Sad. I’ve been accumulating their pieces for a long time!The effect, I found, was much like the old comics collecting. I found myself anticipating the next Eaglemoss superhero figure in much the same way my (much) younger self had looked forward to the next GREEN LANTERN or FANTASTIC FOUR (and many others).

I just recently picked up this AT-AT for my man cave. The funny thing is Pepper (my dog) just noticed it and I kid you not she very quickly tried to sniff its back side…..

Unfortunately no, it came out in 1997 I picked it up as a Lot purchase that included an original X wing and B wing bomber.

I kept a select few of my original Star Wars toys when I sold up in 1985.
Instantly regretted selling them, but it was 1994 when a bulk buy of figures
- 60 for £45, ah, those were the days - rekindled. My collecting.
I went to a toy fair that year & bought an AT AT for £30, even had a wrecked
box. I’d wanted one back in the day but they were too expensive.

Oh man, the Big Jim line is going to be hard for me to
resist, even though the figures have been scaled down:

And then there were six! I found the Bowen Marrina at a comic shop in the area, and it was nice to pay the original retail cost. Maybe in another 10 years I'll stumble across the twins and Alpha Flight will be complete.

Are you holding out for original price point for them or just can’t find them?

All I’ve seen recently is $200 on eBay, and that’s too rich for me.
