Nice pick ups.

Was a rizzla's thickness from pulling the trigger on that trilogo Luke. Great pick ups, lots of bargains.

I didn't even realize Iain had a Luke Jedi Trilogo for sale and I'd actually won a Luke Trilogo on ebay earlier that day along with a really nice Gam Guard from a seller in the US. The seller then cancelled the sale - long story, but I was fuming

Once I calmed down I just casually browsed the for sale section here and bingo Iain had a Luke Jedi Trilogo - could hardly believe my change in fortune so went for it, so Maulster I nearly never bought it in the first place lol

I've learnt it's much better to deal with people on here if I can.

Some lovely looking Tri Logos Paul. Love the Luke Star Tot too.
Scored this a few weeks ago and sent it to UKG with a few others. It's the light blue ( is it Tri Logo? ) Fett with the painted knee/unpainted dart combo. I've been reading a few old threads and it seems to be easier to get than the other light blue Fett with the unpainted knee that I've got. It's taken me ages to find one. Robbie had an AFA one a while back but wanted silly money for it. As a bonus, it's got the twin stem bubble which I like at the moment. Plus, it cost a lot less than the other one that was for sale. Less than half in fact.
For anyone interested, it came back with subs of 90/95/85 overall 90. The paint apps on the belt let the mark down for the figure but I can live with that. The brown haired Luke that I bought also came back with subs of 85/95/90 overall 90, making them the best scoring mocs I have. Sorry for the long rambling post, I'm just made up to finally get this one. :D

Cheers Iain. I think grading is around £22 then the postage depends. 6 mocs cost around £20 each way.
I try to get a few mocs together to send at once to save postage. Are you tempted to get a few done?

Its never been my thing really but I was going through my ROTJ collection and I have some beautiful cards - not sure if it is worth it to be honest - will have to have a think :D

Gone a bit overboard (for me anyway). Thanks to Iain for the Imp Dignitary, AndrewMcgeogh (sp) for Weequay, the loose ones are from eBay - the stormies will go into the army and the rest will be flipped.

Hi Lee, yes some very minty figures :D thanks for the kind words :wink:
Congratulations with the 4 moc, they are so awesome, is the jawa cape smooth on that card

Thanks. I think it's a smooth cape. TBH, I didn't know that there were any differences apart from vinyl, LL and regular. You live and learn. :)
Thanks for the comments guys. Chris, I think the twin stem bubbles are awesome. Just managed to score a couple more with the same bubble, one if which is winging its way back to me from UKG. Hopefully get some pics up tomorrow. Steve reckons its an absolute minter!!!
Nice work Greg and Ponchobelt on the mocs. The Vader was a steal, and Greg, you need to show me the trick with the duct tape!!!

Hi Lee, thanks about the jawa info, that helped me a lot :D Congratulations with the MOC boba fett, it is so amazing and beautiful :shock:

Hi Jeff, Great to know I am not the only one on this thread that collect loose :lol: Cool AT-AT commanders, are they all variants ?

Hi Stormtrooper37, awesome moc. Tri-logo cards is so cool 8)

Hi theslider, great moc and also some cool loose, nice to see I am no the only one that collect loose on this thread :D

Cheers chaps. Sure is Chris. I asked him months ago for that specific paint combo and it's taken a while but he came through. It's not from the cases that he found a while ago though. Those are just standard and light blue/unpainted knee. God knows where he gets them from!!! Got him hunting for the painted dart ones now. See you Sunday mate. 8)

Yeap some of them are really nice, and they were a good price too from a good honest seller on evilBay.
