Toltoys VC Jawa AFA graded.

Not sure what to make of this, I mean surely the bubble could have been saved and protected some how. Doesn't seem right to me. What do you think?

IMO it's a loose AFA graded Toltoys VCJ that's been paired on a separate occasion to an ESB card back in a custom case.
Cleverly written as he acually never states that the AFA removed the figure from the bubble.
He has a rare piece and it's a shame he has muddied the waters by trying to 'Squeeze out' more rarity. :|

Like I said nice piece though.

The previous owner (David B) sent it in for grading & the bubble was too damaged according to AFA. It is a very specific cardback- factory code & position of factory code....

i would of cut up a top loader to support the bubble but i suppose afa wouldnt of graded it then..tricky.

i wouldnt of graded it my self. support the bubble and shove it gw case

It sold for about $4K after grading- current 'owner' is dreaming.....

Still searching for a loose Toltoys Jawa, he's currently in my Top 5 most wanted.

My entire collection isn't worth anywhere near the value of this single item - It's crazy how one small figure is worth more than some new cars!

I agree the seller is dreaming, I wouldn't have graded it either.

I stand corrected.
Nice piece.
