Ye I've seen a few stripped 3po's. I guess as you say its always going to be evident on the plastic under a microscope if stripper has been used. When I was younger I did quality control at Coca Cola and once messed up some carbonation readings when tired and not feeling well resulting in...

Mine has no coo - same markings as the above. I want a beater now so I can see if I can strip the paint off a leg. :lol:

Ah ok - it's not something I've tried. Guess I mentioned it as I used a decorators wipe to clean an LFB the other day and ended up smudging the belt paint - rest of it unaffected. I'll take your word for it m8 :)

Forgive my ignorance on factory error figures but would it not be possible to simply chemically strip the paint off a section of a figure and pass it as an error? It would be a fiddly job but possible. I'm sure the above figure is a genuine factory error but I can't really see how that could...

Hi, Thanks for taking the time to reply. Yeah 50 is a lot for grading. I'd anticipate a 75 but if you reckon that grade would not make it worth it I will take your advice. I'd like 200 ideally - may put on here or elsewhere at that - if it doesn't sell fair enough - may be worth a bit more...

Hi, I've got an misb Jabba playset. Box is fairly mint with a bit of water damage at one end. Unsure of value. Its on eBay at 250 - a little high maybe but an opened one went for 200 at auction recently so thought I'd put it up at that till I was a bit more certain. Anyone think its worth...

that is v nice - good luck with it :)

Hi folks. Not so much of a valuation request really as I have an idea of the value. I have a palitoy Millenium Falcon unused - stickers all on sheet jedi ball sealed. The parts bag is open - Its not all been put together as you can still see those thin mould line things round the edge of the...

Hi I bought a lot of figures off ebay a couple of years ago and amongst the other stuff out popped this. She's a little shorter than the kenner figure and the plastic is softer so a few months later I sent it with a couple of figures for grading at UKG. Steve there very kindly looked at it for...

Good point should have thought of that- not a great afa fan anyway other than for a certain guarantee of condition and genuinity when buying. I freed my Greedo from his UKG case the other day and he looks better and tells me he is much happier now :lol: Ye was looking on that 12/20/21 back...

Right. Would you say damage in afa cases is a common issue when long distance mail is involved? edit - obviously i understand it will be worse if already damaged -edit

Ye would look nice in a case thinking about it - maybe a bit of foam to pack it at the bottom to prevent it cracking further.... I've never really displayed it properly as didn't want to take it out of the plastic case thingy I have for fear of damaging it. Cheers!

:) Yes they are attractive - must try not to remortgage lol - would love to own some of them at least 12/20/21 for me especially n esb hoth Perhaps a couple of nm SW vehicles aswel and one of those early display stands - some decent examples on ebay last week. I'll think what I want to do...

Thanks for the positive comment - never really owned many mocs but the condition of the card attracted me to it when I bought it. It must be nice to have an moc collection - my interest would be in SW and a few ESB cards as they're the ones I remember best but it would be an expensive place to...

Thanks for your comments guys much appreciated :) Instructions not to tamper with it duly noted lol forgive my inexperience. Only been collecting a few years - toys as a kid. I've built up an almost complete loose collection nearly all c85 or better (plus a few other bits) and need a gunner...

Cheers lol Didn't want to leave anything controversial up till I had chance to reply to be fair weasel. I have dug the card out and its not as bad as I remember to be honest. I've it a fair while it was a postage casualty originally so I got it fairly cheap -shame as it is pretty decent apart...

Hi I have an imperial gunner POTF Imp gunner plus coin. The card is in v good condition but the bubble is yellowed with a nasty crack. Just wondering what it is worth as it is? cheers :D figure probably removable - have been tempted for display with rest of my last 17 loose there's of risk...

Cheers for that. The gold one I have is a definite gold color almost like a C3PO when compared to others. The blue paneled is definitely a variant - I saw it on a 12 bk SKU on facebook but I'm not sure what cards it may have been unique to. Ye he was asking a little more glad I thought better...

Hi, I recently nearly entered negotiations to buy an R5 D4 20 back with the Boba Fett advert from the states. It had a damaged bubble and was graded afa 60 with 80 each for the figure and card and looked really good apart from the bubble damage. Staple hole and sticker residue otherwise v nice...
