DJ Mauls Ultimate Star Wars Toy Room Tour Part 57
Welcome back teen gang, to DJ Mauls ever popular (or so Id like to imagine) long running series of toy room tour blogs!

When last I left you, we had gone through my giant Super Huge Score from my local comics & collectibles store...in fact, chapter 17 and chapter 20 also covered items scored from this particular store...but going through things I realized there was still MORE stuff I have yet to cover from yet another trip I'd made there several weeks ago.

On that particular run I again grabbed items of various ages....some classic vintage, some newer.

Some classic vintage items include:

These really nice Hard Cover Star Wars Story Books...

...this vintage Story Of Star Wars Record Album with the book and record inside still intact...

...some classic ROTJ Laminated Book Covers that are still unopened...

...an oddball assortment of vintage trading cards ...

...and last but not least, a vintage little Landspeeder dated 1978 and has a General Mills copyright on it; I am thinking it was some type of cereal mail away offer but am not entirely sure on that...as usual I have yet to do my homework on it LOL.

Some of the more recent items from that score include these two AWESOME Darth Maul Watches ...this one with a Pewter head and beautifully designed wrist band and this one featuring a very cool Lightsaber Display Case.

Another fun Maul item I found was this wicked cool Darth Maul Coffee Travel Mug! ...I'm tempted to actually USE this one LOL.

I also found this Darth Maul poster there that was pretty wrinkled up but for 50 cents I figured it was worth sticking on my toy room ceiling.

Last item from this shopping spree is this cute little R2-D2 Playset from Galoob, which opens up to reveal Jabba's palace & the Rancor Pit!

One last item to round off this tour; another great score this time from eBay:

This beautiful Millennium Falcon Collectors Plate from the 1994 Hamilton Collection.

It was a wonderful addition to my Millennium Falcon shelf and I got it for a very reasonable price.

I still have TONS to cover; the next chapter will go back to featuring newer items I've purchased etc. and I'm hoping to bring the video segments back again soon; there have been a LOT of changes to the Toy Room in recent weeks and I'm about due for a new video overview.

Till next time my fellow geeks!


(PS: Has anyone else noticed the total lack of Picture updates for us to choose from? The pickings are getting slim... :( )

Lucky Ducky, Maul.

I used to have that watch, but I think my brother destroyed it :P

Anyways nice stuff, and I really like the Artoo playset.

heehee...I love your toy room tours. I think I just drooled on my puter. :^O

I think I've said this before, but I'll say it again...How the hell do you keep that room clean and dust free from allergens? I'm thinking you hire a maid to clean it for you. :^O

Great stuff, Deej. :D

I LOVE that mug on that mug! ]:) LOL I've become such the Maul fan this year. ;) But who could blame me? Maul kicks ars! B-) Heck, use the mug Deej! It's not like it's gonna get coffee stains like your ceramic one. :)

And that Falcon plate... whew. What a beauty!

I'm thinking you hire a maid to clean it for you.

Meesa do it! And I come with great references too! :^O
