What a tool !!

Apart from his taping vintage MOCs and accusing me of being the only "clown" who was not able to remove the tape properly, the guy is rather nice and helping to be honest... ;)

Wow. Wouldn't have liked to have been the guy with the $1800 yak face if it turned up with tape all over it.

Simon, I thought you got the pick of the bunch with that Leia hoth. Nice one.

Cheers Ben, I'm very pleased with her. My favourite is the AT-AT Driver though. He's in amazing condition and has a KayBee price sticker marked 79c then crossed out and "2/1.00". Two for $1, which is about 50p back in the day. The mind boggles! Been discussing this with Iain. It's amazing how these bargain bin figures shipped across the globe seem to have survived better than our own locally produced and sold Trilogos.

Vectis seem to be getting faster posting items out. Won these 2 cheeky little Palitoy numbers at the last auction for a great price. Like all Palitoys, they look the nuts.

Very nice Palitoys indeed.
 
Stunning picks ups, love the Palitoy Moc's and the tri-logo Paploo.

Here's a few things that have arrived this week, still waiting for a couple of more things but gonna wait now until after Christmas before making any more purchases.

First up a great unused Kenner B-Wing, box is good as these are normally wrecked.

Next is an awesome Tie Interceptor I got from plantman (andy), kenner Taun Taun, 12" Ben (missing his saber, anyone got a spare? :) ) and the elusive belt and bombs to complete my 15" IG88.

And finally, my favourite item to arrive is this awesome 'Star Wars is Forever' poster, gonna get this framed at some point.

Never have I seen MOCs for sale near where I live. I spotted the Yoda in the window of a market stall. He wanted £300. Every MOC was £300. He has a ESB Kenner Luke Bespin, a Meccano square Jawa, R2 sensor scope and a Jedi Bib. The first day I purchased the Yoda. He told me it was the only palitoy. But the next day I went back and gladly took the Han Hoth too.

Wish I could find items like these in the wild, I did see an imperial shuttle (with knackered box) in a shop on the Isle of Wight but the guy wanted £500 which seemed waaay too much!
 
Rich you're find is amazing, i'm so chuffed for you. Karma has definitely played a part here. You do so much for the community and you are such a lucky jammer.
I need a serious catch up with this thread so i'll post another Jez monster post tomorrow hopefully.
 
Just got the last of my little green beasties arrive today as an ESB-C baggie to complete the known run.

Rich, that 30 back Yoda is.....is.....oof. Just on its own it would be incredible, but to have found it in a market. In 2015. Just bloody amazeballs. Hell, the Han Hoth is incredible enough, but the Yoda..... Great find, mate.
