I got hold of a store display and other promotional stuff!

[Sweden]

Been a while since my last post... Wonder why? Anyway I’m back contributing a little.

I’ve basically bought most of my LEGO Star Wars stuff at a local toy store here in Sundsvall, Sweden and I’ve stayed in touch with the ever so kind Mrs. (She’s actually around my age and not an old hag I might add )in charge of the LEGO department at that toy store. Anyway, I think it was around the time of my last post that I made in June when I dropped by the toy store to check for items on sale when this Mrs. approached me and asked if I wanted a little something she had saved from some older store display and I said yeah sure I’ll take it.

And wow that was a good thing as it was a smaller Star Wars display!

What I got was a Star Wars hanger baseplate display with following items:

7111 (Two) Droid Fighter’s. One in flight on stand and the other one walking. Both complete.
7141 (One) Naboo Fighter in flight on stand. Long (tail) antenna missing.
7151 (One) Sith Infiltrator. Darth Maul mini figure missing.

Baseplate includes flashing LED’s. All models are glued together for obvious reasons.

It’s an ever so cool addition to my growing collection of LEGO Star Wars stuff and I’ll check and see if I maybe can take some decent pictures of it later on and send to Mr. JediTricks but I can’t make any promises as my camera is old and I can’t afford one at the moment.

I mean... I’ve just blown $2600.00 on my brand new SONY 36” widescreen TV... And then again there’s a whole lot of new stuff coming... Star Destroyer... Must... Have... 8)

I also got a large LEGO Star Wars poster (movie size) with Anakin (Hayden C.) and LEGO versions of Jango Fett’s Slave 1 chasing Obi-Wan’s Jedi Star Fighter as seen in the movie and it’s printed both on front and back on slightly thicker cardboard with other sets shown as well.

I also got a fabric “flag” as I in lack for better word in English can’t find the correct word for it and as I can’t find my dictionary and it’s in the same style as the poster but much larger and I’ll see if I hopefully can take some good pictures of them both as well but we’ll see later on.

Pretty cool huh guys and gals!?

PS) I got my “Ultimate Collector Series?” Naboo Fighter last night and built it.

Sounds pretty sweet, how's the UCS Naboo fighter?

I'm more interested in how to get my hands on one of the displays!

When will we see your review of the UCS Naboo fighter?

gsr-jedi:

Go read the review.

aceguide:

Well... How to get one? Well... I guess I was lucky... Don’t know how many that were made for the country of Sweden and/if they were made for any other countries. Displays are made from time to time for stores but I guess one’s just lucky if one gets hold of one.

ACPin:

You’ll see it right... Now!
