Vader Palitoy Run

[darth_daddius]

Since I've joined SWFUK, I thought I'd focus on my Palitoy figures. This has actually been a tough run and I'm still after better examples of the three ESB cards and there are still some variants that I'm after. Anyway, for now I hope you enjoy them

SW-b 12 back:

ESB 41 Back (reseal):

ESB 45 Back (twin stem bubble reseal):

ESB 45 Back Bounty Hunter offer:

ESB Kenner 48 Back with Palitoy sticker:

ROTJ 45 Back:

ROTJ 45 Back with 'Black' Clipper Sticker and twin stem bubble:

ROTJ Kenner 48 Back with Palitoy Sticker:

ROTJ 65 Back (long bubble):

ROTJ 65 Back (Fat bubble with rounded corners):

The saddest part is that after ALL of the above there are still variations for me to find! Palitoy is a LOT of fun.

For more Vader fun, check out the links below in my signature.

Cheers,

Awesome run Pat.
Upside down Vader looks really cool.
Good luck with the upgrades and missing ones.

 

[Carl Waterworth]

Wow! What an awesome run! What is the difference between phase 1 and phase 2 of tri logo?

 

[darth_daddius]

Joe is the guy to ask about the exact differences, but I believe it is mostly in the bubble shape.

The punches are different on the tris as well. Great Palitoy run Pat. Your full Vader run is probably due a group picture update :wink:

 

[x-wingMark]

Great collection of Palitoy Vaders. :shock:

Thanks for sharing

Wonderful run - congrats on pulling that lot together. Can you give me some info on Tri-Logo phase 1 and phase 2, curious if this is something I can look out for on my Han focus; thanks

 

[jedisearcher]

Very nice run. Love the upside down one, it's great

 

[sith-smith]

Awesome vader run 8)

 

[theforceuk]

Joe's tri-logo site the the 'place' to be for ANY info on Tri-Logos. Tri-logos were made in a few countries across Europe and everything from the bubble shape, size, cardback and, as Aussie highlighted, even the punch can make a variation from a specific country.

Check it out at: http://trilogo.info/carded-figure-guide/beginners-guide/

I very much think you'll be able to use it in your Han focus - I actually have eight different versions of Vader on a Tri-Logo card and trying to get hold of a 9th.

Cheers,
Pat

PS - James, once I get the collection room all set up again, I'll be able to do some group shots. Right now they are all in storage.......

 

[spoons]

impressive run Pat - some very difficult cards to track down in that set

 

[indianawars]

Bravo Pat. Some fantastic pieces in your Vader collection.

 

[TwistedMetal]

Vader on the chewie card is great

 

[Joe]

Pat, that's a stunning collection! Really awesome stuff, hope we get to see your Vader museum again in full soon!

Stephen, Palitoy phase 1 on my website = Palitoy Type 3 and Palitoy phase 2 = Palitoy Type 1.

I can see why that confuses people but the system I used doesn't actually run in chronological order. The Type 3 variant was actually the first "phase" of production (so the earliest Palitoy Trilogo) but it wasn't ever referenced on any other gudie before so I had to introduce it and slot it in behind the more well known variations (Type 1 and Type 2 - previously known as 70b+ 70c).

Sorry to derail this amazing limelight and thanks for linking to the site Pat!

Thanks for the info guys and once again - STUNNING Vader run!

You have some interesting cards there mate, very nice. I think when you see them in the context of a run of Palitoys like that the battered ones/condition doesn't really matter. As you say you can look out for better examples. Good work, good luck finding more!

 

[Grant]

Great run Pat. That's a heck of a lot of Vaders. 8)

 

[theguiltyone]

That's a fantastic run, seriously. What with the miscard and upside down examples, they really set it apart.

Well done hombre.
