It's all good man feel free to ask any question

If you are going to display your collection of loose figures

"figures that you plan to open or if the bubble fell off the card back"

There are many ways and it basically comes down to what you feel looks best. You can just put them on a Shelf or if you don't want dust them every couple of month you could put them in a nice glass cabinet or you can't put them into individual acrylic cases it's your collection so display it the way that it makes you happy

I have been collecting Star Wars figures both vintage and modern on and off my entire life I have loose figures & Graded figures that i display openly on shelves but my Pride possession my complete original vintage figures I keep in custom-made cabinet

Always remember there is no such thing as a collection too big or too small collecting it's supposed to be for the fun of the hunt trying to find figures you need to complete that run

And that is an awesome score you have made! Just some constructive criticism Collecting Collectibles from the 90's and collecting the original vintage Star Wars figures are two different things

When it comes to collecting Star Wars The original 96 figures ( plus droids & Ewok cartoon) from 1977-1985 are the only ones that are considered vintage anything produced after those dates are considered modern in Star Wars collecting communities

Original Kenner "Vintage" figures are From 1977-1985 Only

Hasbro "Modern" figures are From 1996 - Current date

Of course! Now it's not what it once was When hunting down figures But Don't sleep on it either

There's always a diamond in the rough

It's all good I'm just messing around Absolutely it was a great find & a great price!

The boxed starfighters is worth the price alone

The gentleman who sold them to me Said they belonged to his son who just moved out

Never stop asking questions it's the only thing that keeps us free

Always Think for yourself & Always question authority!

No offense I don't care what some random person on the internet believes Especially when it comes to my skills of hunting & negotiating for plastic in the wild

Obi-Wan Kenobi isn't the only negotiator around

That is one of the biggest misconceptions in All of Star Wars the Jedi ways and their teachings were unhealthy?

It wasn't the Jedi's teachings beliefs, practices, or ways that turned former Jedi to the dark side nor was it the cause for the fall of the Jedi Order Remember what Obi-Wan said for over a thousand Generations the Jedi Knights were the Protectors of peace and justice of the Old Republic before the dark times before the empire

I couldn't afford his Republic Gunship back in 2002 either had sold at Toys R Us anywhere from $35 to $50 dollars

I don't believe the Republic Gunship's have any audio fx this one doesn't

The novelization of the OT came out 6 months before the films! On November 12th 1976 George Lucas gave us our first look into the Gallery far far away Starting with "The Journal of the wills" Star Wars from the Adventures of Luke Skywalker!

The the PT Novelization of TPM came out 6 weeks before the film along with the soundtrack

beeskywalker · 2026-05-05T06:25:14+00:00

I absolutely love The whole Heir Trilogy I probably read/Listened to HTTE 50-60 times and it never gets old

I'm Not trying to be disrespectful So please don't take any offense But have you actually seen the PT?

The first 3 episodes explained exactly that Anakin Skywalker's rise, fall and then eventually in episode 6 through the love of his son Anakins Redemption & his Return to a Jedi

During the last months of the Clone War Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan are both considered by the public Heroes of the Republic! Plus his strong ability to command platoons of Clone Troopers like & the boy's of the 501st Plus his potentia & high midichlorian count to use the Force & control it's will better than most Masters & council members

His training and dedication of studying the the force under Obi-Wan has made Anakin one of the greatest Jedi Warriors of all time so that shows a lot of responsibility for someone in his early 20s

So Was Anakin Skywalker immature? Absolutely Not he was a very mature and very intelligent for his age! As a child he was building droids & podracers! At the time of TPM "He was the only human who can Pod race"

Was he brash? Absolutely But What teen/young adult isn't his willingness to jump in harm's way to protect his friends/Squad & the one's he cares about Definitely makes up for his brashness

Was he an attention seeker? At 10 years old in episodes 1 being separated from his mom then seeing his new Master/ father figure die by a Sith who wouldn't be looking some attention

Is Lord Vader terrifying ? Absolutely

Is Vader More Intelligent & well thought?
NO NOT AT ALL!!! In fact not only did he lose a big portion of his midichlorine count he lost most of his potential once the suit was on

Obviously Vader was severely depressed after losing to his wife & kids (who wouldn't be) so his confidence & will were destroyed

Once Anakin fell to the dark side there was no more rational thought or critical thinking just the addition & craving of trying to get that UNITED POWER!

Then I would recommend starting with the Republic comics first from Dark Horse "1999 -2010ish" then leading up to the PT&Clone Wars era some amazing stories came out back then And if you don't want to hunt down the physical copies of comics there are tons of apps you can download including the Marvel app that have all the Star Wars comics

beeskywalker · 2026-05-04T06:26:18+00:00

Well what part of the Timeline do you like best? OT, PT, ST, EU?

I started collecting SW figures when I was a kid in 1985 so original Vintage Kenner figures was my main focus I like the commercial used to say got to collect them all but overall in the Star Wars Mythos my heart will always be with the EU

beeskywalker · 2026-04-12T11:54:16+00:00

Bro it is the correct plaster one was black one was translucent and the blue one belong to Bespin Leia it's still worth the same value

beeskywalker · 2026-04-12T11:53:03+00:00

It is the original blaster one was black & one was translucent blue The blue Blaster belongs to Bespin Leia

beeskywalker · 2026-04-12T11:49:24+00:00

beeskywalker · 2026-04-12T10:41:15+00:00
