I managed to upgrade my snaggletooth so selling/trading the old one. It’s a palitoy 20bk and sealed with a beautiful bubble. At some point it’s had some kind of moisture damage and parts of the card are a bit wavey when angled to the light - displays very well though. Asking £630 plus...

There is a lot of negativity in the hobby at the moment, so here's something positive... I have been amazingly fortunate and have won a tour of the world famous Pinewood Studios in Jez's charity raffle... but I've decided to offer the tickets to posters on SWFUK, as I was lucky enough to have a...

I know the individual stickers go for very little, but are there many unopened packs around or countertop boxes (opened or sealed!) around? Does anybody have a feel for the prices of these? I’d be looking for the UK issue panini packs rather Han topps. I have a lot of memories of...

Selling my UKG85 Jazz (G1, not a reissue!). No sign of tape on the box, so UKG had to grade it as 'opened with sealed contents' - although they said they couldn't see any conclusive proof it had been opened. I imagine this was just not taped at the factory for some reason. Apparently the...

There has been a good deal of chat over the past few months about some mega tough Palitoy cards. Namely, 41bk Dengar and a few of the first 12 characters on 30bk cards. Some contributors claim to own or have owned these, although are unable or unwilling to post pictures. That's their call and...

I took a few photos of my small collections, hopefully I'll update the post as and when I add new items. For now, here is my collection: My little Star Wars corner: Close up of my loose run, in a case built for me by my brother in law. You can see I'm missing Blue Snaggletooth, Paploo and...

I'm looking for the following! Loose: Blue Snaggletooth Vinyl Jawa - not graded ideally. Palitoy: Palitoy ‘toys of the film’ poster Sealed Diecast Star Destroyer Landspeeder Palitoy Mailers (with address labels ideally) Rancor Keepr Survival Kit 4-Lom Palitoy ESB cards 30a FX7 45a bespin...

I'm struggling a bit. I think a combination of poor exchange rates, deals seeming harder to do, more competition, high prices and some very speculative pricing is really turning me off SW collecting. I feel like the whole collecting scene is feeling far more competitive and aggressive than it...

I'm looking for a few figures to complete my loose run: Large head Han Blue Snaggletooth Amanaman Romba Paploo I also need a black leia blaster, 2 endor blasters and an A Wing blaster Need to be complete, in nice shape with original accessories - nothing repro.

I made the trip up to sunny Leicester on Saturday, to collect something from Leicester Vintage & Old Toy Shop. I've been to a few 'vintage' shops over the years, and have generally left a little flat - travelling a decent distance to find a few overpriced vintage items in between lots of...

I'm looking for a 20bk meccano (square card) R2-D2 and will trade my 12bk Meccano Leia for one. Leia is probably rarer and it's definitely harder to get an example of a 12bk over a 20bk, but I really want the R2.

Must be complete with vintage accessories, not sticky and with minimal wear - ideally no paint loss (although I appreciate this is unlikely). I need: Large head Han Vinyl Jawa Blue snaggletooth R2-D2 sensorscope Rebo band Lumat R2 pop-up Lando General Luke endor Romba Barada Amanaman A...

I'm looking for some near mint loose figures to complete my loose figure run. I need: All ESB figures All ROTJ Figures All Last 17 figures They need to be complete and with minimal paint loss and not sticky. I'd much sooner buy groups of figures to save keeping track of loads of small deals...

My brother in law is a carpenter who specialises in cabinets and display cases and has offered to build me a wall mounted display case for the loose figure run I'm putting together. However, I need to give him the measurements and I dont have anywhere near a full set yet to measure. I'm...

A few more items for sale, all going to finance some new purchases (and create some space too in the case of the TIE Fighters): Meccano TIE Fighter (Chasseur TIE). Nice box, bright colours, proper inserts and instructions and all flaps present. TIE is nice and white with stickers applied...

I've been offered an AFA 70 (card 70, Bubble 80, figure 80) 12 back Leia as a trade for something Im selling, and am after an opinion as to whether it would be a fair deal or not? Does anybody know what one would be worth - to actually sell, not sit on ebay forever? Thanks!

I was born in '77, so Star Wars really hit my radar when I was 4 or 5 and watched it on TV (and a million times afterwards on some strange Philips VCR my Dad thought was the future but failed faster than Betamax). Like most of us I was mad for the figures, and like many I lost/swapped/traded...

Well, here is the (in)famous Han Bespin Palitoy 45a - seems to be case fresh, just really badly stored so in no way mint. Card doesn't lay flat (star case sorts that out) and has a few creases with dont break the colour. Bubble sealed, although has a yellow tint and a ding. Unpunched with...

Firstly, this is purely an observation and definitely not levelled at anybody in particular - genuinely. We've all seen prices for vintage rise and reach some crazy (in historical terms) heights. It's a separate discussion as to whether this is an unsustainable bubble or the effect of one of...

Hey guys, I'm in a pickle and was wondering if there was a friendly member in or around Inverness who could help me out. Basically I flew out of there today and, like an idiot, left something which is now in lost property at the airport and I have no way of collecting it. I know it's a big...
