Iain's MOC Collection - UPDATED 13/07/13 - Last Page

[Joe]

I've just noticed you have a mixture of Kenner and Palitoy figures in your ROTJ run, was that the plan from the start or just how it went as you started picking them up? I thought you were doing a Kenner only run so it's a bit of a surprise (but a cool one) to see the odd Palitoy in there!

 

[itfciain]

To be honest my plan was never to collect one specific set of cards (Palitoy or Kenner) it was just to get them in as good as condition as possible and hit the every figure on every card. The problem has come with the different makes/backs as I a loathe to let a card go when I don't have a duplicate (I have the same problem with loose - hence I have about 500 odd of them). With the cards I can't really afford to do that -although I do have about 38 extra ROTJ cards.

God knows what I would do with the Trilogos if I ever got my head around the different varients :wink:

Good for me that you don't care about Tri variants yet then

Will you be doing a similar "spread" soon for your Trilogos? :mrgreen:

Hopefully, when a certain set of packages arrives :wink:

Holy potatoes! And I thought my loosies were getting in decent numbers with about 170... fair play mate. Truly magnificent collection Iain, I've looked through these a few times now, jaw dropping to see so many together.

Thanks for all the kind words

Just got my R5 in this morning so thought I would post up the Star Wars pictures - missing Han, Leia, Greedo, Walrusman, Power Droid and of course Boba - but happy with these so far. The Hammerhead has been encased and looks great - it was failed by AFA because someone stuck some tape over the sticker damage !

 

[Lee77]

Great stuff Iain. An awesome sight, seeing all the Rotj cards laid out. Good luck on the Leia. Every time I've seen one they seem to go for crazy money!
The 12/21 back run is awesome too mate.
What are you gonna do when you finish the star wars carded. Playsets?!!!
See you on Sunday buddy.

 

[Vernon]

Word fail me :shock:

I have somehow missed your showcase Iain How could I miss it it's bloody huge and jaw-dropping - all those Moc's what a fantastic haul over the various cardbacks. You have an amazing collection.

I do have a Star Wars Leia 21 back (no offer) unpunched UKG acrylic case graded overall 75% I am willing to let her go if you are interested as she does not sit in with my collection only kept her as she is a beautiful piece and a classic in my opinion. PM me if you are interested and can send pics etc,or would trade for any trilogo's you have that I want.

Paul :wink:

 

[steesh]

Wow...all I can say really. I can now see what you are spending your profits on from all the wheeling and dealing :lol: .

 

[itfciain]

Cheeky little update with my new SW cards - just the three needed now, Han, Leia and Boba

I've got all the in acyrilc and they look ace - so job this year is to do that for the other 300 or so :lol:

 

[Jez]

Congratulations Iain, a truly marvellous collection.
I'll keep my eye out for you

 

[Joe]

Looking good Iain, I wonder if you could ever get a picture of all your carded figures in the one shot??

I'd actually said that to Jez before I moved in to the new place - I could have just covered the floor of the lounge in MOCs !

One day I'll have to have a go at that

 

[Caswellbot]

Looking good Iain. Good to see a fee palitoy sprinkled in for good measure. They will look great in acrylic and a grouo shot at some point is a must. Keep it up. Chris

 

[Dark Sith Lord]

They look stunning Iain! :shock: Will keep my eyes peeled for you mate :mrgreen:

 

[Grant_C]
