Hi All,
New to the forums and thought I'd just say 'Hi' and let you all in on my sad little story, which unfortunately, actually happened.
Not too long ago, in a galaxy very near at hand, I was moving house, had my whole life in the speeder.... well, car. Went for dinner (stoopid, I know). Some nameless faceless mutt stole the car while I was eating. I lost my car, my clothes, my books, PC, everything else I owned, plus a small but sentimentally valued bundle of loose 1977-83 SW figures. I had these from childhood and had looked after them, they were all at least c8. Looking back I now think they could keep all the stuff, even the car, if only I could have those few items back.
A Jedi craves not such happenings.....
Never was much of a collector until this unfortunate event, still haven't anything much of a collection, but I've met some very interesting people and found a whole world of memorbilia out there I never knew existed.
I've managed to get hold of most of the figures through websites etc, but a few have eluded me. If anyone out there has a Jawa, Emperor's Gaurd, Bib Fortuna, Die Cast Y-Wing or any other loose vintage stuff they are not too attached to, please let me know.
Alternatively, if anyone had a similarly life changing nasty Star Wars experience, I'd love to know I'm not the only one.
Thanks,
Boru
PS. Strange how the thought of throwing that car thief to a Rancor still has its appeal
