A Trilogo TIE Pilot ended the other night on Ebay.com for $250 Grant, by the time I spotted it someone had hit the BIN sorry.

I think you have every chance of picking one up for a more reasonable price though you just gotta wait it out..in fact there have been 3 in the last couple of weeks on ebay as well so it's not like they are as rare as hens teeth..

Hi mate.

What is the one in the middle? I have one exactly the same andI though it was a repro one. Its a Palitoy 45 back, very glossy and slick seal. The bubble is a TWIN STEM and looks okay and the weapon was never taped. It just feels all wrong... Is this another school day?!

Cheers,

Bram

Thanks the heads up guys. I was watching one of those. Be nice to get one-

Just going to have to wait for more funds.

Thanks again.

Thanks mate, this is from December 2012. I'll update again soon.

 

[lejackal]

They might be old photos but the collection looks great! Random question - Which is officially the debut card for this, the Palitoy 45 back or the Kenner 47 back? Or does the phrase debut card relate to the character debut on each line?

Thanks!

Carl

 

[Grant_C]

I would say Kenner they came out at the same time, but im sure the Americans got it first logistically on the 47a

 

[lejackal]

I suppose the logical second part of the question is why 45 in the UK and 47 in the US. Did Palitoy miss/skip a couple a couple of the figures?

 

[Grant_C]

That's a great question.

Will have to go and have a look.

I'm sure I've seen a Tie Fighter Pilot on a 45 back Kenner card on eBay, about 18 months ago. Might have been Canadian though?It's also worth noting that Zuckus and TFP were the two new editions on the Kenner 47 back but only TFP can be found on the 47 Back out of the two.

The debut card for all figures for me is the US Kenner release, which is likely correct. But each to their own. I mean you could collect each figure on the debut card for each country! :shock:

 

[Grant_C]

Please let me know if you see a Canadian TFP. I would LOVE to meet it!
