[QUOTE="bosk70, post: 444568, member: 5890"] I remember our local market shop always had two or three shipping boxes of Jedi figs open down the far end of the shop on the floor around 83-85, I remember going there about once a month to flick through them like you used to with records and occasionally finding something I wanted , But they were nearly always jabba specials klaatu nikto ree yees think they were only 40 or 50 p at the time and remember thinking there must be some good one's soon but they were always 2 thirds full of all the usual above mentioned cards and always jedi never any others and the boxes were always full, shipping boxes cannot remember if they were Palitoy boxes or not but all the ships there that were for sale were always Kenner and sure all the cards were too never any Palitoy. Years later about 92-93 I popped in there one day on the off chance and could not believe that there were 3 at-as's( 2 jedi forest and one empire snow,} and a slave one all fiver each I snapped them up as I was getting back into star wars at the time and said the usual " my son loves star wars do you have anymore about ????" but was told that was the last of it found in the stock room buried but was happy with the find. happy days!! Found some klaatu nikto ree yees in bad shape in 1994 on a market stall for 50p each bought the last six they had, one was literally hanging off the card that was the last time I saw them in the cheap original wild :D [/QUOTE]
