Picked this up for a steal the other day ...I'm hoping it's not the remains of a pissed off TT U grade :roll:

Nope, pretty sure that's a genuine GM card back.

Good score!

That's one hard piece to pick up Slider

Congrats on securing him into your ever growing collection. Things tend to slow down a bit when you get closer to completing a run but the ones near the end tend to be worth the wait.

Not wrong Ian! A lot of the ones left are turning into grail pieces, cf the Palitoy Dengar the other week on eBay! 12 back Han and Death Squad Commander are proving a bugger to pick up at a reasonable price. And as for Leia Bespin outfit - never seen one!

Here's an unusual one:

This is a Lili Ledy TIE Pilot (with Emprers Royal Guard Limbs)

They were made from LL overstock after the factory closed.

From Ozio (TIG):

Basic characteristics on them:
Overstock parts, some factory painted, some unpainted and then hand painted.

Glued torsos, no sonic welded torsos (this is the main and most important characteristic on these figures) and that's why they called my attention many years ago.

They are a kind of a bootleg/hybrid/overstock/ERG legs fun mix.

They are pretty hard to find, through my collecting years (20+) I have only found 5 of them, 2 Tie pilots, 2 biker scouts and 1 Luke Bespin.

Many thanks to Stef for alerting us to the sale. :wink:

I think it's a proper one. Looks like a genuine seal. Just got lucky. Don't think the seller knew what it was

@Grant....loving that bootleg/hybrid, I'm so glad it when to a focus collector like yourself. I may have to buy myself one someday.

And congrats to everyone else the amount of stuff that purchased between you guys is astonishing!!

Love the tie pilot, looks like a right mincer with his thin legs.

It was mate. Considering it's a Clipper and the condition was pretty good I thought it was a bargain. Made the decision to buy in about 10 seconds flat

Major congrats on getting the Reseal Palitoy Fett Stevie and in very nice condition too.

Leia Bespin (Profile Pic) Palitoy Logo - I did have one (Open Reseal, no footer) sold her to Andy (Chazb73) few years ago, I think he has since sold her on though. But she does exist

Cheers Paul. It's only going to get harder from now one though! Surprised that I haven't yet seen a Leia for sale though and Gammorrean Guard is also turning out to be a tough bugger to get although everyone's friend Toy Toni had one for sale a few weeks ago!
