Mail Away Guide

[shawn_k]

Hello everyone!

I just wanted to announce a little update/project I've been working. I've received great feedback from various collectors that have used my mailaway guide and appreciate all the comments. It's been great to see that a little project I started as a way to document/remember my own findings has now become a resource for all.

I finally decided, it was time to break that info down into a separate pages on a website, rather than the big long scrollable page on my collection site. I hope everyone likes this new format and that it helps make finding what you need quicker. There's some new findings/updates on the pages, so even those that are familiar with most of it already, might want to have a look around.

The new URL is http://swspaceclub.com/mailaways/, but you can also just click on the special offer graphic above to get there.

I hope everyone enjoys the update.

I have little interest in purchasing these but found the site really interesting from a historical point of view. Well done!

Hi Shawn, the new format looks great. Didn't you have a Palitoy Numb or another Palitoy in the last guide, are you going to be adding the foreign mailers or sticking to Kenner?

Thanks for the comments and it's good to hear you're liking the site.

My guide on TIG did include foreign mailers. Here's the link again for that one

I might expand it at some point, but I want to contact the contributors before using their pictures to make sure they're okay with it on the new site. Some of them aren't as active as they were, so that might prove to be a little bit of a challenge.

Excellent work Shawn & a credit to you m8, I for one will be making great use of it as did I with your previous guide, I to would love to see palitoy & tol toys mailers included in your guide & am more than happy to share mine with you if you need photos or details.

Have you any info on the Palitoy mail away Dengar offer as i have never managed to find a sealed one or seen a graded example & would love some more information regarding that one in particular.

You've updated the guide on TIG since I last had a look Shawn and there's a lot more foreign on there and looking good. Would be great if you could add those pictures and info to the new format. Your welcome to use any of my pictures at any time but I'm sure Frank has everything mailer wise that I do.

Frank, there's a picture of the Dengar Palitoy/Parker in Shawns link.

Shawn, I've recently posted scans of the free figure offers on TIG, these have been scanned by myself so feel free to add them to your mailer guide as promotional material.

do.

Frank, there's a picture of the Dengar Palitoy/Parker in Shawns link.

I did see that, but would love some conformation on this if Shawn has any, IE did it come from a sealed box, or is it know as fact that that baggie version came with the mail away Dengar, - I feel ashamed to ask in a way with Dengar being the only mail away figure I got as a kid, sadly my memory of which baggie is none existent
