The old figures are fascinating Firehorse, I'm sure I've seen some of these at older friends houses in the early '90s. Back then they were already old..! I've heard a lot about the Morrow Project and Traveller and always regretted that my RPG group played almost exclusively Palladium : ( Hey don't get me wrong TMNT was a good game but my favorite setting Recon was probably the worst written set of rules ever in history...We didn't really know any better though..

That's very cool Tasuke, did you ever play Cybernator on SNES? That was one of my favourite games and I thought the mecha were cool. I should bust it out again one day. I think you might need an action plan for dust management though..

that there is another of my all-time favorites.

i've a bare CYBERNATOR cart for the odd occasion when i feel like being able to read the storyline.

however, on the whole, i generally prefer to play it in it's straight-up, unmolested ASSAULT SUITS VALKEN format.
i long ago modded the inner cart slot of my U.S. SNES to accept Japanese SFC carts, so i've no probs there;

I still occasionally see new garage kits of stuff in that series. The hardcore never forget.

This came in today Image

Not the best figure but more or less appropriately valued these days.

Holo came a little bit ago but I don't think I shared pics here

Is that the same character in your avatar? Cute outfit.

I'm really liking Holo, one of my new favorite figures. It captures her spirit well and the figure itself just looks great and is high quality.

Spent over a week at my folks for the holidays, took some figures with me to take some pictures in my old neck of the woods.

Epic photos of star wars characters in action !

Brought back memories from my ancient childhood years.

Cheers

Wish my dumb a** hadn't decided to not bring any imperials along. There would've certainly been enough room in the box for an AT-ST, let alone some Scout Troopers.

Those moulded cloaks don't look as good as the old cloth ones though

Are those PotF2 figures? They look buff.
I do have a few modern figures like that (and a couple of Clone Wars figures) but most of mine are original Empire or RotJ releases.
I have a RotJ AT-ST, first issue Luke's Landspeeder, Empire Snowspeeder and also have a fairly modern TIE which has 15" wings.

They could probably make cloth cloaks look better these days. My only problem with molded cloaks is how they limit posability. Han can't even sit down with it, but at least Luke's and Leia's are removable, but Luke especially sits a bit awkwadly on the bike with it on. I got the '99 release Vader with the interrogation droid and he has a really nice cloth cape. I even bought a couple of those Episode I accessory sets just for the jedi cloaks so I could give one to Obi-Wan.

Yeah, POTF2 is pretty much my childhood. Ironically I never owned any - except for Luke's Landspeeder which I think my mom picked up at a flea market or something. The only toy from the line I remember actually bugging my parents to buy was the Scout Trooper with Speeder Bike and they wouldn't even buy me that.

Now I've got loads of vehicles and I'm still trying to get more, especially the Y-Wing.

Pretty sure I still have two original (RotJ) speeder bikes but only one is boxed (my one from when I was younger). The loose one belonged to my cousin, who passed away years back.
