Lovin the Tomarts 8) True the price guide is well out of date but the beauty of that is seeing what kind of prices were paid for pieces over 20 years ago so bit of nice history right there :idea: Also that book covered such a wide area of SW Collectables! That was my bible back in the 90s :)

I don't normally put many buys up on here. But these are a few over the last while which i have been lucky to get. These are the figures I hope to use to build up my dream of having a full complete collection of mint figures.
I hope no one spots anything suspect and says I have something repro! Or it will end up going for a quick vacation to the bin :mrgreen:
I know these figures aren't rare like some of the bits you guys have. But they are figures I always wanted and are just within my budget.

That's very special Bruce - nice!

Loads of lovely trilogos too, nice buys everyone!

Here's my latest - a bit tatty but I'd never found a picture of one of these before it turned up on eBay UK. Kenner Canada Cloud Car

Not surprising that I've never seen this one either if Andy hasn't....

Great piece dude. Love when something like this pops up

Cheers Ross, Bill Kennedy has just posted his complete Canadian run on FB - quite a sight! The Canadian die cast is pretty rare but very cheap considering.

Jesus people, will you please stop raising the bar?? Non-stop goodies all over! Jez, the cap lid is cool. Great to see Tarkin on something vintage! As for Luke, he looks like he needs to put on some weight. He so ugly I wouldn't let my dog date him. I haven't actually got a dog.

Look at those cool cups! I want! And that Cool Canadian diecast and a nice 12" Boba. And Bruce, don't get me started on that Leia. When I go to the cape I was actually rolling my eyes and then I fell off my chair. How fecking cool, mate. Just bloody brilliantly awesome!

Damn you Shakey! You just caused me to go hunting for the Sansweet book. I used mine as a bible (and let's all remember just how accurate that work of fiction was) in the 90s and I so need a copy again! Best on eBay is 20 notes so I'll sit tight and hope to pick one up at FF.

Great stuff all round fellas :) My humble offering is as follows. The box and contents on the left were from a car boot last weekend (a dealer there so not a true find!) but that caused me to go and find a better, complete one, which I found on ebay for what I think was a bargain price. And now I have a 3rd on it's way because the box looked stupid minty and it came with some erasers to get nearer a second complete box. 0 to 3 in a week. I'm beyond help. Anyway, will move the spare bits on and keep the best. I love this box and the erasers are too cool for school:

They're odd items for sure ROTJ LP erasers! I don't think I've seen a box of them , picture or otherwise, since the eighties.

Are kids as into erasers as we were? I doubt it, :)

Stoked to add this Lili Ledy Overstock Leia Boushh to my Jabba's Palace collection!
I love overstock pieces, those are different and special to me. Of course they have nothing to do with the pre-production process. However, they are not actual production pieces either in that they were only "partially" produced figures, unassembled, non sonic-welded and sometimes unpainted (the unpainted ovestock pieces are the most fun to collect). Let's call them unfinished production pieces!
One of my collecting goals is to put together a full set of overstock Palace characters, which is obviously not an easy task (I'm not even half way to it), yet a fun and exciting one :)

The only other publication I flicked through anywhere as much as that Tomarts guide in the 90s was Razzle.

Don't worry Gary I've got both figures on their correct cards, we can do a 2 for 1 trade :)

Seriously though amazing piece, and that's one of the best condition miscard bubbles I've seen!
