That's a fantastic deal and you do indeed have the UK set as the numbers on the red set are 1A ect and the US set continued after the last number on the blue set ( 66 on blue, 67 on red I think). I would have also snapped that set up so it just goes to show that there are still bargains out there! :D

Oh and if that box is ever something you want to let go of please do drop me a line!! :wink:

Ian

Thanks for clearing that up for me bud, and if I ever decide to sell it, you'll be first in the queue ;)


Good to know and some great recent purchases :D
 
today I recieved a bunch of Dutch monty collecting cards and could make 2 complete runs of all 100 cards, as a bonus a poster which I had in my childhood but got cut in pieces to make a photo album.. the poster is as it came from the shelves

Hi all!

Been on a 6 month break due to work and family commitments, just getting back into the groove :-)

I thinned out my collection a bit as I feel it was becoming a "hoard" not a "collection", so set myself the task of completing a full run of 96 MOC's. Very shortly I'll be down to 3 left to get across a good mix of cardbacks :-D

Picked this beauty up just before my break :-D

Love the backing card for the 1st issue R2, one of the best IMO.

Klaatu run looks good too.

Not a very (as in the past couple of weeks) recent acquisition, but I wanted to share. Scouring ebay in the odd hours can pay off...

What's in the box?

Newly listed in the US I spot this and bought it now for £100 including the postage and customs charges and had no idea it came with the original catalogue mailer because the listed didn't show a photo of it or mentioned it in the listing. I thought it was a bargain without it anyway so to have it show up within 7 days well packed and in the condition it was in was a massive bonus. The seller just sold handbags so this was a bit of a weird item for them but it was the only thing they has from Star Wars. They said it was an unwanted gift and got stuck in a wardrobe. One of my favourite items.

Is that the original shipping case for the Laser Rifle? Even if not that is a great pick up for £100 (including all the charges!)

Yes mate, it's what I think is classed as a catalogue mailer. I've seen a 12" Boba Fett in a similar style outer packaging some years ago.
 
That ESB laser rifle is amazing, your on a roll at the moment for great deals :D

Oh and loved your ESB Palitoy 30 back Leia upgrade from the other day Slider, any plans for an update of your reseal collection?

Take a bow son

A beauty at a great price 8)
 
******* love it Mr. Spoons. I have never seen one in an original shipper and by far the Empire one is harder to find boxed than the 3-Position one on any day. You have given me wood. 8)

Spoons, that is a bit special. Very nice.

I wish it was mine but its sublevelstudios, I just thought it needed to be on the next page too :D

I enjoyed my wood giving skills for a short while :wink:
 
tiefighterboy said:

Cool EV Leon, toughie to find in good nick - what's the arm situation on it? Repaired, untouched or loose?

They are glued in place but I'm ok with that.
