Only the first 2. The white one was my loose Hungarian. The carded Hungarian was on a different shelf with my Hungarian carded set. The carded Hungarian is all I have left of my old bootleg run. The rest was sold to fund a large deal. I needed to raise almost $7,000 fast. The shelf was split over 2 collectors.

And if you're ever fortunate enough to get one of these calls from John when he does need to quickly raise $$ you'll know immediately by the "used car salesman" tone in his voice.......lol. Before he was done saying Hi to me and asking me how I was I knew he wanted something...lol Not complaining mind you. And not meaning to sound greedy,because the other half went to a deserving collection, but I wish I'd been flush enough to have bought everything that day....lol

Cheers

Heeeyyyy Jooooeee, How ya doin'?? How's business? LOL

Anybody who sees me in person at C5 as me to tell the story. I totally hammed it up and he knew right off the bat I was fishing for cash and made no bones about it. LOL

Me: Joe, you wanna buy X, Y and Z?
Joe: How much?
Me: $4,000
Joe: Hmmm, how about just X and Y.
Me: Ok, how about if I threw A and B in?
Joe: How much?
Me: $4,000
Joe: LOL So, what you're saying is I'm not getting off the phone unless I spend $4,000
Me: Yep

10 minutes later, I had my agreement to $4,000 and sold the rest for $2,500 to another friend the next day. And I went happily on my way to spending far too much money on toys.

Since I see folks posting pics in the thread.... Here's one that I took a while ago and limelighted on RS. It's a pic that could pretty much only happen in my collection..... :mrgreen:

Enjoy

[aussiejames]

That's the "don't post live auctions" stormtrooper & the 10 MOCs are the store display? the Headman speaks for itself but what's the Yoda & the Playmobil looking space man? Now you just need to get them graded :lol: :lol:

 

[Joseph_Y]

Correct that's the infamous Black Polish Hoth Trooper.... only known carded example, with the also only confirmed carded Headman, a Hungarian Store display set (3 or 4 known) , the Yoda is a carded Hungarian "Pig Nose" Yoda (one of 2 known carded examples) and the Arco SpaceWar figure is that lines equivilant of Luke, once again one of 2 known carded examples.
