Latest Acquisitions

Another one down, two to go ( Snaggletooth & Boba Fett ). Many thanks to Shawn for posting this little fella to me, cheers mate.

Nice. I always liked how the Greedo figure looked so 70's!!

Any thoughts on why they changed the footers to having rounded corners on the front?
Maybe this should be another topic but I can't imagine many takers.

No idea

Eventually they dropped the footers altogether. Which was a pity as I think they make the whole presentation look better

I guess the share holders stepped in and thought it was paying just too much for all that packaging. First they took the corners and then they took the lot!

I do agree with you though that as well as shuring up the packaging it made the presentation better. Also it helped keep the figures more upright, which is why I never understood why they started to use wider bubbles, again more cost cutting I guess.

One of my other dislikes is when the weapon becomes unstuck or falls out of the figures hand and the person who packed the figures thought it was a good idea to turn their head around, standards, standard, standards!

Not much of vintage but still Fett related.
Much tanxs to Chris_J for the proof card deal & also the free Celebration 5 autograph card.

Nice hoth trooper jeff

Been quiet as of late with my buys except a few from Shaun that have all arrived nicely.

One I'd like you guys to see is my General Mills (Deutsch) empire 45 back Leia hoth.


Seasons greetings to you all and hope next year is good to you all.

Nice. I have one of those. I don;t think I've ever seen a dodgy GM Card. They always seem case fresh

That's because when Hasbro acquired Palitoy a few unopened German 45 back cases were found in a warehouse. So most of them are case fresh. Toytoni had a few. I got Han original and Han Bespin from him.

Wow some great acquisitions,gratz all!

Do luke have the correct color on the blaster ?

Unfortunately its the wrong blaster for the figure.
Another one to add to my needed weapons list.

Another piece of the budget 12 backs arrived today together with an absolute beautiful Meccano Jawa



Never knew those Meccano cards where that small and cute!

Hay All

I haven't posted for a while, so many great new pick ups and far to many to mention.

Just thought I'd post an image of my latest Ledy figure. Really pleased with it. I'll be popping a Ledy limelight up on the forum sometime next year.

Couple of great cards there Erik - love that Leia - need one myself

MrKenner - that is one of the mintiest LL cards I have seen - absolute quality
