Great video. Because of you, now I think I'm going to start my loose collection sooner than I wanted. Also I do like the idea of buying 2 or 3 of each and getting them graded etc.

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

That’s awesome Chris!! How many figures do you need to collect to complete your journey?? Join the Padawan academy on Facebook to share your progress! Thanks for watching my friend

[@starwarsguy1226]

this is my new account for my Star Wars social media. This is my first video I uploaded to just give an idea of what I'm trying to collect and finish up before I really dive into the original vintage loose and carded figures. kzbin.info_WOaqaXV-PU?feature=share

0:44 this always bothered me, you can look trough both eyes ;-) keep m coming, good work!

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

HAHAHA I never picked up on that!!! Maybe you should do a "Did you know" vid on that, lol. Thanks for watching Sytho! Good to "see" you again.

[@CollectingStarWars]

Another Home Run!! Your video Journey just keeps getting better. You scored a Great Looking Chewy for a really fair price. Also, I think what I enjoy the most out of your videos, is the fact that you collect different than I do. It wouldn’t be as interesting if you did things the same way as me. For that reason, I can’t get enough. Keep them coming Joey, you’re a Rockstar! 🤘🤩🤘

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

How do you collect? I'd like to know and maybe I'll pick up a tip from you!?!?!? Thanks! And always good to see your comment CSW!

[@CollectingStarWars]

@@thepadawancollectorofficial My best tips for collecting are Be Persistent, Be Patient, and Participate in the Community. You already apply these tips like a Jedi Knight! Moreover, your organization and goal setting are Jedi Master level. I practice a far looser and more spontaneous style. There could be a balance between our styles that I'll discover through your video journey. Until then, its always fun to learn.

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

@@CollectingStarWars yes I think that I could do more wild finds and hunts like that. I know what you mean now! Spontaneous buys a surprise finds would be awesome!

[@garwingcheung9617]

You can't beat a good organised stratagem, everything in its place and ready to hand. You must be a Virgo? Great pick-ups of R2 and Chewie, that Kenny Baker custom was superb! Lovin your dog pics, more please 😀

[@MoparMcNeer]

Another fantastic video! I wish I would have been this detailed and organized for my collection when I was getting back into it in the late '90s. So many things I wish I knew about the things that purchased so long ago. I love to see how you're doing it, hopefully others will take note and do the same.

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

Thanks Morpar! I am going a tutorial video on episode 26 showing how to make my spreadsheet using free software. It’ll be like hanging out with me talking toys and organizing our collections together haha. Hope to see you there!

[@jer-bet-9781]

Great video!

Thanks Jer! I'm honored that you are here to enjoy them :). Thanks for watching! MYFBWY!

[@jer-bet-9781]

Did you get a comment from me about Paploo and Lumat?

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

@@jer-bet-9781 no but now I did! Are those the ones you are voting for??? If so chalk up a vote for PAPLOO or LUMAT!

[@Smw97]

Last 17 mperial gunner looks stunning so i would go for that

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

I think that is THE best looking figure in all of the Kenner line. You got it, chalk up a vote for the IMP GUNNER! Thanks Retro, and thanks for watching! MTFBWY

[@fivefoottrading8331]

All caught up and your collection is looking great! Looking forward to seeing where it goes from here.

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

You are awesome Five Foot!!!!! Thanks for bindging the vids! Its getting more and more interesting and I wish that some figures didnt come with so much drama, but hey it makes for good episodes, lol. But I'm having a TON of fun and learning a lot along the way. The best thing was discovering this amazing community of collectors, so THANK YOU for being a part of that awesome community that I've discovered. Thats what makes these episodes fun for me. Thanks for watching and MTFBWYA!

[@bheldam]

Hi Padawan thank You for sending the spredsheet... I Thing you shoud get Lando Calrissia general from the last 17.

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

That’s a sharp looking figure! I wouldn’t mind getting that one! Ok chalk up a vote for GENERAL LANDO! Thanks Brian, and thanks for being a part of the journey :). MTFBWY

[@geekstrong1]

Great video.. Imperial Dignitary is my vote for the next figgy 💪😛

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

Chalk up a vote for the IMP DIGNITARY!!!! Thanks Deano! Everyone, go check out the Geek Strong KZbin channel!

Cool vintage looking t shirt man. I have my vintage Chewie and R2 from the 70s. Lost that bowcaster though - bummer.

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

Yea I lost my OG bowcaster a loooong time ago too! All the original accessories I lost except for the ones I rebought in college. Thanks for watching my friend!!!

Great video mate! Such a great video series

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

Thanks SOC! Always cool to read your comments! MTFBWYA!

[@deathmetalrob5563]

Yes I'm enjoying this and I'm so glad I started my loose Kenner run in 2018 before the prices got too crazy but I still got a ways to go. I might wait until the prices go down. Always check to see if it's Repro and also check their feedback. If their feedback is 99.3% or higher these sellers do not want to screw up their feedback so they're going to be more reputable. I have like eight mint on card couple years ago and they've already doubled and almost tripled. Get a general Lando if you can for your next one or a big head Han or a little head Han. Well whatever you get either way I enjoy watching this series. He has some very jealous about that 9v9.

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

We have a vote for GENERAL LANDO! Cool. I think thats a great looking figure. Thats a great tip about the checking on their feedback. Yea everytime I think about buying a MOC the price gets too steep for me and I really need to invest in my loose run. But I really would love to start getting into those sooner. I am on the hunt for one that pops up, I'll snag it! Thanks for watching DMR. You are an OG to this channel. MTFBWY

[@picnicfxr8528]

Hi Joey. Just wanted to say a big hello from the UK. I’m really enjoying your collection series and love the spreadsheet you have put together. Is there a way of getting a copy of it from you as I would like to do the same but my PowerPoint skills are not the best? Thanks Jon

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

Hi Jon! Thanks for following the Journey, and yes I can send you a blank PDF of the sheet. I’m also going to do a live stream that will show how to make your own sheet using Google Sheets. It’s a free web-based software. Look for dates on that after the 12th of October. Thanks Jon and MTFBWY

[@picnicfxr8528]

@@thepadawancollectorofficial Hi Joey. That is very kind of you, thanks. I will look forward to watching that. How do I get my details to you so you can send me the blank sheet? Thanks Jon

[@DerekHaqq]

Great video! I'm enjoying the journey along with you. I suggest Carbonite Han while it is still attainable

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

I LOVE THE WAY THAT FIGURE LOOKS! People make fun of the neck, but if you were frozen for over a year, you'd look like that too right??? haha. Thanks for watching Derek! MTFBWY

[@BlueHToys]

Han is too easy, I got mine for £65 last year. I say pop up R2 before he pops the £1000 Mark 😆

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

@@BlueHToys GOOD Idea. I just saw one for sale for 750!!!!!

[@BlueHToys]

@@thepadawancollectorofficial bargain 😆

[@DerekHaqq]

@@BlueHToys Great point! I'm lucky I have mine from my childhood collection, it is in really rough shape but hey it's mine so I'm happy with it

[@andyrozycki2584]

Hey joe. Just watched another old video. That's Great that you donate for the toys for tots!!! That's really nice of you! But damn those repros... that should not be allowed!! If your the individual that accepts that, than good for you. But I'm like you, Nooo repros in my collection!!! Thanks Joe!!!

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

Yea I try to keep my collection authentic :)

[@gerardcoyle4022]

Very nice R2 joey 👌 not easy finding a nice chrome dome and white sticker on the wee fella these days, my approach to the last 17 has no pattern or order, when i see a super mint example i buy a.s.a.p as minters don't sit long, great vid 👍🙂

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

Yea if I see a last 17 for a price below current market, NO DOUBT im gonna get it. But its always fun to have you guys tell me what figures you want me to get. AND if I see a better R2 for a great price, I'll snag that too for my grade run. Thanks for watching Deathstar and MTFBWY!

[@Bloodyhair]

i buy your list, pdf at 50c, how i can write on it or mark scare or modifie?

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

If you bought the PDF if you have Adobe Acrobat you can make marks on it or write on it. It depends on what your PDF software is. That’s why I offer PowerPoint or Apple Keynote sheets as well. PDF is very limited, and is often read-only.

[@bothanOO7]

Hey P.C. what about the GREEN limbs Chewy?? Similar to the Blue/Purple smock Uggy debate….is it a variant or not?? Plus you did reference the SASQUATCH 🤣 so….? Imperial Dignitary next for the final 17…easy to find near mint cause no kids played with them 😂

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

That’s another vote for Imp dignitary! Mark it down!! Haha the chewy variant would be another rabbit hole!! But I wouldn’t mind getting the chewy variant. Thanks for watching Bothan!

[@Drewbfree23]

Wow didn’t know you were gonna do all loose grades and moc that’s a heck of a journey how about Amanaman next 👍

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

Amanaman is a GREAT choice. OK a vote for AMANAMAN :) Yea its a BIG run and its 324 pieces in my collection eventually, but we will get these. Thanks for watching Andrew, always cool to see you in the comments, my friend.

[@xmadsen]

WHATs the price for grating ?

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

Hey xmadsen! Right now f you go onto Collector Archive Services its showing about 32.00 USD to send in figures to get graded. These are regular figures and not special figures like a play-set and boxed item and such. I would go on the website and do a search of what figures you are thinking about getting graded, and they will show pricing. Thanks for watching!

[@xmadsen]

You write that IT cost 32 dollar to get grating. Is that incl the akrylic case ?

[@thepadawancollectorofficial]

There are different additional costs for services that you can add. So the base cost is 32, but you can pay more for different services, such as an expedited service which I think starts at 100 USD, also there are cleaning services, certificate services, and a thicker UV case. So the 32 USD is the base cost. I would go and research the CAS website to explore those extra services.

Pull off the bandaid, get Imp Dig next and get him out of the way! NO nose rub! NO thigh gap!
