My Fiscally responsible Star Wars collection Update 29.05.13

:lol: That'd be right, here I am trying to sound like I know what I'm talking about and in struts Frank! :lol:

To be honest mate I haven't a clue if the OH Luke is an Aussie variant, god I hope not as that would make another TT item that's way out of my price range :lol:

Cheers mate.

I think the OH Luke is an American variant. The more I look, it seems that variants were all over the place though. :?

EDIT: There is an OH Luke that can be found in Australia. It's not confirmed as exclusive though.

Cracking collection, just looking at your pictures and I can see myself taking the plunge and collecting carded figures. They look amazing, feel like a kid again looking at them in the toy shop. Was only ever planning to buy 1 carded figure - R2 as he was my first ever figure but can feel myself slipping, maybe my first 3 figures on cards, or maybe first figure of SW, ESB and ROTJ or maybe first 21 or maybe................... :roll:

Cheers fellas,

Pomse, No variations with the figures themselves mate, I think the only two recognised Toltoys variations that exist figure wise are Vader and Jawa ( Vinyl Cape ).

Thanks Iain, I've actually got to update the pics as I scored a huge lot of original footers of which I was able to fill the missing one's on all but a few. Couldn't beleive my luck with that, all the Palitoy's look so much better with their footers back in place.

Hi Ryan, thanks for the information about the jawa and vader

I think the footers really finish the cards off, just as they were meant to be! I also managed to score a load of original footers myself recently, it seems like we both had some luck there.

Cheers Fellas,

Yeah you're pretty fortunate to find footers for sale, right time right place and so on.

Glad some people had the foresight to hang on to them

 

[TwistedMetal]

Hey Ryan your collection looks great mate.

 

[tundra9]

Looks great Ryan!
Wasn't there a Fett reseal for sale on here a couple of weeks ago? Can't find the thread now though...

 

[tiefighterboy]

Ryan.....Just bumping your limelight...........I love all of these...... reseals or not. If you ever get any spare cardbacks...Let me know.

 

[BlueDog]

Hey Todd,

Cheers mate I just so happen to have been sorting through some stuff and came upon a spare 12 back Luke with bubble ( not from same card think it may have been for an ESB FB ). Also have a few spare bubbles which may be of use to you: Han 12 back, Hammerhead 20 back and Lando Skiff, Drop me a PM if you're interested dude. Mate rates of course :lol:

Edit: Sorry Jorn just read your post mate, if you happen to remember where you saw that Boba Fett I'd certainly be interested, there's one for sale on RS but it doesn't have it's original bubble and the figure and weapon have been glued to the card :?

 

[tiefighterboy]

PM'd you...also I have a few cardbacks with the bubble still attached..........maybe we could work some magic.

 

[Badderius]

Love the figures and the goal to have each opened, they look superb!

 

[BlueDog]

Star Wars set complete!! Hooray!!

Updated with some Canadian goodies,

 

[aussiejames]

what a great trio to complete the SW set

 

[chazb73]

Just spotted your thread Bluedog - love these, I think good reseals can be great esp if the figure is mint inside great stuff :wink:

 

[BlueDog]

Hey Chaz thanks mate, it's a great way to collect cards that are otherwise out of my price range, good fun tracking them down too.

I've updated the pics on page 1 as I've sold off most of my spares and ESB,ROTJ reseals.

Cheers Ryan

Great collection.

How are the bubbles so clear? I don't think I've seen a yellowed loose bubble before.
