What a tremendous pick up that VCJ is! Huge congratulations!!!

Ruby, nice market pick up. Always good to find something in the 'real world'.

Really like all the more oddball stuff being found as well. S1dow, love the books and transfer sets.

Benny, that card has got to be one of the best- she looks amazing!

Andy, the Dairylea stuff is fab- been after these myself. So hard to find!

TheJabbaWookie, that ESB stand is absolutely superb!!!

Got a couple of small bits recently: picked up a couple of diecast bits from gammoguard and a minty Stormie from ebay.

Finally, managed to get hold of a full set of Battlestar Galactica Shreddies scenes. Know they're not SW, but I hope people will appreciate them. Arguably harder to find than the SW ones and often go for crazy prices. Got these for a smidge over £30, so really chuffed. They will make up part of my extended childhood focus.

Nice pick ups guys! Bought this jawa recently, 41back. It's a bit different, it comes with the Han blaster instead of Jawa one

I actually haven't seen a photo of one of these. Thanks for sharing

Some gum stickers from Turkey made by Kent I believe. Don't know much more about them. I know this isn't a complete set, so if anyone has any I don't have I'm open to trade.

 

[Jaxxon]

This arrived this morning. Dinged card and a small crack in the bubble but good enough for me.

POTF Security Scout

Love the Galactica transfers! I haven't seen these since the 70s but they bring back memories alright, I must have had them along with the SW ones. Great find!

Probably shouldn't post these here as had them 40 years and not Star Wars, but funny I should find these whilst rummaging through a box of my old stuff right after seeing your post of BG scenes...

Are you sure?! That would be amazing- don't have this one. PM coming...

Mail call! Had these in over the past few days. Really pleased to get the Westbrook birthday card which is the last one needed for my sealed set. Also an ILM crew patch from Ep 1, and two more Dairylea labels - I'm half way there on those now. But the pick of the bunch is the Empire Day promotional postcard - other than the badges, any Empire Day material is very hard to come by and I'm delighted to have it. NFS.

 

[TheJabbaWookie]

Super excited about my latest purchase. In fact I think it's the most excited I've been. Finally got my hands on a First 12 Action Figure Display Stand and at a good price too. I haven't been able to afford the space or money to get cabinets or a bespoke display for my loose figures so this is an ultra cool next best thing and goes well with the way my collection is shaping up.

It came with a complete set of figures (not all complete) and I didn't really need them, but I totted up their sell on value and put in a bid based on that to get the display stand at a good price.

The figures turned out to be super nice, many near mint. But imagine my surprise when both the R2 solid dome and Darth Vader turned out to be MADE IN TAIWAN with correct accessories. I couldn't see the saber and was described as broken tip but it's still there just a bit crooked. I'm keeping these two for sure. The others in the photo are from my collection.

Still buzzing.

Delighted for you about the two Taiwan figures as bonus. Congrats!

If you haven't thought of it already, get a preorder done now to collect at the event - doubt Christian will bring those as general stock on the day.

[chrisfnx]

Nice trilogo fetts and the stand is great!

 

[Jaxxon]

Just dug these pyjamas out for another thread. Thought I'd put them here.

I believe they were from Marks and Spencer but I may be wrong. They may have been from a catalogue like Freemans or Littlewoods.
