How annoying is this, i have finally recieved the TFU Shadow Guard i won on Ebay two weeks ago and the reason it took so long was last week i got a royal mail note saying unpaid postage. So i emailed the seller and she oh don't know whats wrong i'll get in touch with them, i said in the meantime i'll pay the fee. During this time she has done nothing, recieved the parcel today which say reused stamps, this means i paid her postage for nothing. So now i don't know whether to get Ebay involved or see what she says about paying me my money back. Can do with out the hassle of this!

I broke down and bought the last Leia/Xixor comic pack for just under $5 from TRU

I had a coupon for $5 and I had to buy something else to qualify, so I got a bottle of root beer
nobody cares about that tho, right?

*******************************************************************************************************************

an update!

I did not win a free trip to Celebration 5 as advertised on the package
darn the luck!

:lol:

I spent some birthday and casino cash and bought the true vintage Y Wing, complete with all parts and decals
I also snagged another radar laser cannon without stickers, and the mini mine rig of the One Man Sail Skiff
that thing is in great condition and has all the stickers unlike the one I already own

the total price was about $85, so I'm stoked

via ebay, I picked up another Land of the Jawas playset, mostly complete including the instructions, just missing 2 footpegs for the inside of the cardboard sandcrawler backdrop

and also got a Droid Factory in the box with the blueprints but is missing many pieces
I have another set that will fill the gaps

and I didn't realize that a vintage R2-D2 was in there also, and the thing is in very nice shape

meesa happy

Just had an interesting day, got a tip off from one of the assistants in one of my local sci fi shops that Home Bargains were selling OTC figures for £3.99, went to all three in the city where strangely each store had different ones and i got Sly Moore and Feltpern Trevagg. Then as i was walking along there was this new shop i'd never heard of Pound Empire, they had some BAD and CW's figures, and luckily for me they had TAC Ayla Secura's Starfighter for £15. So a sudden resurgance of older figures and vehicles from no where!

Well be going into my local town tomorrow gonna checck the Home Bargains there.

Anyone missing OTC figures let me know and i'll tell you if they have it.

Yesterday i had what i feel is a stroke of luck on Ebay, a US seller was selling figures and vehicles really cheap. They had the 2003 Clone Wars Geonosian Starfighter and Anakins Modified Starfighter unopened which i've been wanting for a long time. With postage worked out about £31.01 each, £62.02 in total, which is a good offer as the only other two sellers of the Geo Starfighter are in the UK and would have cost 60 quid just for one of these vehicles; so i feel a decent price, just hope all is ok when they arrive.

Good news for everyone else too as when i buy older SW toys on Ebay they always end up being rereleased or made a new straight afterwards, so expect a these to be shown at the SDCC! :lol:

Happens to me all the time. Usually, a new sculpt comes out soon after I buy an old figure. They did re-release the modified starfighter back in 2008, so I bet it's not coming back. That should be some consolation.

 

[Paulskywalker]

Oh yeah forgot it was rereleased, well lets hope the Geo Fighter does get rereleased i feel it needs to be.
