Iron Maiden, now thats somthing I haven't thought about in a while, The Walkin Eddie was too cool back in the day.  I still think I have an old Live after Death concert VHS someplace around here.
I went to see em on that tour, Wayne. I never have been able to find that on DVD.

Complete Cantina Band
- ok, they went for $3.25, not 99 cents
Zett Jukasa
- another non-adult fig, good for background chars
Admiral Motti
- nice Imperial uniform

Lost the rest of the DS Briefing set because I wouldn't up my bid when someone nudged them to $1.25.  So somebody got a good deal on several DS-era Imperials.  ;D  Got a ton more auctions at 99 cents that end in the next 3 hrs.  If someone bumps them, I'm not chasing them because I have a metric crappetonne of bids out there.  Lotta fodder about to be flowing in to the Outlands...

yeah, I've stopped doing the "watch the kettle boil" ebaying and now I just put a bid and wait for the email saying I won, if it doesn't come, no big deal.

So, I guess I've picked that up here, :)

is it all in one place or, several places? How high would the stack be? Would it require a shovel or a bobcat to move it?

eh-heh...  *Most* of it is in one place...I think the mini-rigs are still up at the trailer-house.  However...the amount of floorspace/wallspace necessary would be...staggering.  It would give me a chance to reorganize my little greeblies, tho...

Oh, wait...you specified fodder, not the collectibles!




Wait.....there's a difference??

That's alot like asking me what's the difference in between my star wars collection and my ebay star wars inventory. There is no difference, if something is worth enough money, i'll sell it or, if I bought something to sell and it grows on me or if I need it for a project, it's mine. Works pretty well that way.

I started buying and selling on ebay because I thought it would help me collect. Buy a lot auction of figures and sell off the ones that I don't want while keeping the ones that I couldn't find individually. The making and selling customs came later and the whole resin thing came after that.

sounds like Doc is making a killing today! I haven't looked on the bay in a couple weeks.  I had a few feelers out for a few items.  I need to go see if anything turned up.

That shuttle looks like it would make a great custom ship for a Bounty Hunter or Smuggler!

Yeah, that's what I'd hoped the first time I saw one, so I grabbed it up.  And YEAH!  ;D  I think it'll end up being the photo-set for a Ghtroc 720-series freighter.

I finally, finally, finally picked up the Walmart Exclusive Republic Gunship last night for waaaaaay too much money.  The bidding on those things is ridiculous. Except for the Costco AT-TE exclusive, which I am still on the fence about because it is a straight repack, this was the last thing I needed to complete my CW collection.

I'm sure I could have waited it out and found one a little cheaper, but I have a rare open window next week where my wife will be out of town and I can have stuff shipped to the house without the usual freak-out and arguing.  >:D
