Yep! It finally happened, I found someone selling a Flagg when I actually had the money to buy it! It's mostly complete, missing the hard pieces (Mast cap, Y pins, Fantail Railing and a Radar antenna) It's also missing the Elevator base. This is especially irksome since I had 3 of those things a year ago and traded them all off. But it does have pretty much all the paperwork (No sticker placement sheet)
Here's some pics: (You'll notice I had to pile some boxes because the table wasn't long enough) And here's a few custom figures that have been waiting for a Flagg for 2 years now: |

nice and white too.
I still honestly have never seen one in person. I'm sure it's something to be seen. I had always wanted a SW AT-AT as a kid, my parents said no, and a friend had one. Needless to say this really burned my little arse at the time. :( I did eventually get the AT-ST, but it just wasn't the same. Many moons later before Ep 1 came out when all the SW stuff was being re-released my now ex-wife was cool enough to understand my "habit" and actually brought me home a new one from Wally World one day. She's gone, but I still have my AT-AT. ......and no, my new wife does not get it and does not care either, but she was also cool enough to give me twin boys. I'll take both of them over any Flagg, AT-AT, Terror Dome, HQ or anything anytime. .

That's awesome, and looks to be in great shape. I noticed you have an awful lot of custom sailors manning that bad boy, sweet. I never get tired of Flagg pics. Congrats

You are my hero. I wish I could find a good one when I have the $ for it. I either find one and I'm broke, or I have the $ and they are being scalped.

Congrats on hauling in a Flagg. Probably the crown jewel of any collection, and a very awesome playset...
