Just got back in with these two items amongst other's straight out of the Palitoy factory again and stored away in a loft for 30 year's. Both item's have suffered from 30 year's of season's but I don't care, love the romance of it all and has a slightly special meaning to me.
The X-wing is missing it's sticker sheet and accessory contents but hopefully they will get repatriated in the coming months.

A bit off topic I know but my namsake (Mark Donohue) was a famous American racing driver. When I found out I have an action figure I had to add him to the collection :)

Love the CCP, Grant. Nice clear bubble on him too.

Walkie, those almost look to normal to Uzays!

Here's another piece from Iain. Thanks mate, it's as good as I hoped it would be. I liberated it from it's AFA case this morning (PLEASE NOTE: My "Warning" thread in the Off-Topic section is worth viewing: http://www.starwarsforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=7&p=356676#p356676). Most satisfying when you look at the grade the "experts" at AFA gave it. Honestly, if this isn't an advert for avoiding grading then I don't know what is. Overall 75? Yellowed bubble?? Never seen a better one....

Oh, nice Biker Scout pistol Hothrebel.

Good stuff as always lads :)

Got a couple of additions recently. Mint carded Takara die cast Tie and a die cast Twin Pod. Shame the bubble is starting to yellow on the Twin Pod but the card is one of the best I've seen in ages.

Nice additions.

Where do you get these cases as i have two die cast Tie's that i really want cases for?
Thanks

He's not my focus, ESB is not my focus.
I don't even like this figure as a sculpt.
But somehow this happened...

:lol: Brilliant! Focus by stealth!

Those Palitoy 20 backs are gobsmacking :shock: Wow. So good.

Loving the Takara Die casts and those are super nice example.

Walrus Man on an ROTJ card; nice touch :)

I have never understood why anyone would buy a reseal. Well, perhaps not understand why they would buy one for lots and lots of money, at least. I never thought I would own one given I really didn't see the point. Then this chap turned up. It will probably be as close as I get to owning a 30 back MOC so I thought what the hell; he'll do until my numbers come up :) It's not a bad reseal although with better glue it could have been perfect! This is a 30B example.

"snag" a couple of Palitoy 20 backs! lol, an understatement if ever there was one.

Lovely die cast Takaras. Anything other than carded figures don't do anything for me, but they still look ace.

Well done on the Palitoy Bossk. Yeah part reseals are extremely hard to resist when they are a fraction of the cost.
