Latest Acquisitions

[aussiejames]

I could only afford one tri rebel soldier, the second one "fell off the back of a truck" & hurt his shoulder but still made it all the way over to me from Germany It's the best deal I've ever had. Not quite a $100 DT Luke & Blue Snag but still made me very happy when I opened the box EDIT great mint figures Joe.

 

[Capetown]

Very nice Joe, they look amazing. 8) Yours too James. Will be on the hunt for a Tri Rebel Soldier now too!

 

[Grant]

There have been to many posts with new items so I will say one big congrats to all of you on scoring some great items. Kudos to you all and keep them pictures coming of all the new stuff.

Thank you.

Grant. 8)

 

[Joe]

Nice tri soldiers James, can't believe you have both! Thanks everyone Really happy with my small purchases at the moment!

 

[Josh]

Great buys people.

 

[weasel]

...................$100 for the pair!

What a bargain!

Congrats on the loose figs as well Joe, how's the loose colection coming along?

 

[Joe]

At a standstill at the moment weasel, I have 85 or so solid C9's , these were just the ones I had repro weapons for or were a bit shabby looking.

I still need a few last 17's (namely the expensive ones) , feels weird now after so many years, got a display coming so I kind of have to complete it... not sure what's next after I find that 79 bk 8d8 and the loose figures I need. Maybe go on holiday with my money instead of spending it on plastic

 

[weasel]

How many are you short?
I assume tracking down non repro weapons is a pain in the ass!?

 

[jaymassive619]

Got a mint Bossk to replace my old one, Endor blaster and Han solo blaster in the post today
View attachment 1
So that completes 3 figures!

Great looking figures Joe!

Oh and Joe can you do some macro shots of your repros with a white background for me?

Jay

 

[Joe]

Will do Jay!

Weez - yeah it can be a bit pants checking for repros, still lots of originals out there though and some decent sellers that don't price them as high as a complete figure.. (another thing that pisses me off! for example - Yak face and Nikto have the same weapon, you can buy a complete nikto for $6-8 yet if the seller calls the weapon a yak face weapon and sells it on its own its suddenly worth $15-20!?)

Your right about the Yak face weapon Joe i know guy who bought 4 complete nikitos sold the 4 staffs seperately as Yak Staffs then sold the nikitos seperately without weapons and ended up making 400% profit lol

You probably have it but ill PM you my email addy for the photos 8)

 

[shawn_k]

James, nice pick up on the variant figures. They all look great.


Joe, excellent looking Bossk. Glad you got some original weapons to help weed out those repros.

 

[spoons]

[Paul-itoy]

Front centre arrived today.....
Trilogo Boba Fett.

The best paint of the three I now own, but sadly missing a thumb.

Has anybody ever noticed the rocket difference on the Trilogo Fetts? Although it it fixed in place it is not glued like the regular Fett and has a certain amount of 'play'.

 

[plantman]

only difference i have noticed is when people have tried to remove it, i think all the Tri rockets are the same, if your after a nice Tri i have one currently on feebay if you are interested? (ebay ID plant1980)

postie dropped this off this morning.Shame about the yellow bubble but when it comes to palitoy's beggars can't be choosers.Reckon i'm gonna send it away for grading as it's a beauty.

 

[plantman]

Lee, nice chewie mate. IS this the one from ebay that finished the other day?? I was watching it just to se what it went for. I was not going to bid as i have had a lot if financial outlay for a few items in the last few months.

Steve

 

[Lee Gregory]

yeah it was steve,thought I was going to get a bargain at £150 with a few seconds to go but someone wanted it quite badly also as it went for a fair bit more.You will know how much mate if you were watching it.But Palitoy cards don't come up that often so you have got nothing to compare against.
Think Gary or Jason should do a Palitoy price guide. :mrgreen:
Only joking lads

 

[stevemac1976]

Lee,

I still think it went for a good price. If i had not made the purchases that i have done in the last few months (some of which are on payment plans with a few months to go!!!!) i am sure i woudl have been bidding on it as well and i think it may have goen for a bit more. NIce score though and as usual if you ever decide to sell i coudl give it a good home - just not for a few months!! :lol:

Steve

 

[Lee Gregory]

cheers steve i'll keep you in mind if i ever part with it.

Yeah I was prepared to go a fair bit higher than what I paid but it does piss you off when you see an item rise by £100's in the last few seconds,unles it's yours that you're selling of course,then it's sweet.

 

[Grant]

Hello,

Paul - Quality Fett mate.

Lee - Lovely Chewie you have there.

Congrats on both pieces lads.

Grant.

 

[shawn_k]

Nice scores guys.

Paul, nice set of Tri Fetts.

Lee, that Chewie is on a very nice looking card.

 

[20backdPb]

Shame about the yellow bubble but when it comes to palitoy's beggars can't be choosers.

I know what you mean Lee: My 12 back Chewbacca has slight yellow bubble but there are not many Palitoy 12 backs or 45 back Chewbacca's out there. so cant be too fussy.
I still think its a great score at a very good price.

 

[Lee Gregory]

Thanks for the comments lads,if I decide to send away for grading I'll post a pic upon it's return.

 

[spoons]

Very nice Lee - you don't see SW characters on Pal ESB cards very often - and certainly not in that condition 8)

 

[DarthStanley]

Paul-nice Boba's

Lee-nice Chewie you've got there

Thanks for sharing
