A useful Star Wars Figure Archive

I just found this neat web page that has reviews and photos of the Star Wars action figures in a variety of useful categories and thematic lists. Foir example, you can search for "Tusken raider" and it'll offer you a list of all the known figure releases, pictures, a review of each fgure, accessory counts, articulation counts, release year, date stamp and more!

There's even a very cool comparison tool so you can look a figures side by side!

No market prices though, but more than enough info to help you decide which figures to add to your collection. In fact, this is how I'm currently planning my purchase of secondary market figures. Really neat!

Check out Jedi Business here. Their beginners page is here.

Doctor Finklestein lives in a large observatory with his living rag doll creation Sally and his hunchbacked assistant Igor. James Whale's Frankenstein is quoted in Finklestein's line "I made you with my own hands" which is ironic as Finklestein's body appears to be largely if not entirely artificial. Unlike Frankenstein who takes no responsibility for his creations and disowns them almost as soon as they are completed (much like the original Dr. Frankenstein), Finklestein takes full responsibility over Sally and acts as an over-protective father and in some ways an overbearing husband (thus explaining Sally's attempts to run away) by keeping her under lock and key under the pretext of shelterin...

Migrating to Facebook

After a tragedy in the family and a slow return to my hobbies, I've realized that I've been posting more on Facebook. It's easier, faster and the audience response is faster. So, posting here might be spasmodic at best for the time being. Bear with me as I decide what to do with my blogs, thanks!
