[QUOTE="TheJabbaWookie, post: 502383, member: 9217"] This was my one. I bought if with the intention of originally breaking him free of his case. I was a bit too quick on the draw when I purchased him and didn’t notice the slight chip in the dome. I was interested to know if AFA had graded him 75 with the chip or whether he had sustained it afterwards. He doesn’t move around in the case and when I contacted AFA they said that, while they couldn’t disclose information of that nature to me even though he was now in my possession (note UKG will disclose), they did say that a chip of this nature could be a possible reason for scoring a 75 and it could theoretically have scored higher without. Well to cut a long story short I decided he didn’t really fit in my collection even though I do like both the Droids R2 and C3PO, so I decided to sell him to fund my failed DSD 20 Back MOC purchase. The money was finally put to good use in the recent purchase of my 12 Back DSC. :D [/QUOTE]
