That's gotta be the very first one iv'e ever seen with a good bubble, with the size of them bubbles i'm surprised a nice one even exists.

Well done!

Fantastic condition, I love the randomness of the figures in these packs.
Nice one.

gorgeous 2 pack

 

[Cardbackkid]

That two pack is a gem !

 

[user 5830]

Not sure I've ever seen one so crisp.. my two are very good but still have 'soft corners' - Great pickup

 

[indianawars]

Very, very nice Ed. You don't see quality like that every day.

 

[roundster]

That 2 pack is a beauty!!

This is my latest, made in Spain Return Of The Jedi Hammerhead!

Great unpunched card and bubble has no damage

For those who like their hammerhead variations, he is an eyes forward figure! Pretty cool 8)

Steve obi wan is on fire :shock:

Loving the ewok transparency and the pal Lando and tri-luke are in amazing conditoon too.

My target this year was to pick up some die cast pre-production and I wasn't expecting to have done that before Jan was out. This is a 1st shot TIE wing with alternative/unproduced solar panels (no grooves). The COA is bizarre, you have to contact Tom Derby with the submitters name to confirm authenticity - very cloak and dagger.

This first shot Die Cast Tie Fighter Wing is in the perfect collection. Looking forward to seeing what other pre production items 2018 will bring. Good stuff Spoons.

Those are fantastic. I remember Grant's final TVR podcast interview with Jonathan McElwain and the Grubee's stuff was mentioned. Thanks for all the great info.

I've had two additions this week which, on the face of it, are nothing special. First is a really nice loose Han Bespin which means I've finally completed my loose first 77 run... 24 years after starting it with Han Trench and Leia Poncho! I've a few to upgrade before I decide whether or not to venture into last 17 territory.

Second is the little beauty below. It's just a bog-standard boxed Kenner MISB Speeder Bike with some damage. What's special to me about it are the price stickers - it's originally from one of my childhood toy shops, seemingly from around the time they were clearing out their Star Wars stock. I've known about this particular item for a while and thought I'd managed to get it a year ago, but the seller stopped communicating. It's just popped back up for sale and though I've definitely overpaid on it I couldn't let it slip away again. There were a few anxious days waiting for it to arrive, but it finally came yesterday. It's a bit more beat up than it looks in the pictures but I'm really really pleased with it. That's two down, three to go in the 'local price sticker' focus!

 

[hellhippie]

very cool on the childhood store stickers.

Finally added a plush trilogo Ewok to my collection! Have always liked these.

Nice Ewok Ed but do I spot a Profile Hip Hop 12" in your collection?

[chipsteak]

I'm all for the childhood shop stickers.

That's hard-core nostalgic material - I consider things like that pretty much priceless.

 

[BruceW]

After what seems like forever, I finally got something for the Leia focus! Princess Leia Helix eraser acquired through a smooth trade with a great UK collector on Facebook. These are nearly impossible to find in the states.

Looks great paired with my Helix pencil case!

I bought the case a few years ago from a Rancho Obi-Wan charity auction (sometimes Steve does sell duplicates, when he finally figures out he has more than one of something :lol: ). I like that the case still has the price sticker on it.

Cheers!

 

[TheJabbaWookie]

Lovely pick up Bruce. Something stunningly beautiful about the simplicity of white. Leia is one of my favourite figures and your Leia focus is truly awesome. Nice to see you back posting on the forum.

 

[coomber75]

great leia items

Yes good spot, I've got lots of late 80s and early 90s classics

Great score on the childhood price sticker...and on a Speeder Bike to boot.... I've got one from my childhood store too... to me it's priceless no matter what you paid.

Good man, looks like we have more in common than just Star Wars, just love some of those classic 12's.

Very excited today. Got this little beauty in the post. My first 20/21 Back and totally loving the fact that it's a Tusken Raider. Thought it would never happen after missing out on Jez' Luke Xwing Pilot and a few others recently. 1 Down, only another 20 to collect!
