try taking th photo from even further away - that might work :lol:

It actually looks very good, I assume its an original card and you've repaired the bit behind the bubble. The bubble looks wrong but I don't know why, it might be that it's too battered for the card. It might be that I'm just looking for things as I know its a fake :D

Keep up the good work :D

if i was to take a few select photos and give it a vivid discription and put it on ebay i doubt anyone would question it........ anyway its a b-wing trilogo card i just printed out the template of boba on photopaper-cut out the iner photo and stuck it to the original card!! the bubble is original too i got it from mr palitoy !!
 
I did think the colour looked a bit off, but the punch is very good, and the dark bit under the bubble made it look like a reseal.

It would fool a lot of people on ebay, but these hardly pop up every day so people might be a bit suspicious. Also, as soon as they looked at it in the flesh they would realise it was a fake, and report you to ebay/paypal :lol:
 
got a few this week...

nothing out of the ordinary but nice anyways....

a big shout to FRUNKSTAR the stormtrooper and madine are excellent - many thanks!

lastly.... the second from left han hoth... Spoons.. thats the one we thought was a dark legged one... its got a kind of green tint - hope this picture shows it better mate.

They seem to be doing the can-can sadly...

got more in the post still too :)
 
well done Gustie, keep them coming :)

What's the deal with the translucent face Luke? - I've just noticed one of mine is like that :?:
 
lol

well i posted a Ã'£50 auction for some scabby luke bespins and one of these translucent faces ones where included.... that is when craig said that they can be quite hard to pick up - giving me the impression they could be quite rare.



thats all :)

leekmarket005.jpg

leekmarket007.jpg
 
nice

i have that at-at commander its PBP

the walrus man is either PBP or TRi i get confused... COCO is best to ask or Craig :)

your boba isnt a ledy :( they are dark blue plastic but its nice all the same :) i have a painted knee tri fett but need the unpainted knee one like yours. i may go for painted/unpainted dart combos after that.

my Ree Yees is different to both of yours - i have only got a molded hands and green boots -the Taiwan one... need both other painted hands ones (H.K. and melted down no COO)

some nice finds there :)
 
some more bits......

i got quite lucky on this auction it was Ã'£4.20 with a C9 Chewie too :)
The sticker aint bad.. slightly yellow
ebay link
here is a pic of the R2-D2
2r2solid.jpg


i couldnt tell which R2 it was ; sensorscope/solid etc... so was a gamble. ended up being a solid top :)

now... i knew that there is a HONG KONG and TAIWAN R2-D2.... but i never knew that a MADE IN HONG KONG variant existed :)


i have in the last week picked up 2 nice R2 solid tops :) and just need the TAIWAN one to get all 3 - bar ledy etc etc.

uzayatatdriver.jpg

UZAY At-At Driver .... i just dropped this in here as have just made it into a figure :)

tauntaun.jpg

lastly- a trusty soft belly taun-taun... reason i posted this is because of the saddle... most of the ones i have seen have a narrow belly strap, mine here has a thick belly strap. i wondered if there is any significance with variants with taun-tauns??
 
they are both moulded hands
looking at other spare figures it would appear only taiwan are moulded hands
looking for clarification lads
 
got these two figures , i wasnt looking to buy anything but these were to cheap to let pass buy there a bit knackered but would be good to get graded..... anyway i got them cheap and the postage for both was a tenner so all in all not bad..
