Another Palitoy VCJ.

[Palifan]

Nice to see another example of this figure even though it's been opened. It also looks like it may have some sticker wear to it which shows this was sold in a shop and the seller has had the other 11 up for sale now and recently in the same condition which I thought was interesting.

The price is high as I'm not sure with the figure removed from the deal if the card back and bubble is worth the asking amount (say 2K roughly), but who knows if there's someone out there after having this in their collection.

That is one real nice condition card too, that would look brilliant on display without the bubble split even being too obvious when it's held together.

Do agree though it does need to be a bit cheaper than that, but these days it wouldn't surprise me what someone would pay for it.

£3,500 and there isn't even a footer! :wink:

Seriously though, this is as rare as you like and the seller will probably shift it, even at that asking price. Where are you going to find another one in that condition?

Andy Davies is a top guy - met him a few times. (If it's the same one!)

Was one Palitoy Jawa cardback specifically for the VCJ? If not this is about £1800 too much imo

 

[Richard_H]

the bubble was, don't think the cardback is.

 

[Snaketibe]

That's spot on. The bubble is unique to the VCJ, but the cardback is a regular 12B.

 

[lejackal]

That is one expensive bubble

Amazing piece, would love that in my collection. Looks like it's sold. Out of interest, Does anyone have a clue how many known examples there are now? Think 2 sealed examples have been sold graded??

 

[mr_palitoy]

Half a dozen sealed and a dozen opened/resealed at this point at a guess.
