Jkno's Imperial Command Center
« on: August 08, 2008, 02:09:58 PM »
I'm a Star Wars collector from Eastern Europe. As you maybe already know my focus are Original Trilogy Imperials & Troopers. No more Prequels collecting for me, with very few exceptions. :)

Serg sure does have some nice high end stuff. Wish I could afford half of it!

A good friend of mine, collector on Rebelscum, also said that. ;) The answer is pretty simple: I don't have a lot of money - ok, my salary is somehow bigger now with my Ph.D., but the main point is I focus. I'm going only for Imperials stuff and don't buy all the Hasbro figures. Not that I wouldn't like to, but because I cannot since there are no Star Wars figures in Romania at current time.

So if I want to buy a new carded Hasbro figure I would pay 3-4 times the price a US fan would because of shipping and import tax & fees etc. I wanted to order 3 Imperials figures from BBTS and total plus shipping would be over $80, the same with Entertainment Earth or other stores. So why bother in the first time? Thus I better save my hard earned money for higher end collectibles. And again, I focus here as well :)

Wish I had your focus then! Whatever way you spell it, it sure is a nice grouping of SW merchandise Serg.

Finally I got my eFX stormtrooper helmet. :) Special thanks to Bryan and Amy at eFX! The helmet is awesome, I really love the new stand and plaque much better then the old MR ones and very elegant. As for the helmet itself it is AMAZING! Very detailed and I love the wonkiness that comes with this splendid replica.

Hope soon eFX will make an Original Trilogy Darth Vader helmet, that would be great to get together with Stormie helmet.

Thanks. I wanted this Stormtrooper helmet really bad since it fits my Imperial focus so well. Glad Bryan at eFX helped me getting one
