Latest Acquisitions

Amazing purchases! So much fantastic paperwork, oddball stuff, MOCs (especially Palitoy)... and as for that 3-pack, Jez... wow!

Few more army builders for the Rebel Soldier and Rebel Commando. Both the RS are actually very nice examples. A Yoda handpuppet as it was sillly cheap and I've never had one and a MoC... all picked at Shepton Mallet toy fair

Great pick ups man. Love that Rebel Commando!

Finally added a priority piece to my Rebel Commando focus. The ever elusive and existence debated Kenner ROTJ 65A China COO molded face Rebel Commando. I was elated to find this piece on eBay. And it happened to be on a day eBay had a 15% off promotion. I got this from the same seller that was mentioned in episode 49 of The Vintage Rebellion podcast - Nasina8. It was a BIN price and was located in Canada. The picture was a bit blurry and with some investigative help from fellow Rebel Commando focus collectors, Stephen Ward and Justin Rowland, we determined it was the real deal. I snatched it up and now I can check it off my list unless I want to upgrade since this has the pop scraped off the back(bubble still sealed) Now I need to find some more foreign carded examples. Fingers crossed. I already have a Palitoy 65A molded face Rebel Commando MOC w/double stem bubble. Always hunting

Not been on here for a while, that thing called work gets in the way plus had to look for a new car as mine is getting to be very unreliable :x :x

Some great pick ups guys, love the die cast 8)

I am going to Dorset next Friday for a well earned break and was wondering if any of the members knows of any decent places down there that sells vintage SW :?:

Thanks Russ

Just picked up this Canadian Luke X-Wing for my focus. Big thanks to Jez for this one, he not only found it for me in an obscure Facebook group, but also passed on it for his own focus to let me have it. Very much appreciated mate.

Managed to double my SW offerless 20/21 backs this week with these two little beauts. Been holding off for the right prices for a while, then 2 come along like buses. The bubble is beautiful on R5D4 and it's a short V Power Droid too.

About time I posted something in here- managed to get a couple of cut bubble Palitoys recently, along with a Palitoy ESB Luke Skywalker. Also got hold of a couple more items for my childhood focus: Palitoy ROTJ competition leaflet, TV Times and Shreddies advert.
