My 2-1b focus

[Joe]

Awesome new additions Jason, you seem to be going after 2-1B a bit more full on again, keep us updated as and when more stuff comes in!

Out of interest, what are your 2-1B grails, are you after pre prod and what should we look out for on your behalf?

 

[mr_palitoy]

Have always been looking, stuff just doesn't come up that often!

Production MOCs I'm missing:-

palitoy esb 45a with blue circle offer (already have as reseal)
general mills esb 45b without "collect all 45 figures" on the back of the card (already have as cardback)
canadian esb offerless 41 back (already have as cardback)
canadian esb 41a survival kit offer/rotj transition (has blue border on special offer)
toltoys 41 back (has NSW address on the back of the card)
poch esb 37/41 back (uber rare and expensive i would imagine)

There's a bunch of pre production stuff, half a dozen cardbacks and a first shot figure. All I have so far is a revenge proof cardback.

And yes, I am thinking about that group shot!!!

Thanks to DarthStanley for the heads up on this. It's a double pronged bubble Palitoy 45c which I haven't seen before. It came from ToyToni and looks case fresh.

Truly impressive run Jason, they must look awesome all together! I was always rather fond of 2-1B, an under-rated figure, it's a well thought out design and quite different from any other figure. Lovely stuff.

 

[olisuds]

Love this focus! 2-1b is a cool figure and those are some lovely looking MOCs!

 

[8bitaaron]

Wow that 2-1b collection is amazing :shock:

 

[mr_palitoy]

First new addition for a while. This is a Kenner 48 back, with not one, but with two stickers.

The first is the free revenge of the jedi sticker. Still looking for a MOC with just this sticker on it.

The second is the black wrap round Clipper sticker.

cheers Jason

My first MOC addition to this focus in what seems like forever.

So in the post Toy Toni world 5 of these MOC pieces were down to Toni.

The Palitoy 45C 2-1b with rectangular bubble. I had 2 of these and AFA 85 and and an AFA 90. I have sold on the AFA 90 with full disclosure.
The Palitoy 45C with double stemmed bubble came directly from the man himself.
Then also German ESB 45b with the English text on the back of the card. I have a single stem with missing embossed number on it from his
Toniship and a double stemmed bubble.

Have decided to keep these pieces for now as I have no genuine factory sealed examples of any of them. I think a Palitoy 45C is rare
as I have yet to see a genuine example, I believe it will be a double stemmed bubble or rectangular bubble with gaps at the bottom
as the used cardback I have has a bubble imprint which matches this.

Anyway, onto the new MOC:-

This is a genuine factory sealed Palitoy 45CN, this was made and carded in Hong Kong, where Toni couldn't
get his grubby mitts on it. It is the card that was already featured on my Palitoy guide at:-

http://www.freewebs.com/mrpalitoy/rotj45ccardback.htm

I have updated the photo on my guide and added that the bubble has 03A embossed in the bottom right hand corner:-

Other differences from the regular Palitoy 45C are the punch which is perforated and the HN letters after (ROJ1) on the back of
the card. I am also delighted that this card has a price sticker on it that shows it was shop sold and that it has been
nowhere near AFA.

All in, I'm well chuffed. It's been sitting on ebay for months, I guess only I knew it was genuine. It was only with my recent
ebay sales that I could justify buying it.

Nice new addition Jason, really cool that it has a Kay Bee sticker on it too - very rarely see Kay Bee stickers on anything other than Trilogos or late ROTJ Pali's.
