So, just a couple days past the "Unofficial Star Wars Day" I am making the first news post on my relaunched site. I have narrowed my focus from the general collecting site I was running to something much more focused. My site is now focused on Star Wars Action Fleet, Micro Machines and Titanium, with a small section dedicated to miscellaneous collectibles I enjoy. I will have a domain name shortly and I will also begin uploading pictures and information for my collection, so stay tuned!

For the first item added to my re-launched site, I chose a beautiful Action Fleet bootleg: Darth Vader's TIE Fighter. I found this item on eBay, and I just couldn't pass up the chance to own it. Because it's not a true Action Fleet item, I placed it under Miscellaneous >> Other Items because that seemed the best place for it.

Since my site is up again and my Domain name is in the works, I have uploaded all my wallpapers and Winamp skins. As a bit of a disclaimer, the original art on most everything there belongs to someone else, but I scanned the images and cropped them to fit several sizes of computer screens. It took a lot of time and work, but not nearly as much work as the original artists put into it. I will leave them there as long as possible but if I am requested to remove them by the original artists, I will do so.

With the help of Dusty Wilson from Megagram, I got my domain name associated with my website. Late last night MiniEmpire.ca went live, and so now we are open for business so to speak. So come on in, kick your shoes off, make yourselves comfortable and don't mind the man living under the stairs.

Action Fleet Update

So I've begun the data entry portion of my website now. Today I added several items around the site, but my major update was in the Action Fleet section. I have added most of the vehicle releases from 1996 and 1997 release years, but there are a total of seven items from those two years that I haven't uploaded yet. I am trying to have the most comprehensive information on these items, but I no longer have the boxes these items came packaged in so I am relying on the kindness of strangers in order to fill in the blanks. If you can provide any help, I would appreciate some contact. Thanks a lot.

So Far, So Good ...

Well I have finished uploading all my finished pictures of the Action Fleet. I still have to take pictures of my new Series Alpha Y-wing Starfighter and process the pictures of the 2 Classic Duels sets, but other than that, if I have it it's up.
I have a favor to ask anyone who is able. I started collecting Action Fleet before I thought of documenting it and putting it online. I also had limited space, so I threw away all the packaging that my Action Fleet came in. I have been helped considerably by some good people, but I still have several items I need box back information for. If anyone has access to a scanner and the box backs for the following, I would appreciate it. Just leave a comment and I will get in touch.
1996 Vehicles A-Wing Starfighter Boba Fett's Slave I Rebel Snowspeeder Shuttle Tydirium
1997 Vehicles Bespin Cloud Car Rancor
Battle PacksGalactic Empire (with Royal Guard) Aliens and Creatures (with Ponda Baba) Galactic Hunters (with IG-88) Dune Sea (No Barada) Droid Escape (No Gonk Droid) Desert Palace (No Weequay) Cantina Smugglers and Spies Hoth Attack Death Star Escape Endor Victory Imperial Troops Rebel Troops
Playsets The Death Star Ice Planet Hoth Yavin Rebel Base

Well, over the last couple days I have uploaded pictures and info for all the Titanium Series that I have ready. In addition to that, I now have the box back info for several more Action Fleet items. Blue2th from the SirStevesGuide.com forums provided me with box backs for the 1995 A-wing, Rebel Snowspeeder, Shuttle Tydirium, and Battle Packs 13 and 15. So those have now been uploaded. Next step is the Micro Machines.

... I have now uploaded all my completed Micro Machines pictures and info. I will keep uploading things periodically, but all I have left is the miscellaneous pages and more items to prep and upload. The site will grow bit by bit.
