Lovely ROTJ shelf talker Simon, definitely harder to find than the ESB's Vectis are selling! Did all that stuff all come from Elliott A by any chance?? Great nameplate lot too, really nice Hope you do display them!

Thanks Joe. I'm sorry to say I don't know the seller's name. His eBay ID is 19arm73. Worth having a look at the stuff he's sold as I'm sure some of it hasn't been seen on eBay before so quite a good price guide.

Another incredible run of buys from all areas of SW! Jez, I do not fancy your task from picking out items for the podcast from even the last 4 pages. All amazing stuff. Nicky, get all over that Greens Team T, man! It's so cool and so damned limited! Yes, the bag is nicer but I'll bet there's a hell of a lot more of those than the Ts.

Had a hankering for name plates ever since some arrived in a job lot. This lot set me back a small fortune. £1.70 including postage. It single handedly takes care of most of the last 17 which were always going to be the pricey ones. Not sure what I'll do with them. Was thinking about displaying with the loose figures. Having just put them down for this photo, though, I think they'd make a pretty cool collage

These all came from the same seller. He's had some amazing advertising leaflets, stickers and marketing stuff. I was absolutely thrilled to bits with the shelf talker. It's a Palitoy one and, following Vectis selling about 40 ESB ones, is a darned site harder to find. The two Kenner competition shelf talkers are great but not in the greatest condition. They do have full packs of leaflets, though; completely unused. They'll look great displayed though and even though they're Kenner, I'm very happy with them. I was surprised they went as cheap as they did. Probably the condition put off some.

I may be! I'm on a self imposed buying ban but I can always be tempted!

That Droids sticker was a steal. I don't collect Droids or Ewoks at all but I was tempted by that. Nice one on the Jedi Sweepstakes. I was underbidder :lol:

Really happy to add this chap to my trilogo collection this week I have been unsuccessfully trying to hunt one of these down for about 18 months, they're not as rare as the Jawa or Fett but turn up for sale almost as infrequently, partly due to U-grading he's not perfect but is a proud addition!

 

[ScruffyLookingNH]

Epic score, Edd! And he's not far from perfect. Bubble is superb and the card is very tidy, too. Where did you track one down? I see there's one coming up at Vectis. Now you've got one that's one less person I have to scramble over :lol:

I was very lucky, by chance I sent a message to somebody selling some trilogos on Facebook and they said they had one not listed that they would sell. It has a torn hanger, sticker damage and a few pretty big creases, the bubble is heavily dented on the lower left too. But it displays nicely enough

 

[Joe]

Looks great Edd, glad you finally got one!

 

[skywalker]

Some great stuff being posted again.. love that DSD Ed.

 

[skywalker]

Nothing special but I picked up a MINT Luke (in battle poncho).

I have been messing about with my loose figures today photographing them and trying to recreate some of that old advertising magic, just a quick one featuring my new Luke and 2 of my other figures.

I enjoyed doing this and will be doing a few more and also larger group shot / diorama type ones, I will create a thread as I go for anyone interested in having a look.

 

[Michael Sith]

Love that DSD Edd very nice, looks the business congrats on adding that piece 8)

 

[lejackal]

£5.90 including postage - really happy with this one

 

[Andyclarke]

Perfect Kiting weather today!

 

[Grant_C]

Love it. Great finding stuff so cheap.

 

[andygo]

Had this a little while, but the case turned up today. A bit of acrylic makes a lot of difference to a well worn box....

 

[sith-smith]

Quality Kite!!

Great item and an amazing price! 8)

 

[lejackal]

Thanks guys, I feel for the seller to be honest, I won it at £3.70, he only charged £2.20 postage and then it cost him £4.45 to send it, after fees he'll be lucky to have £1 out of it.

Nice piece!

Great buy

 

[Dublinjeff]

Couple of new cardbacks...Palitoy 65a and 65b

 

[theguiltyone]

My latest 2 arrived today...

AFA Y85 79b kenner card and a UKG Y80 POTF. Hoping to get the full Star Wars to POTF Run.

Very nice, now smash 'em out of those cases!

 

[poncho]

Oooooh My first TFP MOC 8) (Kenner 65back)

the card was initially warped ripped and bent and the figure had frosted arms

I Defrosted the arms within an hour and later flattened the card to make it displayable. i took some before after shots

another budget moc for the run

enjoy

 

[steve obi wan]

Nice one in the TFP , he has certainly seen a few battles !

 

[user 5830]

Poncho - great to see another piece saved, great stuff fella!

 

[punk_pat]

Good work Poncho - looks 10 times better! I'm always hesitant with the defrosting process after I accidentally melted a bubble a while back :shock:

 

[Dublinjeff]

Delighted with this little addition..
Palitoy 65b Double Stemmed MOC...Moulded head China COO figure on card.

Comparison shot to the 65b cardback I picked up also. It would appear that these cards came with the Double stem bubble looking at the wear on the loose cardback

Interestingly, here's the Latest figure alongside the MOC 65c cardback. Both definitely manufactured in the UK at Coalville.
65c cardback has the Tri logo bubble with a painted face China COO figure!

 

[BlueDog]

Nice additions fellas, your Rebel Commando focus is coming along nicely Jeff.

Here's my latest and although not toy related it's still a sweet item. This is a Style C Original Australian release cinema poster from 1977. Just need to frame up my ESB and Jedi daybills to go along with it. It's huge.

 

[Joe]

Love the poster Ryan, nicely framed too!

 

[steve obi wan]

Nice poster
