SOLDSOLDSOLD

Tri-Logo Yak Face (seems to be the rounded edged Meccano bubble)

Condition of item; Please look at the pictures closely and request additional photos if needed. The bubble is dented and does have two cracks in it, one in top right corner and one in lower left corner, they go vertically. Both are shown below in the pictures. There is also a small lift on the top of the bubble, also shown in the pictures. Neither of these damages are remotely close to being large enough for figure removal at all. The card is unpunched and lies reasonably flat with some small creases and edgewear. The figure obviously is untouched.

Theres a big chance this item was sold new in my native country of Norway

Ive recently downsized my collection so would welcome trade offers or just an offer to purchase the item as is. Items I could be interested in are any Kenner MOC with a SW or ESB cardback, they dont have to be mint at all, volumes over quality is the thing for me atm. Also Force FX lightsabers might be of interest. Part trade is also of interest.
If I were to go for a pure sale, offers are welcome, Im however in no hurry so please, fair offers only.

I would like to specify that I would really like this to go to someone that will appreciate it as a carded figure.

Also please see my feedback thread on SWFUK here http://www.starwarsforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=10992 and as mentioned, if you need additional pictures, dont hesitate to ask and I will do my best to provide them as fast as possible.

Ah, my bad..

Gonna put SOLD on it for now, its also on RS so we will have to see what the market will pay for it

Edited; reason; SOLD

Just don't sell it to that U-Grading scumbag Erik whatever you do

 

[Christian]

Hi Erik,

FWIW I suspect that this might be a Spanish issued TRI Yak Face, rather than Meccano, that might have originally included either a gaaffii stick or black palace blaster.

Good luck with the sale.

Christian

Hi Christian,

This is definitely the Meccano and not the PBP.

You can compare it to a better condition Meccano one here:

Below is the PBP version containing the Gaffi Stick, you can see the bubble while still quite large is actually slightly different to the Meccano.

There is a version with a "miscard" bubble (French origin again) which usually contains the Palace blaster.

 

[Christian]

Ah spot on Joe - that bottom bubble was the one I was thinking of.

Would love to own one of the PBP versions with the gaaffii stick. To my shame I used own one of the Yak with palace blaster but it was U85 Long gone and not of my doing I hasten to add :!:

Hope you're well.

Regards,
Christian

 

[Joe]

We won't hold that U85 against you mate

Doing good here thanks Christian! Will drop you a line about some cases when I get my **** together in the new year!

[jedi_masters]

Well done Erik, hope its gone to a good home!

 

[Joe]

As there were divided opinions on this items worth, can we know what it actually sold for? Many thanks!

 

[PGowdy]

I guess £175. That's what i could see myself offering for it once it was posted at £200. :wink:

Tell us phantom!! :x

I think the price ended up being a price the buyer was happy with

As for the price, I dont think its my decision to make it public as I dont know if the buyer want it.

All I can say is that if it was a contest, Iain would be the one closest to the final price

Wooohooooooo

Not his £350 estimate I hope

Not his £350 estimate I hope

Well as a seller in this case I would have hoped so big time, but with an asking price some 150 GBP under I can promise you that didnt happen. Had alot of interest (both trade offers and several pure sale) and no problem selling it but I declined some offers and feel I let it go at a fair price to a buyer that was seeking it to go into a collection and that was what I was hoping for. Didnt want this to go to any U-graders

Cheeky bugger :evil:

Congrats on the sale mate 8)

So he paid you more than the asking price?? :? Ay? :?
Iain said it would exceed 200. I'm confused.
