What a lovely, clean example!Dr_Ball_MD said:
Thanks for sharing
Time for Paploo, is it? Another figure Kenner couldn't find the right picture for on the cardbacks, and decided Romba was close enough :roll:
Here's mine, a POTF MOC and three loose variants with different shades of belt / knife paint, and nose and eye paint. At least some of the belt colour on the lightest variant is (I think) due to sunlight fading, as the back of the figure has a darker belt than the front, but even if that's the case, I quite like the 3 different shades it's produced!
Weirdly, there are no COOs that I can find on these figures, either on the legs or under the hoods... unless I'm being very dense, of course, which is always a possibility!

Yes kenner did a lot of errors, but we still love the toy :lol:
There is no coo on that figure, not even a year, why I do not know :?
I love the variants, thanks for sharing your fantastic huge collection as always 8)
Yet another great collection, Lars. I like all the cardbacks, even if none of them actually show Paploo :lol:Pomse2001 said:Here is my paploo collection

What a great load of paploo... :lol:
Thanks to everyone for showing off their Paploo's.
I'm afraid that I sold my POTF MOC last week to a forum member , so don't feel that it's right for me to post it now, so this is one that I can't contribute to.

I had a long had look at my collection and saw a few MOCs that were parts of runs that I had no real love for anymore.Pomse2001 said:Mini99 said:What a great load of paploo... :lol:

So I decided to stop collecting items because they were parts of runs etc. and only collect what I like no matter what these may be.
Hence the sales post for most of my POTF MOCs in the "for sale thread" (cheap plug) :roll: and then there will be a few RoTJ ones in the new year that will then also moved on.
All collections should go through change in my opinion, it's good to keep it fresh and intresting and also frees up items for other collectors!

Sounds like a good idea only to keep what you like and not because they are part of a run :wink: I did the same a few years ago. POTF moc was not me, I did not remember them from my childhood because they were not sold in denmark. So it felt wrong for me to keep them. So I traded them for meccano and tri-logo moc. I still have my POTF cardbacks, but maybe they will also go in the future. But my POTF boxes will never go for trade or sale
