Great find Frank- thats a rare one.

 

[jedi_masters]

Wow Frank that is an awesome piece. How much does one of those in that condition go for??

 

[Spookedhippie]

Good god, congrats dude, that x wing is amazing!

 

[x-pack]

Lovely x-wang. Nice pick up 8)

 

[8bitaaron]

Great x-wing Frank, congratulations on getting your hands on it!

 

[Caswellbot]

Cracking SO X-Wing Frank! Glad you finally tracked one down. 8)

 

[Frunkstar]

Yeah to say I am over the moon is an understatement, got the SO Tie one end of a display shelf with the SO X wing at the other & I keep looking at them think - no way, no fricking way, never thought I would be lucky enough to ever own even one of them, but patience & chipping bits of the block bit by bit has paid diffidence in the long run, been paying for these for over 8 months bit by bit as the seller was good enough to let me pay that way thankfully or I would never have owned one.

As for cost I am not 100% Chris as I bought quite a few items off the guy, but it was over a thousand bucks for sure :shock: but for me its worth it as its right up there in lights as far as baggie collecting goes & is my holy grail, only one other item in baggie terms that I don't yet have is IMO on par with it & I will be lucky if I ever see that in the flesh let alone own one, but you just never know what the future holds so I am keeping everything crossed, after all if someone told me last year that I would have a woolies 8 pack or a SO X wing I would have thought they were talking a load of ****, glad you all like it & thanks for all the very kind comments its appreciated guys.

& Lee you are bang on the money, I do have another pin head han in the SW-a baggie, 2 others as a matter of fact, which is really odd as he is like one of the rarest baggies out there & one I was hunting for over 5 years till I managed to get my hands on one, now I have 3 & sold my graded example earlier this year - like bloody buses I tell you, I now have 3 of the 4 known (or should I say unknown) pin head han baggie types (SW-a/b & d) & was just offered another SW-d one this week from a respected US baggie collector, only the 2nd I have ever seen - buses I tell you, buses! :lol:

So if anyone is looking for a pin head han baggie, I is ya huckleberry!

The palitoy flyer/leaflet is also a gret little item I am really pleased with even though it seems like nothing in comparison, its a real nice oddity that I am really pleased with.

Well I think that would be me topped out on this thread for like a year :lol:

 

[Joe]

Oh yeah forgot that bit Spoons

 

[spoons]

Very nice Frank - and what's in it Jambob?

I finally picked up a Lili Ledy INT-4 a personal grail of mine. I was stoked and then another appeared on ebay, with inserts, sticker sheet and intructions for not a lot more - lost out by a bid :x

Still fairly happy, its a bit battered but you've got to love that logo, and I also got a couple of other items. Jimmy2pack visited form the States and brought me a great Kubrick Han, and for my 40th Birthday I was bought a Jedi (bath) Robe and a remote controlled R2 :lol:

Happy days

Hi spoons, nice lili ledy box with vehicle 8) Han solo figure, R2-D2 and robe does also looks great. Who is the ugle jedi with the robe on ? :lol: sorry just a joke :wink:

 

[theslider]

The R2 looks inflatable - how does that work then?!

The early bird set is lovely and the X-Wing with the offer looks superb, are they super rare Frunkstar?

 

[spoons]

Cheers guys

The R2 looks inflatable - how does that work then?!

It's a remote control base with an inflatable R2 on top - it bombs along and scares the **** out of my toddler daughter. My son hides in the hall tormenting her with it :roll: :lol:
