Hi

I just wanted to know if Celebration in Orlando is a good place to source Palitoy 12, 20 or 30 back figures based on collectors past experiences of the show?

Thanks for your help

Hi Richard

I think I might have seen that one on ebay but I was put off by the tear on the back of the card.

Thanks for your help

You may find a good selection, but in my experience almost without exception you will pay a massive premium buying at events over eBay or forums/Facebook. Sellers at events like Celebration have to pay a huge amount of money for their stand (thousands of pounds) and this cost is obviously added on to their stock. Expect to see common ROTJ carded figures for three figures. I saw lots of cool stuff at CE last year, but very little was at reasonable prices.
 
In Anaheim you mean. Last years show was in London.

I don't recall seeing any. There were certainly none at the room sales.

Don't expect much European fare. There were a few bits, but not a lot.
 
You'll be lucky to find any Palitoy in the US at a good price.

I was at NYCC a couple of years ago and there was nothing on the stalls... however a certain Toy Hunter bloke there did tell me he had a full set of graded 12bks..... but at $30k+ i think he was being very hopeful.
 
There was at least one of each 12 back on the Saturday and Sunday on stalls being ran by Nick, Darren and Mark Woolard /Jason Joiner as I recall. Can't remember if there was a power droid but recall seeing all the other 20 backs.
 
Is the general consensus that it is not worth going to Celebration Orlando if your sole purpose is to buy Palitoy 12,20 and 30 back figures?

I don't think anyone goes to Celebration to buy specific items. You go to enjoy the atmosphere, meet your friends and have fun!! :lol:
