Fine Whill. You win.

Some scale shots for other Micro collectors who don't have a Falcon. Usually, the size of the playset correlates to the number of figures. The Falcon blew that away. As you can see, it's huge, yet came with only 6 guys.

When I was a kid I was convinced this Luke pose would work in vehicles. I am vindicated.

Hey, I was just trying to throw your own words back in your face. Don't blame me for you being such a good dad. Cool

When my son was in his big action figure phase, I didn't have any collection-only figures that he coveted because Santa showered him with action figures, including old figures from before he was born. He has such a massive collection of figures that he never wanted any that he didn't have, until he saw a six inch Commander Fox in Barnes & Nobels this past December. I didn't have too many vehicles in my collection but I did end up giving them all to him. He probably has more loose figures than I have carded figures in my collection.

Yeah. My kids also have so much stuff that they rarely ask for anything new. The only time they make a big deal is if it's used (yard sale, second hand store, etc) cause they know they might not get another chance at it!

Great pics, TS. Thank you for sharing! I especially loved the master sculpts of the mammoth and sabretooth tiger. Those dinosaur sets were awesome.

I missed them the first time around, I was too young. But I got a few of the re-issue in the 80's and the mystique surrounding them always gnawed at me. Once I discovered they were Marx, it opened a whole can of worms. I have been collecting (some would say hoarding) Marx variants for almost ten years now. I am trying to cut back my collection's physical size and replace it with things like the clay masters.

Got some fun new stuff from Toy & Comic Heaven in Willow Grove PA. They were really nice and the store is like a museum to Kenner's Star Wars stuff!

My collection of unreleased Micro Collection figures is coming along. I now have 5 of the 10. T&CH provided me with the Bespin Guard on the left. Chewie & the 3PO on his back are, actually two different figs, with a 3D printed plastic backpack. Had these gone into production a very different looking backpack would have been packaged with them so no claims of forgery can be made. I also have a spare unreleased Chewie for trading someday, hopefully, for a 6th unreleased figure. He's roughly equal in value to the ugnaught or an FX-7 (without plastic arms). The other Bespin Guard, Luke in Bacta, and Han being tortured, are pretty hard to track down these days.

I also picked up this guy purely as future trading bait.
