Wow!

Thanks fellas. Hindsight is a wonderful thing on reflection of some of those unseen investments that were knocking around in the 90's. However reading some of those interviews on your website Joe, I don't think anything that has slipped through my hands comes anywhere near what some of those...

Cheers Liam. I'm getting there. :D

Thanks Iain. Yep, when I got most of them they were the poor man's Kenner cousin, but that seems to have changed. Glad you like the WBG. Both bubble & card are in great shape. Hybrid's were a revelation to me this summer. At one point I even wondered if he was a fake. Some more of the 6 are...

Cheers Joe. I know you like that 2-1B. He's belter. No plans for him to go anywhere, but If he ever does I'll make sure you get first dibs. He's actually one of the ones with the price on. £15 8) I know I knocked him down on that as well, as I had a few off him. :D I don't think those prices...

Hello fellas. After sharing my Kenner & Palitoy's not so long ago, I though it about time I put some pics of my Tri-Logo's up to share. They were all bought in the mid 90's aside from the AT AT, Leia &, AT ST. Some of the dealer price tags are still on some of them which is a nice little...

Yep, I agree with James. From the Rebel Scum link he posted it looks quite clear that there must have been a batch of plastic mixed up slightly wrong, and this caused shrinkage. Still a nice fig to have though imo. You've made me want one of those short scarf ones to go with it now Fletch. :D

Crikey, that's a turn up. Interesting to see they actually graded it as a short scarf as well. Good stuff, thanks.

I don't condone that sort of brutality, but I must admit you did a bloody good job. As much as I loved them boys with their ruler straight arms and legs, they never really looked like they could put up much of a fight!

Totally agree Snaggle. That naive styling of the first 20 make them far cooler than any Jedi figure today. I wonder if they'd have known at the time they'd be setting out their stall for another 77 characters, if they'd have put a bit more effort in and spoilt it. As for the POTF2, enough said...

:lol: If you can get the Qautro. I can make the call. Let's hope the next post on here isn't.... "Michelle Haverstock." "Remember her?" "I ****in married her!"

Wow, I'd have been blown away if I'd have seen one as a kid. I got mega excited as an adult, seeing one for the first time in a collectors shop in Manchester in the mid 90's. I also had the Palitoy one as a kid, but I'm afraid to say the Kenner one blows it out of the water. Broke just too easy...

Wow, good work James. :D Couldn't find anything when I first got it. I think that looks like the actual one I bought too. :D (paid less than $3 on a punt) That all makes complete sense. Shrinkage would cause the splay, and as the plastic has to go somewhere so everything get's a bit fatter...

Yep, possibly. :lol: But' it was the fact that the legs were actually a lot shorter in length that was puzzling. The pics don't show it too well, but when you see it you really notice.

I was indeed a 70's child Gary. Born in Newcastle 73, and I think it was 79 when we moved to Shropshire. It seems like there was certainly quite a bit of randomness in how the toys were distributed. I do remember clearly that when I went up to Newcastle, as a kid I would see things that I...
