Nice pickups there Jez, the Leia blaster alone can go for £50+ so to have the figure, card & bubble too for under £50 is a great price. Nice Greedo too well done. 8)

Best score I've had for a while :) the card is a bit warped but I think I can sort it out. Will post an updated photo when I've attempted flattening it

That is one of the things I always wonder, why still you can find vintage MIB vehicles still to an affordable price and the only answer I find is they were produced by the millions all around the world.

Very nice condition card too for that Luke once you flatten it out.

Iv'e heard years ago that introducing a little steam to put some moisture back in the card before you flatten it out can help bring it back to it's normal form, i'm not sure if that can damage the colours in it or not though.

The first Kenner 20 backs also had weapons on their hands as well.
I believe that the weapons were taped to the bubble on Kenner cards from ESB onwards?

Got a couple of Mocs in for only $35 each.
I've always loved the slightly grimy retail look of cards like this with all the offer stickers and catalogue/ shop price tags, they for me, become more of an art piece and more attractive for it, and tell more of a story, but then I am a bit mad :D nice pick up apack

I also love the price stickers especially the Mervyns which is why I picked these up. I have an imperial commander cardback with at least 11 different price stickers on it.
