-what's a true holy grail...

[sith-smith]

As far as I'm concerned a true holy grail is whatever piece you want most, for whatever personal reasons you have for wanting it.


Like the other classic 'mega rare' grail gets thrown about a lot. This is or that is the holy grail of star wars collectors etc...

Bull!

who is anyone to tell me what the holy grail is for me a star wars collector!?

Anything piece can be a grail to anyone at any time. And good luck to them on their hunt for it!

Hope you don't mind me asking but what's your Grail?

My grail would be a recognisable screen used item from the original trilogy, something the average man in the street would recognise as being from Star Wars. Can't see myself ever affording to buy something like that, but I can dream!

An extension to get all his grails in!

I'll go with that - a screen used at-at or star destroyer model would probably be my grail, or perhaps the probot.

In terms of toys... A full run from clay to production for one of the vintage figures.

Around 15-16 years ago I remember seeing a screen used lightsaber (I think it was Luke's) for sale on Ebay being sold by Lucas Films or one of the Lucas Companies together with COA and I think it went for $25,000. I wouldn't like to think what it would go for now! I guess items like that really are grail items as I have never seen one for sale since.

This has got to be up there and today's the day!!!

[Pomse2001]

Awesome item and I think a Holy Grail for many collectors if they could be lucky to get one

Did it do as well as you thought it would?

[Hothrebel]

With it being an open auction,it found its value on the day.It was bought by a very respected collector and as far as I'm aware he is very happy with his purchase.There are quite a few differing views on this item especially around its value.Did it achieve what I expected? To be honest due to the rarity I had no real idea what the final price was going to be .At the end of the day Vectis don't set the prices ,its down to the collectors (that bid) who set the price.

[coomber75]

I get its rarity but isnt a grail piece for me... although I do have a loose but more luck than judgment as I had him as a kid. I have a few that I ultimately want... the first 12 moc ideally whikst not a crazy grail would make me feel happy owning them

[Gaz46&2]

A time machine so I could go back to 1977.

[theforceuk]

That Jawa is certainly a grail in my book.

Very nice.

Are you saying this piece has remained in the UK? That's great if so!!
