Latest Acquisitions

[TrisCompany]

Yes it's the one that was listed on eBay UK earlier this week. Managed to do some A-grade haggling

Strong. I saw that, didn't thing it would hang around long when he reduced it so quickly. I'd love one of those.

Great Tri-logo fest! That Rancor, Teebo and TFP are in superb condition And that Luke Jedi is brilliant, no idea that mix of card and bubble existed.

Loving that Falcon box; "L'Empire Contre-Attaque"!

Luke Jedi Trilogo with a meccano bubble (and one of Iain's very nice cases :wink: )

I hate being "that guy" that corrects people but...I have to haha! The bubble on your Luke Jedi is also commonly found on Palitoy Trilogos too and actually, that's more likely what yours is - sorry!

If you are a member of my forum you can read some extra information about how similar some early Palitoy Trilogos are to Meccano Trilogos: http://forum.trilogo.info/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=557

Nice buys guys!

 

[stratpack]

:lol: No worries, I stand corrected!
It was the condition of the bubble that attracted me so before I bid I asked if it was a reseal, repro etc. I was assured it was original.
I then checked a few of the trilogo card sites and wrongly assumed it was meccano related. :mrgreen: I'm a novice at card variations generally but trilogo variations seem like an absolute nightmare!

 

[Joe]

Oh yes all original and very nice! Thanks for not telling me to do one :lol:

 

[steve obi wan]

Do one :lol: :lol:

I've been away at San Diego Comic Con and while there I visited the offices of Lucasfilm in San Francisco. Had a great time there and am more or less back in the normal routine but I've still been purchasing while away.

The other swag from the trip will come later but here's some recently purchased cardbacks:

 

[timbo72]

Sweet cardbacks, love the tri logos

 

[user 5830]

The IG-88 run of cardbacks is sweet!

 

[theforceuk]

Nice cardbacks, Ig-88 city. :shock:

 

[benny100]

Kenner Canada MISB ISP-6

 

[benny100]

So pleased to finally get one of these, 77 back offer less Luke Hoth!

 

[indianawars]

That Luke Hoth MOC is awesome! I'm actually jealous of that now :evil:

 

[steve obi wan]

Nice moc

 

[Carl Waterworth]

A couple of new purchesses!

AFA80 Black Bespin Secretary Guard 45 - C

POTF Amanaman

 

[sith-smith]

Some great buys there guys.

 

[spoons]

Some great buys there guys.

ditto!

Not strictly vintage but I finally bit the bullet and bought a Gentle Giant Han Hoth today at Donny Toy Fair - it is huge! The vintage Han is just for scale

 

[ScruffyLookingNH]

Those GG figures are so cool. I am desperately trying not to get started on them. If they ended up doing all the figures made it would end up costing around £5,000. Mind you.....every single GG or a MOC POTF Yak Face? If you you were lucky.

Bring on the Gentle Giants!

 

[hellhippie]

nice pups everyone

 

[steve obi wan]

Nice one , good to get a few to enhance a SW collection

 

[edd_jedi]

Bloody hell, didn't realise they were that big! I thought the cardback was about the same size as a normal one and the figure was just bigger :lol:

 

[boba76]

I have recently added Zuckuss to my ESB collection. This is the debut Kenner card for Zuckuss (48A) and hard to find offerless. He graded AFA 85 with two subs of 90.

 

[chrisfnx]

Been waiting for this for a while, really pleased.

 

[user 5830]

My latest item for the Han Focus courtesy of Iain having a spare in his collection!

 

[stormcab]

Great Falcon box, always love the way other languages bastardize the wording lol. Just noticed the Falcon battery compartment open. I know it's just a little thing, but that memories flooding back.

Great MOCs, that Bespin Guard Black looks familiar.... oh yes that's right, it was mine for 20 years. haha. Glad it's got a good home.

 

[SOJ]

Been waiting for this for a while, really pleased.

Very very nice

 

[steve obi wan]

Some nice moc's , love the At At driver was one of my 1st figures

 

[steve obi wan]

Love the blaster :shock:

 

[robpmarsh]

not posted anything new for a while:

The first ever figure I bought myself with my 1st saturday job pay....centrepiece of my collection! Thanks to Rhyfelyser for a great deal.

A bit of a reseal for me, bubble was 80% attached so I bought a complete Luke Jedi fig to complete it

Absolute steal on eBay and even has the unattached sticker-sheet inside!

Bit of a Frankenstein re-card project....had these spare figs so thought 'what the hell'. Thanks to Dublinjeff for the card.

Thanks to Frank for this great 3PO baggie!

 

[steve obi wan]

Love the hammerhead
