There’s an unspoken rule around these here parts — you don’t shop for yourself right before your birthday. Actually it’s not an unspoken rule, it’s a spoken one. The only exceptions I make is when I’m buying things that nobody else in the world would ever buy me, and I’m guessing vintage Star Wars figures apply. When I got home from work today I found THESE in the mailbox!
I would like to note that for some of these I got free shipping and on some of them I paid $6 shipping. They all arrived at the same time. Anyway. Gimmie gimmie gimmie! In the first package I found … a JAWA!
I actually need two or three Jawas for a little display I have planned, but for right now, one Jawa is better than none. Up next was… Removable Limbs C-3P0!
Complete with the little plastic harness that Chewie carried him around in after he was blown to bits inside Bespin. In package number three I found… the Black Bespin Security Guard!
There you have it, three figures in a single day. I might as well throw this picture in for good measure:
(The fourth package contained a non-Star Wars figure that I’ll be showing off later this week.)
Well, there goes my idea. Seriously. :-)
Awesome! Your collection is coming together nicely. I recently found out there is a Uncle Owen action figure. It’s sort of morbid but cool at the same time. I can send you a picture of it if you don’t already have it in your collection. Anyway, looks like the Force is with you… always :)
