Hi guys I have been offered these -
A French Meccano Han Solo with Luke Skywalker.
This is the same as the one in the Recent auction in the States that Shawn_K. won. I have spoke to him via PM and he believes that it is legit and it is not the same as the one he brought. :? :? I am looking for the views of all you guys too!
Second up is this Trilogo Snowtrooper on a ATST Driver card -
This is what the person said to me in his original email-
"I've decided to sell a couple of my favourite Star Wars vintage carded figures. I've been selling off my carded collection, but wanted to keep hold of these last two as they're miscarded and rare. But at pains I've decided to sell them off too. Details are below, and I'll attach their digital photos to one of the later e mails Im sending shortly.
MISCARDED rare 1983 French 'Yan' Solo' Return of the Jedi card with Luke Skywalker Jedi figure. I bought this from Brianstoys (world's largest Star Wars retailer) about 10 years ago now from their 'rare' vintage section. The card is in good condition, with only minor edgewear. The bubble is crushed though, and there are cracks in 2 corners (not much more than 1 centimetre), and the bubble is consequently yellowing. Nevertheless I love this piece for being miscarded and foreign. Please see pic!
MISCARDED rare 1983 Tri-Logo ATST Driver card with Stormtrooper Hoth figure. Again I bought this from Brianstoys around the same time. Card is in nice condition, glossy colours. Bubble is fine apart from 2 cracks, no more than 1 inch.
As you can he seems to know his stuff. I have asked for the pictures of the back and I am waiting to hear a response.
I would love to hear you guys responses Liam
