[QUOTE="stratpack, post: 417599, member: 5386"] Inspired by Russ J's photos of his modern collection I thought I'd take some pics of my few POTF2 figs. :D I had the complete run of modern figs from 95 up 04 but I got sick of the whole Hasbro thing and I couldn't keep up. I sold it all off including the elusive final European wave of POTF2 figs. These cards were also called Long Picture/Photo Cards and sported a Monologo rather than a Trilogo symbol. There was 9 altogether but in the UK they had a limited release, more available in France, Germany etc. It was easier to import cases of US/Canadian POTF2 by this time so the distribution was pretty poor over here. In fact I only ever saw Ackbar and Luke Bespin at retail here. It took me years to get them all including picking Weequay up in Australia when I was travelling! In recent years after getting back in to collecting I took up the challenge and hunted the same wave down. Again, its taken me years! The cards have different photos from their US counterparts and are quite attractive as a variation. Anyway, here they are for you modern collectors PS The only one missing is Luke Bespin which is ironically the easiest figure to find but I just haven't found a good enough mint example for grading yet.
