Jeff, forgot to say lovely boxed goodies there. You say about condition not being great on the boxes. I used to be the same with my MOC's, wanted them in perfect condition, bubble mint blah blah blah, but I soon realised if you stick to that, youll never buy anything. My view now is its better to have one than not at all.

Your on the slippery slope now into the realms of boxed and MOC's, as Lee said above, very enjpyable but can be very frustrating at the same time. Keep up the good stuff Jeff.

Some nice items guys.

You got a serious bargin on those mini-rigs mate and i really like the SW Star Destroyer Commander.

Today I have a few items come through.

First up is the SW scented eraser display (anyone got any erasers?) and the ROTJ Staionary counter display. This was a lot bigger than i thought and is beautiful. Id advise anyone to pick it up.

and a SW Header for the release of SW in 8mm format:

Next up is some Misc stuff. What might be of interest to you toy collectors is the Kenner Vader Sweepstakes patch, the Revenge of the Jedi Leaflet and the ESB Sweepstakes form.

Next we have a ROTJ Vader Shop Display Header for the Rainbow record and cassette 'read along' books

A shop display card for the ESB Album release

Hope you like- keep em' coming

30 days no smoking, deserve some treats

As always great stuff Grant. We collect the same ****.

 

[Lee77]

Hey Maulster! As always, great pickups. I love seeing all those neat items. Makes a change from page after page of mocs and vehicles!
Out of interest, in your second pic there's an ESB red and black vader patch. Where's that from. I bought some bits from USA and the seller sent me a couple free. Never seen them before.
Well done.

 

[Grant_C]

The patch is from a sweepstakes offer from Kenner. I'm not sure of the year, Maybe some other SWFUK's may know :?:

Hi Grant

Nice pick ups mate , i love all the odball stuff .
The Yoda Sticker is a US fan club thing .

Great to hear that you quid smoking . I have been smoke free for 1.1/2 year now .

It is super hard to get thoug . The first 6 months where hell for me . Then i started running and it very quickly the bigget
urge to smoke gave way . Now i love running . I was just out for over an hour to day running in the sun

But i still have that urge to smoke :evil: And i know i can never smoke again . Then i wil be hooked after just one smoke

 

[Grant_C]

Cool mate, this is my 9th attempt. It's two different people. I'm incredabley proactive when I don't smoke and full of passion, and therefore pissed off and depressed when i smoke. Hopefully we will break it this time.

I can't believe we live in a world where 10 cigs are worth more than a 29 year old vintage ROTJ Darth vader tape dispenser MOC.

Nice chewbacca. 8)

 

[jackabina]

just a quicky of an upto date group shot. 3 more on the way :twisted:

 

[Dublinjeff]

Nice, looking good there...... 8)
