Latest Acquisitions

[TheJabbaWookie]

I haven't added much here of late since pandemic prices have forced me to stop collecting vehicles and playsets and 20/21 backs which had been my side focus for a while.

Instead I'd turned to loose variant collecting and most of that is run of the mill stuff and not worthy of a mention on here.

But I have just picked up this lovely PBP IG-88 which sits beautifully with his Kenner mates.

Like some others I haven't really bought much in the past 12 months, but I did snag this earlier in the year. It came from the US and has been at my brother's for about 6 months before I had him send it over. It is/was a 21c but the sticker on the front's been removed, leaving a lot of damage in its wake. The POP area of the sticker on the back has also been removed with similar results. It's a shame as it's a really nice MOC otherwise. I'm now looking to see how feasible a repair is...

Love the Chewie shame about the sticker, rather than repair, how about if anyone has an original sticker ( or get a badly damaged cardback with the sticker in tact) lift the sticker with lighter fluid and attach to the Chewie would at least be original still ( you would still have litho tear above the sticker) but may look better….just an idea ??

Good call, doesn't have to be a Chewie card then. I'll keep an eye out!

Managed to add a Dengar and CCP to the MOC close to debut run. @Michael Sith very kindly posted me a Michael Sith original, amazing gesture!

Some good pick ups all.
keep posting them as love to see.
A couple of my newer additions.

 

[edd_jedi]

It's been a while since I've added to my Palitoy Jedi run, so was very happy to pick this up. Doesn't look like much but they are pretty scarce these days.

This was one of my first pick ups from the Jedi line back in the day (although probably not the same card back as yours). I've always liked this figure and great addition Edd.

Picked up this unusual variant Luke Farmboy today

 

[Cazza]

Nice additions, fellas! Gammy's definitely one of my fav ROTJ figures Nice Luke as well.

Not been buying much at all lately- the few items I have left on my list are proving very elusive! I did however get this nice, complete UK ROTJ sticker album. Was just about the only kid in my class who didn't have one, but my friends gave me their spares, which I stuck into my scrap book. Nice to have the album after all these years!

Nice pick up Andy and I still have my completed one that I did back in the day. This was the last time that I remember swapping stickers in the playground to get the full run

And so it begins…….
After looking out my loose vintage figures, finding this forum & getting some good advice on here, I've decided on a project to match them to cardbacks.
Picked these up at the weekend & just been delivered. By no way minty but for what I want to do they will more than do
7 down, 41 to go



Will get some pics up with figures later

A rare new addition for me, first Gunner moc I've owned, nice deep blacks on the card still too.

 

[Lee77]

Managed to finally complete the first 96 this week with the addition of these 2. Luke doesn't have a true black blaster but I'm not prepared to pay £200 for it.

Great achievement completing a loose run and what a pair to finish on !

Excellent, congratulations! Great feeling to compete a run. On Trilogo cards, many Luke's were packed with a blue black blaster, so in my view you're all good!

 

[Lee77]

Wanted to say thanks to Ian (Palifan) for hooking me up with his friend to purchase this. The way prices have gone since I started collecting again, I never thought that I'd be able to get one, but proof that if you hold out, there are good deals to be had. Had to get a spare blaster but the figure is the same one that the cape came with originally. Thanks again Ian. And no, it won't be getting stuck in an acrylic coffin!

Thanks Lee and I'm just glad that an old member on here picked this up as it's such a lovely example and a massive bonus to know that it will stay loose as it should be

Looks so nice with the blaster and I'm sure the little fellow will be very happy in his new home!

[Cazza]

That's a very good purchase!

 

[colin310]

Latest add for me……Lando Skiff ROTJ 65 cardback. Good condition, with original price sticker.

Upgrade on a very battered tri logo a wing i had, this is about the best tri logo I have, unpunched and near faultless bubble.

Merry Christmas folks
Delighted to get some vintage in my stocking today.
Lovely R2-D2 model kit with sealed contents and a cracking Cloud car pilot. My twin pod cloud car will now have 2 pilots
Hope you're all having a great day

 

[Michael Sith]

Nice Merry Christmas mate

 

[quins]

Nice.
Were those kits to be clipped to each other or glued like old Airfix kits ?
Thanks

Haven't posted here for a long time but got a few bits in that I thought people might like. Have no interest in the toys anymore but still like other areas, especially paperwork etc. Don't get me wrong I love the toys but get so much from other stuff nowadays. He boxes I have wanted for years but never found one, but a good friend helped me to obtain these. However battered they are, they are history and its important to me that I keep themin one piece. I've been offered Palitoy ones in the past but they don't have the print on them like the Kenner ones. I love the writing too. I will be getting cases made for the boxes and am tempted to fill with moc figures.
