well like anything, over time you learn about things (mostly by making mistakes) and iam nearly finished my carded collection (and sods law , i think ive perfected it ) ........

wait until cardbacks with original bubbles come up for auction on ebay ( and win) , oviously get the more common ones as they are as cheap as chips (i know this is ovious but..) so for instance i just repaired a luke rotj card (using good photo ink and sticky label paper) i took a imperial commander cardback which still ahd original bubble attached , i removed the bubble and took a sponge scouring pad with water soacked the bubble over night then scrubbed the excess paper from the edges........

get either double sided sticky tape or the new super glue which comes in a small pot with a brush attached to the lid... now the super glue you need to be quick and dont touch the inside of the bubble with it as the bubble reacts and turns white !! :x so be carefull , i went to a hardware shop and got this tape which is exellent , its about a inch and a half wide and its like a extreamly thin rubber which sits really well between card and bubble ...........i prefer the tape to be honest....


top tip !!
and for a authentic look use slightly yellowed bubbles :roll: :wink: then they look real !!! hope this helps :D

i think this bubble was a imp commmander or klatuu i cant remember ?sorry about the blurry photo, i was out last night and ive got the shakes !!

That looks pretty good Han. You just re-attach the bubble, or did you fix up the card as well?
