TBF there is no picture of the rest of the Lando card only that small fraction of it. It COULD have been utterly trashed/ripped to ****/eaten by a dog.
Yes, it may well have been perfectly fine and be another in the growing line of MOC's ruined for a "U" grade, all I'm saying is we need to see what the rest of the card was like before we jump to conclusions on that one.

Damn shame on the Leia though!

A tad optimistic:

This just doesnt make any sense whatsoever:

I suppose a $2 premium is steep for a MOC :|

Do you not think the piece of string makes it worth the money? :lol:

It's all about the string....but I think the string may be repro. :D

How do you tell if the string is fake o not? Do they have a string specialist?

Sticker says loose vehicle, I imagine the die cast would have the text "die cast" on the sticker?

Oh, and look at the armrest on the couch the TIE is resting on.... :p

Aaand, seller says he has the box... :p

How does that TIE get a U-grade??
Did AFA apply the stickers themselves? Wouldn't that cancel out the U-grade?

That's a pisser, the whole untouched by human hands is a joke as it is but to give this piece a U with applied stickers is a farce.

No doubt someone will buy it and part with stupid money for the pleasure.

Good points well made Jorn :D

So it looks like you are right and that the grader applied the stickers
