SW Collector OC

First-generation Star Wars collector. Started as a kid in 1977, took a break in '85, started again in '95. Running out of room. Have a very supportive wife.

@cdurbs24 @yak_face What kind of a-hole goes to all that trouble just save a few bucks & screw over a fellow collector? The same one who replaced one of the figures in my TVC X-wing Pilots 4-pack with a 5-POA Asty from 2015.

@RanchoObiWan Just an FYI: No self-respecting first-generation collectors ever called them "figurines." Just figures.

@yak_face Luck you. My Amazon order currently says arriving April 1.

[SW Collector OC @SWcollectorOC]

@SwChamp Found all except Jor-El in white.

[SW Collector OC @SWcollectorOC]

@SwChamp Geez, $34? I forgot the deluxe went up another $10. Glad I got the Imperial Commando for $25 on Amazon. I swear when TVC is selling for more than Black Series there's a problem.

@PadawanCollects Dude, once again this figure WAS released in mid-summer 1980 as the lone entry in wave 2. I know because I bought it then. Were you even around in 1980?

[SW Collector OC @SWcollectorOC]

@PadawanCollects Yoda with orange snake on 32A back was actually released in mid-summer of 1980 & was the sole entry of wave 2. Wave 3 wouldn't hit until early '81.

@PadawanCollects Actually made his US debut in the 1978 Sears-exclusive Cantina Adventure Set. Didn't arrive carded until '79.

@SwChamp @JadaClub I see it on Amazon. Thanks.

@SwChamp @JadaClub That's funny as Jada posted on Instagram last month that these were coming to Target in spring 2025.

Happy 46th anniversary to the Star Wars Holiday Special, which received its one & only airing on CBS on this date back in 1978. In addition to introducing Bea Arthur & Art Carney to the SW family, it also gave us our first look at Boba Fett. #StarWars #LifeDay

The wife brought home a Rancor coffee mug from Hallmark this afternoon, complete with mouth-slot to hold your favorite cookie or Gamorrean Guard. #StarWars #ReturnoftheJedi

Had lunch at Downtown Disney Anaheim today for the first time in over a year & a half & stopped by the Star Wars Trading Post. #StarWars

[SW Collector OC @SWcollectorOC]

The wife picked up my 2024 Hallmark mini vintage Darth Vader ornament today. Very sturdy. One of the first two SW figs I ever got back in ‘78 (Luke the other one). Hopefully they’ll produce him & others down the road. #StarWars

Mail call from Walmart. Cobb shipped in a box & the bubble & card were dinged up. Baylan (on sale for $15) shipped in a paper bag & was unscathed. #StarWars #TheVintageCollection #TheBlackSeries #TheMandalorian #Ahsoka
