Is that the one shown back at Armageddon, in about 2003? I remember it well.

Hello,I'm Chris from Wellington and a female.Fell in love with the movie in 1977 and only regret I never started collecting then.
My one dream is to someday own a stormtrooper outfit.
I collect the odd figures but have fallen in love with the Gentle Giant Busts,Statues etc and Hugh's Reel Collectibles site.
I try to get stuff that we never seem to get her in New Zealand as I travel to Vancouver on a yearly basis for a sci fi convention over there.Would love to get to Disney's Star Wars Month they have and to any official Star Wars Convention. :victory: :victory: :victory: :lol:

Hi Chris, great to meet a fellow female SW collector! Welcome to the forums :)

The Gentle Giant range is fantastic, I only wish I had more in my collection! I'd love to make it to the Disney SW weekends one day - my husband and I attended SW Celebration 3 and 4, but sadly can't make it to CV this year though :(

Yeah, I've heard of that happening.

What convention do you get to in Vancouver?

Hi there
Been reading the forums for a while. Not an huge Star Wars collector - mainly Clones and Troopers but decided to ditch the majority of the collection when the price on the figures rose.

Know Keith (acerimmerrocks) from Invercargill well

Joined the forum with a bit of a warning, which I will post in what I hope is the correct forum.

Cheers
