Hardest item to find in this pic

[PulsarP]

Ok guys not so much a quiz but a question of your point of view on which would be the hardest item to find in this pic?

I don't have any wow factor pieces like a double telescoping Ben or Darth or some of the lovely 3 packs I see out there, but this piece in question I have only seen once in the last twenty years.

The correct answer may surprise you.

I bet there are loads of you with said item now :lol:

...why do my pics keep rotating when I attach them? :evil:

Some beauties in there. I cant remember the last time I saw a Clipper 12" Luke, also the Small wings DV Tie is super tough. ESB X-Wing is probably my favourite though!

Great photo!

 

[Richard_H]

Is that a small wing DV Tie?

 

[PulsarP]

Thanks for turning me around Andy :wink:
Oh and you're barred from this 'contest, you've had one go already :mrgreen:

Thanks guys, yes it is a small wings DV tie and that's not the item in question.
I know at least one other collector who has one of those and he's a member on here and not too far from me.
Maybe it's the same one and we both have 'the elves and the Star Wars collector' :?

Keep trying

Thanks Max
He isn't sealed so I took his tunic off as it had a little dirt and put it on a whites super hot wash, looks mint but just haven't got round to dressing him

He said he prefers the Putin look

No, there's a rarer item in that pic.
Probably a little underwhelming for you guys though :wink:

Star Destroyer bath set?

They are an absolute swine to find in good order. The liquid has a habit of leaking and the packaging is nearly always totalled.

Having said that, I did see one for sale at FF last year (I think) and it was in mint condition.

 

[PulsarP]

You've nailed it Mark :wink:

Wow you saw one in mint condition!!!!
I'm gonna have to go to one of these FFs

Do I win a prize? A nice Trebor ESB display box seems fitting

Pretty sure it was at FF, it was top dollar but also the best condition one I've ever seen. Might have been Dave Tree's table. He had some amazing stuff.

You should go to one Paul, make sure you make the Saturday night before too as that's as good as the show during the day. Few beers and a curry with some top fellas.

 

[PulsarP]

I will definitely make one but checked the date of the one in May and it clashes with the last game of the season.
I'd go to one just for the curry

I remember buying some boxed candy heads from Mr Tree about 10years ago.
Wasn't he into the bend ems?

Btw your prize will be another pint Sir :wink:

It was at FF, Dave Tree was brokering a series of items from the same guy I believe. I picked up my minty Palitoy Han Solo Blaster and Helix Death Star sharpener from that lot.

I would have guessed Clipper luke too - I cant even see the Star Destroyer bath set its that rare :lol:

Presumably its the box on the top shelf

think I have seen about 5 or 6 in recent years like mark said the liquid gets to them first.
but you do see the odd one normally listed wrong great set up by the way.

That's really surprised me as I haven't seen any.
When I was fully into collecting the 12" in the 90s/early 00s I passed on 4 or 5 Luke Clippers as the boxes weren't great.
Never saw the bath sets but like you say they could have either been wrongly listed or I just didn't notice them
