Latest Acquisitions

[Cazza]

Yes, always great to see the lovely items people pick up! Just like to say thanks to Andy (Cazza) for this 41-back 2-1B. A nice addition to my ESB Kenner MOC line. The item was so well packaged that even Yodel would have struggled to damage it :lol:

[Mini99]

Very nice, I don't think I've ever seen a 90 Tri Logo before. :shock:

 

[Wreck-It Ralph]

Very nice, I don't think I've ever seen a 90 Tri Logo before. :shock:

That's nice to know as I only have one trilogo so it makes it more special.

Me neither!!! 8)

 

[theforceuk]

Wow what a mint Luke X-Wing. Nicest I've ever seen. :shock:

 

[welshwookie]

That's a real beauty. :shock:
It has exactly the same grades as my 20 back LXW.

I bet that's beautiful, I love the Star Wars Card!

 

[Wreck-It Ralph]

Thanks for the positive feedback.

 

[Wreck-It Ralph]

I am not sure why the 45B Hoth Stormtrooper went so high in the recent Vectis Auction I am just glad that I was able to secure a nice example shortly afterwards.

 

[theforceuk]

Wow! Amazing HST, really nice,

 

[Alisdairmac]

From eBay.
I must have been very drunk that night.

My you've put your lock down time to good use!
Great selection, love the gum card display boxes and the patches.

 

[AndyPreston]

Wow Grant, love the cast & crew Yoda stickers!

Here's a couple of bits I've picked up recently - carded Palitoy die-cast Darth Vader TIE Fighter (battered card but still sealed), Palitoy mailer box PDT-8, and a Waddingtons catalogue featuring the Jedi jigsaws.

 

[Wreck-It Ralph]

Wow! Amazing HST, really nice,

Thanks, really happy with it.

 

[theforceuk]

Nice cards [mention]Grant_C[/mention] are you tempted to open a packet and try some bubble gum. Imagine the nostalgia! :lol:

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

I tried some chewing gum from an early 1980s (81) army ration pack the other day, I really wouldn't advise it :lol:


Not as bad as the 1950s chocolate though........ :shock:

Nice finds indeed

 

[Cazza]

Great additions everyone! Love all the posters, mail aways, MOCs etc.

Grant, absolutely love the TOPPs boxes!

 

[spoons]

Great variety on here this last month, [mention]bosk70[/mention] haul wins it for me. Great stuff and the cloak for the jawa is the easy bit to find - gun and bandolier are the tough parts!

Love to see what action man you picked up too

Congrats too to Andy P for a real rarity in that Palitoy DV TIE

Here are my latest, a sealed Scanlite lampshade after the fiasco of my previous lampshade on eBay this was a perfect transaction.

And a Takara C3PO complete with rocket firing chest, sith eyes and swivel head. I can see myself just going for Japanese vintage soon, such imagination in their toys

 

[Palifan]

Couple of great items there Andy that you don't see very often, just love the oddness of that C-3PO, how his character would have changed if Lucas had gone with that Rocket firing chest idea!

Hello Spoons as requested

Surprised the jawa gun and bandolier were there i'm hoping he may find some more loft goodies, always regretted selling my childhood actionman toys in the early 90's, had a lot of 60's stuff from my uncle all gone now , Apollo, south pole etc so just started re collecting bits and pieces for a bit of fun nothing serious, the command bunker sounds work again after some re capping all the bits are well played with and had to do the usual re attaching the heads. Book was nice and Steve Austin a bonus

That C3P0 is really interesting

Loving the Japanese stuff, the rocket firing C3PO and R2D2 are amongst my favourites.
I've been close to getting the R2 a few times now but have always just missed out...one day.

I discovered there are a few versions of R2 yesterday. There's one in a similar box, and the R2 opens to reveal two rockets - that's the one for me

 

[TheJabbaWookie]

Love the graphics on that Scanlite lampshade [mention]spoons[/mention]

 

[Dr_Ball_MD]

Not much vintage lately but have been getting into collecting the reference books. Got these and some more on the way.

 

[Sundancer Squadron]

A mad supply run into town and a quick hunt, and I mean quick the sheer amount of creatures roaming around is akin to Remaros Dawn of the Dead.

The find of lock down for me...

Not pictured is a dirty Hoth Luke currently in the process of cleaning, and jammed inside the poor Tauntauns belly was his rifle and oddly enough Hans blaster pistol. :lol:


Anyone got an inner sleeve? I assume the Palitoy and kenner inners would be the same?

Well chuffed 8)

 

[Cardbackkid]

My latest buy ... polish bootleg prune face that actually features in the polish bootleg book far far away.
