Latest Acquisitions

[Joe]

A most amazing piece of Star Wars history Jase, congratulations are in order considering it was pieced together! I knew it was possible with some luck! So do you have a DT Vader to complete the set?

I commend your dedication to the hobby on pushing for originals instead of replicas, it proves it can happen with some luck patience and a bit of ££

Thanks Joe, moderns not my thing either but I know vintage pre production Yoda stuff is impossible to obtain so this was the next best thing. Really chuffed with them, will look great when I can get my focus all together and displayed nicely.

Thanks to Mark "The man" Kennedy I received one of the mintiest Trilogos I have ever seen and it's Lando!

Also got this Ugnaught backer with remnants of the tall thin alt bubble, still not grabbed a MOC Uggy yet but when I do it'll be this variant!

 

[Dark Sith Lord]

Very Minty Tri there Joe! Nice work mate! 8)

 

[Grant_C]

Nice,

I remember in the early 90's when Trilogos were cheap as everyone went after kenner cards. How things changed.

 

[Joe]

£26.47 isn't expensive

(What that Lando cost) :mrgreen:

£26.47? :shock: Bargain! Nice one Joe!

 

[Grant_C]

Yeah- thats a bargin. I got an old Model Mart from the 90's- wow- you could pick up some great MOC's for under £100. Yak Trilogo- £200, R2-D2 Glasslite-£30, Trilogo AT-AT Driver £20, 12 backs £125 each, Its a crazy read and judging by the notes on the side i've opted for a brand new POTF2 snowspeeder instead. (DOH!) :roll:

Ouch! Yeah looking back on prices only makes us depressed so it's best to bin the old magazines and pretend it didn't happen!

I have heard plenty of stories of £40 Trilogo Jawas and the like..
