Believe it or not at least one other Star Wars collector haunts this board. I've got over 500 figures at the last count, I'm quite a collector all around ,in fact it's die-cast aircraft are one of the few things I don't collect!

I also collect some Star Wars Figures. I have about 75 to date.
My step-son has well over 250. I collect a ton of Diecast in all scales as aviation is my real interest. Everything about it, I find fascinating as well as very cool.

There is a great sale going on at 'walden books'.the regular price for the C-3po and the bounty hunter is $75ea. but,incredible as it sound you can get them at $9.99 at that bookstore!
this weekend is Star wars weekend at MGM orlando.

I've got all three and, no, didn't fork out the big $75 price tag upon initial release. There are still plenty of the latter two figures at Border's stores in the Dallas area. The first figure (Anakin Darth Skywalker) was produced in much fewer quantities and is long sold out at retail.

All three of these, along with several G.I. Joe figures a few years back, were released by Chronicle Books. A seemingly unique concept - 12" action figure with accompanying book - that apparently didn't go over too well. More likely the case - the later C3po and Bounty Hunter were produced in much too great a quantity.
