Latest Acquisitions

[x-pack]

Thanks for that. I figured it must be something to do with the ink running low as our work printers do that. Chewie is indeed another one down, but it's getting tough to find them now. Had some luck in the last couple of weeks but the prices are getting a little higher. There's probably a few that i just won't be able to get hold of, such as Fett and Luke farmboy. Whatever happens i'm really enjoying collecting these ESB backs

Nice Chewie moc X-Pack

Nice chewbacca on card x-pack, even with the bubble has been cut open and the pop removed :shock:

Looking very great :wink:

Got these today -

Really nice R2 baggie from chazb73 - cheers Andy delighted with him, looks great in an acrylic case next to 3PO

Also had this Gamorrean Guard delivered today

Bubble is crystal clear, ding/dent free and card itself is perfect - but...............
The cardback is out of line, the picture isn't centred. There is a white line running down the left and the right is chopped off?

I have no reason to doubt the seller as I have bought from them before with no issues but I admit I am no expert when it comes to moc's. This is only my third. I have compared it to all my old cardbacks but none look like this.
Here's a close up of the seal

So have I added a beautiful moc to my collection with a slight printing issue (which I kinda like as long as it's genuine) or have a bought a homemade recard :shock:

Oh just to be 100% clear it was only R2 that chazb73 sent not Gam Guard - just in case it's dodgy!
Eagerly awaiting your replies and wisdom - be gentle I'm only learning!

@Theslider - Some lovely cardbacks you have there, I use to collect cardbacks and really I enjoyed it..

@Xpack - Nice chewie mate how many Moc's do you have now..??

@Db94 - It looks good to me mate,, As you have said just likely to be a printing an issue the whole batch would have come out like that so there may be a few more out there... Lovey Droid baggies mate..

 

[Pomse2001]

Hi Colin, wow great baggies and a nice moc. Gamorrean Guards are so cool, I loved to play with him when I was a kid :lol:

@Xpack - Nice chewie mate how many Moc's do you have now..??

Not sure to be honest. I counted them off against a 31 back the other day and had, well ...quite a few. There are more in my collection up to 45 backs as well. Just collecting the lot on ESB's really. Haven't got them all displayed at the moment because i ran out of cases. Got loads waiting to be set out. Way more than half way there but there are quite a few ESB backs that are hard to come by at budget level. Can see myself just getting the cardbacks for the harder ones such as Boba Fett.

 

[skywalker]

@Xpack - yeah I know what you mean mate it can become expensive when you get to the rarer figures, good luck anyway dude..

@Michael - Love the Palitoy catalog mate..

 

[skywalker]

Two more Moc's... Very happy with these..

 

[Jedi_june]

@MichaelSith: Nice Akbar & Palitoy Catalog

@Skywalker: :shock: Love the Han Trench, Anakin stick is awesome! Looks great & the Nikto is cool too :mrgreen:

 

[Pomse2001]

Hi skywalker, nice moc. Love the stickers on them with free anakin and coin :wink:

 

[kuwahero]

Great pick ups guys. Loving all these carded figures.

Reminds me of my childhood.

Every Thursday my mum did our weekly shop. If my brother or I went to help her we were allowed to stop at John Menzies, on the way back, for a Star Wars figure.

Happy times

Lovely Popy Luke!

As a Jawa collector I'm completely envious that we don't get anything like this for the focus.
