Title: My Collecting Addiction
Post by: jedijeff on February 11, 2012, 08:22:57 AM
Over the past few years, I have been addicted to these small block style Japanese Star Wars figures called Kubricks. When I got home from the Phantom Menace, these were waiting for me as the post office. I am really excited this time, as they are starting to do these in a vintage style. I think the Vintage Style Darth Vader is my favorite, but the Vintage Style Tie Fighter Pilot is cool as well. I liked the Captain Antilles and Imperial Dignitary as well, as they are new. Vintage style Princess Leia is cool, and the R2 is not bad also, but already have a few of him, and the differences are just minor. The build a figure was a probe droid, that looks pretty good. I think I like it more then the Hasbro one I have. I also included a picture of the glasses I got at the Movie yesterday.

Yeah, I do as well, it comes in pieces as one piece with each figure, so had to put him together. But I like the paint on it much more then any Hasbro one I ever got.

Those look great.  I found a box full of star wars figures from the late 70's early 80's.  They belonged to a nephew of mine, who donated them to my son.  :)
