Some other toys (and not a pornographic spam thread!)

Here's some of my other toys just as a distraction from the hardcore porn spam that I happened to look at at work....
My only 25th GIJOE the Para Viper. I was going to use the FG42 gun for my wave1 German Para, but Hasbro have seriously upscaled the rifle,and the whole figure was too cool to mess about with!
A Sectaur called Skulk who was one of my favourite toys when I was young, although only one other friend had a sectaur to play with it. The Spider is a glove puppet which comes in handy for scaring the poop out of my children.
Some of my Divers, and my Zuckuss collection, that I had to rein in when I stumbled accross some busts and figures for over £100.

that's 4-LOM and always will be!!!!
Are you going for the Kotobukiya one too?
Love the Sectars dude though, I remember wanting that one.

The Kotubukiya one is amazing and I keep an eye on Ebay, but he's not cheap..
As for Sectaurs this was the only one worth having the rest were like bad he-man characters!

I would have gone for the full set of Koto's, but since most wholesalers have given up importing them into the UK or have gone out of business, it costs a fortune to get them in and that set would be around £350+
I have a few, but now no room to display them;
EPII clone, Commander Bly, Senate Security Clone, Sandtrooper, Snowtrooper, Biker Scout, Boba Fett, Jango Fett, Luke Bespin, Han Solo, Leia Slave - maybe a few others, not seen them in a long while to remember?
The Kubrick is cool, you can get a carded one now too.

Yep, I've got a Kubrick one on the way at the momen, and also have the mini one that came with IG88 somewhere. I'm not sure why I liked 4LOM so much as a kid, but then I like Muton too!
There are some truly superb Star Wars figures and busts/statues available now. I could seriously spend some money (if someone would lend it to me to do so...)
I recently bought a POTF2 Death Star Gunner, and it is very cool, and sits atop a rather slippery slope!

Is the carded vintage a custom?
If that's a offerless 4LOM original, you've got an extremely rare one there.

Unfortunately he's as fake as the day is long...
I got him off ebay a couple of years ago, for £10, now they're banned!

I stand corrected, but weren't they banned at some point?

They may well have been but I don't remember seeing that, Then again I only discovered the internet when I got out of the army in oct 2004.
