Lets be honest, this thread is going to be empty besides the One Modern SW toy that I did get. I really don’t know of anyone who bought any nor do I know why anyone would want an admiral Genders study figure staring at them on their desk.
Or maybe I am wrong and lots of you have some to share.
I have a very unique Rose Tico Figure from The Last Jedi. There are only 5 in the whole world right now that I know about. The others are within the fire pit of EVS. lol
Remember when Ethan Van Sciver went on his Rose Tico figure kick? Well he gave away 5 of the ones he did not make huff duster or blow up, drive over and or burn!
I was sitting on his stream that night, he was streaming OT A New hope off screen that night. I was lucky enough to have been 1 of the 5 people who got that Rose Tico. The following stream was a John Talks stream. He gave away a copy of Empire to one winner. I guess the FORCE really was with me. AS I wont that too.
How do you take a worthless action figure and turn it into gold? You have EVS sign it and do a give away.
So now I have a Rose Tico Action figure that I absolutely treasure.
And I wanted to share it with you folks here.
Also didn’t see a modern Star Wars figure folder, which I don’t doubt will collect dust just like my Rose Tico!
What a horrible character! LOL But we loved her long time!
I am actually disappointed there was no Palpatine figure from Rise of Skwalker.
I can’t say I collect “Star Wars Toys” but I do collect Palpatine Toys.
Yeah, I have Admiral Ackbar, some Lukes (Including Jake Skywalker), and I do have a Holdo figure… even a Jyn Erso… but they’re going to be
props for some epic photography project that hopefully everyone will enjoy soon. (They better, I’ve spent probably 3 Thousand dollars in
pre-production for it). I knew all this was going down. I knew it when I saw the Robocop Remake. I knew it when I saw the J.J. Star Trek. I knew they
were going to go after every hero, every franchise, and it was all going to be the same shit….
So I grabbed as much as I could as cheaply as I could, and prepared.
Holdo will serve a purpose, as will Jyn Erso, as will Tauriel from The Hobbit Films, and many other action figures… There will be a pendulum swing back
from all this, and there, Ackbar and Palpatine will be at the center of it all. Quigon cost me a fortune, but we need that drunk Jedi back for a bit to remind
us of the past, and yes I managed to acquire a Donnie Yen figure, but Darth Maul was far too expensive. (I speak of 6″ —all).
I am really disappointed that there was no official Palpaclone figure, because now I have to make a custom.
But, I refuse to buy a Mandalorian or a Baby Yoda. In my presentation, Baby Palpatine will come, and it shall be Baby Sheevie who wins our hearts, and
changes the world…
The only modern Star Wars toys that I have bought were two lightsabers, one Luke and one Vader for my 6 year old son (not the build a saber versions, but the ones that play dialogue from the movies) and some of the Star Wars NERF guns (First Order trooper and Poe Dameron’s blaster).
Here is a fraction of my collection. I also enjoy customizing, making my own or preexisting characters.
Imperial Inspection
Since there is no “Like” button at the moment, I’m going to give it a 👍
Damn Joseph.Fara! That is impressive. Please start your own Thread on this amazing collection!
This thread is not worthy of such an epic collection!
I give you two big thumbs up and a couple toes!
Good stuff man! Thanks for sharing that scene with us here. Did you paint those too?
I like when people set up scenes and stuff with their collections.
Appreciated friends.
You’re welcome Joseph! I am serious about starting your own thread on this.
Looking at the ranks and all those figures makes me feel like a kid all over again! Thinking in my head all the cool battles I could have while setting up backgrounds and all sorts of cool stuff!
I have a little secret here about all the cool toys I buy for my son. I just pretend they are for him so I as a grown man can have an excuse to play with toys again! lol
And here my wife just thinks I am a “good dad”. Muwahahahaha, if she only knew the truth!
Thanks bud! These come from the hasbro toy line around 2008 I think. They had better quality back than.
Noice collection!
Pretty much OT stuff for me, some characters from Force Awakens and Rogue One. Death Troopers are awesome.
I build the 6 inch Bandai model kits, very nicely detailed and articulated models.
There’s really nothing I find appealing or interesting to collect in the last two SW movies. Maybe that chick with the helmet that looks like a Mass Effect character but that’s about it, the red flying troopers are kind of ok I guess.
Will definitely get myself a Mando in kit form if it ever materializes.
Holy Cow!!
I found my old JCPenny’s toy catalog from when The Phantom Menace came out.
Havent seen that in ages. Any good images inside?
