| I'd love to add something to this thread but its been about 50 pages since I last bought anything!
Great buys all round guys, maybe some of you newer guys could add some things to the top five vintage items thread ?
I will give it a bump so you can show off (just remember to read the rules and get them all in one shot!) |

| I had to scroll back to page 68 to catch up on the recent finds:
Chris: I love the Read-A-Long set... Thanks for the share! It brings back a lot of good memories as I had the ROTJ as a kid (along with loads of Thomas the Tank and Rambo RALs and a Retro Looking Tape Player from Fisher Price to play them on) Lee: Nice 77 back for the collection!
Dan: Nice pick-up dude. Lumat caught my eye with the Pink colouring.
James: Nice Toltoys’ cardbacks... I had to re-read your last sentence twice about the Nien-Numb and 15 others! Was the suitcase handcuffed to him? Well done for not being tempted to rob the guy and making off with it!
Tony: Some lovely figures there mate they all look stunning in fairness! Good luck on the final 4 (and the last 17)
VaderHalen: Welcome to TIG! Well done on your new stash too!
Paul: Cool X-wing Bro! ... Really nice and I love the fact they let the button stay on the Toy for this version. Agree with Tony too! ... I can’t wait for this limelight! Kudos.
Adolfo: Cracking Ledy SD Commander
James: Some more cardbacks... how many do you have?
Lee: some more great figures! You will have to tell the misses to start moving out the tatty-teddy bears from you cabinate!
Wolf: Great collection of PBPs! I didn’t know PBP made a normal tan coloured Rebel Soldier. Nice Jabba too! Unless Toltoys released their own version, it looks like this will be the last version of the Jabba playset I will need so I am holding out for a Boxed version like shown in Jason’s cool limelight.
DarthTad: Welcome to the TIG forum too! Nice set of Vaders there both look lovely! Good luck in your Vader Focus!
Lee: Wow lee nice find with the polish bootlegs! It is nice to see that some sellers try to sort things out right when they make a mistake.
Well done all!

| I dont know where to begin guys! Great Advert Craig! Tony, Paul , Wolff , Lee (and everyone else) soem great pickups all around!! A very unintentional buying week for me. I am slowly moving to a complete MOC collection so just by chance I kept seeing decent deals on Ewoks. Paploo and Lumat are MIM 79 backs , Logray is a standard 77 back and Teebo is a Canadian 65 back!  _________________________________________________ SHEESH!!!!i am not raping anyones childhood!!!! - Darren P.S.

| Craigy - the Ad Slick & COA is just awesome m8, I love the pic of the 5 figures in front of the huge Jabba the John Menzies flyer is awesome too - if you can also post these great items in the Paperwork thread that Uli started that would be great  I will add a few more soon to that thread as well. Finally, despite its recent adventures, your Jabba Playset still looks the biz - will keep an eye out too for that catalogue m8! Cool stuff ! John - the Ewoks look good - nice find and great additions to your MOC collection m8 _________________________________________________ Paul F,

Man that would have been a nightmare!!! I can just imagine it somebody nearly knocks into your package and you respond "Back the fuck off its Vintage!!!" Only for Londons finest to take you down with tasers as the way your protecting your package has set alarm bells off! _________________________________________________ ***THIS PROFILE IS UNMONITORED*** Please contact Darthberizing
