That's a really cracking Luke Jedi Palitoy! Congrats!

Had this arrive yesterday thanks to a SWFUKER. I can't say thank you enough as it has been something on my mailer hit list for a couple years now.

Thats a cool piece Shawn. It used to belong to me I believe before I sold it to Ed a few years back. Well done on adding it to your mailer run! 8)

did you get your moc's at a good price?

yes they were definitely under market rate I think. at auction they sometimes go for way more, but if you take a punt you can pick up bargains for sure.

this is the other MOC I got:

Thanks Chris. Sounds like this has bounced around through a few collections then since I didn't get it from Ed. :lol: Did you by chance get it from Villains on ebay? That was the last one I saw for sale a couple years ago and was wondering if it might be that one.

Quite possibly buddy. I bought it about 4 or 5 years ago I think. I owned it for a year or so and then sold it to Ed. I think Ed passed this to Bram recently. Any chance you got it from him? :?:

Of course this could be a completely different example in which case.... :lol:

Anyways, its a cool piece and I have not seen another apart from the one I bought so I like it. Im sure it'll look great in your run dude. 8)

P.S. Those poor kids having to wait another 4-6 weeks for their Fett after the initial delay!! :lol:

Yeah, that was who I got it from. :)

Here's the old auction pic I saved from the one I'm thinking of. Unfortunately I don't have the front side with the name. I was thinking it was about 2 years ago now, but must admit it seems like the years are flying by faster these days, so maybe it was 4. :lol:

Definitely feel sorry for the kids who got one of these in the mail.

I'd say they are different slips.

Note that several letters on your slip are missing the bottom section of the letter.

Ie "D" in Dear and "E" in MAPLE on the bottom line.

Got this from Lee G after his original bidder on eBay backed out.

An upgrade figure, my C-3PO was missing the footer so I got this one (I then sold mine for more money - eBay madness!)

I almost mentioned those two C3PO's as they didn't look to be that much worse than the two before them that sold at 200 and just over 100. It seems that the price of these reseals fluctuates all the time. One other thing was I thought the one you sold had a footer, was it not original?

Nice pieces though and I remember someone on here showing a step by step way to sort that Yoda footer out without causing any damage.

Some great acqusitions guys.I love the Fett note, its that sort of thing that screams history.

I know Grant will like this:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111318903871?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

Got them today.Over 100 comics and most have the free gifts attached/or inside:)

That's crazy Lee, its going to cost you a hell of a lot more to bag them with boards than the actual comics. If you have some of the gifts, you could sell 1 comic and probably make 3 times your money back.

I know Grant. Just looked through them all with my lad Sonny, and ive found 4 with transfers/Kelloggs flicker card, The free space map issue with map, The comic with the free 'C.Y.R.I.L' brochure and a few others.Some have some vintage stamp set applications :D But I also found two issues containing posters of other toys/games.One issue had a pole position ATARI poster and the other issue had a MOTU poster!!! jees-i am stunned with this.I was expecting some beat up comics, but this has well and truly got to be one of my best buys in a while. There are even some poster monthlys (both ROTJ and ESB) the ROTJ Zoids issue and I believe there are a few ESB Monthlys :D

BTW Grant,where is the best place for boards/bags for vintage marvel SW etc?

Enjoy the pics.

I have no idea. Haven't investigated that enough. But need to.

Let me know if you find anything out.

I have a big stack of those comics, the issue in the top left of the ebay photo, I think has one of the best bits of artwork from the comics.
