And the plastic ones I own actual have value and collectibility. These ones are just worthless trash. I can’t see them retaining value in 25/30 years although I could be wrong. I have seen the older players, they have a unique value like the original Star Wars figure vouchers they released as they couldn’t actually make the physical figure in time for Christmas.

doubleg213 746 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I ended up just throwing all of my 80s ones out, tried them on ebay a few times and only sold the odd set for next to nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, all handmade... I don't think the new ones are a homage to that though. Just cheaper and more inline with the FIFA generation where players have to look like the players. Thought I would throw some Lego in to, this is an old set I have, box and all... Taken with some help from my bargain £15 lightbox! 1 Quote Can you smell what the Stone is cooking?

CatManDoza 3,473 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 where did you get the lightbox from @JuniorChubb?? I could do with one of those Quote 50% Cat 50% Man 110% Bellend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleg213 746 Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I'd be interested in that as well. I intend to build one at the farm for doing pictures of bit parts, but an off the shelf cheapy for smaller stuff and for my ongoing loft clearout of toys etc. would be pretty useful.

JuniorChubb 3,359 Posted September 5, 2019 Author Share Posted September 5, 2019 A few years ago on the Bay or Amazon @CatManDoza... It was smaller than expected but done the job, especially with a bit of Photoshop afterwards. Something like this, but you can spend a lot more for a better quality one.. mine was budget. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Photography-Studio-Kit-Portable-Backdrops/dp/B07DXW1R2L/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=lightbox+photography&qid=1567710169&s=gateway&sr=8-3 Here is the same pic with a bit more of the box..

CatManDoza 3,473 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 (edited) Ok, so, hobbies, toys & collections one of my biggest collections is probably my model railway collection. All the popular OO gauge, will put all the images in a spoiler for you to peruse at your leisure. Spoiler I have a few lego sets, nothing major, but had this one for my 30th birthday off the wife (I took her to New York, but I'm not bitter) Spoiler I have few model cars on display, and of course I love to take old knackered Matchbox cars and restore then to their former glory Spoiler Edited September 7, 2019 by CatManDoza 1 Quote 50% Cat 50% Man 110% Bellend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatManDoza 3,473 Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Need your expertise this morning at the car boot @JuniorChubb box full of star wars crap going cheap. But I have no idea if it's worth anything Quote 50% Cat 50% Man 110% Bellend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuniorChubb 3,359 Posted September 8, 2019 Author Share Posted September 8, 2019 @CatManDoza Post a picture and I’ll tell you what you missed... As a general rule of thumb though, with Star Wars stuff if it’s still there an hour after the start of the boot sale then it’s not worth much. Quote Can you smell what the Stone is cooking?

Squirrel 5,180 Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Going to add some photo spam after my epic shelf rearrangment mission. This post is going to be picture heavy! First up, all my star wars sets in one place. I am going to design a new shelving unit eventually but I can't do anything till I'm back at work. sl*ve 1 and Tantive IV Corridor The next few pics show how big things are in the Star Wars universe, you don't appreciate how colossal the capital ships are until you see the scaled versions of other ships next to them.
