Few group pictures here to show the scale of this mini focus of mine, I have been focusing on 8D8 for just under 2 years on and off and I am finally finished with the Kenner
production run (Mailers and carded), I have 3/5 of the known Tri logo variations and a hell of a long way to go on the pre production!

Group shots taken September 2009, since sold on a few pieces, destroyed one and added a few more :mrgreen:

Thanks guys! Appreciate the comments, I was going through some stuff earlier and just thought, sod it, I have five minutes I will chuck it all out on the desk and take some pictures before I get told off :lol: :lol:

Carl, the carded Kenner on the bottom are as follows :
Canadian 65b, US 77a, 77b, 77a(which is filling in for my 79a ;) ) , 79b
(The double offer on the far left starting the run is a 79b + coin offer sticker)

The top row of Trilogo cards are as follows :
AFA 80 Trilogo + clipper catalogue, Trilogo + clipper catalogue , Palitoy Trilogo

And the coin that was packaged with the custom is , of course, EV-9D9 ;)

Andy, the custom cost me a tenner :lol: Just a bit of fun, not really something I am into normally but when I saw it I couldn't resist 8) :roll:

Great to see an updated pic of them all together Joe.

Now if you could just find that blasted offerless 79 back.

.... the picture would STILL look the same but technically I would be a happy chappy :mrgreen:

I could always just never turn that second 77back over and pretend its a 79! :lol:

Thanks again Shawn :)

I always freak out when I see that POTF 8D8.
:oops: If only! A POTF Proof card was (and will always be) out of my price range so it's my fun piece for that reason!

I also am going to need that Dungeon 3-Pack. :D

That sounds interesting! ... May I ask why? :)

The Jabba's Dungeon was very exiting when it came out because if I remember correctly, (at the time) it was the only way to get Nikto, Klaatu Skiff and 8D8. It was also one of the last SW toys I ever got back then. Awwww... :wink:

looking good Joe :)

Thanks mate! Just think your collection could have looked something like this if you had gone with it lol

(Although I would rather have your collection instead of mine, not for character but definitely for rare items + acrylic cases :lol: )

So back in the day 8D8 was considered a bit of a special figure eh? Interesting ;)

Nice story Bryan, and yes definitely pick one up if you can :)
