Love the radio controlled Fett I mean R2. :wink:

Nice stuff though!

 

[tigerham]

After waiting over a month and a half for an auction to ship me what I won I finally got these in today.

Nice R2's. Do they work?

 

[apack7229]

Thanks guys. I do have a special Fett coming in though. :wink: The r2 with the box turns on and the head moves and the wheels in one leg but the other leg is stuck. The beater one doesn't turn on or run so I'll have to take them apart to try to get them running again.


Does anyone have a guide to disassemble them?

I'm guessing you could use parts from the non-functioning one to fix the leg on the other one if you're lucky.

 

[apack7229]

I think the leg gears are just frozen I don't think they are broken but I'll have to see when I open it up.

 

[tigerham]

Thanks apack. Sounds great.

So, I put a max bid in on an item and my phone decided to die at the crucial time. Ended £20 higher than my max bid. :S But I was helping an old lady at the time so that was priceless.

This came in the post today. A mint UP Tsukuda Chief Chirpa MOC from Japan despite the most yellow bubble I have ever seen, lol. Still, it adds to the vintage and variation. :wink:

Included were some Japanese sweets which I thought was a nice touch. Great seller.

Also came today were some top quality acrylic cases from Christian (GW Acrylics). Big thank you for those.

Here's a meagre offering from me in the shape of a tiny piece of blue sticky paper!

I've got an ongoing run of cardbacks which has been improved upon since I started collecting. Among it's 'rules' are to have at least one of every type of card sold in the UK. I've been after one of these forever. The Palitoy 41back with the blue label covering the usual 'with figures' error beside the Star Destroyer Playset.

It has been slotted in.

Quality find. Embarrassed to say I didn't even know they existed! (Hurries off to cabinets to check 41 backs.....)

:lol: Love it. Ree-Sees! That's one dark bubble apack so I stand corrected. That's beyond yellow, lol. Maybe I'll go for the darkest bubble I can find!

Ha, Ha - he had to - otherwise he can't see anything.

Yes, a great addition, the blister might have a "slight yellowing", but the card itself looks fantstic with fresh colours. Congrats!

Thanks Stefan and yes the card is in great shape as I can never be 100% sure by the photos so a nice surprise.

Really smart bag lejackal. Looks in great condition too.

Got this xerox coin design Tom Derby is selling from an old kenner guy. Meccano for comparison.

 

[edd_jedi]

Very cool. I was tempted by those but just couldn't stomach paying that kind of money for what was effectively a photocopy. It is cool though and will no doubt hold its value.

Thanks Edd! I thought that too, but then I remembered we collect plastic and cardboard. So xerox was not that far a leap.

 

[palitoyjunky]

After letting most of my 30 backs go last year am quite chuffed to have got a few again with this being the latest;

 

[palitoyjunky]

Also glad to have finally got a 41 back I have been after for sometime;

 

[SublevelStudios]
