Added a Polish bootleg cardback. There's only one of these for all figures, but a couple of colour variations:-

The start of a new sub focus!

There are 2 types of German cardback. The first type has a V shaped pointy tab and has 'STAR WARS ACTION FIGURES Collect all 45 on the back. The second type has a U shaped rounded tab and the text missing on the back of the card. Almost all used cardbacks are the ones with the text missing. Of my almost complete run, only 1 is of the first type. A lot of MOCs are the first type, as this seems to be stock left over that Toy Toni used to make his fake MOCs.

Anyways, I picked up a first type for one of my many second types.

As well as the tab being different on this figure/card, its also says (Hoth Outfit) in brackets beneath Leia Organa. I guess that was more English text that was removed.

The backs show the English text that was removed.

This one has been a long long time coming.

It's only the Lobot to finish my German ESB run of 45 cards!

And just for good measure in alphabetical order!! Well done they look superb.

I thought about that when I laid them out. Could do a more traditional ordering in the morning in better light.

:lol:

Yer and I think if you wear your new magic t-shirt in the morning you won't have to think about it and the perfect traditional ordering will just happen :D
