No it's ok, it looks like all 12B and 12C cards are overprinted. No need to go out of your way to get new examples at this point. cheers Jason

No, it's ok. I've played with the Hue/Saturation in GIMP which highlights the text better! Latest thinking is that all 12B cards and 12C cards were overprints and it's only some cards that you can even see the text showing through on! cheers Jason

It looks like all the Han Solo 12A cards had already had figures and bubbles attached so couldnt be reprinted a second time. It's possible that other of the 12A cards were also carded so dont exist as a 12AB variant. Keep checking those cards! :-) Jason

Ok cheers. Thanks for the update. So we have:- R2D2 Darth Vader Luke Skywalker Looking for:- Ben Kenobi Princess Leia Sandpeople Stormtrooper C3PO Chewbacca These would be an amazing bonus:- Death Squad Commander Jawa :-) Jason

One other mystery. Why didn’t they run any of the Han Solo 12A cards through a second time to black out the extra text? Jason

This topic has been mentioned previously by palitoyjunky on the SWFUK forum a while ago. There are examples of the 12B card variation where the extra text "Laser Light and sound" on the back of the card under the Tie Fighter and X-Wing Fighter has been removed by taking a 12A card and running...

Matt will be filming round mine in a few weeks for some story establishing scenes. Great to see this getting off the drawing board! cheers Jason

Sent you a PM Matt. Good luck! Jason

I already have this one. cheers Jason

Bounty Hunter Capture Log (1981 release 1st revision) Do you have a picture of the inside or back of this? Would like to buy if its the one I need. cheers Jason

Yep, modern digital printing techniques have rectangular pixels, good old vintage has dots. Its best seen on the racktrack on the front of the card and is obvious with a magnifying glass or digital camera zoom. cheers Jason

I started my 12 back run with a 12A Vader the wife found in The Cinema Store which cost me £125. I then got an R2D2 for about £250. Then in your deal I got Jawa, Stormie, DSC, R2D2, Vader, C3PO and Sandpeople. It was about £250-300 a card, £1900 in all. Then I got a Ben for about £500. Then on...

Hey, small world. That was my first big deal for palitoy MOCs and there were 7 of them. Including my palitoy 12c stormie. Debut card collectors may be after a 12A card more than a 12B but there arent many of those. And for a full run of 12 backs you need a mixed 12A/12B run anyway as Han is on...

Steady on there Santa, summers just getting started! :) Jason

A grade chaser may pay more for an AFA'd one. It's also a coffin though and prevents safe postage. There's really no premium between 12A and 12B releases on Palitoy 12 backs in my experience. Jason
