Latest Acquisitions

Teaser alert!

Sorry guys, I don't have much time right now, so I will just tease you a little today. :lol:
Told you something was coming.



Received a HUUUGE parcel today from Mark! (Thanks, Mark!)

I added the AT-ST Driver as a size reference. :lol:

The contents of that parcel were: 2 other parcels!


and


The contents of these 2 are items which have been bought a while ago or were put on hold and the like.

If I had more time right now I'd take detailled pics of everything, but unfortunately I have to leave soon. But I hope to get the pics ready by the weekend. :twisted:

Hi jackabina, I love that Y-Wing. I remember my first Y-Wing my big brother gave me in the late 80s, I was so happy

Hi Jeff, that Yak face is awesome. Does UKG look after repro weapons when they grade ?

Thanks for the comments, delighted with him alright....Wouldn't think UKG do repro weapons, but saying that cant see for definite on their website :?:

Hello chaps. Been a bit quiet of late but i've just had a load of new purchases that I sent straight to steve at UKG arrive so here goes. Really pleased with the service he provided and the grades are pretty good too!





Still a few more but dont know how to upload more than 3.

Very Nice Lee! Lov that Meccano! 8)

Hi maniac79, I can't wait

I Jeff, I have been told that AFA do not check for Repro Weapons, but I do not know if that is true. But I was just wondering if UKG do the same as AFA ?

Hi Lee, holy moses. those moc is awesome, congratulations mate 8)

Cheers Liam. Thats the one that the bubble started to come away on one corner! They also made a hash of factory sealing it - the backing blister is all over the shop! :lol:

Delicious Boushh there, Lee. Like her.

What's in the boxes ? What's in the boxes ? What's in the boxes? maniac79 ?

Lee , some super duper minty moc's there ummmm ummmm ummmmm !

Lee mate - those are some awesome looking cards - must be a new limelight on the way

Jeff - like the coffin - to be fair UKG seem to be doing a good job, and while grading is not for all of us I can see the point in getting some of the nice loose figures preserved

Dennis - man I can not wait for the unveiling - although I do know some of the box's contents :wink: - the box I sent off was nowhere near as big as that !!

Lastly, I picked up this Palitoy Fett Mailer about 6 weeks ago and sent it to UKG to get graded. Steve went well out of his way and spoke to several people, and managed to trace its history and confirm it as legit.
I think he did a great job of casing it too!





Excuse my photography skills and thanks for the comments guys.
I'm really happy with everything!

Love that Luke Gunner too Lee Nice acquistions

:shock: Nice job on the Palitoy Fett mailer! Does it also have an address label on the other side too?

Thanks Shawn and Pomse. There's no address on the other side. UKG traced it back from the person I got it from, all the way back to the Palitoy rep that had it originally, hence it taking 6 weeks to get back.

Lee that mailer rocks big time .

Shawn , Nice to see you here as well now there arre only one or two i miss from tig here .

Some stunning stuff as usual guys 8)

Glad you got a great grade on that Yak Jeff & bet your chuffed with it being your first graded item, he looks very minty.

Lee - that ESB Han is out of sight buddy, sheer heart attack 90 :shock: superb

Lee77 - loving that mailer, now your talking my language :mrgreen:

I wondered about this as well Lars, so asked Steve & in his words -

(Quote from Steve) -" We do not & will not grade a figure with a repro weapon & or other accessory or without the correct weapon, we would contact the owner & ask them to forward a correct weapon or return the item ungraded, we keep up to date with reproduction weapons including the newer ones that are hitting the market as best we can & always test them before any grade is given" (End Quote)

Which is good news

Hi Frunkstar, that is really good news. Then we should not be affraid to buy UKG graded items

Again some stunning purchases.

Steve's done a nice job grading your figures Lee. Some real minty pieces there. Love all the other figures especially the Y-Wing. My favourite vehicle I owned as a kid. Funny I don't even have one now. One to add to the ever-expanding list!

Thanks for all the comments lads...
Great news about repro weapons with UKG, had a feeling that would be the case alright.

Some more great pick ups, Lovin those MOC and Mail away Fett, Lee77......Nice 8)
