Darth Vader large plastic 3D shop display?

[Star Wares]

This has been in my collection for a few years now but I am thinking about letting it go as I have no wall space to display properly & so it just sits on the sofa in my spare room...

I'm sure there are a few Vader focus collectors that would have it pride of place. Any idea what a fair price would be for it?

It measures a huge 2ft high & is just over 2ft wide.

Here's a picture (Gammy Guard pictured for scale)



It's not like the others I have seen on eBay over the years & seems to have been made in England (going by the telephone number & company name built into the border)

Thanks in advance!

Similar, but missing the embossed text...

Thanks for the link mate, yeah that is very similar... The plastic that mine is made from is very hard, maybe it was even some kind of mold?!

Maybe a different plastic but looks like a vac-formed piece from the photos.

The company that made it still exists and the phone numbers match...

Based on that I'd stick with a trade fair sample/demo.

Yeah I think you're right. Nice detective work mate! I thought about ringing them up but they might think I've gone crazy.

Anyone know what it's worth as a trade fair sample?

I sold one last year which I thought was worthless for £30.
