Going a bit deep down the rabbit hole with this one, as I don't know if any of you boys collect vintage tickets (although I know Mark Daniels dabbles).

These are tickets to early UK cast & crew screenings. I'm not sure if another complete run of all 3 tickets exist, but you can see them in person at 'May The Toys Be With You' free exhibition at The Willis Museum, Basingstoke. Really pleased to have acquired these...

Very happy to add this cardback to my collection it has my local childhood shop price sticker on it ... the shop (Kerrisons) is still there to this day :)

Also note that the date on the sticker has 1987 so this must of been a clearance figure .

69p, even I had money for that in 87 and I was like 5 :lol:

Really cool that you've found one that originated from your local childhood shop, how it circulated around for all those decades and somehow found it's way to you is amazing. 8)

I got it off eBay and was only 20 odd miles away so still pretty local , I asked the seller if he had anymore but this was is only one .

Ah so it didn't travel too far then, but still epic how you've managed to get one that survived. :)

I don't often post on here, but I should make more of an effort, as there are so many quality items that are limelighted each and every day.

Just thought I'd share a couple of pieces that landed today.
Firstly a nice Palitoy 30 Lando UKG 90

Secondly, a bit of a grail piece for me, as I never really thought I'd get this in today's market.

Star Wars Millennium Falcon afa q80

Just a bloody shame the case got damaged in transit :cry:

Absolute quality mate 8) To me the SW Falcon is the ultimate example :!: Yes yes I know my Forum name but this is one of those rare exceptions where I take Kenner over Palitoy :!: :!: Star Wars boxed Falcon, LOVE IT 8)

Bloody nice top condition 30 Lando too :wink:

Picked a couple of bits up at the new Swindon Toy Fair

MPC kit in sealed box

7CBD7667-DD47-446D-8C07-56DAC91F3993.jpeg

A little something for the Han focus; same base figure but different coloured eyes and of course different outfit

V nice pick ups there 8) Love the Indy doll, lovely box 8) The doll has an amazing likeness to Harrison just the same as the 12in Han Doll 8)
 
My most recent addition.

I always thought Han Bespin was the best vintage Han Solo figure. I was surprised how hard it seems to find a card-fresh mint loose one, he usually has paint rubs to the hair on the many I have seen.

Managed to snag this beauty last weekend.

I hope you're sitting down for this announcement.......I've only gone and completed a figure run that I set out to buy :shock: :lol:
Alright it's only the 6 ESB bounty hunters but it's quite an achievement for me.

They look in really great condition, would look nice in my collection, let me know when they go up for sale. :wink:
Only joking. :?
 
The bounty hunters always look so good next to each other. That is a super clean Han, love it.

That 3 pack is next level, looks so good, love the packaging design.
 
I wasn't sitting down, my day is now ruined :lol: well done on getting them.

I still love seeing those old game cassettes, never fails to give me warm nostalgic feelings. :)
 
I've been after a Biker Scout for a while, so very please with this recent pick up.

Awesome Biker Scout, in nice clean condition.

One of my favourite carded figures, and the very first one I ever bought back in 2001.
 
I've had a quiet couple of months but I did pick up a couple of items I find really interesting. First up Steve Sansweet's Tomart's Price Guide. Never knew there was so much Star Wars stuff beyond the toys out there! Holy moly! It really is an invaluable guide.

It's also fascinating to see what's gone up in price and what's stayed the same since 1994. For example from the pages posted you can see that you can pick up MOCs from the Droids range from £15 but my haven't they rocketed. R2D2 Pop-up. Lightsaber was £25 but now you'd be lucky to get it for 10 times that amount. On the other hand Han Solo with Carbonite Chamber was £65 and that's about the same price today.

I've got hours of perusing ahead of me. :D

Second up is some Star Wars Blueprints. I know a few of you have these but they're still really cool and worth another look at. Can be picked up relatively cheaply if you're interested in that kind of thing.
