HOLY GRAIL ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!

Managed to pick this up last week on eBay. I was the only bidder which I was surprised at. I know condition is not the best but still thought it would have had a bit more interest. Bubble is cracked, looks like the card has been folded in half at some point, but I'm happy with it. I have one at last, that's all that counts.



I've only managed to get this as I have come into some money through an inheritance, so I am not breaking my buying ban!!! Am possibly looking at another purchase but will keep hush hush until a deal is done.

Cracking MOC there Chris, you must be really pleased.

Ebay is a strange place, sometimes I wonder why certain items don't attract more interest and others do. It's almost like people are afraid to be the first bidder on something especially if the initial starting price is quite high.

 

[Grant_C]

Well done chris. :mrgreen:

 

[theslider]

Nice Yoda, I take it he's particularly rare?

 

[skywalker]

@Dark sith lord - That 3 pack is great mate and the packaging looks MINT condition..

@Jedi masters - Great item mate even in that condition it's still such a nice piece,, was this the one where the seller gave the proceeds to the James Bulger fund I remember seeing it but it was while back..??

[Pomse2001]

Some awesome pick ups here guys,I can't compete with some of the fantastic stuff but have put up my tiny bit of SW joy pick ups


I've never owned a landspeeder, or VME or INT 4 so had to pick these up today, parts missing but got for the boxes really and the 2 boxed and driver, £8 in all so I'm happy with that
Got the landspeeder in a swap for a modern MOC so happy with that as well

Hi michael, that is some great items you have bought 8) Love the boxes :wink:

 

[Spookedhippie]

Awesome yoda jedi master! Great find

 

[Pomse2001]

Was watching this for quite some time and then finally decided to pull the trigger on it as these Palitoy MOCs (in whatever condition) are thin on the ground (for reasonable prices!) From the pictures I thought the open bubble area wasn't too bad and on receiving this proved the case so all I need to reseal it is an original footer (or a custom one made from a cardback) and a name plate repair - hence me needing a SW Walrus Man card!

Interesting side note, on the bit of the card that is still sealed (the top) exhibits the waffle pattern common with all these early cards, however the card also shows waffle pattern residue (best word I can use to describe it) around the outer edges of the bubble. I've heard tales of figures having 'double bubbles' but never thought it possible. I've tried to show this on the second photo.

Once I get the necessary materials I'll document this cards restoration (although I'm mostly cack handed!)

Hi mate, wow nice palitoy Walrus Man card, cool back with palitoy deathstar. Sorry to see the card is cut but still a nice card

 

[timbo72]

Not vintage but custom and the Bwing is cool

 

[timbo72]

Sorry about the wrong way round pics

 

[BlueDog]

Love that custom rebel trooper Tim, may I ask where you got him form mate as I'd love to add one of those to my collection?

Here's my latest that arrived today, once again a HUGE thank you to Shawn for helping me add these to my collection. I owe you big time mate!

I'm going to use Shawn's pics he sent me as anything I could take would look rubbish compared to these.

Yoda 8 Ball, been after one of these for a while

Beautiful MIB Kenner US Yoda Puppet to go with my Canadian version.

Cheers Ryan
