I mean we can't forget about Tunghori even though he may be winding down. And please folks update this with other sellers who have good deals you have done business with and trust. I will add them to this list

Folks, I am gonna do a story a day this week on the major Star Wars and Custom Fodder Sellers (JOE, Marvel, DC, etc.) on the Evil Bay. If you have time read it, let me know what you think as I feature one seller a day. First out of the gate is Sindolls.
"After perusing ebay a lot these past two weeks trying to score a reasonably priced SDCC Fett (done with that now, thanks Remco)I came to the conclusion that there are a few sellers out there who really seem to be able to offer a ton of Star Wars Figures (even shipping from Asia) for a relatively low fee. Love em or hate em I am to the point where I think probably most of us have used them to plug in that figure we could just never find on the pegs or one we wanted to army build. The first seller out of said gate is one Sinodolls (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2Fsinodolls%2FStar-wars-%2F_i.html%3Frt%3Dnc%26_fsub%3D3087771018%26_sid%3D680720568%26_sticky%3D1%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m14%26_sop%3D1%26_sc%3D1), an Asian Seller, who seems to be selling some figures for almost nothing. I just watched an auction for three droids (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2F3Pcs-Star-Wars-C-3PO-BAD-5D6-RA7-Droid-4-LOM-Hunter-3-75-Action-FIGURES-SP44-%2F350842020423%3Fpt%3DUS_Action_Figures%26hash%3Ditem51afd06247), one of which was a build a droid, that didn't sell for a mere 90 cents! Here is the link (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2Fsinodolls%2FStar-wars-%2F_i.html%3Frt%3Dnc%26_fsub%3D3087771018%26_sid%3D680720568%26_sticky%3D1%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m14%26_sop%3D1%26_sc%3D1) to check out his current auctions (456 as of this post) and then I would love to hear your thoughts on this particular seller."
Do you folks use him? I would love to hear your thoughts and opinions on this major SW Sellers. Most of em seem to center around Asia and we can only assume they are getting factory rejects for nothing and then selling them for huge profit. Hate it all we do I will admit I have used folks like this, Tunghori comes to mind, to get figures I wanted multiples off. Some did not come with some accessories, but overall I couldn't find too much fault with the quality of these figures compared to their basic carded Hasbro counterparts. How Hasbro hasn't shut this down I don't know or perhaps they even test the proverbial waters by allowing these auctions to go forward I think it is one fun topic to think about.
-
Ya theses sellers are nice and all but you gotta watch out. I ordered 2 Fi Skirata RCs from an Asian seller and they both arrived but one had some paint app issues and the other had 2 right legs making the left one appear backwards. These could not be returned either and that was the worst part since they were defective. I have come to think that these are bootleg figures smuggled out of the factory and assembled elsewhere. Another issue I've seen is a seller has some riot clones for a mere 8 dollars but the riot sticks and shields are unpainted and sadly those are some of the best aspects of the figure. I have had some luck with other sellers but you really need to watch out.
-
Like rex smoke said, these sellers are very reasonable but there's always that chance the figure isn't gonna be of the best quality. I've bought 5 Fi Skiratas and their knee and torso joints snapped while trying to pose them. This isn't always the case so if the figures are for your collection be aware of the risk but these types of figures are great for customs and such.
I always figured these figures were factory rejects of some type, or maybe you're right Tamer and they try to test the waters with these figures. If that's the case, they should have took the hint when Tunghori sold out of hundreds of Bastila Shan figures in weeks, if not days even priced at $10 the first run and $15 the second. But who knows.

Ya the other Fi I had without backwards leg snapped a knee when I posed him
-
Good points folks. I think one needs to understand that you won't be getting top of the line and your figure may be missing a few parts, but that leg thing (if the figure was pictured having the correct ones) would definitely be grounds for an ebay case to get your deniro refunded. It is definitely a buyers market when it comes to ebay thats for sure.
-
I did have a buyer return one of those fi figures that I had resold with a snapped leg. I just figured they had got it caught in a vacume cleaner or something.
A lot of those fi figures from the overseas sellers had very loose waist joints. A quality control reject I think. I had always figured that's where a lot of those over seas sellers got there stock from. Vipers kingdom had sold me a proto fett that had a snapped part on it once or twice. He replaced them. with no issues.

Quite a few of our forum members have said they have done business with this particular seller Viperskingdom (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2Fviperkingdom%2FStar-Wars-figure-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D1653126011%26_sid%3D1010532271%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322); another one who hails from Hong Kong. As of this posting there were 128 separate auctions for Star Wars (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2Fviperkingdom%2FStar-Wars-figure-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D1653126011%26_sid%3D1010532271%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322) and about 30 listings for some JOE Figures (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2Fviperkingdom%2FG-I-Joe-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D1644711011%26_sid%3D1010532271%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322) including a small lot of SDCC Exclusive JOES (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2Fviperkingdom%2FG-I-Joe-%2F_i.html%3F_nkw%3Dsdcc%26submit%3DSearch%26_fsub%3D1644711011%26_sid%3D1010532271), some of which are better priced than others. I mean $144 dollar price tag on the Baronnesse with Ravage (http://www.ebay.com/itm/G-I-Joe-Transoformers-SDCC-pre-sales-BARONESS-DECEPICON-BODY-GUARD-LOOSE-/360692192370?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item53faee1472) seems just a tad high to me (2 have supposedly sold at that price), but seeing the new Jetfire Skystriker for $28 (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FG-I-Joe-Transoformers-SDCC-pre-sales-AUTOBOT-JETFIRE-LOOSE-%2F360707059595%3Fpt%3DUS_Action_Figures%26hash%3Ditem53fbd0ef8b) doesn't seem quite like gouging to me.
Like I said yesterday, love em or hate em, most of us have probably used them and will continue to use them to get some of our swag. Lets us know what you think about this seller and others, as well as your opinion on these exposes. I for one have been wanting to do this for awhile and know I will be barely scratching the surface, but perhaps we can all learn a little here including myself!
-
I've done business with sindolls and viperskingdon, being pleasantly surprised with each. While a lot of people claim these sellers have the reject figures they've always been high quality factory fresh for me! Now, I do not recommend buying any figures with cool accessories from them, because chances are they will not be complete. Other than that these two are a great way to score rare figures or army builders at reasonable prices!
-
Yepper, I feel the same way. Don't expect the moon, but you can get some great deals. It might be time to showcase another one this evening or maybe tomorrow. I have been doing some deck work all day.

Tunghori's Star Wars Army Store
(http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f115/CTtamer/VALUEDCUSTOMER/tunghori_zps3e16ac59.png) (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337371631&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FStar-Wars-Army-Store%3F_trksid%3Dp2047675.l2563)
This is the fellow who, in my opinion, started off the Major Action Figure Sellers on the Bay. He showed up with brand new figures, many of which were not even yet released by Hasbro, or even previewed for that point. However, it seems all good things must come to and as right now he only has 82 Auctions up for grabs. I wonder what happened? Still when you see great figures like the McQuarrie Vader (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FSTAR-WARS-Legacy-tac-DARTH-VADER-Mc-Quarrie-Concept-%2F390375092740%3Fpt%3DUS_Action_Figures%26hash%3Ditem5ae42b3204) for 5 bucks and Commander Faie (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FSTAR-WARS-Legacy-COMMANDER-FAIE-tlc-%2F370589042013%3Fpt%3DUS_Action_Figures%26hash%3Ditem5648d4055d) for even less it sure does make you wonder if he has a bit of phoenix in him.
I have to admit I have bought quite a few AT-AT Drivers off this fellow and can't really see a difference in quality with what Hasbro had packaged at the time for less than half the cost. It is gonna be sad to see him go if he is indeed winding down.

Once again this week we have been delving into one of the most intriguing aspects of how we acquire action figures for our collections; major Ebay Sellers. Tonight's feature focuses on Toyssir 2009 (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=11&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&icep_store=toyssir2009&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229466&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg) who seems to be focusing on major Star Wars Prototypes (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FToyssir-2009%2FStar-war-Prototype-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D1102109011%26_sid%3D914605291%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322). I have never collected these myself, but wow the prices don't seem horrible for a prototype item. Speaking of prototypes he also seems to have quite a few Marvel (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FToyssir-2009%2FMarvel-prototype-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D1101331011%26_sid%3D914605291%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322), JOE (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FToyssir-2009%2FGijoe-Prototype-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D1101330011%26_sid%3D914605291%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322) and Transformers (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FToyssir-2009%2FTransformers-prototye-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D1184855011%26_sid%3D914605291%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322) versions as well.
I for one plan on checking out some of these SW Prototypes that include proof cards, vehicles, among other things. I kind of expected these to be way out of my league, but maybe I can grab a few while waiting on the Black Waves to hit. Do any of you collect prototypes. I don't even know where to get started.
-
These sellers can be great (especially for army building) but sometimes it's just a matter of waiting for stuff to pop up from other sellers. You never know what you'll find. Just yesterday I won an auction for both the imperial navy commandos for $16 and free shipping. I guess I've lost trust in these sellers since I haven't received the best quality product. Your feedback seems good so maybe I should try again.

and you can always find that button on the front page as we might get credit if you fine folks do buy something there.
I am gonna see who I want to focus on today. I would also like to find a good dedicated seller for nice carded Black Series Figures too. What do you guys think is too high a price to pay for a good carded figure?
-
As I have mentioned before and echoing Tamer's words, don't expect top of the line figures from these "back door" sellers (no disrespect). As far as wrong limbs, I've had that once with a triple squad of Keller's Marines. One Marine had two left arms.
But again, I personally am interested in these sellers for customizing reasons. If a figure falls apart, that's actually great, because it saves me the work of taking it apart ;D Sometimes I also throw in a Lego figure or two for my daughters.
If you're after complete, collectible grade action figures, go to Dorksidetoys or any of the other ISY sponsors :)
-
Remco sure does state a good point. These folks aren't known for awesome qaulity, but for customizers and the prices you can get figures for you sometimes can't beat their prices.

I must say that his prices are a customizer's dream. While his count for Star Wars Action Figures (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Frover.ebay.com%2Frover%2F1%2F711-53200-19255-0%2F1%3Fff3%3D4%26pub%3D5575055288%26toolid%3D10001%26campid%3D5337373868%26customid%3D%26mpre%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fstores.ebay.com%252Fhappyeverydaysales%252FFigures-%252F_i.html%253F_nkw%253DStar%252BWars%2526submit%253DSearch%2526_fsub%253D3601334015%2526_sid%253D860530455) is not large, the prices he has for them are fantastic. Lets just say the feedback number (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Ffeedback.ebay.com%2Fws%2FeBayISAPI.dll%3FViewFeedback2%26userid%3Dhappyeverydaysales%26ftab%3DAllFeedback) is pretty high for such a large number of sales too. I am definitely gonna be giving this seller a much closer inspection down the road at those prices.
I think folks are liking this. It seems to be garnering a lot of attention on facebook. Go check out these sellers (you clicks help us out) and let us know if you find something we missed; especially if it means better prices for us all!

Hey guys I have en picking up a couple of neat custom Joes that are all vintage inspired while waiting for Retaliation wave 3. They are from a guy who is called The Black Major.
The Black Major on Ebay Link
(http://i1108.photobucket.com/albums/h415/lucasclones/IMG_20130802_145118_zps1cf6cb63.jpg) (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337371392&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fm.html%3F_ipg%3D%26_from%3D%26_nkw%3D%26_armrs%3D1%26_ssn%3Dthe_black_major%26_sop%3D1)
The Yellow guy I got for free on a giveaway he did on Instagram. I ordered another fig today that will come next week.
Also I scored Retaliation on Bluray (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2FDVDs-Movies-%2F11232%2Fi.html%3F_from%3DR40%26_nkw%3Dgi%2Bjoe%2Bretaliation%26_sop%3D1)!

I just got my order from Happyeverydaysales. Today I got the RT drivers and Tie pilots, along with 4 marvel figures. Them all seem very nice to customize.
I have used ViperKingdom and Toysir for lots of figures to customize
All great prices and good shipping times. You can beat free shipping.
Like MR.Black said, i have had to scrap some for parts only when you get two left arms or hands.
I fell that in some cases the legs need to be tweeked.

Thanks for the input. I aim to blow this wide open for the Yarders. Lets find the cheap fodder that is out there so customizing can get a bit cheaper. Lets face it, the regular figure prices don't ever seem to go down.

Our Ebay Series continues with HobbystockCN Toy Store!
(http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f115/CTtamer/VALUEDCUSTOMER/hobocken_zps329f5414.png) (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=11&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&icep_store=Hobbystockcn-Toy-Store&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229466&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg)
I am really glad folks have been enjoying my little foray into the vast empire we know as ebay (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=1&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337370901&customid=&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229466&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg). I am trying to focus on finding the fodder that customizers and collectors in general would like to finally acquire or add more of to their collection. This afternoon's focus is on another very reasonable seller called Hobbystock CN Toy Store (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=11&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&icep_store=Hobbystockcn-Toy-Store&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229466&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg). They really do have a very nice quantity of Star Wars items (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FHobbystockcn-Toy-Store%2FStar-Wars-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D5%26_sid%3D123823815%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322), but they seem to cover most lines. I mean when was the last time you saw a $6 dollar Fordo (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FStar-Wars-Clone-Wars-ARC-Trooper-Captain-Fordo-%2F390439773396%3Fpt%3DUS_Action_Figures%26hash%3Ditem5ae80624d4) or a $3 dollar Ugnaught (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FStar-Wars-Legacy-Ugnaught-Loose-%2F360684586455%3Fpt%3DUS_Action_Figures%26hash%3Ditem53fa7a05d7)? With hundreds of auctions for Star Wars Figures you just might find yourself a good deal, but they have quite a few other lines as well including Indiana Jones (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FHobbystockcn-Toy-Store%2FIndaiana-Jones-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D2347829015%26_sid%3D123823815%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322).
I really appreciate the great feedback I am getting for these as they do take a bit of time to investigate and put together, but as long as the good vibes and great finds continue I will try to scour the evil bay for stuff we all need. I mean lets face it, if you are gonna be a collector and a customizer you are gonna need to have a network. I have quite a few folks I now call great friends for all my hairbrained schemes with trying to find some of the harder to locate SW Action Figures and many of you are probably shaking your head now with me asking you if you have seen this or that. And I do appreciate the help for all those out there willing to make an extra trip to the pegs for me. It means a lot. I am trying to return the favor!

I've used sinodolls, kokomo-toys, dorkside-toys, trollandtoadstore, happyeverydaysales, viperskingdom, ws_toys, jeffreyt2, for fodder and figures I wanted for cheap. I used *best auction* for my silk nihilus v. atris banner. Hope this helps I'll post up any more if I find them.

Hand So Low thank you. I appreciate it. And some of them yes, but I try to go a little more in depth here as I really count the folks here among those I really try to help and whose opinions matter to me.

Heck yes this helps, thank you. My Ebay Expose might just go another week thanks to these names. I appreciate it.

I gotta say this thread has been a great source of info for me. As I've lamented at length in my own custom fig threads, it's always a pain to find SW figures in Japan, and the prices at import toy shops here for new on-card figures makes me think twice about buying multiples for customizing, but hot damn if I haven't found some good deals on some of the stores listed here! (Dropped a bit too much money, but my paypal account is linked to a US bank account that I haven't touched in years and can't access from ATMs over here, so it's not like I'm putting my family finances in danger...)
The fact that a lot of these vendors are operating out of China means that the shipping isn't too outrageous either, compared to some of the American vendors I've seen on ebay charging 20 bucks to send a single figure to Japan. :o
Thanks for all the great info, and keep it coming!

Chad and I have met the owner of this particular stores through our quest appearances on Boring Conversation Anyway (http://www.flyguy.net) and I will say he is a true character! He was a collector long before he opened up his own shingle on Ebay (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=11&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&icep_store=dorksidetoys&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229466&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg) and he really knows what items we want and need for our hobby. With over 150 different Star Wars Items (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FdOrksidetoys%2FSTAR-WARS-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D606531015%26_sid%3D1561455%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322) I bet you can find something cheap for your collection or customizing endeavors. I mean when was the last time you saw a Jedi Starfighter (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FStar-Wars-Exclusive-Kit-Fistos-Jedi-Starfighter-%2F370850920845%3Fpt%3DUS_Action_Figures%26hash%3Ditem56586ff98d) for $10 bucks and other great The Vintage Collection Items (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FdOrksidetoys%2FVintage-Collection-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D2%26_sc%3D1%26_sid%3D1561455%26_sop%3D15%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322) await. I really appreciate the all the great messages folks are sending me about this and trust me I don't aim to end this anytime soon. I also want to give a nice shout out to Darth Streams who also filled me in on some other great sellers we will feature soon.
And keep those deals and sellers coming folks. I am gonna try to update the first post so we have a nice toc soon too.

WS Toys is actually HobbystockCN that we featured earlier. I found that out myself this morning.
Yep. Only good experiences :)
Thanks to you we are all finding some good deals Remco. You started me down this path. I won't have the time to keep up with it here in a little over a week, but I have sure used this info myself to get a few things for other irons I have in the fire.
Speaking of a new post for today!
Todiwa Toys has a little bit of everything!
(http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f115/CTtamer/VALUEDCUSTOMER/todiwatoys_zps64ecbc9d.gif) (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FTodiwa-Toys%2FStar-Wars-%2F_i.html%3Frt%3Dnc%26_fsub%3D13439587%26_sc%3D1%26_sid%3D1754405%26_sticky%3D1%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m14%26_sop%3D10%26_sc%3D1)
Have you ever needed a unique part or just needed ideas about what components you could use in a new custom figure, vehicle or diorama? I think we have all been there. I really have to thank Darth Streams who put me onto this really interesting Ebay Power Seller known as Todiwa Toys (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FTodiwa-Toys%2FStar-Wars-%2F_i.html%3Frt%3Dnc%26_fsub%3D13439587%26_sc%3D1%26_sid%3D1754405%26_sticky%3D1%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m14%26_sop%3D10%26_sc%3D1). From Star Wars (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FTodiwa-Toys%2FStar-Wars-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D13439587%26_sid%3D1754405%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322) to JOE (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FTodiwa-Toys%2FGi-Joe-3-3-4-Figure-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D13439574%26_sid%3D1754405%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322) to just a huge miscellaneous action figure section (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FTodiwa-Toys%2FMisc-Action-Figures-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D13439578%26_sid%3D1754405%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322) I am sure, if nothing else, you can get your creative juices flowing. I tried to make sorting through it a bit easier here, but it is still a bit of a smattering of everything everywhere. He also has a really cheap Vintage Star Wars Parts Section (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FTodiwa-Toys%2FStar-Wars-%2F_i.html%3F_nkw%3Dstar%2Bwars%2Bvintage%26submit%3DSearch%26_sop%3D10%26_fsub%3D13439587%26_sid%3D1754405%26_sc%3D1) for really great prices. I mean when was the last time you saw a non-repro Ewok Village Support part (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FVintage-Star-Wars-Ewok-Village-support-part-unbroken-%2F370812478741%3Fpt%3DUS_Action_Figures%26hash%3Ditem5656256515) for six bucks? Lets face it getting a true vintage replacement part is so much better than having to buy repro pieces. So the Ebay Party continues and there seems to be no end to the goodness you can find if you are willing to look. I even lost a few hours there myself this morning, but perhaps it was my procrastination at getting my car waxing done? :)
I still have a few sellers thanks to Darth Streams, but if any of you spot any good ebay spots for customizers in general at great prices post it here as we would like to know!

I have been enjoying Ray's Vintage Restoration Builds and found a place he could get lost in for my ebay series this morning. I lost about two hours here this morning.
Kokomo Toys

This is a true family owned and operated store in Indiana and they have over 3,700 action figure type items (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FKokomo-Toys%3F_trksid%3Dp2047675.l2563) up for your perusal at great prices.

Man, I can see quite a bit I would like to have myself. I could see Ray easily using these folks to get all kinds of parts for his vintage restoration projects. Don't worry though, they have great JOE (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FKokomo-Toys%2FGi-Joe-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D870140017%26_sid%3D64928627%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322), Marvel/DC (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FKokomo-Toys%2FMarvel-DC-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D2797714017%26_sid%3D64928627%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322), and even Masters of the Universe (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FKokomo-Toys%2FMasters-Of-The-Universe-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D875121017%26_sid%3D64928627%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322) Sections too. I lost way too much time here this morning creating this!
I think it is a good thing I don't live near their store. Their prices seem fair and reasonable. I think they are a worthy addition to this and I thank Darth Streams for sharing them with me for this.

I've heard of this place before but haven't bought from them. But lucky me!! I only live an hour from the store! It's in Kokomo Indiana which isn't to far south from me

I don't know whether to say lucky you or not? I wouldn't be able to collect anything modern with this store near me.

I've noticed that there store is a lot different on ebay. Ebay seems to be much more of the more obscure collectibles. The actual store is more Star Wars and joes. They have A LOT of joes

Seeing Wraithnine's great new work on Keeli shows me how fantastic customs can be in this scale.

I think we are all eagerly anticipating the release of these action figure displays (http://www.imperialshipyards.net/SMF/index.php?topic=8685.0) with me perhaps even more so than the new Black Line, but I figured some folks might need to man up those awesome displays.

Scarlett 25th Anniversary Comic Pack Figure
(http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f115/CTtamer/VALUEDCUSTOMER/ebayscarlett_zps77c15ca6.gif) (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FFreeShip-Scarlett-v8-GI-JOE-25th-Anniversary-Comic-Pack-2008-Figure-SP48-%2F350846599778%3Fpt%3DUS_Action_Figures%26hash%3Ditem51b0164262)
I am still focusing on trying to find the very best customizing fodder for all of our friends here at ISY and last night I found two great products I think would lend themselves well to some great custom figures. First off is this Scarlett 25th Anniversary Figure (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FFreeShip-Scarlett-v8-GI-JOE-25th-Anniversary-Comic-Pack-2008-Figure-SP48-%2F350846599778%3Fpt%3DUS_Action_Figures%26hash%3Ditem51b0164262) that I have just seen made into some awesome customs from many lines. I guess my favorites are those that turn into female Mandos or Imperial Troopers (thanks Remco). Also of note is some great prices on some varied melee and rifle type weapons (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FFree-Ship-New-Lot-36-Pcs-Accessory-GI-JOE-Cobra-G-I-JOE-Action-Figure-M34-%2F390635388950%3Fpt%3DUS_Action_Figures%26hash%3Ditem5af3af0016). I mean your choice of either one for $5 dollars with free shipping sure does seem like a no-brainer to me.

Here's a score of about 40 figures, about 200 bucks spent (including shipping) from sinodolls and ws_toys.
(http://i1167.photobucket.com/albums/q622/Laojax/9672A9A3-7CC9-4B95-8182-CA922EE73D4C-8870-00000A501B85EF92.jpg)

As can be expected, some are obvious factory rejects with misassembled limbs, etc, but my only real complaint is that ws_toys overcharged me for shipping, claiming on their info page to offer $5 for the first figure and $1 for each additional, but they charged me $5 each. I'm in the process of contesting this but my emails to them have been ignored. Anyone have similar problems with this vendor? If they were based in Japan I could complain in Thor mother tongue but I'm afraid my Chinese is limited to simple greetings... :'(
-
That stinks.
One thing I would do for your ebayers out there who win multiple auctions where they say they will combine shipping. Do not paypal until you request and invoice from the seller for the correct shipping price. I learned this the hard way too one time.
I will say though if you open an ebay complaint or grievance or whatever its called nowadays that they usually always side with the buyer so you should still be good Laojax.
-
with these guys ALWAYS choose option" request total from seller" BEFORE you pay ! thats when you get your shipping adjustment
-
Anyone know where i can get some complete cheap stormtroopers? need them for the bday contest
-
Since eBay now gets a percent of the shipping cost, I will notice that sometimes when my auctions renew or are relisted, the combined shipping option that I had set will vanish. It is by their design, I would suspect. Just another trick up their sleeve.
Yep, just click request total from seller.
-
Thanks to Sjefke I am seeing a whole new range of great products when it comes to three and three quarter customizing. I think this latest one has thought of about every weapon or AF Accessory we might ever need:

I mean these items are just a few dollars. I haven't seen so many different heavy and regular weapons anywhere.

I wanted to expand on a few of the items you can get from Marauder Inc (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fmarauder_inc%2Fm.html%3F_nkw%3D%26_armrs%3D1%26_ipg%3D%26_from%3D) that I very briefly showcased last night.
This is the main link:
Marauder Inc
(http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f115/CTtamer/VALUEDCUSTOMER/marauder-gun-runners_zps8bc7654f.gif) (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fmarauder_inc%2Fm.html%3F_nkw%3D%26_armrs%3D1%26_ipg%3D%26_from%3D)
I wanted to showcase a few of the items I really liked though that are some things that would really lend themselves to adding some extra accessories and diorama possibilities:
Locker Wardrobe

They remind me of what I had when I was in basic training and AIT!
Bulletin Board/Black Board
(http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f115/CTtamer/VALUEDCUSTOMER/bulletinblackboard_zps6b67af27.jpg) (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FBulletin-Board-Blackboard-1-1-18-Scale-Accessory-for-3-3-4-Action-Figures-%2F200946282313%3Fpt%3DUS_Action_Figures%26hash%3Ditem2ec954ef49)
How easy would it be to convert this to any tactical diorama whether it be JOE or Star Wars?
Probably the main thing I know Marauder Inc for is their awesome custom weapons, some with removable clips, bi-pods, special grips, etc. Take a look at this good example:
Custom 1 to 18 Scale Weapons

I mean its another no-brainer.
And don't forget about your heavy weapons:

Folks, I am really just scratching the surface too. There is just about any kind of weapon you can think of and any type of set piece you might be thinking of so just hit the link at the top and have fun.

Thanks for the tips on shipping, guys! I'll try lodging a grievance with eBay and see what happens. Would be great of I could get that sixty beans back!

Wow this seller is great. Those bunks look just like the ones in the clone barracks we see on umbarra

Your S+H should get adjusted. When I ordered multiple items from this seller, I was charged for the item with the highest shipping cost, and the rest was free.

Anyone know where i can get some complete cheap stormtroopers? need them for the bday contest
I have your Stormies.
You gotta go thru the seller's entire inventory sometimes to find deals. Sinodolls is inexpensive, but descriptions aren't accurate. They certainly aren't collectors.
Check out these so called "Clone Troopers". ::)

Thanks to Sjefke I am seeing a whole new range of great products when it comes to three and three quarter customizing. I think this latest one has thought of about every weapon or AF Accessory we might ever need:
My pleasure Tamer. This is good quality stuff too. The plastic is hard, durable stuff. It's nothing like what Hasbro gives us. You wont believe the detail either.
-
Wow Sjekfe, those prices are great with free shipping on those stormies too.
Looks like that first set of Stormies sold out already (we are good).
Here is another link I think folks will find handy when it comes to Stormies:

Its about time I continued our Ebay Series this time with our very own the Clonehead!
(http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f115/CTtamer/VALUEDCUSTOMER/clintcat_zps217f06c5.jpg) (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FClints-Toys-and-Video-Games%2FCustom-Resin-Star-Wars-GIJOE-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D15%26_sid%3D171379787%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322)
I have probably known Clint almost as long as I have been in this hobby and I consider Clint a good friend in addition to one of the best custom artist I know. His work schedule as a rigger is always dependent on weather, but he is always dabbling in the best parts and pieces and that you need to make that great custom figure or diorama. First off just go check out his ebay store (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337371392&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FClints-Toys-and-Video-Games%3F_rdc%3D1) and then take a look at his Resin Casted SW and JOE Products (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FClints-Toys-and-Video-Games%2FCustom-Resin-Star-Wars-GIJOE-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D15%26_sid%3D171379787%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322).

Custom Heads that are really popular. Trying to buy the entire figure outright will break your bank account, but getting just the piece you need for that ultimate custom figure for a fraction of the cost is just using your noggin. Trust him to deal fairly and quickly as his feedback score (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%3Cbr%3E%3Cbr%3E%2Fusr%2Fclint1130cat) speaks for itself.

Nice casts, that Cody cast is amazing, if only I had some figures in that size.
Also, it looks like tunghori has listed a lot more figures, including HK-50. I saw he had a TVC Bastila for auction last night, maybe he has more and is testing the waters, hard to say. So if anyone is looking for a Bastila, I'd keep an eye out for this just in case.
-
Thanks for the message DarthDrew. I will go take a look and perhaps do a front page posting today.

I saw that our Clonehead has added some much needed AT-TE and LAAT missles and wanted to get em featured:

As you can see these are just spot on accurate and fit in the right places. I have done business with Clint numerous times and he always goes above and beyond to make sure you are pleased.

Those look great. I dont know if this is the right place to be posting this but does anyone know how to fix the spring loaded projectile cannons on the Gunships or AT-TEs? Whenever i put the bullets in the stay for about 3 seconds and then shoot.

I am back with a Sinodolls update. I got lost here for over an hour yesterday. Just a ton of good deals with free shipping. You probably won't get an accessory or weapon or two, but for the price it just seems like a no-brainer.

I was looking for some Colonel Vogel figures yesterday, but couldn't recall his name. So, I just did a "indiana jones figure" search and boom, a whole lotta results, including Vogel.
I found him at an eBay store called Jimmy's Toys Master Shop (http://stores.ebay.com/JIMMYS-TOYS-MASTER-SHOP?_trksid=p2047675.l2563 (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FJIMMYS-TOYS-MASTER-SHOP%3F_trksid%3Dp2047675.l2563)), along with a couple of other figures that could come in handy.
Will let you know if and when the figures arrive.
Anyway, with these Asian sellers, I think it's best to keep your search string as simple as possible. Don't look for a specific character, but look for "star wars figure". On top of that, try checking the "free shipping" option. A lot of these Asian sellers have free shipping.
Here's the search string:
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_from=R40&LH_FS=1&_ipg=200&_nkw=star+wars+figure&LH_PrefLoc=2&_sop=10 (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_sacat%3D0%26_from%3DR40%26LH_FS%3D1%26_ipg%3D200%26_nkw%3Dstar%2Bwars%2Bfigure%26LH_PrefLoc%3D2%26_sop%3D10)
Again, I look at this from a customizer's point of view, not a collector's.

Received my figures from Jimmy today. Bought them on the 13th and received them on the 23rd. All in good order and of a grade A quality. Looks like I have another figure supplier!

Off topic: it appears Ebay has changed the default search options. Normally, I search for worldwide, but these past days the search always checks for domestic listings. On top of that, when I do an advanced search in my 'saved sellers', I get results for the entire Ebay! Does anyone else have this issue as well?
-
I hadn't noticed anything like this yet Remco. That will be a major pain if they keep that up.

Another funny thing I've noticed: when I visit Sinodolls (for instance) on ebay.com I get 3,500+ items in his store. When I got to ebay.nl I get..... 13?! Ebay UK only lists 135 items....

Wow Jay! You got all that for less than $60? Time to take this announcement to the front page and put your name on it Jay. I appreciate you posting about this.

only the armour the helmet, minigun,hands,rifle were extra but the savings on the armour set were phenomenal !i already had a bodysuit and body .

Great score, Jay!

I believe that vipers kingdom dropped the ball on me.
I ordered two buy it now auctions which he marked as shipped within a day and won an online auction two days later which he marked as shipped within a day and attached a tracking number onto. I had assumed he was shipping em all together as I had placed a bid on the last one the same day as I bought the other two.
Got the won auction two days ago but not the other 6 figures from three days previous.
After writing in, he claimed that the postal service had lost em and he would send replacements.
Feels more like he missed em.
Gues I'm stuck waiting for me. Freebies would be a nice compensation but I don't expect em.

Well that stinks!

I have to thank Remco via his Google Page for alerting me to great resource for six inch soft goods:
Ebay Resource for Soft Goods via seller rickhor409
(http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f115/CTtamer/CTtamer001/ebaysoftgoods_zpscdcfe1e6.gif) (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Frickhor409%2Fm.html%3F_nkw%3D%26_armrs%3D1%26_ipg%3D%26_from%3D)
This is another Asian Seller, but for $4.50 how can you go wrong! Right now he has quite a few different colors of ponchos for the six inch figures (like the one pictured above for Fett), but it also seems like he sells Jedi Robes (various colors) from time to time too so that might be a link you want to bookmark.
Evidently there must be a pretty big demand for soft goods female clothing as there is some of that listed too. Remco sent me a great FWOOSH Link (http://thefwoosh.com/2014/05/star-wars-6-inch-black-series-custom-jedi-robes) for those of you who want to check out what one customizer did with the soft good Jedi and Sith Robes from this same seller:
(http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f115/CTtamer/CTtamer001/Jedi-Robes9_zps6755f477.jpg)
I look forward to seeing what other items we might get. I may even try to message this seller to see if perhaps I can suggest a few items (like a Slave Liea robe or some kamas for the upcoming Clone Trooper). I will let you know if I hear anything back.

This Seller has listed the new Black Series Figures (Bastilla, Dak, Yoda, Snowtrooper Commander, Toryn, Luke) up for purchase now. It looks like you could get them months ahead of schedule if you don't mind paying a few dollars more per figure. Actually I was quite surprised the prices weren't a bit higher!

Vipers Kingdom is already listing 3 and 3/4 Wave 8 Figures!
I just posted that he had listed the full Wave 7 (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fm.html%3F_odkw%3Dstar%2Bwars%26_sop%3D10%26_ssn%3Dviperskingdom%26_armrs%3D1%26_from%3DR40%26_osacat%3D0%26_from%3DR40%26_trksid%3Dp2046732.m570.l1313.TR10.TRC0.A0.H0.Xblack%2Bseries%2Bwave%2B7.TRS0%26_nkw%3Dblack%2Bseries%2Bwave%2B7%26_sacat%3D0) for the Black Series 3 and 3/4 Inch and now I see he is back with three figures from Wave 8 (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fm.html%3F_ssn%3Dviperskingdom%26_sop%3D12%26_from%3DR40%26_sacat%3D0%26_nkw%3Dblack%2Bseries%26rt%3Dnc%26rmvSB%3Dtrue) in the form of the Jawa Two Pack, Han in Carbonite (there is no block in the auction though), and Commander Fox.

Staring a feature on Action Figure Accessories...
I have been going through some of my own bins and totes and noticing I am missing a few things. Call it my own forgetfulness or my tendency to just loose things or my daughter helping me out in that regard or it could even be the family pets Vader and Luke I am missing some stuff for my own loose action figures. Of course the best place to replace some of that missing stuff is on eBay and I had to start with Vipers Kingdom (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2Fviperkingdom%2FStar-Wars-figure-%2F_i.html%3F_nkw%3Dassorted%2Bguns%26submit%3DSearch%26_sop%3D10%26_fsub%3D1653126011%26_sid%3D1010532271%26_sc%3D1), one of the Asian Power Sellers, and low and behold he has quite a few great buy it now auctions at very low prices to replace some of my missing action figure gear. I could even see cutting up some of these to make some great new weapons by piecing different parts together!
Look for us to feature things here in the near future that you can buy to enhance your existing three and three quarter and six inch loose action figures. Between soft goods and other hard accessories there is a lot you can get out there today to really enhance your regular action figure lines.

Want some quality soft goods for your 6" Action Figures?
JDeck just showed us a great WIP Jawa the other day in a custom project update and I asked about the great soft goods on his build. He kindly sent me a link to the eBay Seller Rickhor409 who I searched up this morning and found out he has a great collection of Jedi Robes and Mandalorian Ponchos (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_nkw%26_sacat%3D0%26_udlo%3D6.00%26_udhi%3D7.50%26_ftrt%3D901%26_ftrv%3D1%26_sabdlo%26_sabdhi%26_samilow%26_samihi%26_sadis%3D15%26_stpos%3D26301%26_fss%3D1%26_fsradio%3D%2526LH_SpecificSeller%253D1%26_saslop%3D1%26_sasl%3Drickhor409%26_sop%3D12%26_dmd%3D1%26_ipg%3D50%26rt%3Dnc%26_mPrRngCbx%3D1). The prices seem very reasonable, his feedback is good, so I figured I would try to pass the word along.

I got a message from rickhor409 last night he says the obi wan robes will be in stock shortly.

I have decided to make Wednesday our what do we sorely need and try to show you where to find it day. Last week out we featured some of the awesome 6" Soft Goods Cloaks by one rickhor409 (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FCustom-Dark-Cocoa-Cloak-for-Luke-Skywalker-Star-Wars-6-Black-Series-NO-FIGURE-%2F181861837408%3Fhash%3Ditem2a57cf6a60) and we got a most excellent response.
Well today I am back with a way for you to get a 6" Han Solo in Carbonite (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337377665&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_odkw%3Dhan%2Bsolo%2Bin%2Bcarbonite%26_osacat%3D0%26_from%3DR40%26_trksid%3Dp2045573.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.Xhan%2Bsolo%2Bin%2Bcarbonite%2B6%2Binch.TRS0%26_nkw%3Dhan%2Bsolo%2Bin%2Bcarbonite%2B6%2Binch%26_sacat%3D0).

Get that hard to find part from Clint's Toys and Video Games!
We have all been there. You need one piece of one action figure and you don't need the whole thing. What do you do? Most of us bite it and buy the entire thing knowing the parts we don't need will collect dust. Well let the Clonehead save you all that waste (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337371392&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2FClints-Toys-and-Video-Games) by getting just the part you need. From helmets to heads to other great parts and accessories you will find exactly what you need at a great price.
Some of the things that are popping out to me right now are:

"This Asian seller offers these in different ways (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2F390813730585%3Ful_noapp%3Dtrue).

The price works out to a little more than $1 for 14 POA figure. Tan uniformed figures are a little boring, but if you just want to harvest the ball joints! It's really economical."
What a great way to get some cheap fodder! Matter of fact if you want Star Wars Figures, eBay Power Seller Sinodolls has a ton of Star Wars Fodder (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fstores.ebay.com%2Fsinodolls%2FStar-wars-%2F_i.html%3F_fsub%3D3087771018%26_sid%3D680720568%26_trksid%3Dp4634.c0.m322) too!

Good ole Tunghori still delivering great prices...
I was reminded by Mandalore25 this past week that Asian Power Seller Tunghori, the guy who started it all with the Asian eBay Power Sellers, was still delivering great prices,
"Found the parts at a great bargain, so I just had to make him. Wish I'd bought another, but this Clone Wars Boss isn't too pricey: http://www.ebay.com/itm/STAR-WARS-the-clone-wars-Republic-Commando-BOSS-cw11-/371498109034?hash=item567f03486a:g:x-YAAOSwgyxWXIyG (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FSTAR-WARS-the-clone-wars-Republic-Commando-BOSS-cw11-%2F371498109034%3Fhash%3Ditem567f03486a%3Ag%3Ax-YAAOSwgyxWXIyG)
if anyone is looking to make one."
Looks like 93 of them have sold so far. Think it would be a good idea to re-release this guy Hasbro? Duh uh! Matter of fact, Tunghori has a ton of great Vintage, TFA, and Black Series items up for grabs at great prices.

I was looking around on eBay and found some resin statues on auction ending in a few days. A seller called toxicmodels http://m.ebay.com/sch/i.html?isRefine=true&_pgn=1&_nkw=seller%3Atoxicmodels&_sasl=toxicmodels&_sacat=49212&cnm=Star+Wars++(93) (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fm.ebay.com%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3FisRefine%3Dtrue%26_pgn%3D1%26_nkw%3Dseller%253Atoxicmodels%26_sasl%3Dtoxicmodels%26_sacat%3D49212%26cnm%3DStar%2BWars%2B%2B%2893) from Spain. Theyre 54mm scale so they stand at about 6cm depending on the figure, some of them are 70mm. They're statues you can position the arms and head, but no articullation, and you have to paint them. They come with a pedestal that looks pretty cool. He has tons of them including AT-AT driver, Bib Fortuna, captain Antilles, Wicket, Maul and many many more, just tons and tons. Im going to bid on the Akbar statues. They look pretty cool.
I just realized now that these figures are resin castings of the De Agostini chess set figurines. They're still pretty cool, but keep that in mind. Sometimes you can get the de Agostini figurines cheaper and they're authentic.
-
That is pretty cool. I am not seeing anything when I hit that link though.
I need to try and find those D Figures, at least of the Driver anyhow.

He's got the Star Destroyer kit in. More than 10 available. He raised the price by $1.00 but still better than other dealers.

UPDATE! I found it again and JDeck is indeed correct. More SD at $5.80! Minus the one I ordered!

After a pretty hectic and eventful last twelve months (personal issues and last but not least, a broken foot :/ ), I've been slowly getting back into the SW game. I haven't got a clue what the status is of the Black Series and whether or not there are still 3.75" with more than 5POA. Anyway, while browsing eBay, I stumbled on this nice offer:

Mind you, I'm from Europe, and 6" Black Series figures retail here for approx. $28-$30 each... So, this is an awesome deal.

Good for you. Glad to read you are still in it. That is a pretty good price for a normally $30 figure!

grooveman76 is one seller on ebay who I know for a couple years now. I never bought from him, yet, but I've been watching his auctions. And I'm amazed how much people bid for loose figures by now.
Many Star Wars fan sites make indirect advertisment for shady tunghori. Nobody knows where this seller from Macau gets his/her figures for sure.
And I share his new listings, too! So I think it's more than fair to feature other sellers on here as well!
I also wonder where grooveman76 gets his stock! He has very rare figures up for auction on a regular base such as TLC Ulic-Qel Droma and Quinlan Vos and other Comic Pack figures like Darth Nihl.
Every few weeks (or once a month) he offers about 100 auctions including at least one figure.
It's also remarkable that some loose figures that are still avaialable (or just released!) go for more than their MRSP - TVC Zorii Bliss for example is at $14.56 as of this post!
It's astounding how the secondary market for loose figures changed over the last decade. Many figures are sold for higher prices in the United States than people are willing to pay for them here in Germany! I remember German collectors buying a lot on ebay.com even though shipping and customs fees are huge! It still paid off. By now all the good stuff is still available, but man did the prices rise...
Here's the link to his ebay store: grooveman76

What are your thoughts on loose action figures being sold on ebay? Did you know grooveman76 and have you already purchased some figures from him to add to your collection?
I think his assortment is amazing. He also has TAC Darth Revan and Malak almost in every series of auctions and sometimes he also sells figures of different lines such as MARVEL.
He got almost all modern figures from 1995 until today!

Hm, just checked Grooveman76, but it seems his store is empty...?

He had stuff in there the other day. Wonder if the online exposure got him or her caught doing something on the dark side?

Yeah, as mentioned above he only uploads once a month or so. But when he does he sells about 200+ figures and people bid enough that he could live from that 'til the next lot goes up for sale.
I'll share some pictures on the seperate topic on where these auctions ended...crazy prices!

Yeah, don't worry. He uploads those lots once a month or every 5 weeks. The last auctions brought some serious money, again! So I think he can make a good living from ebay!

Click here (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=11&pub=5575055288&toolid=10001&campid=5337373868&customid=&icep_store=sinodolls&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229466&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg) to see the full offerings from the eBay Power Seller known as Sinodolls!
Odd enough that I received a push-notification by ebay today that sinodolls listed 4,208 new items. But I cannot find his store anymore. The links you provided for almost all Asian power sellers don't work anymore. We were talking about this the other day. No matter which international version of ebay I use, they seem to be gone. Have toy companies like Hasbro actually taken action against this black market for loose toys? I mean even mighty TungHori seems to struggle getting the latest figures in recently...
-
Yeah, I am thinking they are all pretty much out of business. I need to get into that thread one day and either remove or fix the links.

I won the auction for this Droid Factory 2-Pack back in August. Actually I planned to pick 'em up in person because I really admire the seller though I never met him.
Thanks to him I could add various figures of TAC and TLC to my collection.
Eventually I had to stop trying and paid an extra 6€ for shipping.
Today Don Fisto and his droid arrived. I can now proceed and delete my account on ebay.
It's the second time I was active on this crap club. 2013-2020 was a good time mostly.
But when I started selling on ebay myself in 2021, the trouble began.
Some other buyers have weird expectations. And feebay kept 330€ of my money for 4 whole months! I'm outta here and on my way out of consuming, too!
There are better ways to enjoy this hobby.

Cool that you got this set - I really like it. Sorry about the ebay woes. I've had a generally good experience with ebay, but I don't sell and I don't use any of the international ebays (just the US). I also don't actually buy that much.
-
Well, I deleted my account on ebay. But one power seller is back with some interesting listings.
Lots of TVC figures without their head. Could this be the reason why mighty TungHori has trouble getting his hands on the latest figures? Maybe Hasbro changed the way of production in order to prevent product piracy and theft.
I'm going to take some screenshots.
But with all 3D printed heads available out there, this is customizing heaven right here!
Check this out!

These seem to be all bodies available at the moment. Some sets are already sold out.
No surprise at $2.30 per body...
-
Update: ebay offers check-out as guest, now! So I was able to buy 5 sets with a total of 28 figure bodies. I'll post an update when they arrive in about 10-30 days.
My experience with retexchange so far were all good!
I was hoping to find these listings on AliExpress, but couldn't find them. So I'm glad that I could buy on ebay with PayPal, but without an account.

Nice. Time to go share this. I hope they turn out good!

Update: The figures arrived in two separate parcels only 9 days after I placed my order as guest on ebay!

They were even so kind to replace the second Armorer figure with a body of Luminara Unduli. And instead of a second AOTC Obi-Wan body they gave me a TVC Nikto Skiff Guard!
I can recommend this seller. Would you believe that these are my first two TVC Death Star Gunners? They scream CUSTOM to me! I'm going to complete them with a TSC Death Star Gunner Helmet.
-
Glad to hear this worked out.

Glad this seemed to work out for you. I was able to get a bunch of bodies without heads from an ebay vendor with a different vendor name...but it looks amazingly similar, hmmm....I'll have to look the vendor up again.
-
Thanks Jeff! Well, that's very likely because there are a hand full of different power sellers with almost identical assortments on ebay. I'm sure they belong to the same corporation.
I used to buy from the cheapest seller, can't remember their username, but I do remember that viperskingdom was a different one.

I really like those Jawa bodies, might have to pick a couple up :)
