Howdy !
My lovely lady and I had finally moved into our new house in December 2003. After living in a tiny flat I finally got a *whole room* to myself for my computers and consoles.....
I know I'm lucky to have a whole room to myself, what type of space does everyone else have ? Is there any/alot of SW stuff around... it'd be interesting to see.... :)

lol, I have the Star Wars ones, but those are ones I've been drinking ^_^
I go through like 5 cans a day. Already had 2 today, and I've been awake for 2 hours. :p
My pepsi cans are boxed away too though. :( I'll put them out once I get my own room just for Star Wars. ^_^
BTW - I have 11 pepsi cans on my desk. :D

lol, I have regular teeth, See? :D
Sigh I wish I had digital camera! :(
Good on ya Astro, Z, and Crow!
Nice all around, but sorry to say my digital camera has gone the way of Old Yeller :o. I don't think you'd wanna see my computer anyways (2000 Hp Pavilion)...the only thing that is cool is the room it's in :( oh and my leathercomputer chair :D
Just reread the thread, it says gaming area too....
I have a Playstation, N64, and a Gamecube. My TV isn't intertesing, just a big bunky piece of crap. So, i won't bother taking a picture. ^_^
My camera won't upload my pics onto mah computer, so I dont get to show you guys....My gaming is split into two areas, my computer and my Xbox....although there isn't much of a split, it's a dorm, not known for it's size.
As soon as my dad get's home, I'll ask him if I can use his digital camera.

Hey remeber he won the lottery right? Thats how he got all those stuff :D

Crow, the lotto money mostly went to pay bills, but I did get the GC, VERY CHEAP(less than half its retail price, and it came with a memcard !)
*I never get anything at full price, that's for chumps, I am the greatest bargain hunter I have ever met, I am the boba fett of bargain hunters :p ...
*I got the ps2 only a few months after they were released at less than half its retail price, this involved a trad-in of my old PSone...
*The family desktop was jointly paid off by myself and my gf, that was obtained about 30% less than retail as her employer has special deal with IBM.... that was a few years ago now, as a P3800 was high end back then :p
*The maul figurine looks great but is actually $5 bubblebath !
*The jedi starfighter and obi wan inside it I got at toy clearance sale - total $20 (1/3 of retail price) !
*Mara Jade I got for $6 at safeway....yes a rare EU figurine at safeway.....believe it....or not ...I even have Thrawn(still at my parents house :( )
*yes Egg Destroyer the Toshiba 5200 is great, I use it to death, but I don't actually own it, its on a business lease. I have the option of buying it out next year, but Id rather upgrade(I need 256 mb grafix man !) and keep paying a lease, which is tax deductible anyways..... :p
*Darth Rythe, despite getting all of that cheaply, I do consider myself very very lucky...remember though, I am 28 and work full time as a health professional, when you're my ripe old age you'll have some cool stuff too, I'm sure :) if you're ever in melbourne, come down and have a crack at Rebel Strike multiplayer if you're game :p
I'm really enjoying seeing other people's 'spaces' ... those pepsi cans are still freakin me out !

Actually, the retail price for Obi and Strafighter is about 40 bucks. ;)

I was quite lucky -
that was bought at a clearance sale not too long after epII had been released(jun/july 2002).... the retail price here in Oztralia back then
jedi starfighter - $ 49.95
obi wan $ 15.00
I was quite chuffed, to get it at the price I did...but hey this isnt the bargain hunters thread !
MTFBWYA
Wow..... Obi was 15 there? The regular price for most Star Wars figures in stores around here is about 5-6 dollars. That is a real good deal then, since you basically got the Obi free and the Starfighter for half the price. ;)

yep, thats all due to the value of the our dollar being less here in Oz(ie. compared to your stronger US dollar)... why do you think alot more movies(including eps 1-3), the matrix films are shot in australia.........its CHEAPER !

i saw the jedi starfighter the other day for Ј6 ($11) they had stacks so i'm guessing they were trying to get rid of them.
also while we're on the subject... look at this website
here (
http://actionfiguresbygofigure.com/product1209.html) its trying to sell the darth vader unleashed figure for $99 :eyeraise: i got mine for Ј7 ($13)
you have a running machine and a fridge freezer by your computer? wow, you never have to leave that room do you :D
Yes, why do you have extremely small chairs, or a really BIG computer table? :D
@SIV, that's not a frige, it's a cabnet, and yes, that is a [treadmill]
@ZBomber, sorry about the scaling problem, the table in twice it's original hight so you could see underneath.

You haven't heard? He's an evil midget that is bent on taking over LF...ok I was bluffing...It's really Rhett :)
Hey IG, do you even use that tredmil? I think I even see dust in your drawing ;)
Apologies for the crap webcam :p ...

That's the view from where I sit. As you can see, I've got my comp set up so I can watch telly at the same time ( ;) ) and I've got a wall of videos to hand too (DVD's out of shot unfortunately), with CD's behind the monitor and just left of the telly.
The eagle-eyed amongst you will notice that the top two shelves of those two bookcases houses my SW VHS collection - 89 tapes so far and counting :xp: I've got loads of vids stashed upstairs just so I can admire 'the collection' when I want.
You'll also notice a beer within my reach too. There's usually one there ;)
