Feel like I keep saying this, but WOW!! Some amazing items. Quality just keeps getting better and better!!

My latest MOCS, all under the self imposed £100 price point!

Threepio is a Kenner card but with a Tesco price sticker on the back, liked this as got a Palitoy gammy guard with a kb price ticket on last week.

Some amazing pick ups recently. I got these 2 items in Japan recently. Luke is opened 12bk Takara. Bubble is still partially attached, has the footer. The other is a vintage tsukuda metal model kit, still sealed inside. Couldn't not get the Luke! Cheers

Great stuff mate.
Where did you score the Takara from?
Was it Star Case or Nakano Broadway by any chance?

Cheers tobedesu. Not a bad guess! It was the Mandarake section in Nakano Broadway, there were a few bits there, some ok stuff. Ive picked up some good vintage items over the years going to Japan, cheers.

Here's my first contribution here in a while. I just got these Pirelli child's slippers today, but not for the first time. I had a pair circa 1980 that I remember wearing until my feet were literally bursting out of them.

some real peaches of purchases last month - I'd not looked in for a while :shock:

Harbert diorama, Pal Luke Bespin and the three pack are very special and I love the way the loose ships look on Iain's stands 8)

Here's my LA - been after this for a long time. Small wing DV TIE on TIE card. The SW TIE card used to to test the packaging before the toy was then tested on a DV TIE card before ultimately being redesigned.

Stunning diecast VTF ! Was that available in stores or redesigned before they hit the shelfs?

Thanks cardbackkid - the small wings never made it to stores but they came very close so around 50 plus of them out there as samples/tests

Cazza - Jeez, thats a beaut. A Palitoy 30bk or a Kenner 41? No brainer mate. Keep the 41 and give me the 30 :wink: Awesome pick up dude.
Lindo - Stunning 12 Back Stormie. No idea why your photos are 'pushed' either.
Page 2076
Mike Strange - Wow, an unpainted Yak. Congrats mate, he'll go great in your focus. That's quality.
Palitoy Junky - Holy crap mate, massive congrats for the Palitoy 3PO. One of only two known 8) Nice
Chris FNX - Love the AT AT Snow Walker! Sweet Takara 12 Bk, very nice.
Page 2077
Roundster - Lovely mini haul. I've always preferred that Ben image. The R5 is a gem as is the 3PO, great work.
Poncho - Great work with the damaged Fett. I love that you have Fett 'hand friends'.
Chipsteak - Wow, there's a trip down memory lane; pirelli slippers, nice.
Spoons - Totally sweet Die Cast DV Tie on a Tie card. PM sent :D
Shaky - Mint looking Luke and R2 mate, classic

Mate that is a stunning die-cast piece :eek: it looks so much purer than the standard white Tie on that card what with the smaller bubble etc.
Nice pick up 8)

This is an unverified 70C Leia on the Palitoy Matrix. Edd spotted it. Have added to my matrix now.

:)

Jason

I'm not entirely sure you can add an undocumented variation to your matrix without a better picture. That does indeed look like a 70C but the punch is telling me it's a 70B with a repaired/resealed bubble area.

Scarefaceone, is the figure factory sealed? Need more pictures if so.

Good spot. The whole bubble area is transplanted. You can see the join at the top of the bubble. Am going to remove this entry from the matrix.

Cheers Jason
