red caped luke jedi... nver heard of one of those! but is there such a version!

wondered if that cape was handmade or dyed?

its on Ã'£26 already! and no mention of COO stamps...

no idea.....but its easy to ripp off.....done one before...get some red food colouring and soak the cape in it over night then place somewhere to dry , brush the material with a firm brush and .......heapressto!!


job done ! :lol: :lol: :lol:

My graded Luke Jedi with the molded face has the same coloured cape but his is a Snap-fast! I honestly believe the colour of his cape is the reason he got the low grade as the figure was almost mint but the cape appears to have faded :shock:

 

[cocofstar]

Hmmm, was just having a closer look at the figure on eBay and I now think its dyed! Please ignore my last post :lol:

 

[craignwo4life]

He's listed it as a Ledy and I have both types of LL capes, one fluffy and one smooth but I wouldn't say the fluffy one was "red".

I was watching this, but I couldnt find any similar pieces on any of the variation sites, and I know nothing about Ledy figures, so I decided to pass on it, cape looks too much like a home made job for my liking.

have you checked who else has bid on it, do they usually know what they are bidding on?

have you asked oscar, or gus about it?

my view of such pieces is, if you win it, and are not happy, there are enough others looking at it, that you can always sell it on! better than regreting it if it turns out to be legit.

one of his conditions with paypal for my refund is that im banned from bidding from him again lol

And there was you all set to bid on a few more of his auctions! :lol:

 

[gustie]

hah innit - NOT and most of u guys have taken heed too....

i just wondered if there was another variant for me to look out for from a not idiot seller

 

[Ron]

Gustie hopefully enough people know about this seller. Not to bid on his stuff

 

[gustie]

good but its nice to have a reminder rant now and then lol

 

[gustie]

it went for Ã'£52!

 

[craignwo4life]

If the saber was a genuine Ledy I would have paid Ã'£15 just for that !! :wink:

If you keep outing his auctions Gustie he is going to keep getting high prices !! :lol:

 

[gustie]

not if people read the rest of the threads...

 

[craignwo4life]

But when he does sell genuine stuff you might be missing out..!! :wink:
