[QUOTE="escapist, post: 257869, member: 4347"] This is fascinating stuff and as a non-vintage-MOC collector, it is interesting to look at it from an outsider perspective. If the AFA are grading these, then the question is, what impact would this ever have on values? Clearly the guy has been able to 'fake' something indistinguishable from the real thing using the same source material. In real terms, would it ever be possible to 'prove' this point, and as a result, call into question the integrity of the AFA. To clarify, I have no feelings against the AFA, but if anyone was able to conclusively demonstrate difference between these 90's reseal/recard (not sure which!) it would certainly mean some grades would effectively be worthless! And finally, whenever I see the name Toni all I can think of is: 'Paul, recarding a Star Wars figure is a lot like making love to a beautiful woman....' [ATTACH=full]133688[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
