Love that display box full of rulers Grant, was this of Meemo guy on ebay? He had loads of really great stationery items. Was tempted by the Pencil tops.

Yeah- he had some class oddball stuff. I won 1 out of 10 maybe. 2 years ago there would have been a third of bidders on these oddball items.

Big change. :?

I've been thinking about this for a while now. All of a sudden everyone is getting into cardbacks. There's loads on the market because of all the 'U' grading and the 'U' graders are probaly thinking lovely not only can I flip the figure but the cardback is worth a bit as well. Not only that but collectors like myself are buying the odd cardback to fill a whole as MOC's are to exspensive as there are less about because they have all been 'U' graded!!!!! I was going to start a thread about it until I saw this post.

Excellent stuff Benny and Grant 8)

This arrived this morning
It's a re-seal and missing the bomb, box has some issues but it displays great and the actual Y-Wing is almost perfect. And I doubt I'll find a mint sealed one for less than the £55 this one cost me. Looking for an ESB Falcon and ESB carded X-Wing now...

 

[robpmarsh]

nice die-casts!

I've almost completed my loose run too...just need the TIE Fighter and Bomber (that's gonna cost me!)

 

[edd_jedi]

My first MOC for over a year thanks to Spoons for the heads up on these.

 

[Dark Sith Lord]

Fantastic Haul Benny. Love the probot, and the two Droids MOCs. Awesome pickups

A nice selection of autos there Grant and those Cardbacks do look extra minty!

Great pickup on that Lumat too Edd at a bargain price too IMO

 

[theforceuk]

Love the Lumat very Mint.

I never seem to post enough in this thread, so here's a few recent scores for my vintage paperwork fetish...

1. L'Empire Contre-Attaque - Faucon Millenaire Instructions (Meccano) - A pretty unique item as this is the only variant featuring the ESB film title!

2. X-Wing Fighter Insert (Palitoy) - Very rare insert added to the early release ESB x-wings boxes. A bargain buy-it-now on ebay. and I'm so glad I spotted it early

pleased to help - I got hit with customs but mine should be arriving today

and great ESB die cast sublevel, I still need an ESB TIE - one day

 

[benny100]

Just a Tig Fromm to go now for the Droids run, stiff limbs and really mint Kea Moll

 

[SublevelStudios]

Nice one Benny, I'm still undecided on collecting a Droids run, loved the cartoon as a kid but the prices on some of the harder to get figures really puts me off. They do look really cool on display, loose and I do like the sculpts. Hope you find Tig soon at decent price

 

[robpmarsh]

cost me a fair bit...but I finally have the 1st Star Wars related item I ever owned as a kid!




you have no idea how happy I am now!!!
