12 back vinyl jawa

[JB007]

I reckon this carded jawa is a reseal card with repro vinyl cape? its being sold as genuine sealed figure somebodys about to pay a lot of money for fake.

I'm not sure on this one the way he has worded the description is strange. But I'm not hot on VC Jawa's, although I'm sure plenty of others on here will be able to say.

If it's fake then it's a good one. :roll:

I don't think it's a reseal as I can see the sellotape where the bubble has been attached. At best it's an original card but I doubt that very much and there's no way that VCJ cape is original, very expensive mistake for someone. :roll:

This auction will be pulled at any moment, just watch. This jackass is constantly posting up rare SW stuff, like a SEALED SW Sandcrawler, then pulling it a few days into the auction. A ploy, I think, to get bidders to look at the stuff they 'actually' have.

Avoid this tool at all costs chaps.

I'm sure this seller only dose this to get a rise from this forum - Countless time's she crops up with bullshit listings.

Oh it's there all right if you look close enough, you can see where the sides of it meet up with the top and bottom ( not sure if you were just joking tough ).

the guy who sold this cardback is sfoxx-2012 (167) ebay know about it.

if it was real 12 back vinyl jawa it would be selling for £5k - £10k, anyway someone bought it for £820 silly billy! these fake cards & vinyl cape jawas are usually being sold for round about £50.



I blame this guy in spain whos flooding the market with repro SW cardbacks? the cardback that just sold may of come originally from this guy.

this is real jawa vinyl cape, his cape is a lot less bent over round the top and is more dull colour, a fake has more of the cape bent over and its shiny

I find these threads really useful, it's a minefield out there. Thanks for this.

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.

Cheers Chris,

If you look at the first and last picture using the zoom tool you can see a white line where the top tape meets the side tape underneath the seal. It's always a give away with a re-card/custom job but it isn't an easy spot at all with these pictures. Also that cape does look to be the same repro one as the spain guy sells. To orange in colour and very shiny on one side. I really hope the buyer either doesn't pay or knows they've got a fake as that's a crazy price to pay for this.

Oh and whilst were on the subject what's this? -

Ben Kenobi cut down cape stuffed into a cloth cape Jawa card back? I'll take the link down for outing it if people think I should but it just looks like another scam to me (glad to be proved wrong though).
