker by the end of this. |

| There are four cases in the pic. The top two were already full. The bottom two are the new acquisitions. If you like the cases, I highly recommend them. I got them from WholesaleCases.com. I've been buying stuff from Dennis since 1999 or so, and he is JediTray approved! They are $25 a piece for one or two, less if you buy three or more. Now, back to playing with my 15" Boba Fett! |
