Ah, you got the Pali At At driver. Well done. I went for that too but went over what I had in mind.

New addition to the Meccano Tri-logo collection: double-stemmed bubble Lobot with wrong weapon (Han's blaster).
This bubble was used on the early French tri-logo releases (like Madine...). Same bubble as the ones used on ROTJ Palitoy 45 back and Meccano 65 back MOC's.
Happy to add this tough one!

Bit of a grail piece for me, thanks to Todd Chamberlain for selling it to me and shipping it over. Thanks also to Christian for the kick ass acrylic.

Great pieces always pop in the GW Acrylic. I was over the moon the day I put mine in that same case - lovely item, congrats 8)
 
Another one for the KayBee collection, Trilogo Imperial Dignitary from Iain and a lovely X-Wing from Andy (Cazza) - I'm sure there must be a cheaper way to collect Topps cards but thanks very much for the extras mate! Thanks to both, and Neil for his excellent packing again.

Great work on these guides Jeff plus it's good to see beaters with plenty more to offer.

Anyway, forgot this modest addition in my earlier post, thanks to Jeff for this little gem!

 
Some nice buys.

Love the wrong gone Lobot!! 8)

I had an imperial Dignitary as a kid which came with a weapon! Pointless considering he couldn't hold anything!
 
Great seeing all the buys from all

For my latest I must do a shout out for Arwin (snlmace) for his generosity
During one of our chats I mentioned I was hunting this poster and he was kind enough to offer one to me, posted all the way from The Netherlands to sunny Australia
After I opened it up I found not only a great condition poster but some great little Ewok cards and a Sw themed postcard
Big thanks mate, I owe you some more Tim Tams :D

Next up a MIB (all contents in sealed baggies) Hoth Wampa Cave

Bit of left over sticker residue; I'd have preferred it to have been left on, but a previous owner clearly had other ideas.. not sure now whether to attempt to finish the job they started...
 
New moc at nice price from a local friend collector. I've been told since it's a German card too so I think I need to read up more on joe's Tri logo info site.Anyway here it is !ricky ⚒

Nice tri-logo R5-D4 Shaky_BobaFett!
It is indeed a German Parker release. You can tell by the shape of the bubble (smaller with rounded corners) similar to the Meccano bubble, as well as by the shape of the punch hole which is thinner than Palitoy's and peaked (looks like a triangle). This punch shape is specific to German Parker.

Had this beauty arrive in today courtesy of Chris aka 'jedi_masters'.....Delighted with this addition to the ROTJ collection...Mint figure with weapon still taped. Love the look of the Double stem bubble!

Been quite awhile since I've added anything. I'm glad to say I've finally found a Luke Jedi with a SKU sticker. I know this is one of those things that only a focus collector really cares about. To put it in perspective, I've only seen 2, this one included, and have been on the hunt for about 5 years now.

Just going through a few of the older posts and this one resonated. I completely get it Shawn, I had the same experience with Vader and finally found on one recently. Big thanks to Frank for helping me get this guy down under too.

My story is almost exactly the same as yours too Shawn - looking for years, only seen one or two, and then finally I find one. Not terribly exciting if you're not a focus collector :)

Cheers,
Pat
 
Some more nice pieces!


Those micro sets are great. I dipped a toe in last year and am now up to my neck!! :D
