Comprehensive Guide to Baggies - Discussion (Hopefully)

[Cardbackkid]

Agree with the above post I've bought a couple of baggies over the last couple weeks and found this guide very helpful in what to look out for .

Just a quick mention on here to say that a new section has just been created for the Q.C sign off cards due to image space limitations, these have been moved from their previous location to their own section which can be found just above the final post on page 6, post 114.

I have also been going through & making a few additions & alterations over the past week or so & am slowly trawling through it all to get it up to date, most of the fakes in the main body of the guide have now also been removed & transferred to the correct section to tidy things up a bit, a few further sections still need to be added to both the comprehensive as well as the other 2 guides (Non Kenner & Kenner).

Please as always - if you have anything as yet undocumented, do get in touch so it can be looked into - many thanks!

Massively appreciated Frank, I refer to the guide as a bible for baggies!

 

[Frunkstar]

Thanks Mike appreciate the kind words & so glad it's of use for you.

You may want to have another look as I've just created a new section with previously never documented PBP baggies

 

[Michael Sith]

Just had a look ..very nice indeed!

PBP baggies that's a turn up and interesting addition to the baggie guide, there's a world within a world on this guide! Something new every time I take a look

 

[Frunkstar]

Thanks Mike, I still have a few sections to construct, slowly slowly but getting there

 

[Frunkstar]

New section just added to the comprehensive guide page 6 sections 116 & 117

This covers the Kenner replacement parts program "We Really Do Care"

 

[Frunkstar]

& another section now up - factory error baggies, more one for a bit of a look at what oddities are floating about rather then a serious reference, but something I've appreciated for a long time & wanted to cover in a a bit more detail, nice to have a section dedicated to the obscure.

Also a good few additions to the we really do care section

 

[Michael Sith]

The we really do care is a great addition the images of all the replacement packs of weapons is a sight !

The Dengar with 2 left arms is a great one on the error baggies !

Quite exciting news for the guide that I figured you'd be interested in hearing, over the last 3 days I have managed to add 3 new baggie classifications to the guide(s).

All are now updated on the comprehensive guide as well as full details on both the basic non kenner guide as well as the revised kenner guide.

ROTJ-m

Euro-m

Euro-n

I could not have done this without the ever helpful Matthieu Barthelemy
The ROTJ-m is the 500 figure shipping case baggie which was already shown, just never did get it's own classification
The Euro-m is the great new find & the Euro-n is one we already had shown, but a tiny image, thankfully a much larger/clearer image has now been added, this is the only known example to date, saying that it's the same story with the Klaatu Skiff, this really goes to show how insanely rare some of the non kenner issued baggies are.

The included ERG from the collection on the late Fabrice Furbeyre

Great stuff

A fairly extensive updates just gone on for vader baggie variations with 6 new additions added as well as another R2 SS, vader had by far the most variations in terms of the baggie types he was issued in bringing the total to date up to 24 types, sort of makes sense with the figure spanning all 3 films & never getting a sculpt update like other figures & his obvious poularity.

List to date -

Darth Vader 24

Palitoy-i (unsealed)
Plaitoy-k
Palitoy-m
Euro-b
Euro-c
Euro-e/A
Euro-g
SW-a (small font)
SW-b
SW-d (large font)
SW-d (small font)
SW-f
ESB-a (1st​ issue)
ESB-a (2nd​ issue)
ESB-c
ESB-d
ESB-e
ESB-f
ESB-i
ESB-h
ROTJ-a
ROTJ-f
ROTJ-j
ROTJ-m

Just had a mooch, great update Frank, some number of variations on the Vader, love the fact there are still new discoveries and there will be more to come
Fantastic work again..keep it coming

Yeah vader sure got a good run in baggies Mike, I think he shows up in more multi packs than any other figure to, the dark side was popular
