| Hullo all, to give some vague details - i'm irish, i make movies, i'm into a wide variety of artists and entertainments (current favourites include burzum, primo levi, spielberg, tarkovsky), and, guess what, - i'm a little bit ocd!
anyway i recently broke out all my old star wars gear for display and decided it was time to nab those pieces i never got hold of back in the day, the thing is i haven't looked into any of this stuff for years and years and i was kind of stunned by the amount of activity and variety on e-bay, so the main reason i'm joining the forums here is for advice and help,
i won an auction for a loose at-at with working chin guns earlier today but then noticed the seller was also selling a 2010 dewback as a 1977-89 model, and got a bit freaked. i looked at some pics of new at-ats against old ones and it looks genuine to me, but what do I know? there's a loose tie interceptor coming up shortly too, but how do i tell when it's actually from?
any tips would be greatly appreciated, cheers |

 | Subject: Hello LEDY Collectors and Vintage Collectors! Sun Aug 07, 2011 1:34 pm | |
| My name is Attila, aka Hutt Hunter (who is NOT a Hutt bounty hunter, BUT a hunter who hunts Hutts!  ). I am from Hungary, a small country far-far away... from the USA, but a modest member of the EU since May 2004. Anyway, Dr Dengar, the Lili Ledy thread editor and specialist has found my blog - http://swvintagevariants.blogspot.com/ - and seemed to like it, cause he Forced me to join the Dark Side of Collecting here... I still have a lot to learn about LL variations.  So I am gonna read the fellow collectors' posts very carefully... I BTW specialize on collecting Vintage Star Wars figure Variants, all kinds, but especially those that differ significantly from one another! I have approx. 300 variants right now (incl. Taiwan, HK, NO COO, PBP, LILI LEDY, Macau). I hope to gather useful information here, and have fun, and maybe other Vintage Geeks :bikerscout: can learn something from me, too. So: HI Everybody! |

|  aboard Attila. After seeing your blog yesterday, I was convinced you would feel like a fish in the water here at TIG. So I am happy to see that you decided to make your first post here. I hope many more will follow, as I am sure we can learn a lot from you and the other way around. In a typical relaxed and fun TIG way. Together with Skywalkerhu, I think you are our second member from Magyar (Hungary). I hope more will follow. Enjoy your stay, have fun!!! |

Enjoy your stay, have fun!!! Yes, Attila is a friend of mine. Tons of his figures are from my collection.  Thats why I feel sometimes his collection is mine as well.  A little bit.  Atti, I'm glad to see you here! |

| My names name's Mike and the "vintage" refers to my love and 70's/80's toys and comics. Star Wars a huge part of my childhood and in the early nineties I took my first stab at collecting MOC's. It didn't last long due to me being in my early twenties and there really wasn't money to go around for collecting and I was.. well..living the life of someone on their early twenties. I re-started in 2004 but after about a year realized my level of income could not keep up with staying active in the hobby. The good news was it was enough to keep from having to sell anything I had purchased. Fast forward to today when I now make a decent living and the light bulb finally went off: i can return to Star Wars collecting with no issues. I've been upgrading and getting new pieces for the last month or so and am having a blast! |
