[Mr Kenner]

Thanks for all the kind comments guys. This piece has brought a big to my face.

 

[BlueDog]

Amazing 3 pack Chris, simply superb and kudos to Liam for giving you the lead.

Mr Kenner makes it the daily double with the Early Bird piece, fantastic bit of vintage history there well done.

Hi Scott, cool baggies. I love them all and what is the story about the Toltoys mailbox, what figure is inside it ?

Hi Lars, Its an Austrailian maler that was sent out with the Nein Numb offer on there MOC's, don't know if this ones overstock though as there's only the return to sender address on it.

Hi scott, great story. Is there a difference to that Nien Nunb and others with the same coo ?

Hi Caswellbot, that special action figure set is so cool :wink:

Hi Mr Kenner, amazing An Early Bird Bin Header, cool. You have a really great focus

No differences in the figure Lars, I don't know if this type of baggies found else ware though.

 

[Caswellbot]

Cracking store display Anthony. That is an extremely tough header to find. Are you still trying to track down the pole display? Either way, kudos buddy that is superb.

Thanks for all the kind comments guys. I really appreciate it. It's great to hear that fellow collectors appreciate a purchase and to finally own a real grail piece for my run. I think on this occasion I will take silver grant if that's whats on offer. :wink:

 

[silver grin]

Evening all. Got this from an artist based in the States. Don't want to actively promote their work but happy to answer questions via pm so to keep the new acquisitions thread on course :wink:

This looks grand... just got to find space for it in my house (along with about 50 others :lol: )

I think on this occasion I will take silver grant if that's whats on offer. :wink:

That's the goldest looking silver I ever saw. Unbelievable stuff, twice in a row! :shock:

Thanks Chris. I would love to get my hands on a EB pole display but there is only 1 known example out there. Its safely tucked up in someones collection.

 

[Caswellbot]

No worries Anthony. I thought there was still only one example too. I'll cross my fingers it ends up with you some day. That would be killer! I take nothing away from the header though mate. Seriously cool piece!! 8)

Hi scott, let me know if you learn some more about that figure, he looks very pretty

Hi silver grin, awesome poster, I think many boba fett collectors will be very jealous :shock:

 

[Caswellbot]

That fett poster is very cool Nick. It'll look super sweet in a nice frame. Nice score!!

 

[spoons]

Great pieces as ever guys, and a very impressive 3 pack Chris 8)

Just picked up my first vintage in a very long time, the bomber is a grail piece for me (and I'm too tight to pay full whack). A sealed one went for a mere £300 the same week but from a seller with 0% feedback in Thailand :roll:

I got it for a great price but the wings have been glued, the TIE came with it too so that's now for sale

 

[Dark Sith Lord]

Another Grail piece? :shock:

Top Drawer stuff again 8)

 

[Caswellbot]

Niiice die cast tie bomber Andy! Me gusta mucho. These seldom come up even loose so that's a great acquisition for your focus. Congrats.

 

[CRAZYHAZY]

:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:
Just awesome folks, shear vintage indulgence.
congrats

 

[Grant_C]

I will take silver grant if that's whats on offer. :wink:

No way dude. You can definatly have a gold as well. :wink:


....and spoons as well.

Some superb carded figures there Jez. They look great in the acrylic cases too. Was great to meet you on sunday by the way. The new setup at your house looks amazing.

Im sorry to break the MOC love here guys but I had to share this one with you. As many of you know from my sales threads I have recently been trying to secure a grail piece for my 3 pack run. I must thank Liam for sending me a link to a rather random post elsewhere on the net which really paid off as a lead for me, so thanks buddy. Well, after a very tense wait and a bit of a post office scare it has finally arrived. It is a Canadian Imperial Forces 3 Pack.

For those that dont know, Canadian 3 Pack sets are notably much more scarce than their US counterparts. In this case, as far as I can tell, only 2 examples of this set have surfaced so far and this is the nicer of the 2. The reason being, is that these sets were only available in small quantities to certain department stores who signed up to the department store programme. This particular set originates from Simpsons and it still has the price sticker on the side of the pack. I will post a piece on my limelight thread at some point about the difference between the US and Kenner sets.

In the meantime here is a link to the SWCA where this set is pictured at the bottom of the page.

I am literally over the moon with this. Sorry about the crap pic guys its the only picture I had time to take earlier as I had to go out tonight. Better pics to follow which should show some of the cool features of this set.

All the best, Chris.


Canadian Imperial Forces 3 Pack by Caswell2009, on Flickr

This was delivered from AFA yesterday. An Early Bird Bin Header. I've never seen one for sale before and was chuffed when I stumbled across this one. Its going straight into the Top 10 (high up) and helps me get closer to completing my Early Bird Focus. I would not trade this for anything (well maybe Chris new 3-Pack :wink: )

These two need a bump! 8)
Awesome Chris and Anthony, two historical pieces!
