Welcome to my little slice of internet heaven. This site showcases some of the coolest Jawa and other collectibles from my personal collection (unless noted). Also, I have included links to some of my favorite websites, which feature other outstanding collections as well. Thank you for visiting MADBROWNZ and enjoy the "Jawa & Toy experience."

Non-Sonic Welded Kenner Jawas

Pictured are two non-sonic welded Kenner Jawas. The figures are similar to production figures with copyright information, but for some unknown reason escaped the "bonding" process or simply fell apart. I placed the figures legs on the right backwards, so the copyright information can be displayed. 

Here is a picture of the figures "taken apart" for display. While I would not consider these "pre-production" pieces, they provide a look at what figures look like, before they are sonic welded.

LA GUERRA DE LAS GALAXIAS Jawa Card


Pictured is a cool "LA GUERRA DE LAS GALAXIAS" Jawa Card.Similar to Topps cards, produced in the late-70's and 80's, these feature a quite familiar background of the Jawas carrying R2D2 to their "dreaded" Sandcrawler. Based on information from the seller, these were produced in Argentina and were supposed to be glued to various sticker books.
 

Here is a picture of the back of the card. Fortunately, this card escaped the gluing process and is in fairly good condition. I purchased this card at Celebration V. Thanks to my cool roomie, Trevor for this nice card.

Sample Red and Black MADBROWNZ Patches


Pictured are "sample" Red and Black patches. These were handed out during the most recent Celebration event. The samples differ from the production version with a more vibrant Red, Black and Brown color on the patch. These are the only "samples" that exist and were used in the production of the Red and Black Patch.

Celebration IV and Celebration Europe Jawa Medallions


Pictured are the Celebration IV and Celebration Europe Exclusive Jawa Medallions. These beautiful Medallions were given to attendees, during various Collecting Panels. They are made of pewter and pay homage to the Vintage Line.

 

Here is a picture of the back of the Medallions. The name of each sponsor (Chris Nichols and Henrik Rasmussen) are highlighted as well. These were very popular during each Celebration Event.


In addition to Medallions, stickers and posters (not pictured) were created to publicize the giveaway during each Collecting Panel

The Evolution of MADBROWNZ

From the start, I wanted a site different than others. While there are some outstanding websites on the internet that showcase some outstanding collections, I wanted something special.

Why the name "MADBROWNZ"? Well, the name is unique and it seems to describe the character perfectly. I have always imagined the Jawa as this crazy character, with a mean streak. Featured is original art by Bill Cable, that had been nice enough to put my imagination into art form.


I hope to update this site on a daily or weekly basis. Enjoy the site and let me know what you think.
