Probably pose it mostly with phase 1, I always associate that design with the clone army. Don’t you mean hyper space? You’re getting your sci fi mixed up 😄

Mine finally arrived yesterday. We tend to receive our shipments much later in the UK but I received the shipping email unexpectedly while I was at work, had to reschedule delivery to the next convenient date when I would be at home. Somehow, I ended up getting it with my other preorder, the...

Mind just arrived and I was surprised at Mine just arrived and I’m surprised at how grey the armour is. I guess HT were going for a more weathered look as opposed to looking like he came straight out of Kamino? 😄 It’ll take some time for my mind to adjust, especially as I was expecting a whiter...

Hoping they announce a Boba Fett re-release 😄

After reading everyone’s thoughts and watching YouTuber reviews of the Rogue One Vader, I think I might wait for the OWK version. The OWK version is supposed to be similar to the Rogue One version in proportion and height as well as having a similar helmet. I actually prefer the way that helmet...

I do love the T1 and T2 figures. It's a shame HT never revisited those movies but we got some terrific figures that still hold up really well even after so many years. I have the non deluxe version of the T2 T800 and the T1000, they're some of my all time favourite figures. The most noticeable...

Received my deluxe (sculpted hair) set yesterday, did a quick inspection to make sure nothing was amiss. I haven’t had a chance until today to play around but this is a phenomenal figure. I don’t think pictures can truly do it justice. The paint app on the headsculpt is superb. As someone who...

There are plenty of ways they could have made the box more user friendly. My theory is that they have a very good deal with whoever does the packaging for them. Perhaps, three years after Covid, businesses in China are opening up again and are willing to provide the packaging at a lower price...

Still waiting on my order to come through. UK collector so I’ll only have to wait a year 😆 After seeing some in hand shots and videos of the figure, I think it does depend on the lighting. My other hobbies include painting miniature figures, so my take is that it’s supposed to serve as a...

I pre-ordered the deluxe sculpted hair set almost a year ago. At the time, we had no idea we were getting a skyscraper for a box 😮 I’m curious how this behemoth will be shipped to me. In all my years of buying stuff from Collectibles Direct UK, shipping has normally been included with the price...

I have three pre-orders on the way. Four, if you count the Inart Joker set as two figures. I greatly reduced my collection down to my absolute favourites and it's been almost four years since I started buying again. Space wise, I only display two at a time and I have a pretty robust storage...

Vehicles are probably the bane of collectors trying to combat our addiction! We feel like we have to have the iconic vehicle piece to fill the gap. I bought the Gametoys FF7 Cloud earlier this year (my first new figure in years) and decided not to get the bike. Even though I could afford it, it...

Bit the bullet and got it from eBay (OneSixthMart). I’ll need to wait until after Christmas as I don’t want to risk it being lost in transit while we have all these strikes in the UK. I was content with the Medicom version but I’ve been on a Mandalorian binge. I missed the Hot Toys version of...

So tempted to pick up this version of Boba Fett. For once I'm not overly bothered about getting a twin figure set but that one scene where he regains his armour was phenomenal.

Am I right thinking you’re in the UK? I’ve never had a phone call from Royal Mail in my entire life, just a card through the door if I’m not in!

I didn’t immediately understand what phase I-III meant but now I do! I never got into the Hot Toys Marvel craze, the only Marvel figures in my collection being the original Mk 4 and Mk 6 Iron Man which I ended up selling last year. They’re entertaining movies, fun to watch but not something I...

The line between collecting and hoarding really is a fine one! I found myself buying books faster than I would read them, buying coffee table books became more like collecting rather than buying to read. Same with comics/graphic novels. My collection of figures is at a stage where I don't feel...

The box was unsealed, which I had no problem with, and the seller specified the figure had been displayed before. Sadly, plastic can eventually break down. I’ve experienced this with old TMNT figures from the 80s and 90s which feel somewhat sticky when touched. Years ago, I bought a Medicom...

For me, it wasn’t finance but realising I had too much stuff in my life 😄 Boxes and boxes of comics and shelves of books I had read once or intended to read (book sales…). As well as that, a mixture of intense personal issues and lack of time meant I got to a stage where I wasn’t enjoying many...

Day 1 to check for missing or damaged parts. In recent months, I’ve had to return two collectibles bought on eBay. One figure was oily when I touched it, the seller feigned ignorance about the plastic breaking down. Another figure came with the HT box looking dirty and stained, the clamshell...
