Possible reseal??

What do people think of the seal on this one? The bubbling looks like heat damage. Not sure about the white speckles, could be damage, could be just a poor image with the flash making it look worse.

There seems to be some strange things going on with that bubble to me, but could be the photo

i bought a jedi snaggletooth in new york a few years back and the bubble looked like that also?

Could of been badly sealed in the first place, stupid amounts of these were made, they can't possibly of all been perfect.

Could be just the flash. Some spots look like they lifted and were glued back down. I am not 100% sure on the seal.

Thanks for everyone's input so far!

Does look a little bit like it's been glued back down the side. Wouldn't like to say for sure

Agreed, but would i buy it? No, it looks fishy to me

Is it not just the original glue coming away from the bubble?

I tend to agree with the above, I've seen a fair few like this but without it in hand it's always tricky to say for sure.

It could be coming away.

I'm pretty certain now it's not a major reseal, but it's hard to tell whether there's been tampering or not. The shape of the damage in the top right looks odd, there seems to be two tramlines, one sort of down and left by his shoulder, and the other down and right in the corner which both look abit manufactured.

That upper corner looks off to me.

Its the straight edge marks that make it look suspect to me. It seems as though it may have come away and someone has had a go at resealing it with a hot edge. I may be wrong though.

either that or a square piece of double sided tape.

omg I think I some moc that look like that :shock:

That might get a good thing because it might indicate it's a factory sealing issue. Chances are yours won't be from the same batch as this one? For info, it's a Palitoy ESB card. Are yours Palitoy or Kenner?

I will take a look and get some pictures :wink:

Here is some pictures of a card that have confused me a lot :? I think I have talked about it before :?

The gap in the middle of the seal on the bottom is a good sign. We know the sealing machine had that gap for the single stem bubbles.

I've got a Han with the slight wrinkling on the bubble join, and it's legit. Perhaps it was left sealing for a fraction of a second too long and warped the plastic slightly.

The left side looks a bit odd. The Lando had clear tram lines in the top right as if something heated had been used on it, but I can't see that on yours. Overall yours looks much better than the Lando.

Perhaps it was just one of the very rare Friday afternoon versions :lol:

Others will chime in I'm sure!!
