Latest Acquisitions

New Toy Joy!!!

Picked this up over the weekend. Never built one, never had one, but always loved the art on box as a kid and something that hasn't been used on other products since:



love pre-brand guideline stuff, slightly not right, but ohhhh sooooo frikkin good



and those pilots? Everything is so set in it's way these days that to see this sort of thing is awesome!!!

Nice pickups guys, love the logo Bram!
Always wanted some of those airfix models as a kid, love
artwork on that one David!

Here's my latest, something else while I wait for that elusive
Rotj stormie...
The bubble isn't that bad, the flash makes it worse though:

Some great pick ups guys. Loving the card back, TFP and Airfix model

lol, I remember having that model kit as a kid. Only being disappointed it was so damn small (and no substitute for the real deal Kenner toy at all!)
thanks for sharing that picture, brings back good memories

Another one for the focus, ESB Palitoy 45B

I thought European too, bought from the States oddly enough so done some miles!

It's definitely not French, figures sold in France usually have price stickers showing prices anywhere from 15 -25 Francs. I'd say it's probably German, they used to price their figures from 4-9 Deutsche marks. Cool card.

Another slice of heaven! Love this one...

MOCK-UP ART ON BOARD - POTF LOGO ALTERNATE CONCEPT



Enjoy!

Bram it amazes me that these things have survived! Nice piece 8)

looks a bit 'the force awakens'

Well these are 1985, but I guess we are kicking in for 30 years now. This one is a little larger than the other two similar ones.

There are a lot more of these out there, I know the whereabouts if at least another four which I would like in time to add. There are some seriously cool ones out there too and a lot more hand drawn concepts which may have been for other lines after the POTF line but nothing is concrete.

They really are stunning, the latest one is actually not too dissimilar to the final version with the type of letting and the fact it says "the power if the force" on it as opposed to my other ones which have "the force forever".

Also the latest one seems to have been within Kenner rather than out sourced to LPK, but don't quote me. When I get a bit if time I will be researching these in detail, there are a few more people I need to contact for info.

As ever, if anyone knows where any others are please contact me! Also, keep an eye out on my limelight soon for an update!

Only just realised, it does indeed.

Can't believe that this thread is nearly 1600 pages long - it's catching up with the Karen one !

Some amazing pieces - been listening to a few of the Podcasts over the last couple of days and it is great how they go through this thread - my aim now is to have something read out :lol:

Great POTF piece. A nice slice of Star Wars history.

Okay Chubb, I can say Ed AKA Snake Eyes 82 is definately a trustworthy seller. Paid for this yesterday afternoon and it arrived this morning.

Beatuiful figure, fantastic seller.

Nice one Jango! Does this complete the run of the basic 4 or you're first one?

My first, looks super good next to my standard Fett.

Nice Boba, Dan 8)

Picked up a few items recently. Got some decent ROTJ MOCs- Palitoy Weequay & Klaatu and a Kenner Lando Skiff.

Also got hold of a few Action Force items. Know they're not SW, so apologies, but I'm so chuffed with the Headquarters, I simply had to share! It is, afterall very closely related to the original Palitoy Death Star. It has one bit of tape and some play wear, but it's pretty good overall and I'm pretty sure it's complete 8)

Also bought my first AF MOC. Can't believe how cheap MOC Mutons are- it's a no brainer!

Fantastic pick ups of late guys. Love the artwork Bram, The R5 cardbacks are fantastic as is the airfix kit, yes the artwork on that is awesome. Great MOCs Cazzavr, they look sweet next to that HQ.
