Hi,

I think I have one of these.

Here's some pictures:

I'm not a collector and only found out it is rare through a nostalgic Google search.

I'd appreciate your thoughts on it.

Sincerely,

Martin.

Are both pictures of the same figure ?

Are the holes for the arms nice and tight.

If you could take some more pictures around the figure, front and back then we should be able to help.

 

[wizardpugh]

Yes - both pictures are of the same figure. Using iphone camera so not the best shots.

Arm holes are tight.

More photos now up.

Cheers,

Martin.

My gut feeling is that it looks OK

 

[wizardpugh]

Great!

If that's the case, how much might it be worth?

 

[Dark Sith Lord]

Thats mine too Everything looks ok to me mate

But I will let the more knowledgeable VCJ guys advise you further?

Whereabouts are you?

Worth i would say £250-300 or so

Thanks for help so far - very friendly forum.

I'm in South London.

What other verification is needed?

Can't get a close enough in-focus photo of cape.

Run your finger nail down the inside of the cape and it should make a zip like sound. Outside should be smooth.

 

[wizardpugh]

Yep - I think it does that "zip" sound on the inside, and the ouside is smooth.

How do you go about selling on this forum?

 

[Richard_H]

Put a pic in the for sale thread. Would also help by putting a little about the history of the figure - where did you get it from, and when etc.
Also state how much you're wanting for him. (or her are Jawas male :lol: )

However please note that there are far greater experts on here than me who will be able to tell if this is genuine or not so don't build your hopes up yet.

 

[wizardpugh]

Thanks again for help.

I'll put something up on for sale later.

Cheers,

Martin.

Hi Martin . Have you got a pic of the other figures you found and perhaps todays newspaper so we know you are who you say you are

if you have a macro shot of the pattern on cape should b tight crisscross, failing that look thru a mag glass in bright light and you should see it. length looks correct and colour is spot on. photo of stamp on back of leg would help to authenticate correct coo. ( apologies for txt speak on my mobile)
