Re: Sci-Fi diecast? Anyone?

Believe it or not, my starship collecting predates my diecast airplane collecting. I built model airplanes first, of course, but starships were easy to purchase.

I've got almost all of the old Star Wars Action Fleet, including the E-Wing and the TIE Defender. That started it all. I picked up the cool JL ships and have a lot of the Hallmark ornaments too. I have a diecast Y-Wing from 1977 that drops a little bomb (my oldest piece), and the first wave of Star Wars diecast that Galoob did before they were purchased by Hasbro.

I totally dig the new Star Wars and Battlestar Galactica stuff.

I have a serious collecting problem.

The Hasbro SW 'Action Fleet' E-Wing and TIE Defender are quite nice and were hard to get and very sought after in my neck of the woods at the time. I love the Action Fleet series so much.
