You're Katarn Collector. I am Katarn07, or just Katarn.

I forgot about that Vader. I don't have that and have no desire to own it. I am going to get a Jorg Sacul one of thee days from Brians Toys, just waiting until Easter/ BDay/ X-Mas to get one.
I do have the silver R2 from TRUs, and it is OK. It's free, so what the heck.

Oh wait. I also forgot 2 of my best figures.

PotF2 Luke Jedi- Brown Vest
PotJ Scout Trooper- Clean version

Gottem both in the store when they first came out and realized I had variants that are worth 35-40 bucks each.

:max: I was happy as this hyperkinetic bunny thing that is a sorry excuse for a Freelance policeman!

The game include Luke- Trash Compactor and Vader- Removable Dome. I found the game in Wal-Mart for 5 bucks, took it, took the weapons, and played the game once. I neveer touched that stupid thing again.

I got those first deluxe guys to play with. Luke is the coolest. I put the flashback photo Luke with floppy hat on it, next to the Y-16 which I have "crashed". The his landspeeder (the 95 one, not the Saga remake) is nearby.

I have Han w/ Jetpack, Stormtrooper w/ Jetpack, and Boba Fett w/ giant Jetpack flying via fishing wire.

I got deluxe Yoda from Brians for 12 bucks. It is 20 again. Nevere came to our stores....

Yeah, but it might be sold out by now (pretty sure it is).

Best bet is Cloud City Collectibles, cheaper than Brians. Only 100 there, I think though.

No, it is a Japanese thing. 3 3/4". I believe Brian has Euro boxes for less than that. (edit, he is sold out of those). Here is a link of the actual product. You might check elsewhere...

It's hard to get here in Illinois! Wal-Mart exclusives are very uncommon around here, even cheap GI-Joes! Jeez...

I want those very badly.

And those other to are also 3 3/4". Very rare.

Han is really 135, and Luke is 90. Do you guys get catalouges in the mail from Brians? I have been since issue 15. Now I am on issue 40...

Yeah. Those are helpful price guides for these rare figures. Refer to the newer ones and older ones to see the rare figure's values over the months.

Like Luke w/ Wampa (small) was 30 for the longets time, and then 50, then 60, then 80, and now... It is 90.

Just an example.

For everyone with these catalouges, keep them and refer on them to determine which ones are rare.

yeah i keep those-also i buy toy fair-toy reveiw and tomarts,i found a decent web site recently that carries some "rare" figures www.johns-toys.com) its located 10 min from my house so i dont even order i wal in and go to the stock room.

I got Toy Fair (the goofy one with the comics with action figures???) once.

Tomarts is really good. My comic shop moved though, so I don't have a place to get one. I decide places like this and Brian's site are enough for me to get advance news of upcoming figures.

Back on topic to rare figures now!

I have a Darktrooper in and out. I got it fro mthe Insider, that and some other figure were 20 bucks. Couldn't resist. Glad I didn't...

Cheap. That whole thing was cheap. I was there for a birthday party opening day for ANH, which came out before. You'd think we'd get something!!!!!

Although I was young than, I knew I should not take it out...

They should have propmos for EPIII.

They should have propmos for EPIII. Well it was the ROTJ Luke not the ANH Luke. But your right they should have had a special figure for all the movies.

Believe it or not its the only special figure I have. I must admit Im not much of a collector. I collect the dvds of course and I have a Hasbro Qui-Gon lightsaber (Kinda stupid). I used to collect Action Fleet and I have a few TPM figures. I dont collect anymore though. *ducks lightsaber swing* Interests changed. But I would of course accept another free special figure if the chance came.

It was a limited Theater only edition. The only other way I can think of is buy it from someone who already has it. Or a swap meet. But I doubt anyone would give it up.
