Vintage Make

I've been meaning to update my monthly quest to complete my vintage Star Wars collection for a while now - so I've included the results from May and June here. My goal has been to buy one a month, holding out for the best condition and the best price. I've been stunned at the number of collections that are being unloaded right now, and the decline in price of almost all of these. The economy has really taken a toll on the market for these. People need money, so they're unloading them, but people don't have money, so their value suffers.

In May I got the Death Star Gunner. In June, I really made out: I nabbed Romba, Endor Luke and General Lando all for a $100 - my threshold for any one figure, and the typical price of any one figure. All are in excellent condition.
