The VCJ looks good although you'll have to check around the arms to make sure the cape has no tears in it ( it doesn't look like it though). Be really careful doing this though so that you don't damage it . There looks to be a small dent in the back of the collar which wouldn't be much of a problem as long as it's not a hole. If all of that checks out ok then 250-300 GBP seems to be the going rate at the moment although on ebay it would probably go higher but remember the fees would be a lot.

The palitoy MOC looks in ok condition although I can see the bubble has started to yellow. Also it looks like there's some tape on the outside edge of the bubble. Is this on the top of the bubble or underneath it? It could be from where the blaster has been stuck inside the bubble and the tape has been trapped but make sure that the bubble is fully sealed all the way around. I know some people don't like yellow bubbles so it will probably affect the price but I'm thinking around 225-300 GBP.

Hope that helps and you never know with these things, it'll probably depend on the day.

Seriously that much Ian? (and I'm not just saying that cos I'm after it!) Some fading and staining to card (nothing major though) and it looks like tape on the outside of the bubble too.

It's difficult to know for sure as these things seem to go for different amounts daily. I think the Palitoy R5 that sold at Vectis this week went for just over 200 and the sand people went for just under 200 so it's hard to say. Maybe my valuation would be realised on ebay but then you always give a fair chunk of that away with the fees.

Wasn't there a palitoy snaggletooth listed on eBay a few weeks back which didn't sell, starting price £85?

what can i say the prices seem to vary so much.... re the bubble just checked it and its tape that runs underneath bubble to hold blaster in... i know its not been opened as i had it from a kid and didnt open it. this may actually be the only piece i sell as am now hooked on buying and completing the collection... damn it !! was hoping to make some money... now just spending it!

Yes that the same one, a bit beat-up, I remember it was relisted and didn't sell the 2nd time round.
