Hello all, I have been on the ISY's before.  Here is a play set I made for my boys: http://www.imperialshipyards.net/SMF/index.php?topic=1480.0
I have been thinking about doing a diorama with some biker scouts and stormtroopers, I am slowly building up my figure collection for it.

Name: Ken Varney
Age: 45
Location: Michigan
Job: Disabled Veteran
Favorite SW Character: Darth Vader
Jedi or Sith: Sith
Favorite SW Movie: The original trilogy but if I had to choose then The Return of the Jedi.
Main Collecting Interest: Modern Star Wars 3 3/4" but not to modern, I don't really care for the new movie toy line.
Favorite food/Drink: Steak medium rare and a cold beer.
Other Items Collected: Certain military items, I am a Army vet after all.

Well, not exactly new, more jumped right into posting when I got here a year, and some months ago.

Job: Overnight Stalker ;) (at Target)
Favorite SW Character: Revan

Hey all. Brand new here. I started off collecting figures when I was a kid, went through phases of acquiring over the years, and recently got excited to dig them out and start collecting again when the new movie came out. I went through a stint of model building a few years back, and still circle back to KOTOR every few years, so I thought I'd try my hand at kitbashing. This seems like a good resource, so I'll be posting my experiments when I've got them finished, bad as they will likely be.

Name: Jon
Age: 35
Location: Philadelphia
Job: Art Director
Favorite Star Wars Character: Revan
Jedi or Sith: Jedi
Favorite Star Wars Movie: Empire
Main Collecting Interest: 3.75" and parts for customs
Favorite Food/Drink: Bourbon
Other items collected: 1:700 scale sub models, rare whiskeys and travel tattoos

Welcome to the yards, glad to see a fellow fan of Revan, best SW character there'll ever be. I look forward to seeing your experiments, I bet they'll be better than you think, artists tend to be their own worst critics.
