ok, as promised I put out my collection all together and took some pics.

I think this includes everything except for the a-wing I have disasembled for paint, the virago I'm customizing, the x-wing/z-95, and the buttless rancor.... lol

here we go:






my three favorite ties there in the background of that shot :)
the red one is of course a custom


in the back of this shot you can see my customized "animated debut" slave 1... although you never see it in the animated holiday special or in the droids series this is what I conceptualized that the slave 1 would have looked like had they kept boba's pastel colors instead of redesigning him for ESB....


another shot of my baby.  That tie defender cost me around 80.00.  Dawn bought me it as an eirly christmas gift one year.  gotta love a woman who will feed your obsession... I'd been wanting that thing since I was a child... oh... wait... I still am one of those arn't I?!  


a final parting shot....


well.... what do you guys think?

the imp. dropship is nesstled in behind the reg. tie and in front of the tyderium shuttle.

don't make fun of my sherman tank...  that action fleet scale galoob tank was a purchase I made back in my childhood.  I recently saw the exact same tank go for 150.00 on e-bay.  apparently the military line of toys to this scale by galoob didn't run very long.  The same thing happened to the Starship-troopers line and the Aliens line of ships and figures.  All of which can go upwards of 100-300 dollars on e-bay now, esp. if they are mint in the box.


I just ordered a darth Maul's sith infiltrator though on e-bay the other day... I can't wait untill it comes in!

Congrats! You have a great a great Action Fleet collection. I like that Sherman, it is one of the non-SW items I'm still missing. Which are your favorite ships/vehicles?

That is a great collection. Man, I didn't even know that some of those pieces were available.
I am going to have to break out my collection now.

my favorite A/F models have to be (that I have) the tie defender, tie interceptor, and the AT-TE (even though the AT-TE can't fit figures... it still rocks).

close behind that comes.... well.... everything else! lol

I think the one ship that I am dying to get still that I havn't yet is the e-wing.  Once I get the e-wing I think the majority of the dificult to find OTC ship collection will be complete.

I still have a long way to go to find all the ep-1 collection and I only have the slave-1 from the "saga" era of the line...

I also want to collect all the titanium ultra ships since they are basically the same exact molds that they used for action fleet, only done up in die cast!

I was wondering about those ultras as my ultra gunship looks almost identical to yours. I have one of those in the sharkmouth deco, also.

Action Fleet and Titanium Ultra Gunships are made from the same mold with minor differences - lateral doors open on Action Fleet version, the ball turrets are painted on the ultra etc.

Awesome collection Spud! I see someone else has also made a Royal Guard Interceptor. Great minds think alike!  :)

I could never take out the figures from my ships. If I even lose one I would go nuts lol.

I lost several as a kid when I actually played with toys... and through the years micro figs have been lost from shelf dives into oblivion and just misplacing them...

now I just keep them all together in a zip-lock bag.  I'm sure if I went through them I could remember which goes where but I don't realy wory too much with it...

I forgot that I also had the jabba's palace battle pack MIB somewhere, It was the package that had the extra figure, from the very first battle packs that were packed with an extra figure that was taken out in later versions of the pack.
