Trip to local Flea market this morning.....nothing really there but was happy to pick this up after flicking through about 10 comics, they were the only thing on one of the stalls....Fully attached in a Sept 1979 issue of the 'Whoopee' comic.....Cost only €1... :D

I'm really excited to have received this in the post today. I never knew this particular item existed until a few days ago, it's not in the Tomarts guide or in Gus and Duncan's guide. I remember having the Deeko plates when I was probably 8 or 9, and I've managed over the years to pick up sealed packs of cups, plates, tablecloths and napkins, what I thought was the whole range. This is new to me, it's a Party Table Pack containing 8 each of the small plates, cups and napkins, and a tablecloth, as well as two larger plates that I'd never seen before. Interestingly, the packaging doesn't mention Deeko at all, which makes me wonder if this was a way of packaging up overstock, perhaps for secondary sale by a different company? The graphics on the header card are great, very 70s, and I love the big bold use of the Star Wars logo. All in all a fantastic rare piece and one I'm extremely pleased to have found.

That is amazing Andy.
I too have never seen that and I have owned the cups and plate since buying from a local market in the late 70s.
I vaguely remember having some napkins too but cannot be 100% of this but if I did then it's possible I, or at least my Mum purchased the set in this kind of package but again, I have no recollection of this.
This is the only example I have seen or remember seeing.
If you ever part with it in future Andy would you look me up please? :wink:

Great pick ups on here as usual! Love the table set. Remember having these at a Birthday party as a kid :D

Two small additions to the collection.
AST5 and an upgrade on my MLC3

Lovley MOC's Roundster, wish I was as good as you in picking pieces up at less than £100. :roll:

Spoons absolutely love the tie figher, and TrisCompany those fetts and farm boys are really nice. :eek:

Time to share again, a couple of nice MOC's that I am really happy with.

Loving those fetts, painted helmet is a variant that I'm after....and you have two you greedy so and so! :lol:

A bit of a departure for me as I had previously only collected loose figures, but I couldn't stomach the cost of the r2 pop up, yak and blue snag that I need to complete my run! :twisted:

So I got these instead, opened bubbles but now they're in some acrylic you'd hardly notice! My first (not quite) MOC's 8)

Droopy, sweet Palitoys, you wouldn't know that they weren't sealed, look great in the acrylic cases.

Thanks man! Vader has had the bubble sliced down one side, but the other two look like they were opened with a Stanley knife from the back so the bubbles are still firmly attached to the card.
