Pomse2001 said:Wow what a beauty that Y-Wing is 8) is it the bilogo or the tri-logo ? any pictures of the other side of the box ? :wink:
Cool that the stickers is not used, it looks really mint. Have it ever been used ? is the bag factory sealed ?
Thanks mate for sharing the pictures

Thanks guys
The other side of the box is bi-logo (French and Spanish). I believe the true 'Tri-logo' version has all three languages and Jedi logos on the same side of the box like you find on the Tri-logo figure cards, for example, rather than splitting them into English on one side and French and Spanish on the other.
Sorry Lars, I don't have a similar photo of the other side of the box, but the next time I take it out of my cabinet, I'll try to remember to take one and post it for you. However, as stated in my post above, the toy is unused, with stickers unapplied and the baggie still sealed.

Thanks . In terms of box condition, it's probably the nicest piece I own, so I was pleased when Lars chose the Y-Wing for TOTW, as it gave me the perfect excuse to share some pictures of it.Ruby2511 said:Snaketibe said:The Y-Wing this week, eh Lars?

Well done on fixing it. Did you need to replace or repair any parts to get the landing gear working, or was it something you could fix without that? Either way, it looks pretty good nowapack7229 said:Here's mine. When I got it the battery compartment was very corroded and the rear leg was messed up. Got it fixed and works fine now. Also came with an r2.

I was in the Olympic park in Seoul a few years ago which is full of sculptures from various artists and found this, take a close look at his head and legs!

Its bronze so I assume the artist used a shell to create the cast and since the Olympics there was in 1988 and the sculptures would have been commissioned a year or two before, its probably safe to say this Y-Wing was taken from a clearance bin to make the sculpture - can you spot the Kay Bee sticker Carl!
It was great seeing vintage in such a prominent place but no one there had a clue why I was so excited.
