| It's been about a year since I've shown all of my focus, so I figured it was time again.  I managed to pick up a few things here and there since then, but it obviously took a back seat while tracking down some of those final POTF coins. I want to thank everyone who has sent me links to items I've been looking for and those who have showered me with a few LJ gifts over the years. It's been a fun journey and is very much far from over.  Childhood Luke, Childhood Force Lightsaber Kenner Reference Photo, 65a Proof, Force Lightsaber Cromalin 65a Blue Saber, 65a (Moulded Face folded cape in bag),65b, 65c 77a, 77a Coin Offer, 79b, POTF  Trilogo 70b, Trilogo 70b w/ Clipper Catalog, Trilogo 70c, 77 Canadian  Palitoy 65a, Palitoy 65a Italian EDILIO PARODI Import sticker  Lili Ledy Cardback, Palitoy 65a Clipper Wrap around Cardback, Toltoys 65 Cardback  POTF Shipping Case  ESB-D Blue Saber, ESB-D, ESB-H, ROTJ-H  3 Pack V1, 8 Pack  Desert Skiff, Canadian Jabba, Danish POTF Catalog  POTF Coin, Lili Ledy Overstock Heads, Lukejedi.info CV Swag  Ken Pruitt Custom 12"  U.K. Odeon & Debenhams Cards  German Lobby Card, Waddingtons Puzzle, Topps Color Key  Do You Dare Ad Slick, Artwork drawn by RS member jpc_art  Craftmaster Puzzle, Poster 1, Poster 2, Oral B Dental Hygiene Lot And finally a picture of the focus on display.

| Love the LJ goodness Shawn!  The display is killer and the pieces are truly top notch! I love some of the odds and ends you have. That puzzle is really cool!  Thanks for sharing! I can't wait to see what else you have in store in the coming months! |

| WOW! What a great collection and super display. I like the tidy look of everything on those shelves. I really dig the Oral B hygiene lot. What year is that from? I love to see those types of odds & ends, especially when they fit into a focus like yours.
Great job! |

| Great collection, Shawn, and I like all the individual pics too. What's also nice about all this is that you have a couple of childhood pieces here Impressive mocs, and the Ken Pruitt 12" doll is just great - I also like how you've complimented the focus with some of the more oddball items like the puzzles and the Oral B set. Some nice paperwork items too. Great work _________________________________________________ Paul F,

| A year has pretty much passed since I posted this, so I thought an update was in order. The highlight was definitely getting my first 3D preproduction piece and I'm grateful the seller had me in mind when it came up. I also delved a bit more into Force Lightsaber items which has taken a life of its own and become a fun side focus. Finally, I upgraded my display cases to Billys from the Detolfs and am really happy with the upgrade. Again, thanks to those who have helped alert me as they've found items that I might want. Many of the buys this year was because of friends with a watchful eye. |

| The new display cabs add a nice clean touch. And I really like the Force saber additions too - that's a great side focus  All looking good! _________________________________________________ Paul F,

| I love your focus, Shawn! Yours and Craig's Luke Jedi focus are a true inspiration for my own Luke Jedi focus. I'm not aiming so high as you are with the focus, but it's great to see all interesting pieces. |

| This really is one of those big hitting focusses Shawn, the newer display cabinet really does bring it all to life & I really like the baggies & multi-packs, was the packaging case for carded or for baggies?, carded I presume.
Great focus! |

| Thanks for the comments everyone. I'll be updating with a couple new MOCs that should hopefully be here this week. - frunkstar wrote:

Great focus! Thank you. The shipping case I own was a solid case of POTF carded LJ figures. A couple years ago a complete case of baggie figures did surface which I'd love to pick up too. As far as I know, the seller of that one never sold the box on, but I did inquire.  |
