Thanks guy's. It's all gone a bit quiet at the moment as i currently cannot see any cards that fit my criteria for the right price so the hunt for a few more continues. :D I nearly have a full set of the Jedi specific figures :)
 
I wouldn't normally post a picture of one carded figure but i finally managed to track down a 65 back A Weequay :D 8)
The amount of other so called rare cards i have seen for sale at far more ££ than this guy. Maybe a lot of Weequay's have been opened over the past few years but trying to find one at a decent price and condition was a lot harder than i thought. I thought this guy would have been a peg warmer of the day.

Nice card, why were you specifically after a 65A? I've got a 77, looks the same. Was it down to it being rarer or are you only collecting 65's? Just curious :wink:
I don't know if it's rarer but i wanted the 65 back A as it was Weequay's debut card sop trying to stick to that if possible (but it is not consistent in my collection by any means). The card and bubble condition are far more important to me than the back, although i do prefer the 65 back to the 77 backs.
 
It has been a few months since i added anything significant but like a bus a few come along at once. Started on the first 12 on ROTJ cards, or ten of the first 12 as R2D2 and C3PO are different versions than their original guise. 77 back DSC and Stormtrooper, and 65 back Darth Vader.

I have updated the first page with a few more cards i have received over the past couple of weeks. It is mainly these four additions to the ROTJ 12 back focus i have had of late.

quality stuff Inzaman. Great idea for a run and such nice looking cards 8)
 
Great first 12 update, their starting to go for silly money now, or have been for while on Jedi cards. Also know what your saying about the Weequay on a 65 a in the right condition and for the right price it takes patience. I waited best part of 2 years for a 77 a Emperor to come along.
 
Great collection, I was ESB kid myself, but my interest did flow over into the first ROTJ wave (65 backs) before my younger brother took over. It's great to focus on something from your childhood.
 
Lovely collection of ROTJ MOCs. They do look really mint.
Best of luck getting the Luke and Leia at a good price, they can fetch a fair bit now on ROTJ cards.
Congrats on a great showcase.

Thanks, the cards all look really nice in person also for the most part. There are a couple i might change but not too anal about it as i am pretty happy with all the ones i have so far.

I have resigned myself to the fact that for Luke and Leia, as i did with Han, i am going to have to pay a serious premium but i do want them in my collection however.
