It has been a long time since my last entry in this blog. To be honest i don't even know why or what to publish XD. But today i finally have some thing to post.
Thinking where to start on such enormous lines and series might not be easy. Star wars toy line has begun since 1977 during the debut of Star Wars : A New Hope. The toy line first began with the basic vintage carded figures.
Afterwards the toy line continued with many series, such as :
That list is not even completed yet ! So to start your collection at this time is impossible.
Just kidding, of course you still can start so let us begin !!
But some characters do require more specific collecting style. Such as clone troopers and sormtroopers. Due to the part they play in the movie as a soldier, it means there will be more types into it.So you have 2 choices either you just want ANY clone trooper or you want to get every types and variants. That collecting method is called army building.But i only recomend doing that on 1 specific character not all figures at once.
As for the newer lines you still can get them on markets like Walmart, Walgreens, Kidz station, etc. Above those 2 there is also a better spot which is online shops such as ebay, aliexpress, amazon, etc.
I guessed that's all for part 1.... Thanks for reading and wait for the part 2 : )
Y'all take care and have a good day !!!
Beginner's Guide on collecting the Star Wars 3.75 Figures
Thinking where to start on such enormous lines and series might not be easy. Star wars toy line has begun since 1977 during the debut of Star Wars : A New Hope. The toy line first began with the basic vintage carded figures.
Afterwards the toy line continued with many series, such as :
- The Power of the force
- Power of the Jedi
- Star wars Phantom Menace Line
- Star wars Attack of the Clones ( also known as saga legends)
- Star wars Revenge of the sith line
- Star wars Sequel trilogies
- Star wars the black series
- Star Wars saga collection
- Star wars 30th Anniversary line
- Star Wars Comic pack
- Etc...
That list is not even completed yet ! So to start your collection at this time is impossible.
Just kidding, of course you still can start so let us begin !!
1. Knowing your range
First of all you still have to decide where to start. During my early days of collecting i started from nowhere, literally. All i did is simple, i see a star wars figure then i just buy it. But i wouldn't recomend that tho, because later on you will have a problem on arranging them on the shelve. I would recomend to start from the original trilogy, since it is rich with many characters. Or you can start from the prequel which contained many lines, comics, and movies. But overall the choice is yours : /
But some characters do require more specific collecting style. Such as clone troopers and sormtroopers. Due to the part they play in the movie as a soldier, it means there will be more types into it.So you have 2 choices either you just want ANY clone trooper or you want to get every types and variants. That collecting method is called army building.But i only recomend doing that on 1 specific character not all figures at once.
2. Places to hunt !
As i stated before the toy line had begun since the 1977 so considering the age it is possible to find the old lines at any 2nd hand stores. You should consider places like flea market, thrift stores, and garage sales as a potential hunting spot. I knew it because i have got many good figures from there and not only that the price they offer is also negotiable. Last year i went with my friends to a local flea market and manage to pick myself a carded SWPOTF yak face for 6$, good deal right ?As for the newer lines you still can get them on markets like Walmart, Walgreens, Kidz station, etc. Above those 2 there is also a better spot which is online shops such as ebay, aliexpress, amazon, etc.
