I never get any leads on bulk buys at decent prices, but this lot has literally landed in my lap. The majority of it I'll be keeping, pending what folk think the values are due to me having upgraded my own existing items through this buy I might be selling the Cloud City, VME and Micro collection set, I'll pop those up first....

CLOUD CITY

That Jawa is a bloody corker mate! £400-500?

Leia would be around £100-130

Threepio likely to be around the same, possibly more.

Cloud City £300-350 in that condition, again, really nice set and stunning condition.

Micro, about £45.

VME, £25-ish.

If the Threepio becomes available Steve, let me know mate.

Same seller has this lot at an asking price of £35 each or £300 for the lot.. might be able to squeeze him a touch more if pushed. Not starting an auction, if anyone wants me to get them for them though, give me a shout. He has said he'll hold them for a week..

Akbar has a cracked bubble on the left side by the 'weapon'. I have close-ups on the fronts of them if anyone is dead keen send me a PM.

Cheers Mark, those prices are really helpful!
At the moment I really want to keep hold of the 12" boxed.

Me neither, I'm still in shock how it came about.

Its one of those friends of a friend who saw some of my SW related posts on Instagram and thought I might be interested when they herd the guy was selling and then with a few messages put me in touch with this guy I was able to meet and to do the deal.

On the Collectors Galaxy podcast the other week they were saying the best way to get a lead is to tell everyone you meet you like SW and of course wear the T-shirts and have a bumper sticker etc. it seems that this kinda fell my way for very similar reasons.

Great find, mate! Some real quality stuff there, too. I've found that SW has been around for so long now that the best finds are old collections rather than from childhood collections. You generally get a much better quality of product and I've also found that the prices are usually more sensible than the one owner from new stuff!

The Cloud City set is one of the very few Kenner only items that I would love to own. I think because Bespin was so poorly represented in the toy line and also because of the incredibly cool colours on the box.
