Some cracking additions again. Love the Revenge proof Shawn, top drawer stuff. Jeff, a couple of nice loosies, the sets nearly finished now. Gorneesh, sweet poster buddy, and Grant, great score, and a cracking price. That Lobot is one strange looking dude!
Been a bit skint of late, what with family commitments and all that, but I just about scraped enough together to get my first Palitoy 12 back. It's not graded yet, but I expect it to come back with at least straight 80's. Not a perfect card, but it's in good enough nick for me.
Thanks.
After an 8 hour round trip to Blackpool to collect this beauty in person, I am pleased to share this with you guys
I had almost written this of after the price the DSC miscard went for, but I got really lucky. Total focus collectors dream... This is (to my knowledge) the only example to turn up. The back story for the three miscards (DSC, Jawa and solid dome r2) the guy had is he bought them in 1988 from a market stall in Blackpool for 50p. He said there loads, baskets full of tri logos. He bought them for army builders, who knows what other combos originated from that find?!
Steve (the seller) was a total gent, the circumstances of our transaction were, interesting. I met him the psychiatric ward of Blackpools Victoria hospital! Luckily no one challenged us (two blokes in a hospital with a box full of carded figures and a big wad of cash :lol: ) and he even even bought me lunch!!
Here is a side by side shot of my two favourite Jawas- finally the miscarded J can see what his home could have looked like:
Cheers Joe! I forgot to say thanks to everyone who sent me the link (pretty much everyone on the boards lol!)
A big thanks to Gary Smith for helping me out :wink:
