Vintage SW is still affordable - £50 or less MOCs latest acquisitions

Shame about the head, but holy smokes it's still a brilliant price for that. 8)

The head is the main reason I bought it. I liked the rebel commander and wanted an esb and since the figure was damaged I though it would be a cheap alternative. Plus it looks cool. :lol:

I see your point, I mean when does a head ever come off inside a sealed bubble!, it's a cool and obscure oddity.

Great unusual piece and a great save, so many would avoid it, but you've saved a unique pice

Doesn't matter what you say a lot of people would shy away, but their just heedless :?

I agree, interesting, different to all the rest, i would have bought it...could be a rare variant :lol:
I'll leave up to the variant Collectors to give him a crazy title. :roll:

Not mine, but this is a very good price, no bubble lift or cracks or anything...

A couple here I'm really pleased with. Both from ebay.com and both came in at £45 each including postage to my brother in the US . The CCP is a 48-back with the additional bonus of a coin sticker. The Yoda a 32-back. Both cards have seen better days but I think flattening them, cleaning the Yoda card and putting them in an acrylic case each will work wonders

Brilliant!!!

Holy throbbing mushroom tip, an amazing price for Yoda right there.

Well done! 8)

Amazing- especially the Yoda!

Both are fantastic bargains!

Both are really nice pieces for a great price. Well done.

Absolute steals those two! Must've been some terrible auction descriptions to get them under the radar! Well done 8)

Great to see this thread resurrected.

Got this Weequay Tsukuda unpunched for £40. Bubble is yellowing but in great nick.

You're an inspiration Stu.......
£28 for this rough and ready Tsukuda (plus £7 post from Japan)

Inspiring thread this one!

Cheers guys. The recent spate of Yoda MOCs on the Latest Acquisition page reminded me how much I loved the card, so I started looking for a MOC example. I came across this one on ebay as an auction and it wasn't listed particularly well; even then I was amazed when no-one else bid on it. The CCP was BiN with best offer, so I put a cheeky offer in which was countered at $5 above my offer, so I took it! It didn't have MOC in the title but it did have 'Vintage' and 'Kenner'. I can only assume the condition of both put people off.

The £50 or less run continues. Added Ackbar today. Real childhood favourite! Most of these Mocs have issues but like all disfunctional families they have character and I love 'em!

Very nice, a Tri-logo Tie Fighter Pilot for £50. 8)

I cheated there. It's a reseal but only £25!
Very nice card as well.

Sweet collection to be proud of! 8)
