Latest Acquisitions

My latest arrived this morning, another bloody bargain with the VC Jawa, again well chuffed and gonna get this one graded. :)

That is a very nice VC Jawa

I need to get myself one of these little bad boys - don't really want an AFA graded one as I dont like the cases but at the same time it is a lot of cash to part with for something that is faked so often.
 
Cheers chaps and thank Emiel, bit of a risk but pic just gave me a good feeling.

Joe one of the other 2 VC Jawas I let go to Ed for helping out on the authentification on them so only the 2 I'm afraid. :p

Ya know whats weird tho the other two I have/had had their capes the other way round with shiny on the outside and patterned on the inside and the latest one has the pattern on the outside. Noticing that I think the pattern should be on the outside as the cape seems to sit tighter around the collar and fold better. Maybe at birth they were taken off during play and just put on the other way. I personally think in terms of colour/gloss the pattern should be on the inside but in terms of fit the other way round if this makes sense, lol.
 
Nice Jamie, I also got a few tris in today.

Had a ****ing awful weekend full of cold so this has cheered me up!

Cheers guys!

Yeah the Luke is my new favourite, took me a long time to find one that nice at a price I was willing to pay !

The Imperial commander whilst a bit beat up was actually part of one of those Italian four pack sets so hes kinda cool and I am happy with him for what I paid.
 
Side note/question: Did they ever do tri logos Lando Skiff and Leia Boushh with the separate helmet section bubble style??

Kinda..

The earliest Trilogos used overstock ROTJ bubbles from each licencee , so many of the French versions have pretty cool bubbles on like this one :

Cooool! AH, i want one now!! Are they rare/expensive etc??.... i think i already know the answer...
 
You can find them if you really look hard enough, both Boushh and Lando came out on French Meccano trilogos with the same bubble type as the one above.

Rare yes but they can be found, you would pay more if the seller knew what he had but you can get lucky from time to time on ebay :)
 
No it's even better than TESCO's!

ARNOLDS GIFT CENTER
£1.75

Love it! (Actually it was part of the reason I sold my old one to buy this one!)
 
Magic :lol: :lol:

The sad thing is most of these little shops died out about the same time as these toys were sitting on the shelf :|

Gotta love old price stickers though, I think there was an Arnolds Gift Center in the town where I grew up, if I remember rightly it was **** lol
