What's the rarest ESB cardbacks?

[burnsy]

Just been going through my ESB carded figures.

Got quite a variation and wondered what were the rarer cardbacks?

I believe the 21 backs are the rarest, however I am not sure out of those what figure with a 21 back is the hardest.

To start very generally, the 21 backs are pretty "rare" I have ony ever seen one 21 back jawa, and of course a stormtrooper is next to impossible to find on a 21 back.
I think there are some that haven't been confirmed- like removable limbs c3po on a 45 back is rummoured. Offerless 4 Lom esb is like rocking horse pooh too.
I am sure some more seasoned collectors will chime in!

 

[burnsy]

Yeah, unfortunately I don't have any 21 backs.

 

[e30318is]

Any more jawas stu?!

 

[burnsy]

Got a resealed Palitoy, and a very good one mate.
It sat in Gary's collection for a long time as the re-seal is brilliant.

 

[e30318is]

Wow, which one stu, 30 back? Are you looking to sell stu or just gauging rarity?
Send me a pm if you like mate, I am interested

Hey Stu, Im sure you knew this anyway but the following ESB Offerless Kenners seem to be pretty difficult to track down:

Han Bespin
Cloud Car Pilot
Luke Bespin

The following are proving to be extremely difficult to find:

Black Bespin Guard
R2 D2 Sensor Scope
C3PO Removable limbs
Tie Fighter Pilot
4 Lom

I still need all of these and unfortunately have seen only a very small handful of examples from the second list in recent years. Examples like the Black Bespin Guard and C-3PO were only available on 48 back A cards as far as Im aware. The same with 4 Lom, I have not seen a Black Bespin Guard or 4 Lom come up for sale at all in recent years unfortunately. I know that Kevin has one offerless 4-Lom in his focus but Ive not seen another recently at all.

I also need the following on Offerless ESB Kenner Cards although these do come up every now and then.

FX-7
Leia Bespin
Ugnaught

Hope this of some help. If indeed you do have any of these and you are thinking of letting them go please do bear me in mind mate. :wink:
I remeber seeing your ESB MOC's in your limelight and youve got some nice stuff dude.

All the best, Chris.

So good in fact I sold on two sealed ones as they weren't as good as the reseal. 8)
