@Rob71: awesome R2 :D how much did you win it for?

Around the $450 mark... I'm already a wee bit concerned about spending that much on a figure in case the bubble peels off once I've had it a while, but I've always loved R2 and especially that cardback picture - I'm not sure why they had to "improve" him with a sensorscope either

A galaxy far, far away...
Finally picked up one of these flyers!!

These small flyers were packaged with some late-issue Empire Strikes Back toys during 1982 to help drum up interest in Kenner's planned line for the third installment of the Trilogy, which at that point had Revenge of the Jedi as a working title. It is double-sided, with the front displaying the new film's logo and announcing its release date of May 25, 1983; and the back giving a quick rundown of what to expect from Kenner in the near future. Most interesting is the blurb regarding the "new toys from the Star Wars Micro Collection." The various playsets that were at that time being developed to expand upon the Micro Collection concept were eventually dropped and no ROTJ Micro sets were actually produced. This is yet another testament to just how close these items came to store shelves. (Info taken from swca).



Enjoy!!
:D

Just won this one on ebay (seller's photo) Pretty pleased as I missed out by $5 on a 12-back Leia a few minutes earlier.

R2 is such a cool card!

Nice cards Bram - so that's what you spend all our wonga on? :)

Have had a busy day today, so not been able to get this weeks gains up - will get them photo'd and uploaded tomorrow. I'll use a camera or something this time. It will not be as much as usual - as things are getting harder to come by in week 3!
