WOW Lee :shock: Chituhr looks superb, well done!

I see Luthersquire over on RS got the Mongo, unlucky matey


Great find with the Canadian Luke figure Edd :wink:

I think its better to have a ropey one in your collection than none at all and it may be a long time before another shows up...

 

[spoons]

Nice finds guys - you two must be minted :shock:

 

[inzaman]

Good find Edd, there cant be that many Luke Bespin cards left for you now

 

[inzaman]

My new arrival 8)

 

[Rudyard]

Very nice Inzaman!

Your loose AFA collection must really be coming on now. Do you have any graded higher than U90?

 

[cocofstar]

Thats a Gem Inza 8)

How many U grade figures do you have now?

 

[Carl Waterworth]

nice one! thats one thing my collection is lacking, somthing which is AFA graded!

 

[lee gray]

Nice one inza !

 

[vintage_sw]

Inzaman : That must have been a long wait for you to find this great piece

 

[spoons]

Nice one Inza 8)

Here are my latest, a Polish 2nd Gen Han Hoth and Brazilian Model Trem lead bootleg

 

[inzaman]

Thanks guys, trying to track a Zuckuss and Dengar down now, I have seen a 90 Zuckuss but not a Dengar yet. I am holding out for a U90 Zuckuss but we will see.
I 'only' have about 35ish graded figures with just over half U grade.

 

[inzaman]

Great stuff spoons, i like the one in the box 8)

 

[inzaman]

Very nice Inzaman!

Unfortunately not, but 90 is good, very good imo; love to compare a 90 to a 95 to see if the untrained eye can spot any differences

Nice figures guys! 8)

One thing always amazes me about the Bootlegs is how UNlike the originals they look.
It's like someone said to Stevie Wonder "Here, mate design a few copies of this figure will you?"

And ask Ray Charles to paint them when you're finished will you! :lol:

 

[weasel]

:lol: Nice!

 

[Fitzy]

Well that's another minority group insulted to check off the list. Keep up the good work, we'll get through them eventually.

 

[Fitzy]

It's like they got Muhammad Ali to paint them.

There you go. Another one down.

 

[weasel]

What minority groups are left to insult?

The blind...........hardly worth it they won't be able to read this anyway!

 

[Darth Wensleydale]

Bagged another Palitoy. This one is very special to me as its the only figure I can clearly remember buying when I was about 6-7 years old. I can actually remember my mum giving me a pound note, reaching and pulling it off the hanger and taking it to the counter at the hardware store where I once lived in Walsall. I'm chuffed that I managed to find one again

 

[mr_palitoy]

Nice!

The bubble on that looks sweet. Shame about the card damage on the punch.

Jason

 

[Darth Wensleydale]

the bit around the punch looks worse on the pic than it is in reality. I'm just happy to have found one more than anything

 

[craignwo4life]

Nice buys guys, the U90 4 Lom must be pretty hard to find.
8)
I have hardly bought anything recently for the first time in nearly 3 years of collecting !!

 

[Rudyard]

I'm also lucky enough to own a U90 4-LOM. If anyone else wants one, there's one for sale on ebay at the moment:

That's the best bit of collection (for us aulder ones anyway) picking up things you remember buying or having as a kid.
That's a great MOC as well, nice one! 8)

 

[Bollux]

Thats really nice Darth!

I am also from Walsall, but only managed to move away a little bit down the M6.

I used to get my SW figs from Menzies, Merretts and Debenhams from what I can remember.

Menzies toy dept in the Saddlers centre.....happy memories!

 

[cocofstar]

Nice buy Darth 8) Palitoy's always look fantastic!

 

[Darth Wensleydale]

Menzies toy dept in the Saddlers centre.....happy memories!

Yep I remember it well. I used to live in Bentley not too far from Junction 10. There is a parade of shops there and I think the little hardware store is still there. I'll have to have a look next time I'm in the area, I wonder if they might have a few bits left in a dusty corner of their stockroom? :wink:

 

[Jukesy]

Thats one minty looking Greedo you have there Darth Wensleydale !!

 

[lee gray]

nice rudy spoons and darth

some of the polish bootlegs look well weird, i like original star wars cards, greedo is a cool one and a u 90 4 lom is nice too
