Cool pre production art Bram and love the white tie fighter

Bout time I got my lazy arse into action and add a few pictures :lol:

First up my Vectis (over priced :shock: ) lot -

Beautiful Luke Gunner and Yoda, very nice Jawa and a absolute crap Hoth Stormy (should've looked closer before bidding on that one :? )

Kieran - hang on one moment - is that HST a 'Made in China' 65A back? If it is you've got something that wasn't released in the US and up until a couple of years ago was only known in single figures. More have surfaced recently from the UK but it's still one of the hardest cardback variations for the HST out there.

Cheers,
Christian

Thanks for the information Christian, very much appreciated. I've checked the figure and it is indeed a 65 back made in China although the overall condition isn't exactly great. Any idea how much these tend to go for? (I know wrong thread to be asking in )

Nice Luke Gunner card. Just need him and Chewie myself to complete the jedi variant picture card set!

Yes.....the great thing is his legs and arms are pure white. This guy is awesome. Lot of guys want to bleach things like this...shame on them...he is sexy.

The yellowing has nothing to do with smoking....unless I was smoking when I bought it.

No problem mate As for value - in the early days when this cardback combo was 'discovered' by an old skool UK collector (Danny Whitely) our US cousins, especially those who focused on 65 back Jedi MOCs or HSTs, were paying big $$$ (IIRC around $500) - nowadays as they are more common than first anticipated and most focus collectors have acquired one they don't command such a high premium. However, a very nice example would be around £150 ($250) IMHO so a small premium on a quality 77bk ROTJ HST.

Cheers,
Christian

Not much to shout about....but have not made a sw purchase in yonks!
Do not collect baggies as a rule...but anything to do with the first 21 always catches my interest.

Jedi masters, wish I had family that would surprise me with MOC's on my birthday.

Here's my latest in my Empire run. Down to 8 now.

45b Palitoy 4-LOM. Cards creased down the centre but I'm more than happy with him. May upgrade at some point but he's been a tough one to find at reasonable-ish price.

A little nervous on Palitoy since Toy Toni as I haven't owned any before but after reading through the helpful threads on what card backs Toni had and a bit of reassurance from Jason pulled the trigger.

 

[Michael Sith]

Lovin the trilogo s Chris congrats, the FX bubble is really clean ...great pressies bud

 

[Stuart Skinner]

Lovely palitoy moc Dan, sweet

My oddball sideline continues, picked up these jelly purses from 1983.
Think they only did eight characters from what I can find out but clearly in different colours.
Some are in nice condition and others are slightly battered but I'm loving these oddball items.

 

[Michael Sith]

They are cool, hasn't Grant got some of these?

I think so, he's got pretty much everything he can get his hands on
