My Latest from Vectis (apologies...not had energy to take own pic :roll: )

Awesome Gary :o Have never seen a 45b example b4, this one certainly went to the right home :)
 
Thanks guys. I wonder if the 'bubble lift' on the bottom left put people off slightly??? It's very slight, you can barely get your finger nail under it and the bubble sits tight to the card, the card is very nice also, so overall I'm really happy :D
 
Lots more amazing items, the Jawa and Lukenate outstanding and Inwas watching that Hoth Commander too Simon - a great deal!

James' Action Man X-Wing is something else
 
With the 41 back Luke and the 45b Jawa making appearances within a handful of posts of each other I think I need a lie down. Just stunning.

Love the TFP and R5, too. So damned nice.
 
Wow, some amazing pick up, especially the Palitoys!!

Mine bring the level down a bit, more in the bargain buy area!

I got back from celebration and thought the wife would be chuffed I'd not bought anything vintage, but these buggers had arrived whilst I was away so was still in the dog house :D

Then got an absolute bargain (in my eyes) on Sunday...

Hi all,

Some of you have probably already seen this elsewhere, but as these finds practically never happen to me I have to share! Got a phone call out of the blue from someone local who'd seen an old wanted ad of mine on a general sales website. They said they were moving house and had dug out an old Star Wars collection which belonged to the caller's brother. Her brother was never that keen on SW, so he would just remove the packaging then basically stow the stuff away. He now lived abroad and apparently didn't care what happened to the lot, so I was asked to come over for a quick sale. This is what I got:

All mint, complete, and unplayed with. Even included a trilogo Fett and some POTF.

I did inform them that they would make more money by splitting the lot up, but they were just looking to get rid of it. I ended up giving them a reasonable offer, which they happily accepted. I plan to sell off most of the figures, but the AT-AT's a keeper; box fresh and no discolouration on chin guns or body/legs.

What are the chances, here in tiny Norway? Chuffed to bits :D

Cheers,
Martin
 
Here's my latest MOC, a peach of a trilogo Logray from the last Vectis auction. Big thanks to Rich for posting it to me without even asking, top man :)

Amazing haul! Let me know if you want to part with the trilogo Fett :)
 
Mwahaha "doghouse" :D

Great pick ups all round. It's always nice to see some "reality" buys after seeing the crazy items changing hands in FB.
 
£22! Absolute steal :shock: :o Nice Squid and love the Luke Gunner as well 8)

Darthin, that's a fantastic find. Everything looks in fabulous nick and the AT-AT definitely looks like a keeper.

Very nice Logray Ed 8)

Just acquired this lovely 31 bk Leia from Lee Gregory. Very, very happy with it- thanks Lee! 8)

Nice one Cazza, glad it's gone to a good home. Really wanted this bit couldn't justify it after all my other recent purchases.

Thanks Ed- I couldn't really justify it either, but I just love that figure/cardback combo- just couldn't resist :lol:
