Received NECA 1990 TMNT from ToysInTheAttic today. They are absolutely phenomenal and more than worth the wait!

Hi All
I am looking to pick up a few Star Wars Vintage Collection and Marvel Legends figures.
Does anyone know of any decent online stores in the UK that sell these?
Also, has anyone ordered from Forbidden Planet before? Just wondering how these products arrive as looking to keep them MOC.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks Overdrivetoys.com Indemandtoys.co.uk Darksidetoys.co.uk ^ all are pretty good. And I've ordered from Forbidden Planet loads of times and items always come in mint condition (... I'm a fellow MOC collector!).

I just started buying Pokémon TCG stuff to keep sealed. So far I bought the 3 starter theme decks that were released with the base set of Sword and Shield and the 3 V tins featuring the starters.

Ordered the Zacian & Zamazenta V Tins, along with the theme decks of those two from Rebel Clash. Got the tins from Chaos Cards and the decks from eBay.

Jurassic World Proceratosaurus from Home Bargains, £7.99
My son absolutely loves dinos at the minute so that along with a pretty hit and miss WWE product has pushed me more in that direction lately

Found a listing for a Sealed Rebel Clash booster box on eBay for £98 delivered. Got it immediately.
I feel like the booster boxes are harder to get a hold of compared to when I was a big collector in 2014. Amazon didn’t offer much (well, at a price I’d pay) so I’m gonna have to go down the eBay route for these I think.
Oh and does collecting Sainsbury’s nectar points count as a collectible? Because I’m addicted to getting those too. I didn’t realise on eBay it caps at 300 per purchase no matter the price so when I bought my 1/100 Warrior I was expecting 2000 and I only got 300 😭

Hey Scott!, what do you know about old school Pokemon cards? I collected them in about 2000 with my Grandma, and I have a complete set of the regular set, a near complete Jungle series, some of the Fossil series, and one or two other bits

Like maybe a couple of quid for basic cards. The holographic cards will be a little bit more and then some like Charizard will be more sought after if it's in perfect condition. People want sealed unopened products. That's where you can get mucho dinero.

But even saying that, the more basic ones like Ninetales, Gyarados etc only go for a quid or two. If you’ve got the 3 starters (Blastoise/Venusaur/Charizard) then they go for a bit more. If the Charizard is in good condition then that’s the money card.

Had £3.49 on my Chaos Cards account so I bought the 2 1-pack Blisters from Sword and Shield base & Rebel Clash, plus used a 5% off code so shipped for all 4 was £12.41 which was fantastic. My sealed collection is growing!

My Amazon order of a Sword and Shield base booster box came in today, and I went over to Asda last night and bought the 2 3 pack blisters from both Sword and Shield sets. I’m done until Darkness Ablaze comes out in August!

Seen the Polteagiest V box in B&M today, was tempted at £20 but then remembered about a listing on eBay for a brand new one at £14.95 posted. Decided to wait until I came home and contemplated it. Just pulled the trigger and bought it. Probably gonna pick up the V boxes when they’re cheap(ish). Can’t pass it at £15 posted.
Because I’ve got a discount card for A1 I’ll probably buy the tins and V boxes in there. 10% off is enough to wait until they get them, plus building up store credit helps later on.
I got my Chaos Cards July discount codes via email today and one is £5 off over £50 so I’m gonna wait till payday next Friday and put in my order for Darkness Ablaze. Put everything into my basket tonight to see the full price. For a Booster Box, all 4 blisters (1 & 3 Packs), the two theme decks & Binder/1 pack blister and the new two pack blister (did I say blister enough?) it came to £141 which isn’t bad at all.

Put in my pre-order for the next set Pokemon TCG set, Darkness Ablaze. I got everything bar the Elite Trainer box as I don't see them as being worth it at nearly £40. As long as I got my booster box I'm quite happy.
I had the Copperajah V, Toxtricity V & Figure collection boxes in my basket too but since it was with a pre-order I couldn't use my membership discount codes, so I ended up ordering them on their own and getting £5 off and free shipping since it was over £50 (85p over, but it all counts). I'm debating on getting the pin sets at the end of the month, but once A1 opens next week I might go in and see what they've got in store.
