couple of cracking mocs

 

[Mini99]

Great pair of Jedi MOCs, and as they are Palitoy nice clear bubbles.
I don't collect Jedi MOCs but Leia is really nice, Matt has sold some stunning MOCs on FB this week.
I only missed out on a Luke Jedi Tri Logo by minutes myself.

Grading is now beyond me, but when I got back into the hobby I was not confident to decide what was original and what wasn't, so did have a few loose bits graded.
My advice would now be to educate yourself in what's what, before thinking of grading, it's more fun and involving.
Remember grading is only an opinion at that moment in time...and as humans we are all infallible... :?

Those palitoy's are very ,very nice.

Wanted to post this one as I reckon it was a good score, and those have been few and far between for me lately...

Euro 3.50 (!) off eBay from a seller in the Canary Islands, of all places. Missing one of the boulders, but I happen to have a spare that came with another Ewok thing so in my hands, it's complete.

Cheers,

d.

[theforceuk]

I got this large 48 piece vme shipping container today. Goes well with the smaller 12 piece container I already had. Anyone got 60 misb bilogo vme to fill them :lol:

 

[dienstuhr]

Great score on the glider, cheaper than when they first came out. Nice MOCs as well.

Thanks! Can't see it in the pic, but it has a Palitoy "Coalville, Leicester" sticker on the top as well

 

[MrGudz]

Just added this rather lovely Radar Laser Cannon to my collection. It's still sealed on the top.

Very nice! I'm pretty sure all Ewok Gliders sold in the UK had that sticker slapped on the box somewhere.

Loving that Chewie Si - a beauty, and some serious mini-rig love going on. Like buses.

After a bit of a hiatus, here's my second die cast in a week. A Sears Landspeeder mailer, I've not seen many of these boxes with most seemingly J C Penney.

 

[Cazza]

Great pick ups!

Nice Jedi MOCs, Si. Cracking Chewie and the Palitoy Leia Boussh is one of my fav ROTJ MOCs.

Absolute bargain, Dallas! :shock:

Good score on the shipper, Alisdair.

VERY nice Radar Canon, Si! 8)

Andy, well done on getting hold of that Landspeeded mailer- very nice indeed!

That's nice. I've not been into sealed items much up to now but recently whenever I see a sealed mini rig I feel very tempted to look for one.

A bit of an acquisition/loft discovery post this one (hopefully not against the rules)

Got hold of these this week...

1979 TESB Crew T-Shirt

1983 Temple Of Doom Crew T-Shirt

1982 JDC (Joe Dunton Cameras) Revenge Of The Jedi Camera Crew T-Shirt

Went into the loft to pack them away and found this, a cardigan knitted by my grandmother in 1980.

Amazing T-Shirts but the cardigan as absolutely priceless

[SublevelStudios]

The cardigan is by far and away the coolest thing I've seen in ages. Awesome.

 

[coomber75]

Awesome t shirt but that card!!!

 

[coomber75]

Awesome t shirt but that card!!!

 

[AndyPreston]

I can't argue with the others, the shirts are great (especially the Joe Dunton Cameras, never seen that before and a Revenge item as well!), but the cardigan is the business. Great find!

 

[bosk70]

I'm sure there's a bit of stretch in the cardi i'd defiantly wear that down the pub , nice t shirts

 

[dienstuhr]

We have reached PEAK CARDIGAN!!!

 

[Cazza]

Amazing cardi!!! Love the T-Shirts too 8)

Don't tend to go for ROTJ MOCs, but the Gammo Guard was one of my favourite ROTJ figures as a kid. This one came up for sale (ex shop stock) and I couldn't resist. Thanks Matt F 8)

 

[Ruby2511]

Nice tee shirts as well

Good score on the moc Cazza

One of my favourite characters as a kid also, think it was because it was such a hefty figure and has a cool axe

 

[TheJabbaWookie]

Great cardigan Simon. What a super memory to treasure

 

[TK-7785]

I've not had much in the way of toy related acquisitions lately, but a couple of new autographs from our man Lando and Mr Fortuna.

Also, a bit of a vintage prop related result at the local car boot the other weekend, a 70s Tupperware tub and lid. You might think that a strange one but the lids from these were used for the headrests in the two rear seats of the Falcon cockpit and also as a part to the Sandtrooper backpacks.

I can finally start building my full size Falcon replica now! :lol:

 

[spoons]

That's a great link TK - nice score. I'd never noticed the headrest parts of backpacks before

Nice Gammy too Andy, and what a Cardigan!

 

[TheJabbaWookie]

I've been keeping a keen eye open for a mint 1977 First 12 Mail Away Figure Display Stand at a good price. No such luck so far. But my searches did throw up this Mint in original mailing box ESB DIsplay Arena Complete with instructions and catalogue, which is also a thing of beauty and happy to add to my collection.
