[Joe]

Blimey that arrived quickly! Nice one, looks like he didn't try to escape the bubble either :lol:

Nice yoda - coco will be green with envy

 

[Bollux]

the top of the bubble is ******...completely split and he can almost escape but not quite and there is pen touch up where there was a price sticker

 

[shawn_k]

Just got two of the coin holders I mentioned in the coin reference thread. I think they look pretty decent. Here is the 6 version loaded with the Ewoks coins. They were hard to get a decent pic off with the reflection. The coins fit a little loose, but not bad. I'm pretty happy with the thing for $7.

 

[Bollux]

looks great mate!

 

[shawn_k]

looks great mate!

Cheers! That Yoda looks pretty good too. Shame about the bubble damage. Good thing the little critter didn't escape during shipping.

:lol: :lol: :lol: Do it :wink: :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[stevemac1976]

I knw you guys have seen these items already but i wanted to show you my display technique. The acrylic tray is the one i bought from Paul Moss as advertised in the ebay section. I then bought some foam board and covered it in some really cool shiny silver material.

What do you think?????

Steve

P.S. I am waiting for one more item to arrive - hopefully by next weekend and then i will be taking some new pics of the collection.

 

[Bollux]

that Chewies a load of **** mate, its fell apart! get some superglue on it!

 

[Bollux]

So I shouldn't u grade it then Grant?

:lol: :lol: :lol: Do it :wink: :lol: :lol: :lol:

how much would a u85 go for you reckon?

 

[Grant]

Steve Bollux is right. Stop limelighting those shity broken Chewie toys. :wink: If Im your SS this year I will send you over a complete Chewie and since im a good guy just send me over that broken one so its out of your way. :lol:

Bollux Id say that Yodas worth twice as much in a little plastic prison with sticker stipulating a U on it as instead of its 25 year old original packaging. :lol:

Grant, i will have to have a think about that!!! :roll: I have not yet signed up to the Secret Santa. 8)

 

[Joe]

I like the idea of having them laying down Steve, not too keen on the silver foam pad behind, perhaps a different colour would have worked well?

Also : that is a long display case, may I ask if your aim is to fill that space with 3 3/4 vintage prototypes?!

 

[stevemac1976]

Joe, thanks fir the comments mate. The colour used does look better in real life and it looks good in the glass display cases.

As for the future - I do intend to pick up a few more protos for the focus as and when I can. Next up is an engineering pilot or 2.

Steve

 

[spoons]

I'm with Joe on this - I'd ditch the silver backing piece. Acrylc will show them off better. Does the tray display flat or upright?
