Hey, Count with me Joe... and glad to meet you all guys. :D JC :wink:

As posted on their FB page: Just can't believe this. Or just hard to believe they sold more than 50,000 tickets for one day... Capacity of the Exell center is at any one time for 68,750 visitors. As far as i now, in all Cons and Celebs tickets were available to the very last days, rarely weeks...

I totally agree with you; these are not merely copies as we can understand it today, made with your desktop printer or whatever laser-copier... These are "copies" as they used it in the 80's; Photographic prints issued from a negative film/slide. Vectis clearly described them as "photographic...

This is ridicoulous. These 3 supposed Chromalin type prints are in fact photographic prints taken from the Kenner 1980 catalogue... :cry: http://www.plaidstallions.com/kenner/80sw.html Almost every stuff in this auction was Kenner. The flyer, the small catalogue and the 12" Fett photograph is...

Yes, there's an entrance on Owen street through an administrative building, but the main intrance to access the factory is on Jackson street. You can see the gate at the end of the entrance road. Palitoy closed its factory in 1985 and its warehouse closed a year later. Remember that the site was...

This is the wrong location Jason.... :( The old Palitoy factory of Coalville is on Owen Street and it still exist today. It's a business park that houses a half dozen of small companies. The site is still known as "The Old Toy Factory"... JC :wink:

It was fairly common practice in Europe during the 90s. I remember from 1992, I used to borrow my father's old Ford Granada during the weekend to scout the lands where i lived before(Belgium and Luxembourg) in search of small toy shops. There was always something to bring home; if it was not...

Hi Lee, I really do appreciate your interest and it is with pleasure that I will answer your questions. But first, I want to emphasize that I have no interest in convincing anybody overhere. In my 47 years, I have little left to prove to myself, much less to justify to others. For me, the...

There were two main compagnies that supplied Palitoy with printed cardboards and packaging stuff; James Baldwin Cartons Ltd from Warley and Corrugated Products Ltd from Belper(Derby), but it was the last one that supplied for the Star Wars line (Destroy the Death Star game box, dispenser for...

I was in a hurry of fresh funds so i asked again Steve Tomlinson to deal them to someone else. i never knew to who he sold the figures, apart the Vader that i sold to Markus.

Hi Andy, In octobre/november 2010, i was offerd 9 Palitoy 45bk carded figures; Vader, Jawa, Death Squad Commander, Death Star Droid, Tuskan, Chewie, R5D4 ,CCP and IG88. I purchase them all. Steve Tomlinson played as intermediary and I never knew who was selling them. Now, looking at the...

Hi Jason, It looks pretty much the same at first sight, but the Toni picture you provided is to small to tell... The seal on Liam's R5 follows the same pattern all arround the edges. The bubble side in contact with the cardboard is not fully sealed to the very edge ends as it happens with...

Hi Liam, If we look closely at the full size picture, we can easily see that the seal looks genuine Now, the R5 was well on Toni's lists , but this does not necessarily mean that it has been forged. Toni also aquired genuine blisters. It's a false thought to think that everything sold by...

Hi, This 12 back box set was displayed at a 2012-13 french Star Wars toy expo in Paris. The box makes part of Arnaud Grunberg collection. More info here : http://licensingpromo.wordpress.com/tag/cite-des-sciences/ JC :D

HI, Lobot's bubble look too bluish to my taste... I know it's a 45 back card and this cardback don't appears on the list but the bubble looks pretty much the replica PE(bluish polythene) bubble Toni used on C-3PO RL. These original vintage style bubble were pretty fragile and could be dented...

Hi Vince, you got that PM... Hi Vince, I just saw your comment about the resealed cards on my thread. I sincerely believe that was a fair move from you to warn people that 2 carded figures i sold to John Ragusa(aka DarthBerizing) turned up to be resealed cards. We were both surprised when...
