I've made a start on 12 and 20 backs but its slow and expensive progress!

****ING expensive! As my bank manager can testify. :lol:

Cheers chaps.

Yep to first question and no to second, I expect it will be near impossible to locate the whip but hopefully I will, I think I could just afford about afford it

Lee, do you have any links as to the history of that figure i.e. the significance, who he is etc as it looks very interesting and i bet it wasn't easy to come by.

 

[Darth Wensleydale]

Did you get it through someone on RS?

Makes up a bit for missing out on the Mungo eh?

 

[Bollux]

[lee gray]

Got it off a proto and commtech collector called brandon vise who runs some websites, its coming with a COA and checked it out before purchasing from other prot collectors

It is a first shot chituhr from the second series of droids that was never produced, had to sell quite a few pieces to pay for it though

Lee, did you miss out on Mungo then?

 

[edd_jedi]

got this through today:

it's a canadian "walking photo" luke bespin. this is quite strange, as you probably know in america they changed the "walking" photo to the "looking" photo after just the first ESB card back, but the 41 back is a relatively late ESB card so god knows why they kept the original photo so long in canada.

as you can see it's in pretty ropey condition and has the POP missing, but i've never seen another and it didn't cost the earth either (no jabba it's not an opener :lol: )

 

[jabbawokkie]

if there ever was a card to open thats one :lol: :lol:

atleast you cant say that with my one as for the luke card though....you said it, i usualy type nice card as a reply but i cant say that this time, nice luke though.

 

[Bollux]
