that is expensive He-Man stuff !
the SW vintage ones are also at least 30-40 bucks.

I buy them by the case of 12 at EntertainmentEarth.com, have them shipped to the US then here, sometimes I don't keep all, specially this year that there are gonna be a lot of repacks (Hasbros way of makin money), so I sell them or trade them with other collectors, for example for these new ones, I purchased 36 figs in total and kept just 15. I also buy at amazon.com to get the Toys R Us exclusives and use ebay just to get figures from past collections as the current ones are more expensive there, at EE are about regular retail.

Nice collection. It's so bad I can't find thid figures in Turkey. I had Luke Skywalkers figure about 9-10 years ago but my mom give it to my cousine because I am too big to "play" with figures. I am still angry with her because of that.

Thnx.
I open them, theyre closed just for the pictures. Though from the last 2 collections (ROTS and this one) you can keep the boxes with the blisters almost intact and take out the figures, so because now I don't have a display I am keeping the figures in the case so i don't use more space.

First of all, the numbers, I just made a count of how many figs I have and it comes down to the number of 520 !!! between which there are:

25 Lukes, 17 Anakins, 16 Vaders, 21 Obis, 12 Yodas, 11 Palpatines, 10 R2s, 5 C-3POs, 14 Hans, 10 Chewies, 7 Padmes, 12 Leias, 44 Jedis, 15 Cantina Aliens, 18 Jabbas Aliens, 77 Clone Troopers, 11 Stormtroopers, etc.

The Army


George Lucas in Stormtrooper Disguise, to get the figure you must buy 5 other figs, mail the proof of purchase of each (they're different so you must buy the 5 different figs) and mail it with 5 bucks... i got it on ebay


Lucas Family Set. Starwarsshop.com exclusive, features Lucas and his sons in the characters of the cameos they made on EP III


POTJ Sandtrooper


Saga Rappertunie and J'Quille, the first one is from Jabba's Palace and the second from Jabba's Sail Barge


Stormtrooper Army Builder 10x


Utapau Clone Troopers, I already had 2 and bought this extra 3 here in Mexico, notice the difference in the box, this ones don't contain the backdrop and come in 3 languages


Bespin Vader and Tatooine Luke, from now on figures will come with red "holograms" instead of blue


Hem Dazon and Momaw Nandon who was already released but this is a new sculpt


Garindan (also re-released with a new sculpt) and Sandtrooper


R5-D4, new sculpt, if you twist its head an antenna pops out


X-Wing Power F/X, its an old ship, I've been wanting this for some years now as it comes better scaled and the sounds are pretty cool


Clone Wars Gunship, featured in the Cartoon Network series, its a Toys R Us exclusive.

Hoth AT-AT. Its already opened but re sealed it and was too lazy to take it out for the pics


Darth Sidious Holograph from Episode I. I had this figure in my hands long time ago along with 3 or 4 more figs from the same collection, they were priced at 7 dlls each + tax and I decided to leave them and buy them other time... now each of them are worth around 25 dlls and up.


Darth Vaders Advanced TIE X1. Its a repaint of an old vehicle but I didn't have it.


Demise of Grievous. Target Exclusive.


Hunt for Grievous. Toys R Us exclusive. This set goes with the Gunship in my post above, the set is cool but the blue ARC Troopers articulation sucks.


Mace Windus Jedi Starfighter. Purple ships are cool


Obi Wans Jedi Starfighter from Attack of the Clones.


Obi Wans Jedi Starfighter from Revenge of the Sith. Toys R Us Exclusive. This is the ship he uses to go to Utapau, where he fights Grievous


Shadow Stormtrooper. StarWarsShop.com exclusive and belongs to a comic called Crimson Empire, where two characters (Kir Kanos and Carnor Jax) fight for the control of the Empire post Emperor. Their figures will be released next month.


Shock Trooper and 501st Legion Trooper. Repacks from last year but I like troops


Skirmish in the Senate. Target Exclusive. Yoda and Palpatine are repacks and the Shock Troopers are repaints of the "Super Articulated" mold as oposed to the previous one thats "Quick Draw" mold

Clone Wars Gunship


Kit Fisto's Jedi Starfighter, repaint of Obi's Starfighter from AOTC


X-Wing from Dagobah, Toys "R" Us Exclusive, I love it, looks so great packed.


Zev Senesca's Snowspeeder, my first Snowspeeder, the packing is pretty cool, and the exclusive figure also.


501st Stormtrooper, San Diego Comic Con Exclusive. This was made specially for the 501st Legion, a SW fan-made club of Troopers. Vader's Legion was named after them. If you're a member of it you can change the back pic with your own without opening it.


Kir Kanos & Carnor Jax internet exclusive. This guys are from a comic clled Crimson Empire which occurs after Episode VI. They're royal guards and they fight for the being the succesor of the Emperor.


Mace Windu's Attack Battallion. Just released, the clone with the different helmet is the first time it comes out in retail.
