I have been collecting Star Wars Lego since the day that I went to Target in 1999 and I found the X-Wing 7191 set and the 7181 UCS Tie FIgter on the shelf. I promptly bought these two sets, took them home and built them. I was them very upset that I had ripped open the box and I went back to the store to pick up two more so I could build them with my son some day. He was not even born yet at the time. He was still just baking in the oven.
I never realized that this line would continue for 15+ years. However, I was hooked. I picked up everything star wars Lego related from that moment forward. One item that I was on the fence with was the Lego Star Wars Keychains. I picked them all up and I kept them in a box. Here is a link to see all of the different Lego Key Chains on eBay here.
But I never knew what to do with them. Should I take the tags off? Keep them on? Should I display them? Should I spend my collecting dollars on sets and minifigures instead? Or all of the above.
As I started collecting more and more minifigures, I came to the realization that I would keep getting the star wars minifigures, but that I would not bother with the duplicate super heroes minifigurres. But that is starting to change as I am starting to find minifigures that were only released as keychains that I would like to add to my collection. For example, I just found this TT Games Trophy Brick with a Rock Band minifigure.
The more and more that I think about it, I think that we may want to add the to the Lego Minifigure Price Guide. I am just not sure if they should make the top 100 list?
I found these other unique ones on eBay here as well that really caught my eye. I even picked up both of the Rockband figures.
