Great squiddys Lionel! 8) looking fab in those cases mate.

@ Grant - yes mate I know, there is also a pack that came with the troop transporter, but not got to that bit yet, I plan to do another section on anomalous other baggies/bagged items after I have dealt with MP's & special offer items etc.

But please fire away buddy, photos always appreciated buddy.
 
Don't I know, I would almost sell a kidney for that one

From what I know so far there are 2 confirmed example known, this one was bought as an empty box & is being put together, I would kill for the chance of just an empty box though, I bet there are more locked away in black hole collections though, sadly no squid heads in it though buddy :lol:
 
frank i have to thankyou again mate :wink: , to see all these mailers / multipacks in one place is quite amazing :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
 
Yeah its so nice to see so many in one place, just wait till I'm done, should with luck be the largest collection of documented & photographed MP's in one place ever (fingers crossed)

I do NEED anyone who is willing & has multi packs in there collection that are not on the guide to provide photos so I can add them to the matrix as it would be great to get them all covered, but that will never happen unless we all pull together to make it happen!!
 
LMK if you need a pic of an opened blue snag/greedo mailer to add to the sealed one you have.
 
Thanks Liam, appreciated buddy!

Rather sizable update just done to the guide in term of new additions to the individual baggies, though you will have to flick through to see, all the ones just added will soon be shown in the L.A thread so you know what to look out for.
 
Lots more baggies just added to the guide, I know it may seem I am slacking in terms of getting on with the multi-packs, but life has been far to much all go for me of late & I am struggling to find time to add more re the multi packs, both my PC's going down at the same time is just the tip of the iceberg, but I will get back to it soon as I am able, plenty of Palitoy-k baggies just added though

Hi Frank

I have this Yoda baggie I got recently and would appreciate any thoughts you might have if you don't mind. I thought it was an ESB-c till I had it here as it was folded over in the pictures but now I can't find this type in your guide so don't really know what to think. It looks and feels legit to me and the seals look very similar to our euro IG-88 baggies, the text also looks the same colour as my Palitoy Jawa? I think these Yoda variants with the EPMs are mainly found on European cards to but I'm not sure about that.

Hey Frank, I am new to the forums and was directed to you through a Facebook group regarding a Yak Face I have in a baggie. This one does not match either of the 2 versions that I have seen before. I have owned it since the early 90s(92-93). I tried to PM you but I am too new to these forums and I can't access that function yet. Please post here or email me if possible. PM me for my email address and I will send you pics when I get off work today.

Thanks,
Frank Ferro
 
OMG so sorry for not posting earlier Scott, that looks like a legit baggie & good heatseals from what I can tell, but to date a baggie/figure combo I have not seen before, it would be a ESB-d baggie, so a great find!, may well be worth sending in to UKG for authentication with it being a new find just to be sure.

@ Ferro - have sent you a pm with my email addy for photos

No worries Frank, great that you think its legit too and I'll defo get it to Steve at some point to be sure 8)
 
Extensive updates on the guide done on the single baggies & more being added as & when I get a mo guys, wish I had more time on my hands as I really am champing at the bit to get more done on the guide, its always at the back of my mind & needs getting to, but all the checking & cross referencing & compiling of photos etc is hugely time consuming, but don't panic, I have not forgot, just up to my neck in other stuff.
 
:shock: Frank...this is a stellar piece of work!

Personally I don't own a Baggie, but these are mouthwatering to look at, absolutely superb.

The multipacks are awesome, and something I wasn't aware of, or seen, 10 packs, 16 packs!
Just superb

Great work ,...informative, clear and concise, and AWESOME!

Top work buddy
 
Glad you like it Mike, you have to get a baggie mate, everyone needs at least one bit of baggied goodness.

Right bit of a major update to the individual baggies again, this time something special with not one but 2 new Kenner baggie types not untill now known, both the V1 & V2 are internal baggie, I am presuming ment for carding as they are plain no text bags which in some cases are folded over obscuring the view of the figure, so they were never designed for onward sale, I was very luck to have been informed about these popping up on ebay stateside by a friend there who also kindly bid on them on my behalf, luckily due to them being a to date unknown baggie type, they for the most part flew under the radar & I got a cracking deal on them, I did not do this lightly though with my friend having some good connections managed to confirm the sellers story of his grandmother working in the shipping department of Kenner for a number of years & over time building up a huge cache of baggies, which the grandson has now after her death been selling off.

Sadly i was not able to secure either of the quality control unaged sample multipacks he listed for sale as they went for mega monies :| along with these he had a great many standard Kenner baggies.

Some info on his Grandmother -

The grandmother's name (kenner employee) was Jeanne Yvonne Sexton. She worked for Kenner for over 30 years in 'shipping' - unknown capacity. According to her her obituary she passed in 1994 at age 65 in Hamilton County, Ohio.

Both types are very similar with thick tape folded baggies, the material type is the discernable difference, with the V1 having really thick plastic whilst the V2 is much thinner/softer feeling.
