Re: Sci-Fi diecast? Anyone?

here's a link to Hasbro's site for this series of vehicles:

http://www.hasbro.com/titaniumseries/

(I'm not sure if its totally up to date.)

Some of my favorites from this series (but, honestly - they all are pretty cool):

Battlestar Galactica - Both Vipers; Cylon Raider; Raptor.
Star Wars - Tie Interceptor; AT-AT Walker; Milenium Falcon; A-Wing; B-Wing; Imperial schuttle.

It may be stretch - but maybe we could add an area in Related Subjects for SCI-FI Diecast? Or does anyone know of any forums that are specifically focused on this area?

Yes - I got sucked into those too - about a year ago at Toys R Us. Picked up an Enterprise, Klingon Battlecruiser, and a Bird of Prey. I still have them on the card - not sure where to display them.

Also - I saw some of these a couple months ago at Kaybee Toys - they were clearancing them out - "buy 2 get one free" or some other type of deal. May still be able to find some there.

Okay folks, set your inertial dampeners to high and get ready to buy what few on this forum have bought before ...

I've just noticed that the Corgi Star Trek range has just warped into The Flying Mule and they're looking pretty cool .

Re: Sci-Fi diecast? Anyone?

A while back I bought a corgi doctor who dalek and cyberman.
I saw the star wars ships, but I am proud to say I resisted.
I already have one curio full of planes, I cant start a space ship collection also! must resist.
Ships are fun...
I'd like a small tardis.
and a space 1999 eagle.
These tend to be expensive though.
...
One addiction is enough.

must resist...must resist...must resist..

Resistance is futile Fileasfog, YOU will be assimilated ... (to paraphrase the Borg)

Seriously, have you no concern for the evolution of flight - from WW I biplanes through to Starships ... .

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.
