Wow, some amazing stuff there! Wish I could get my hands of some of that
That is a seriously awesome collection! :D
Wow. That is huge. I bow to the awesome might of the collector!
holy s**t. i'm looking at it now and only at halfway through the page.
yeah no worries matey.. just quote em as mine.
But you're not volkercs, right? I'll send the user a PM via potf2.com.
no im not he is a variant collector on POTF2.. I was highlighting his collection with this thread
Definitely a completist. I noticed he had the same Fett figure but the only difference were the miniature figs on the back. I only wanted to get the Fett figure with the Fett miniature with it. I wouldn't have room for that many, I think.
Yeah hes certainly complete. My collecting is small potaoes. I want the Fett evolutions and he has what... 5,6? :P
Sadriel is right a collection of that magnitude would certainly take up much space, and I can imagine much money as well.

i would have that many if i lived in the usa nut in the UK an evos set is $40-45 so multiples aint cheap I have 2 currently I think I have 9 or 10 potf2 fett variations too but its not affordable to get em all
Yeah, I hear that. They still only have 3 variations of the Fett Evolutions packs? I'm kind of hoping they'll come out with one that has the chest emblem on it.
I thought they did?
I can't seem to find that evolution pack anywhere!

they are doing one with the emblem it was in a Hasbro Q+A a few weeks back but a few months till it comes..
This kind of stuff is what really makes me angry! Some guy walks into a store and buys every one of the boba fett figures that is released! He is not buying them to play with he is not buying them for a collection, he is buying them to make money off them! I collect all star wars toys but boba mainly. I can afford to buy everyone that the store has but I am happy with one. People forget that these are kids toys and I sleep better at night knowing that if some kid walks into the store and has the chance to get a boba fett toy that he is gonna grow up loving the same thing as us. This is not a great collection, this guy would not love every figure that he has! This is a some one that is trying to make money off something that should be a passion not something where you are gonna rip other collectors off with cause they want one of the figures that you have a dozen of!

I hear you. New collectors have to start somewhere. I feel like one Boba figure would entertain a kid and make him happy longer and better than it would a collector who owns 7 of them and puts them in storage. But, he is a collector and thats what he does...

he aint doing it to make money he collects all SW figs like that... every variation..
I do it wih fett when i find it but being in the UK variants are hard to come by as so little product hits our small isle and when it does just one shipment of most things come in an no restocks like in the USA.
I have a friend who is a variant collector an keeps a close tabs on POTF2 etc to make sure he has it all.
we went to SWC3 together and he kept finding me fett stuff I didnt have from dealers there. but then I found a POTF2 dark flashback Leia with 00 padme pic on the back he spent over $2000 on it and it wasnt even mint !!
he and I will never sell our collections if we can help it we just love collecting. !
I understand what you are saying mate I am the same in the fact that I buy from dealers and that but from the pics it looks like he bought alot of stuff straight form the shelves! I am not trying to pick a fight here, its just what I believe. Everyone is entitled to do and buy what they want. Sorry if my post upset you in anyway!
That is incredible!!1 I really want that picture of Fett and IG-88 auto'd by Jeremy Bulloch. And if you look at the ESB pic art of Boba, Bossk, IG, and Dengar, (mistakenly labeled ROTJ) it has info I never new. It is most likely not canon, but it came before Tales of the Bounty Hunters, or the Bounty Hunter wars. It says IG is also known as Phludroid, and that Zuckuss is amphibious. Which, he's not in the books.
