Pailtoy figures with replaced nameplates.

[_Lee_]

Just wanted to ask you lads a question.Around 8 years ago,i purchased arpund 5-6 Palitoy 41backs from Toytoni that had the nametags removed BUT they were expertly replaced from another cardback.The ones i owned(Han Hoth,21B,Bespin Guard,Ugnaught and two others)i later sold to Bernie Holmes,and i know that he sold them a few years back.Im just curious to see who owns them now?I know Bernie let them all go for a very cheap price and some twat called DarthPlagueis on Ebay got them all-i think.And he was asking stupid money for them.

Would be good to see them again if someone here owns one.

Darth Plagueis sold some at memorabilia as Mint examples. A guy was trying to recoup his money for an Imperial Commander on ebay a while back, he didn't check it properly til he got home.

I occasionally see others floating about and I assume the owners were conned too

Was there a Luke Bespin amongst them?

Not that i know of Gary.I bought six from Toni around 2002/2003 time.They were amazingly restored,but to know that someone ripped people off with them as MOC is ****ing wrong.

Was there a Luke Bespin amongst them?

That DP is a twat with his descriptions IMO always describing everything as c9-10 when there are creases to the card or dings to the bubble.

Oh yeah back on topic,I aint got any.

If they are just name replaced, then technically they are still MOC, though sadly damaged

I know however some at least were sold as MOC without the name replacement being mentioned, which is wrong to say the least.
