It has been a long time since I posted any items in here so imagine my joy when I got two on the same day 
(still got one in transit too 8) )
Got this one off the bay for £17 which I thought was a bit of a steal - 65b back
My first ever 12 back Got him at memorabilia last November and wanted to get him graded when I could afford it. Well chuffed
This is the new UKG grade sticker which I think looks superb and much clearer than their old version

Nice one they're Fantastic 8) I didn't know that Memorabilia was on in November....I was gutted as i couldn't make it last month. So i'll be looking forward to going this November, it's only a few days after my birthday as well
Just seen the UKG label....I was told they had changed the label from the blue colour. I think it looks better like that....I don't know why but i didn't like the blue :roll:

Cheers Chewie. I've really only ever gone to the November Memorabilia - been to the March one a few times but never gone to the summer one.
I love going to the November one as it gives me the opportunity to get all of the presents from the family :lol:

Like Nick I've not been around much recently and not posted on this thread for a while.
So on the back of Nick's very nice MOC's I was well chuffed to add 2 ESB Palitoy 30 backs today
Although one of the easier 30 bks to come across still well happy with this c9 Lando
Next up a Bespin Luke,shame about the yellow bubble,especially as the cardback is light coloured and doesn't hide it to well. But hey-ho as I always tell myself beggars can't be choosers when it comes to Palitoy.
If anyone is interested I'm gonna update my pics on vintage showcase as I've had a bit of a change in focus since I last updated it a year or so ago.

Great Palitoy buys Lee.
Thanks Emiel - I only ever buy MOC or posters. Never got into collecting loose or vehicels

The Palitoy Lando is absoloutely fabulous, nice pick up there Lee. I have to admit I do like the new UKG stickers as well, i may be temted to send some loose in now. Has their turn around time and customer service improved any as their reputation was a bit flakey at one point.

Yeah Rich it has improved massively. Sent him off, got him graded and back again within 2 weeks with constant emails keeping me updated. I know the guys are members on here and I know the last time I used them I think they were a man down and although they were slow they still did a great job!
always happy with UKG
tigerham said:Yeah Nick, have to say that UKG are doing ok these days/ We've gotta get the word out, bring grading home!
Too true Ham! Would sort of like a bit of a discount for all the good press (deserved imo) i'm giving them :wink: :lol: :lol:

I do have a chuckle when I hear people say graded loose are protected forever- when " they dont half clang about a bit in them boxes" I'd still leave it encased - there is no rush to break him out.

Personally I'd set him free as there's nothing like the feel of the genuine article as appose to the acrylic plastic surrounding them, speaking about loose figures tho have been recently doing the same with MOC's and kinda going off the idea of sealed casings. Just like to feel the history if that makes sense.
