Yeah, just noticed Chewie is missing. Someone must of made her an offer she couldn't refuse.

I personally can't see it selling for 10k, especially with 5 more equally case fresh examples to come. But who knows? In the world of Palitoy Star Wars, anything goes.

So, is it possible for Mr. Average (mortgage, two kids, limited disposable income) to put a Palitoy 12 back set together today? Difficult when even the traditional 'entry level' 12 backs (Threepio and Sandpeople) now routinely sell for £500-1000, instead of the £150-300 they were until recently...

Exactly Ian, Palitoy is all about nostalgia. I don't get the same buzz from Kenner toys that I do with Palitoy. And not just Star Wars - I recently picked up some Palitoy Starsky and Hutch figures, great memories!

It's totally fake, I emailed her about it saying so but got no reply. She seems to list rare items but usually pulls them before the end, you wait and see - she'll have a carded Vlix up next.

Yes, respect for doing the right thing Lucy. As Ian says, you wont get what you were originally asking for but you should see some profit. Very interested to see the final prices on these.

I wasn't going to bid, the next few weeks are bad for me financially (car tax, service, New brake discs, New suspension) but as soon as I saw those photos I crumbled. It's only money, that's what overdrafts are for. Still convinced we are going to see record prices on May 27th, it's going to...

Simply stunning to see all that, thanks for posting. Maybe if I sell one of my kidneys I might be able to buy some of it. No sign of those 6 Death Stars? I'm dying to see them.

Totally agree with everything Andy has just posted. Lucy, you are of course entitled to ask what you want for your items, but you have to be realistic. Andy has pointed out the flaws your Palitoy figures have and is spot on with his pricing imo. So many collectors, myself included, are being...

If memory serves, the bounty hunter capture log and comic adverts only told you to cut out and send nameplates, I don't recall any offer that asked you to cut out the Fett symbols. Maybe both were acceptable and Palitoy failed to make that clear. I remember when the symbols first appeared on...

She's got another Kenner 12 back Vinyl Jawa listed now, however this one is clearly a fake. She states "Kenner original". Another gift from one of her "rich men" no doubt. :lol:

Well done Jez, that's a great finish time. Now get those feet soaking in a foot spa, you've earned it!

Late to the party here, donation sent. All the best for tomorrow mate.

Well, he's only asking £1500 for the Death Star Droid. Never mind that a much nicer one has sat unsold for months at £800.

I almost fell asleep reading his description. Could of just said "Loose Darth Vader with cardback and bubble", but no - lets write a novel.

Nice collection, as others say nicely displayed too. Never give up on the 4 remaining 12 backs, sure they're pricey right now but keep looking, you'll find them at a decent price eventually.

Well that's put my mind at rest. Ebay never ceases to amaze me. "Rich gentlemen often give me things to sell". Yeah, I bet they do....... :wink:

Yeah, creative use of Photoshop there. As you say, steer well clear.

Just did the usual Palitoy Star Wars search on Ebay, what should pop up but another Palitoy Vinyl cape Jawa. When I clicked on it I got the old 'ended due to error in listing' message. Curious what others think, fake? Stolen photos? Starting bid of £100, very little information in listing. I...

We're fast approaching the point where it will be impossible to pick up any decent Palitoy 12 back for less than £1000. Even Sandpeople and Threepio. A glut of 12 backs hitting the market at the same time should lower prices, but I've a horrible feeling they won't because demand is at an all...
