Does anyone out there have the full set??

[AaronDB94]

Just wondering how many people out there have the full set (or nearly) of the original action figures...and if so do you have many MOC?


My goal in life at the moment is to track down the complete set haha

I've got all the original vintage figs, including blue snaggletooth and the major sculpt variants; about 2/3rds are the ones I had as a kid. Only have a handful...half-a-dozen or so, carded (in addition to loose versions of the same figure).

Well Matt I would let you know how jealous I am but honestly I wouldn't know where to start haha the Jawa figure in the vinyl robe is fantastic....in fact he would be one of my favourites.

I just got my vintage Luke in his X-Wing jumpsuit (no where near as good as your one though bugger it) in the post and I was so happy and excited to unwrap him....anyone would have thought it was 1983 all over again hahaha??!! He is uncarded so I'll never know if he was a ROTJ or POTF figure.

Did you get the blue Snaggletooth in NZ or from overseas??....There was a carded (Tri-logo) Yak face on trade me a few weeks ago but the seller was asking around $3000 for him, little bit out of my price range unfortunatly.

Where's that picture of all the vintage figures from Aaron?

My Jawa's vinyl cape is a fake/replica. I got the Blue Snaggletooth locally 15+ years ago (pre-TradeMe...got it at one of the old downtown comic stores).

I'd love to progressively get more real vintage carded specimens.

I've tried to get a blue snaggletooth from round here but haven't had a lot of luck (My partner and I made a deal that I can collect the vintage series but only through NZ and not start buying in from overseas, restrictions involved with having a new baby haha)

Is the cape on your Jawa a cut down Ben Kenobi or did you get some matching thin plastic...he looks great!!

I got it through eBay, some time back.

I've got an almost complete set of loose original 3 3/4" figures (barring the rare ones like vinyl Jawa) which I've kept from when I was little. It's missing a few figures like Bossk because back then I didn't want the "monsters".

Unfortunately when we moved house about 20 years ago I took the figures and their accessories off the shelves and packed them into envelopes and didn't get around to looking at them in the new house for many months (if not years) ... when I did I discovered that some of the figures had been damaged by the privacy ink printed on the inside of the envelope leaching into the figures, but strangely only some figures. So a few have slightly blue noses and toes. (A repaint would fix them.)

With the exception of the awful "wrestling" figures and some of the "dark days" of non-existant stock, I've actually got an almost complete set of 3 3/4" figures up to and including Episode I, when I decided to stop buying them because there were far too many and it was getting expensive. Most are loose, but there are a few of the newer ones still on their cards.

I have the full set of Vintage figs in loose, including most of the major variants .... I also have maybe twenty or so still on card in various conditions.....
