Really nice pick-ups darth-daddius.

The german Vader card is amazing!

Something a little odd - must be degradation, but looks like raw unpainted plastic...



Figure on the left is the pick up, figure on the right is the same COO but clearly a very different plastic used to cast the face

A couple of items that I've been able to add to the focus over the last few months: a German ESB and a nice Kay-Bee twin pack with Biker Scout - 2 imperials!

Its best not to say.... Actually they weren't too bad considering the rarity and one was a trade. Still, I'd like to keep those numbers to myself

A German Palitoy thats not a Toy Toni is a real rarity - great score!

some excellent other additions. That loose Tusken is pristine

heres moc i was talking about

Picked up this lovely Yak for my loose set and luckily had the staff it was missing. One more big one ticked off the list, thanks John (DarthDooDoo)

I've had two more examples shown to me via Instagram... so with your MoC Chris, that's already up to four examples

I'm actually starting to think it may not be degradation, but possibly just a light or miscoloured batch of plastic as so far they are all the same COO and all the same tone.

Something like the Hoth Trooper or green limbs Chewie all seem (from what I've seen) to be various colours (within a tolerance) and in some cases can be seen at differing points of degradation too... these all seem too consistent.

Certainly don't think it makes it more valuable (though of course someone will be thinking Geishia or Ghost Face variant £££ :roll: ), certainly makes it interesting though.

Instagram has also thrown out a yellow cuffed WBBG... that really does look a case of paint colour degradation though as it appears to have a redder tinge at the edges - always learning and seeing new things no matter how long you've been collecting

and heres my degraded lobot head i mentioned

Finally picked up my first esb moc. Bit of a beater but I love it.

I've got this Han Bespin with a very pale face. Always thought it was the colour of the plastic rather than anything else.



You can see the difference to the other one.

Super spooky. The "nearly headless Nick" Rebel Commander. I had to zoom right in to figure out what was going on. Had me laughing my head off when I realised :lol:

Picked up this fella up the other days off eBay. I think he's my favourite Luke incarnation, and IMO definitely one of the 3 iconic ROTJ figures along with BS and ERG. I know subzero hates this cardback artwork, but it's actually one of my favourites - proper dynamic; so glad I could pick it up on a MOC. The bubble is fairly yellow (but crack and ding free) and there's a bit of edgewear, but it's pretty flat and not bad for a little over £100.
