One thing that has caught my eye is Lot 5425, which they are presenting as an original poster used in the West End. There was a very rare mini poster of the Hildebrandt that looks similar to this, but this isn't it. This is the centre page of Time Out magazine, you can see the fold line down the centre and staple holes, plus the page stock is too thin. Still a cool thing, but if you took it out the frame and flipped it over you'd see it was just a magazine page.

Good spot, best let them know Matt... the catalogue only went online today, I'm sure they would amend it as the description and therefore value is significantly different. Last thing they'll want is a return, even if they do (in my experience) manage that process exceptionally well.

Good call Steve, I've just sent Kathy a message and she came back right away and said she'd investigate that Lot closer. Good positive response from her.

Will be fun to follow, but personally, nothing for me this time around. Not many exiting trilogos, and little foreign stuff.

What about those photography for 3-4k a piece? I find that a bit too much for some unused stuff, from an unknown photographer? What are you guys impression?

Nothing particularly great about what's up for grabs.

Palitoy Vinyl Caped Jawa? ;)

Or the considerably large volume of preproduction and unproduced items :?

Sorry, meant that I, or most people could afford haha. All very well that there is something interesting, but when it's going to be £10,000+, I kind of have to just pretend I didn't see it. :D

On the other stuff, yeah I kinda forget I have a one track mind and am only looking for MOCs.

One of the best I've ever seen hit the market too :D

Seems it has a spot of discolouration on the cape from the description, but the bubble looks great and the card only has a couple of small creases.

Also had a look at that Kenner 85 VCJ. Must be an old grade when they were more lenient, because the card has some obvious wear on the bottom left side by the bubble. That wouldn't get overall 85 today?

I hear you.. I just really like and enjoy looking at the super specialist stuff. I know I'll never afford it and if I could, probably couldn't justify it, but seeing it (even in photos) is a real win for me.
