Not part of the run but spotted this on eBay whilst looking for a 12 back R2 made an offer and seller accepted so had to have him

Done a little work on him just tidying him up, very happy with him now

Sorry pics have come out in reverse, first pic is end result

Mike , so glad you are getting to where you wanted to be (collecting wise)

Slowly does it ;)

How many newbies have came into collecting in teh past few years and are now selling like crazy??

R2 on an empire card is one of my all time faves :)

Yes the empire R2 is a cracker, has a great image on the cardback really pleased to get that one.

The 12 back R2 I have on its way is not for everyone but looks fine as a place filler for me as it's Palitoy but has had repair work and a replacement bubble, but will se when it arrives, will post pics, only 3 to go now on the run!

So these may not be to everyone's taste, but the repairs are obvious but have been well done, original Palitoy cards ( nameplates been replaced) and the bubbles are new, for me they are place fillers but probably the nearest I will come for a long while, I'm happy that they are not repaired to fool anyone but are sympathetically done, and happily display in my collection.

It's hard to make out the repair on these two Mike but they look fantastic and great additions to your collection.

Really nice looking :D

You can easily see the repairs when close up Ian, but that's added to it for me as they were not done to fool anyone but on display fine for me, really chuffed..only Snag, LXW, R5 and Wally to go now :D
Need some more acrylic then have a display rearrange loving doing this run.

Cheers Ian

So have had a play around today added another shelf and the black SW Logo.

Got so tied up with the mixed Kenner Palitoy 12/20/21 back run, hadn't realised I had completed the 12 back run! So had a switch around.

Only 4 to go on the full run now...Wally, R5, LXW & red snag

Have more baggies to go on display as well yet.
