Hey Joe the 8D8 looks good. It looks even better than the pic I remember...

Well it sure is better than I expected! ...In this picture it does look likes its been karate kicked from behind!!







Nice Yoda as well, we should call you the hunter lol
Let us know if you go for it Coco!

Have been eyeing that one up for a while guys and I think he has dropped the price slightly. I'm very tempted and might make him an offer on it :wink:

 

[spoons]

great piece Joe - I've been after a 79 back Han Hoth for a long time...

Coco have you come into some money I'd love to see recent photos of all your collection :shock:

the res in that pic from todd is pretty poor so i dont reckon that would fool you - unless he has scanned a better res one.... for demonstration purposes

Yes...for demonstration purposes :wink:

Couple of new variants for my collection..

Tie fighter pilot No coo with partial coo remaining on both front legs.
Wollf's reference site has the HK one with front leg coo but not this No coo one

Rebel soldier with cream arms and White painted legs
with unpainted top leg - Possible early pbp variant according
to Uli's pbp guide

 

[snagbar]

me and gustie highlighted this one a while ago,
allso the hk one i've got two versions of it.both got the
erased bit's on front of legs but the made in hong kong

[snagbar]

PLUS going through my spare tfp

Strange how the front coo only occurs on the Tie pilot :? Anyone any ideas as to why?

Stick it on ebay as a mega rare variant :twisted: :lol:

 

[gustie]

blame the stamper...


he stamped to COO on the front of the legs then it was filled in like how PBP COO's are removed.

it would have cost alot to throw a mold away coz of that!

Today was a great day for aquisitions. I received my 65a Blue Saber Luke Jedi that I scored on a $60 BIN. The tape on the accessories has come lose but I don't mind that. It is unpunched and a little extra surprise was that it has a snap cape. I also received a couple of cases from Oscarscases which I'll post pics of as soon as I can get some pictures of them.

 

[shawn_k]

Okay here are the cases. I love displaying the mail away figures this way.

 

[Joe]

Nice Shawn!

I still haven't got a loose snap cape Luke!

Great set of cases from Oscar, if you ever order Tru-view for your carded and order too many ( :roll: ) let me know haha
