Admiral ...some answers ?

[Michael Sith]

Hi gents

Another question for the SW gurus on here

Bubble yellow and think some damage, my son has picked up for me so get may hands on it this week - cant wait ( will seem a bit sad to you big boys on here... But I'm suited :!: )

Any comments
As I have said I am here to learn, not to profit, and to try and get a nice little collection together that I want, rather than its intrinsic value
Can anyone give me some pointers on this:

Sorry, what's the question? :?

I think it's about restoring? Bubble yellowing cannot be reversed.

 

[Michael Sith]

Thanks
Yes .... So the yellowing can't d anything about

Also just wanted a few facts as I'm learning and not seen the fig in the flesh so to speak;

This is ROTJ not tri logo so was it earlier than tri logo a did they run at the same time?
I have read there ar different staffs for the admiral one shorter than the other
What variant is this?
My son has paid around £15 for this.... Is it a good buy?

I quite like the admiral as a character and figure, just got a bit carried away
I know it's nothing to the big guys on here but for me I really like it and nice addition for me... So just wanted a bit of background on the fig and card as I said I'm here for the duration and want to learn whilst collecting

Thanks for your patience guys

What type of restoration help are you looking for? and as said...yellowing of bubbles is forever.

 

[PGowdy]

Yeah trilogo came out a little after ROTJ but they did run at the same time just trologo just joined in later.

£15 is a decent price for that Ackbar if the bubble is sealed.

 

[Michael Sith]

Thanks for that

Yep .. Get the yellowing thing now

Like I said no great shakes just wanted a bit of background on the figure, thanks for the feedback

Love the admiral too. Collect what ever you like, everyone has their own uniqueness to their collection. I kind of like the yellowing on the bubbles, to me it adds character. Having anything vintage Star Wars that's still sealed is awesome.

Peace

Cheers June .....feel that way too .....1980 s air trapped inside there!

Starting to get a feel for the figs I really like now ...so narrow down to

Admiral
Luke farm boy and bespin
Jawas
R2
Love the Gammys as well

Trying to put together a ROTJ loose run, just for display
Have boxed x wing and jabba s play set started on the loose figs.....
Then a focus its my start... But I know I will stray as well :roll:

Onwards!

Ha! That's one way of looking at it - 1980's air :lol: I doubt very much that is the literal case though. I prefer to look on it like the last person who touched the figure would have been a 1980's Kenner employee 8)

Im an old git. Late 70 s and early 80 s were my stomp years :lol:

Get what your saying though
