Wow that boba moc is awesome (y). I only thought it was some tri-logo who had wrong weapons. I don't remember I have seen esb moc with wrong weapons before :oops:

Pretty sure it does- away at the mo, so will check when I'm back. Haven't looked at the backs for years, so can't remember with clarity.
 
Nice to see this thread back up again, just scrolled through it all again & there really are some stunning pieces, I'll share a couple more myself below to keep it ticking, may come back with a few more.

1st up is the super group tear off strip which I have managed to piece back together, you don't see many of these.

& one of my 2 sealed woolies 8 packs, it's mad after all the research put in by Laurence that we could not find any other confirmed sealed examples, with the number of these that were issued you'd expect there to be a fair few still in existence but from what we have found out to date there are only 4 genuine still sealed examples that have been seen in the last 10 years & only 2 of them can be traced, making these a damn site rarer than say a rocket firing fett or POTF Anakin.

Wow Frank some amazing baggies. I have never seen or heard about the super group tear off strip, I guess it was not something that was sold in denmark. Thanks for sharing it :)

No Lars just a dead stock item shifted by the super group here in the UK, they were a liquidations / cheap buy up type operation based in Sheffield, that would buy up anything & everything as long as it was cheap & re package & distribute to anyone willing to buy the stock, I have only ever seen 4 or 5 of these strips in all the years I have been collecting, usually all emperors but I have seen RK's & Dengars also on them, one would assume excess stock left over from the ROTJ era mail away promotion.

These ended up for sale in all sorts of local small stores as a bargain basement item, 99p & then often further reduced, I really love the quirky stuff like this, much of it never being officially licenced like the Irish 3 packs & woolies packs.

Ok, Frank, thanks. I did not know all this, it is very interesting :) Maybe one day you also get Dengar complete ;)
 
Gary, Gary, Gary!!

Thats just so greedy, you need to spread the boba love, I will happily rent one off you 😜


Seriously that amazing mate 😎
 
What a great thread. And those vintage yoghurt pots - awesome! I've thankfully still got a few Star Wars items after my somewhat 'eventful' divorce, most of which are grail items for me. But the two more unusual items I own are my Jorg Sacul figure from Japan with it's flyer:

And my other item being the TRU Rocket Firing Boba Fett which came with a letter from TRU confirming I was a winner (1/850 given away prior release):

With the rarest (I think, I've lost touch with valuations these days) is maybe my Tournament of Roses Stormtrooper Figure (+ Card, pin and trooper patch). I was after this figure for YEARS and finally managed to track down a goodie to go with my other related items (still after the folder!).
