Any questions, just ask. Here's the link so I don't kill anyone's modem: pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/rmartin999/album?.dir=/6452 |

My vision is a little whacked today, I had an eye exam, and these funky eye drops are blurring my vision, do you have any vintage figures pictured?

There should be a vintage Lando around there somewhere, but other than that, I don't really have many vintage figures. The ones I had as a kid got lost in our many moves, and it's too expensive to buy them again now. |

The ones I had as a kid got lost in our many moves, and it's too expensive to buy them again now. When i was 13-17, I used to go hunting for the lil buggers... I'd get them loose, but in good shape with the accessories for pretty cheap. Not sure if the prices have went up or down between now and then... at the time, it cost me 12$ for a loose Endor Han solo, complete with Coat, and blaster... I think Yoda cost me 15$, Jedi Luke was 20$, Speeder bike luke and Leia were 20 each... I actually used to buy these friggin things loose... |

Well, in the last few years, I have considered starting a vintage collection. However, I have tons of figures loose already, as you can see. So, if I DO start one, I may start a carded collection, because the vintage figures are ugly anyway, and part of their appeal to me is the packaging. So, even though I usually open everything, I may start a carded vintage collection. |

Pretty awesome collection. You have as much as me, maybe more. You got a lot of the exclusives, too bad you don't have a lot of MOC.

Figures are meant to be opened, IMO. The only reason I have the ones MOC that I do, is because I haven't gotten around to opening them. |

Nice stuff sweetness. But I'm tempted to pull my old Marvel figs out of the closest just to dwarf your collection.
And I thought I was the only person over 3 years old to own a Force Battler Vader.

Well, I don't have any older Marvel figs, so you would have me beat for sure. The only ML figs I don't have are Toad and Goliath.
I don't have a Force Battler Vader though. Not sure which fig you are looking at. Perhaps my 12" Electronic Darth Vader? Or the Celebration III Vader.

Toad and Goliath are crap anyway. Yeah, I think it was the celebration Vader I was looking at, so I'm still the oldest person to own one.

Personally, I thought it was kind of gay, so I passed. I already have 300 different Vaders anyway. I kind of want the Goliath figure, but yes, I passed on Toad because he was total poop. |

Vader's not gay.  I remember passing on Toad several times, and not regretting it. You wouldn't happen to have one of those rocket firing Fetts would you? |

If you mean the old prototype rocket firing Boba Fett, then I don't. There are only a few in existance, as they were never officially released, and they are quite expensive.
I think I have one of the new ones that fires his rocket....but honestly, I have so many Boba Fetts, I can't remember.

I've never talked to anyone that's actually owned one. |
