Great score!

Congratulations martin,
Now that your in the mood for the blue & red label you could put in a cheeky offer for the full palitoy set on ebay.
Wish I was in a position to do that.
Congrats again,
Andy
Cheeky as in offering £100 and a bag of Cough Candy Twist? Because that's about my limit, unfortunately :lol: I was in the beautiful town of Beverley just the other day, and I was thinking to myself: somewhere nearby is Palitoy heaven... :shock:

Cheers Stevie, I'm enjoying revelling in my triple Stormtrooper 12a back greediness :lol:
 
Haven't looked in this section for about a week and I have to say some great item's have been added to it.

Grant - cool auto's, I got BDW back at CE in 2007, nice guy and would have been a great guy to chat too if they let you. Look forward to November when Jez, Iain and myself can see you get his, the smile on your face will be huge!!

Nick - Really, 48 AST5's, that's just plain greedy!!! :lol: great score buddy, the only problem like you say now is what do you do with them, how do display them?!?

Martin - Sweet Pali cards and figures. I need to get me a Pali back one day, all my MOC's are Kenner. Might hunt out a Pali Yoda MOC, that would be awesome for my focus.

Lars - love the loosie's, look nice and minty

Webby - I have always wanted to get the ESB case with Yoda on the front, just never pulled the trigger on any that I have seen. Yours looks great, might have to hunt me an ESB one down.

Bollocks, cant remember who bought the book but like Jez, I am inspired to get one. Where is the best place to purchase one of these bad boys.

Have a few purchases to add from the last couple of weeks, hopefully add them tomorrow at some point.

Chris... I'm shaking my head in despair, haven't you just posted a thread titled: "PLEASE DO NOT LET ME BUY ANYTHING!!"?

I bought the book. And it wouldn't be right to give you the contact details to make your own purchase. Keep your focus on purchasing acrylic cases en-masse in mind. Crikey, I feel like I've actually turned into a responsible adult at 43 years of age. Five gold stars for me.

PM me if you want Stephane Faucourt's contact details just to make an enquiry :lol:

Apologies for hogging this thread of late, but I've just received this little gem from California.

It's probably becoming apparent that I'm a bit of a logo fiend when it comes to the various Star Wars licensees, and while a Takara MOC was slightly out of my budget range :roll: I decided to settle for this pin badge from 1977, just to satisfy my craving.
I love the packaging, and it was a real treat to see the design on the reverse as this wasn't photographed in the original auction listing.

That Takara logo does make me smile :D

Hi Martin, nice Takara Badge. I have never seen this badge before :eek:
 
Excellent stuff guys, a Takara is one of my wants too!
Nice Die Cast Grant, and Coin Nut, that is one sweet 3 Pack, great grade of 85 as well!
Awesome.

I do have a 3 pack mailer but this 1 is a hard to find 8 pack and is still sealed even harder
Center piece for the mail away display cabinet at the moment
 
Couple of cheeky little updates. My MOC collection has had a few upgrades but think I will wait until my cases arrived from Christian and then do a massive new limelight for them

In the meantime, I have been snaffling up a few of the coins and am up to 33 + 6 of the Droids/Ewoks - picked these up recently

Love those coin cases - good recommendation from Chris there

I also decided it was time to pick up a few bits that I don't actually own - and I thought I might as well make them all of the same character (so I guess you can say it is a focus) - have more on the way but this is what I have so far

A Popy - this one is a beauty and comes with the catalogues

I also picked up one of these - mainly inspired by Pete's Yaks

Great character focus Iain.
DSD is sweet.
I can't wait for the big limelight mate (when they've made enough acrylic!).
