I can't quite believe after all these years that I've finally got a trilogo Fett :D The "Fett tax" MOCs command usually bothers me as on most cardbacks he's really not that rare, but the trilogo Fett is genuinely one of the hardest trilogos to find and I've only seen a handful for sale over the last 10 years. He's not perfect, the bubble is cracked on two corners, but with pieces like this sometimes you can't be fussy. It was a real gamble buying him as he came from the USA and I wasn't sure the bubble would survive being posted. Super chuffed to have one at last.

Nice one mate - I thought the seller came down to a reasonable price in the end - was always a gamble getting it from over the pond but least you bought from a collector who knew what they were doing

One of 8 I need to complete so least a competitor is out of the way :lol:

Thanks Iain, it's what I messaged you about last weekend, but I quickly decided due to the fragile bubble it was probably safer to send it straight here rather than via you and Neil, 1 journey instead of three.

nice tri fett displays well you wouldn't know the bubble was cracked looking at it.lucky you!.I bet waiting for it to arrive and not knowing if it would make the journey in one piece was a nerve wrecking experience.

A tri fett is a thing of beauty.Wish I owned one.

Yes mate - I would have advised the same - especially for a damaged bubble - glad you landed it though
