    I don't know if this has been discussed here (it probably has but I'll ask anyhow...) but what do ya'll collect? are ya Heardcore everything with a star wars logo one it or just certain lines or character?

    I used to be pretty hardcore, trying to collect like a super collector on an average salary didn't work [face_plain]. Nowadays I collect the gentle giant mini bust (got em all), pretty much anything I can get my hands on with Jango/Boba/Mandalorian images on em, and I also like to collect autographed action figures. I have 10 singed figs so far.
    So how bout you guys?

    I collect just about anything that has the name Star Wars on it. Here is a link to pictures of my Star Wars room:

    MJF's Collection Pictures

    I have 8 lightsabers and a few other props, some costumes, just about every vintage figure complete with accessories and weapons, I have some 12-back carded figures, many 12" figures. Some of the more rare items include a piece of carpet from Senator Palpatine's office in TPM, a Takara metal R2-D2, and a Qui-Gon Jinn toy lightsaber autographed by George Lucas. The walls of my Star Wars room are covered by autographed pictures of the Star Wars actors. My newest acquisitions are an Anakin F/X lightsaber by Master Replicas, an Ephant Mon Saga figure, and today I recieved a 12" Zam Wessel and a Clone Trooper with speeder bike.

    MJF, I've always found your collection quite inspiring! :D
    But when are you going to let us see the REST of your lightsaber collection?
    I'm particularly interested in the older Parks Sabers you say you have. :)

    Well, MJF, I looked at all 41 pics...
    and if it's in there, it's either VERY well hidden, or it's so blurry that all I could see was a lightsaber shaped blur, one or the other.

    :eek: WOW! that's quite a collection! I am so jealous of your autograph collection MJF! you have some "rare" sigs in there. When I see you again you GOTTA tell me the stories of how you aquired them.

    Haven't seen an Acklay in a long time. :( But I did get a JC Yoda and Destroyer Droid today @ the Santee Wal*Mart. If anyone wants one, I'll pick it up for them. :)

    I didnt know you bought the R2D2/C3PO Christmas figure set. First time i seen it in person.I picked up an Ephant Mon. I need to start my collecting up again. I would like to start with the 12 inchers. I'd like to get a mint Bossk and the new 3 mentioned above . I am also looking forward to the new Han, Lando(skiff disquise)and the ATST officer which i think is coming out in March.

    Mara_Jade_Fan, how are you? I went to my folks' house in Riverside and went through my stuff and i found that SOTE figure 2 pack with comic. The Boba vs IG88 one. Not only i found one but i had 2 of them [face_blush]

    If anyone can spot a 12 inch Dooku for a good deal like at Wal-mart , and if it's in pretty good mint condition, let me know please. I was able to score in Riverside Zuckuss and Dengar for $15 each.
