My Sons Star Wars collection and the Falcon.

Post by Chopper »

Well, the Falcon, X-wing, Speeder bike and vintage chaps are all mine. ;-) All the modern stuff is little Choppers. These pics don't do this lot justice, especially as you nee to appreciate the Falcon is over a meter long.

I have a couple of other pics I'll post over in Dio's I think. Well, Eddie? Show us yours then ;-)

Very nice, that Falcon is something to behold in the flesh. Though its not the vintage one which is just all kinds of 8-) . Nice to see some clones too.

The new Falcon is plenty 8-) for me ;-) I prefer it over the original. The Gunship as massive too, but the Falcon makes everything look small. My son has expressed a desire to get an Imperial Star Destroyer for his clones. Now THAT would be cool ;-)

The AT-TE is a good buy too, they were £50 over here at one point but I missed out on that bargain. My biggest grip with the new Falcon is its too big for most people to 'fly' round the room which as a kid I did with my vintage Falcon all the time.

Nice collection Chop' 8-)

& the nice thing is it gets played with, not just kept M.I.B. rotting in display cases.
Is that a vintage "micro" Snowspeeder? V 8-) indeed!

When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

I just put the Stormtrooper there by accident like that one day, it was like it was destined to do that :.

I'm more an OT kinda guy while my son is a clone wars fanatic. I'd be more interested in an AT-AT ODB, Young feller is keen on the AT-TE tho. I'm big enough to fly the Falcon around, but it kills my arms after a bit.

I think they may be cheap in toys r us again odb. I think they were about £60 in the meadowhall one when I w as there. I was tempted. I like the huge tank! Would look awesome in red, and would squash the atc!
