Vintage Collectibles Thread

[Darth Waller]

It's amazing that my collection is still missing some basic figures. I can't complain, though, because I'm dreading when the times comes to start filling in the holes on the POTF figures.

Yep, I know the feeling. ANH Leia was one of my last 5 or so figures... it was nice having one cheap-o figure in the mix with the $60 and up crew

I think this will put me at 15 left to buy, 11 of them from the final 17.

Meesa thinkin' you gonna be broke

Thanks for bringing us back to topic--all this talk with you breeders about saving money for your kids is depressing.

I have a bunch of old school WB Dakin figures in route--pics soon.

Breeders. You sound like my gay friend. I need to dig out my old Mickey & Minnie Mouse Dakin figures. I am sure it was this thread, those are the only things left from when I was a baby. That's it.

I think more people would've stayed in that line had Mattel kept them more focused on the vintage line and not included all that other stuff.

Yep, it's getting annoying... I'm getting a bit tired of the line, to be quite honest.

lol, do you have many left?

I'm glad to have filled quite a few of the POTF spots, but still need some pricey ones like Yak Face and EV-9D9... After that, I think it's just R2-D2 w/lightsabre, Imperial Gunner and A-Wing Pilot. So not too bad for me.

Most of the figures I still need are from ESB, and a few of Jabba's denizens from ROTJ.

Here's what I need:

A-Wing Pilot
Amanaman
Barada
EV-9D9
Han Solo (Bespin)
Imperial Gunner
Lando Calrissian
Luke Skywalker (Battle Poncho)
Luke Skywalker (Bespin)
Luke Skywalker (Stormtrooper)
Lumat
Paploo
Princess Leia (Combat Poncho)
R2-D2 (Pop-up Lightsaber)
Yak Face

Well at least there are still a few inexepensive figures in the mix Waller. But that R2, Yak Face, EV-9D9 and Stormtrooper Luke will definitely set back your daughter's college fund

I'm in the upgrade mode. I went through my whole collection and it's time for an overhaul!

 

[galactiboy]

Let me know what you're upgrading... good chance some of your cast-aways would be upgrades for me

 

[Darth Waller]

I still have an extra closed-belly Tauntaun in great condition if anyone needs one. No broken reigns here.

Nick the Prick! I'll let you know. For reals.

Oh, how much again?

 

[galactiboy]

I'll take the Taun Taun if Deak passes on him

Same here! Considering I own, oh, about 5 vintage Star Wars figures total

I actually gave a lot of them away for some reason eons ago. I used to have the big Walker that would take steps when you pressed a button, Jabba, and like 5 of the abominable snowman creatures.

 

[Deak Starkiller]

Will do.

I dunno Deak, the clear lack of Star Wars vernacular in this post makes me question whether or not Karamzov80 is deserving of any vintage goodness

We may have to implement a quiz, or standardized testing to see if people are worthy

Maybe ask some questions that are only OT-relevant and not tainted by the PT. Or some quotes.

It's funny, that R2 is quite pricey, but it's probably the least desired of all the POTF figures for me. I mean, I've already got the first R2, then there's the sensor scope version I'll have to get as well... Kind of feel silly having to get all these R2s that basically look the same. I'll get it eventually for completion's sake, but I'm in no rush. It's almost like more of a variant.
