It appears to be a Palitoy or possibly a GM card. Could be a particularly tough one to find, hence the high price?

I thought so. Will let you know when it arrives.

Palitoy card.... 45b??? I have no idea on the price of cardbacks but I thought the walking Luke Bespin was the rarest of the Luke Bespin?

Just another luke cardback to me, but some guys are real into the back of the card....20 back ...a...45b....12c......It goes on...only thing for me is the fronts are identical on most of them. To each his own I guess.

30a is one of the most sought after as it is the alternate photo and the debut card for Palitoy Luke Bespin.

Just depends on if you are buying cards for the sake of having a card or you really do know what variations are rare or what the card means to you.

I bought a Leia Hoth Trilogo card with a UK price sticker for over £15 - ordinarily I wouldn't pay that for a backer but it was something I didn't think would come around again (it was the variation I needed for my mini focus and I had never seen another before)

The week after a nicer cleaner card without stickers and just a common card variation sold for about a fiver lol.

I know sometimes it can be a little worrying to contemplate losing out on something that might not show up again for another year or so and people bid to make sure that doesn't happen. And if you are into variations sometimes a cardback is the only proof of it being a confirmed MOC so cards can really fly depending on what they are and who is bidding.

I'd love a sealed one. I have all others, from 30a through to trilogo. Even got figure variants. Jsut need a 45b

 

[tiefighterboy]

See gary is into the back number thing. Anything beyond 12, 20 and 21 and I have lost interest.

 

[mr_palitoy]

And here she is, a 45b palitoy luke bespin which is easily the rarest of the palitoy variations for this card. Whereas I've seen maybe a dozen 30a over the years, this is the first 45b I've seen.

Here's the front:-

And here's the mirror pic to prove the back is palitoy:-

And here it is completing my run of palitoy luke bespin cardbacks:-
