Latest Acquisitions

Quite chuffed with this one. Boxed Palitoy first issue X-Wing. £40.

Liberated from a toy shop in Glasgow, was down for the day and decided to pop in for a look as I'd been told they had some vintage and it's so rare to see them in shops these days. Was stunned to see a few boxed complete vehicles and a boxed Yoda hand puppet as well as some seriously beat up loose figs.

X-Wing is a bit grubby but plan to upgrade it. It was complete though and even came with original box inserts. It's not perfect, but looks great on display and just love that box :D
 
Awesome Palitoys guys! 8) AT-AT Driver and X-Wing are both on my list. The X-Wing is a bargain!

Some nice Jedi mocs there to get started with 8)

Wow. Whereabouts is the shop? That's a cracking find.

That's a massive bargain - the inserts alone go for nearly 40 quid!
 
Hmm yeah the guy who owns that store is a u grader. He had a bunch of 12 backs with cut corners he u graded to get more money !

Each to their own but when I lived in Scotland I went to Scotsman models a few streets down. The shop is now closed but Stephen and Jason still do Collectormania!
I live in New Zealand now where there are few vintage collectors!
 
Palitoy X Wing was a BARGAIN. As said, the inserts are very sought after as they slightly different to the Kenner ones. I've seen a loose X Wing go for at tleast that. The hard part is the sticker/instruction sheet.
