Thanks fellas I do love the ESB Line and I'm made up with these.
I don't think so knowing where I got it from but there is a slight difference when I compared it to his twin brother with the shiny dome, Why do you ask?

It's hard to tell form the picture so i may be wrong but the lines on the R2 sticker look ever so slightly wavy. More than likely it's just the picture and i'm worrying you over nothing. 
On the original R2 the lines are dead straight. On many reproduction stickers the lines are slightly wavy as if drawn by hand. Look >
Repro sticker on the left, original on the right.
Compare these to yours and make sure yours looks like the one on the right. As i say it's very hard to tell, it may just be the picture. Glad to be wrong.

I hope you are wrong mate, what do yo think?
Yeah they look fine mate. Sorry to worry you. I'll shut my mouth now. :lol:
Another big give-away is on the repro stickers, the vent type bit is kind of coloured in with a dark blue in the background where-as the original is just clean dark lines on a grey background.
Again repro left, original right.
Glad yours are real Sorry again for the scare. Better to be safe than sorry tho.

No Problem at all Pete, I'd rather be sure as I hate the repo ****.
I think there's slightly different stickers from different factory's and lines to which makes it more confusing, both mine have the same MIHK COO but slightly different detail, also different to yours. Out of curiosity what COO does yours have?
Scott
Yeah one original can sometimes look slightly different to another which is why i referenced that vent issue with the repros.
Those images are not from my R2s. I just ripped them off ebay. You don't have to search long there before you find an R2 with a repro sticker.

Ye ebay can be a right nightmare but also a great place to find a bargain. Would be good If we could get these sticker differences marked down as the repos just keep getting better.
Lee, those Palitoys are beautiful mate, nicely done!
Lee77 Same goes for your SW cards amazing condition.
Nice loosies and Hammerhead Scott awesome stuff.
Not SW related but I had to show it cos it's cool, never had an autograph before but picked this up off RS for a tenner. My favourite character from my favourite episode of my favourite ( American ) TV show.
NO SOUP FOR YOU!

Morning Chaps!
Gamble paid off... These little fella's arrived this morning... I guess you can spot my favourite one?!
Couldn't resist documenting the opening on this momentus occasion for my first DT Luke!!
Enjoy.
Who's that hiding in there?
Ooohhhh... Oh its just Luke in his Farmboy outfit!
... but what's that in his hand?
Oh... Thats what it is!!
These are a few friends that kept him company on his long journey from the US!!
The C3PO is actually unsnapped, none of his limbs move and he's really shiny and gold.... Lovely!!
Thanks to all of you who helped out and offered their opinions and especially to Iain for giving me the confidence to go for it!!

Cheers buddy... I'm very happy with the purchase although it may be near the top end (about £280 for the DT Vader). The figure is really nice ad the actual DT Saber is awesome, just the one kink which was more than likely factory to keep it in.
I may still put some pics of the DT Saber up to get authentication, I have been doing my research and I believe it to be, plus the guy who sold it would've mentioned it as he's well known on eBay and RS.
