I've not posted in the LA thread for a while now (I haven't really had any new bits to show off), but I did picked up these two items...
I really only paid the price as if they were ungraded, so pretty chuffed with that as graded carries a pretty hefty premium for these.

Damien, you've done well there if you've picked up an 85 graded Yak for loose money! Graded like that those things go for close to 300.
I picked these two up from eBay. They were on Buy It Nows and survived several hours before I bought them. How the Ugnaught made it more than 30 seconds I don't know, he's bit of a hard one to find on the 41 back. I wasn't going to go for Lobot as I already had a nice one although it did have a crease on one corner. Anyway, the price dropped dramatically overnight and it would have been rude not to.
The Ugnaught is a 41A cardback. It clearly sat underneath the Lobot in a box as the bubble is creased at the top and there's the indent on the back of the Lobot! The Lobot is a 41BN variations, which is nice as it turns out my other Lobot is a 41B. Comparing the two figures there are remarkable differences between the two which if you're interested then check out the thread I'll get around to starting when I get the chance (link to follow). Both cards are warped but will flatten out in some nice acrylic.
These two figures were clearly from the same source (both now via a house clearance guy and originally when sold) and have spent the last 30 years together. It may not come out in the photo below but those are ".20" price stickers. I'm guessing that meant they were 20p. I've never seen a cheaper figure. I feel fortunate to be able to keep them together still.

Can't beleive he's gone TBH, or Bowie
Those Palitoy's are the bollocks Simon, Uggy especially. They must have been on sale at that price, I always remember figures being at least £1.
That ESB Palitoy Ben CB is really nice too.

2000 pages and 29991 posts, let's hope post 30000 is a good one, maybe Edd should have the honor?
Any, back to business.....here are two highlights from my recent Bossk pickups.
Firstly this Palitoy 30 back reseal from Simon;
View attachment 1
And secondly this placemat from Ebay which seems to be one of the few vintage oddball items out there for Bossk.

Agree with Paul there mate, that Spanish almbum looks the nuts.
The Helix case is IMO the rarer of the 2. I see 3 lighter versions for every one of the darker ones you have there mate. Not really worth more but a cool item to get. The collecting Helix road is long...and expensive.
