Noob Collection

I'm feeling it. I'm getting the potf stuff from a local collector. Most of them are not perfect but the prices are so much better than anything I'd be paying on eBay and this way I can pick it up and take a closer look before I pay.

very nice Picture. Any Special reason you left out Dengar?

Yup, because he's not in the Ralph McQuarrie painting. That's my excuse and in sticking to it. You really lose composition when group shots get too large, with figures or people lol

great pickups Chris, love the dengar, and the beater moc, I love cards that show a bit of history, the scout walker is cool to, nice to see a complete one

Yeah at this pace, my thread will be poorly named by next year lol I'll still be a noob but the collection won't be

great new stuff Chris , love the scout walker ive thought about collecting ships for years but I always just stick to the figures . seeing one in such nice shape makes me think twice though

Yeah I really never thought I would get into the vehicles either, (besides the Slave 1, that was one of my first vintage Kenner items) it just got to the point where I've got most of the loose figures and a few moc's. Kinda tapped out all the local public sources, so I've jumped on a few items as they showed up locally.

Here's a close up of two equally cool moc's lol

Here's that Nien Nunb which may have been mailed out by Kenner Canada. (A remote possibility according to Clint)

Nice ones Chris.

That Nunb looks like it has been folded. You didn't get it sent via my sister-in-law did you?

Christian, that story is vintage collection gold.

That's one way of putting it lol although I would have been tense the whole time not knowing about the case/packaging situation.

But given that they are doing you a favour and are outsiders to the hobby it's excusable lol

That Nien Nunb on the other hand, had a thumb tack pushed through the punch lol this year, by a comic book store..... Oh the humanity

Also, here's my new Yak & Falcon:

Reorganizing my home office today and adding a new cabinet for the figures. Took these guys off the shelf to keep them safe from the cat till the new cabinet is built. Since what I've got of the last 17 doesn't quite fill a shelf, I've got some customs, droids figures and variants to fill it out, resulting in this motley crew

Thats some good stuff right there dude

Haha that is a nice mix of random figs dude!!!!!

The general ubsurdity of that group of figures in a box just needed to be documented

I've got to post this here as I'm spamming the "latest acquisitions"

This is a 12B and there is a considerable bubble crack, but the price just seemed so low that I had to move on it.

thats a great addition dude . and with todays prices its always great to get a nice example to display

Great Canadian Chewy. I'm not sure how I missed your post. Well done.

Great additions mate, love the Chewie, a fine collection to be sure

Well that escalated quickly.

CRIKEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Damn Chris

You can take the "noob" off the thread title now

You got a grey background yet ? I see lots of items we need pics of for our libraries but I'm most interested in the oola section items the most

Those Canadian Micro collection items are something I'll never have to photograph for the library

I'll have to remember to give Chris some of the extra grey background pieces that I have.  The next time he stops by my place for a visit.

The picture doesn't do the room justice.

Wowowowowow!!!

What a joy to look at your collection. Well done, Chris!
