Fair play Lee if it dosent bover you then that's all that matters at the end of the day :D I still think if they put a piece of acrylic between his feet then he would of not budged out of position. It's those little attention to details that put me of afa tbh especially with it being a high end figure.

Congrats on the 80 grade Lee 8)

Thanks all, I don't know why he got an 80, I'll pull out the magnifying glass when I finally get to see him in the flesh.

Looking at the fett I can see there is a fair bit of paint that has been applied to heavy/badly and is on parts of the figure it shouldn't be and Imagine that's why the figure got an 80. I have a fett mailer and can say hands down it is the worst paint job I have ever seen on a figure :cry:

:lol: have to agree Mike. Apart from the one I got from you, all of the paint on my other Fetts is a bit hit and miss!
Great pick ups lads, loving the Fett 21 back and the chrome figures, and Lee that Vlix is awesome buddy.

The fella had some other bits and pieces as well, I always remembered that someone on here had said that 'you wont get, if you dont ask'....I told him I was interested in one of the other cards and Offered €20 (£15) which he said ''ok so''.......Now, I'm no expert, but I think thats not to bad for a MOC, Tri-Logo Yoda :eek: , There is a slight hairline crack in the bubble by the cane but as you can see displays great.....................

Holy crap dude. Great pick ups- totally come along way. Great bargin as well. Collections jumped to overdrive.

Got the snaggletooth thanks buddy- well happy.

Awesome fett. Love the chrome dipped figures, they look class. Great way of turning battle scarred figures to something fantabulous.

Looks like a harsh 80 to me. Looks great.

Lee, was the Vlix cased on an angle, or did he shift? Again, looks like a bit of a harsh 80.

He was actually cased at an angle as theres no room for movement if he was straight he wouldnt fit in the case, i was given the chance to have it customized but didnt bother as that would have meant more waiting, also its a strong 80 but i can see why i missed 85 as there is wear on the tips of hands back of feet and all around the bottom part of torso but apart from that its clean.

Would have liked an 85 though :) I took another photo so you can see no room for the arms to move around for straightness, as a lot of people have mentioned it though even though it dont bother me i might decide to get it recased once i get over the period of wanting to look at him lol

Really like the way Steve at UKG is doing the Luke Farmboy with the saber in arm. He said he will do this for Ben and Vader aswell, Looks way better imo......... :D

Nice one Jeff. I agree about the saber looking better this way. I can never understand why they usually tape it to the side. Well done.
