Got to love the Palitoy !

Great collection going there Lawrence

 

[MarkG]

Two more mocs today. Picked up from Brighton Comic Con.

Palitoy 65bk Luke FB and Meccano Jawa.

 

[timbo72]

Man I love that LFB moc, might have to start looking for one

 

[stormcab]

I would say those 5 cards are fake. Bit like a fake bank note. Just needed to glance at them for fraction of a second to see something is off with the colours.

Lovely Palitoy bags

My latest pick ups, chuffed with all of them. Thanks to the guys I bought them off.

 

[BruceW]

Great pic ups, guys. Loving those Palis, Richard!

Haven't picked up too much lately. I recently upgraded and added some vintage Japanese bottle caps to the "oddball" section of the Leia collection.
I think the bottle caps are a very cool and overlooked area of vintage collecting.

Top rows are the old ones, bottom rows are the new:

And this one is my favorite, as the image is the same as the Princess Leia card back art:

But my most recent and major purchase is a Kenner 12A Princess Leia Organa MOC!

Card has a bit of wear, and is slightly curved, but the figure and bubble are in great shape. And she looks great in that GW Acrylic case!
So, that leaves me with 5 more Leia MOCs to complete the Kenner run. Still need 12B, 12D (32 sticker) and three of the crazy Boba Fett sticker offer variations. The hunt continues!

Cheers!

Exactly one year after my friend Ross Barr teased me with a picture of him and Kim D Simmons holding his photo sample Jabba playset, I received today the said photo sample that Kim was kind enough to sell to me and that Tom D helped me have cased and graded (I mean, no graded...) by AFA. Tom also spotted that the cardboard box was a photo sample too.
I did not care about the grade but I wanted to have the playset custom cased and labelled as a photo sample, and I think it displays very nicely that way! Needless to say that I am stoked to add this photo sample to my Jabba focus

Couple of recent additions for me. 10 years ago these were relatively easy to find, but not these days and not in good condition. That's 8 45a's now.

I've had some in the past from Australia. A load must have been shipped over there. You've done well to find one though.
