Hehehe, something which I doubt if I'll ever forget....display was very different from what I had envisioned...

Part of the problem is because some of the vintage figures are in damaged cards, but still in the bubble. Couldn't bear opening them.

There was also a lack of stands to display all, so I've had to manage with all that I had.

At first I thought the display is on loan by Kenner or Hasbro or even if by collector must have made up by a few guys.

ONE GUY COLLECTION.....

better don't remove them from the damaged cards.

guess you are the only guy who has "collect 'em all" in Singapore (old and New)

like your star wars space ship too.

do you display them at your home or stored them away. it is simply MASSIVE.

This coin cost me $400+ SGD, since now the price of coin is crazy I would say to complete a full collection you will need at least $5k to $6k SGD.

The most expensive coin will be Greedo & Priness Leia (With R2D2)

Yupz, there is a 1Â½mm chip off on the face

The At-At coin now is crazy, I ever saw it ended at $80+ USD and for the FX-7 is rather fishy to me as this seller dun seem to sell alot of Star Wars coin and the edge (it should have those line) of the coin does not seem to have what a standard coin should have.

The Luke Skywalker Dagobah coin is 1 in which I have yet to get, but would get it one of these day

The greedo coin is a customise coin, so the backing is totally flat

ha better to get it! and don't wait, you never know when to come across again!

my first 6 COINS...

i came across some coins today and got myself a lot of 6. at a pretty low price. for me unlikely to complete all, intend to get the last 17 coins for my figures and the ewoks coins. EWOKS ARE MY FAVOURITE..

warok, romba, han solo carbo, EV-9D9, Luke skywalker(rebel leader), Lando(rebel general)... at USD25 inclusive of postage.

can you let me know more about the coin price, I am lacking knowledge here as I don't study them very often.. ....

what is the average price each for the last 17 figures (coins).. and which is the most expensive..

redstar19 : POTF last 17 coins mostly is cheap but only 2 coins will be more expensive and it will be Anakin Skywalker & Yak Face which is from CAT II. I believe you can afford all of them provided you never touches those CAT IV & V

Like my friend, the venerable Jedi Master YODA has said,

"Once you START down the DARK path, FOREVER will it DOMINATE your DESTINY"

Here is a pic of Master Yoda with his Orange Snake and his Category II Coin from a certain venerable Vintage Collector who is Singapore's northern neighbour

where this pose is inspired by these pictures from Kenner's Vintage 1980 TESB 32 Card Back :

and Mini KENNER in-packaging catalog :

Now padawans HEED the wise words of Master YODA or forever be dominated by the Dark Side of the Force...

You mean these 2 Coins here from my collection?

I CAN ASSURE you that the Greedo Coin that you see in the pic above is the REAL DEAL and NOT some FAKE Repro coin.

Perhaps this picture here will MOTIVATE you to ADD this Category V Luke Skywalker - Dagobah COIN to your Vintage Star Wars Coin collection SOONER than you think.
