Turret playset is next on my list! It's easily one of the best playsets made, and the most accurate.

Couple of recent ones for me:
I can finally get shot of my Area 51 Palitoy leaflet as I scored big time with the real McCoy! And at only £30 it was my bargain of the year so far. And as a bonus, tucked into the back page an nice UK Topps version of the 1st series wrapper!

Next is another Palitoy item with some great prototype shots in, the 1978 trade catalogue, love the cover artwork for this. I'm told the '79 catalogue has even more prototype shots in.

Your collection is starting to look more and more like mine!

Love both of those catalogues and still have my original toy leaflet that came with my childhood Palitoy Death Star as well as that 78 trade one with those cool prototype pictures in it, some amazing stills! I even picked up one of those wrappers a few years ago and could still smell the bubble gum

Great additions for you and the wrapper will go nicely with your box.

Cheers Ian!

I really want to aim for a Pali Death Star next but feel it might just be out of my price range. Finding one in a decent box, complete is going to be a long haul. Keep your eyes peeled for me mate!

Have picked up a couple of stunners for the collection - and massive thanks to Paul for his patience in waiting for payment and for the amazing packing job

Next up is another playset that I have never owned - picked this up over here - box isn't amazing but to be fair better than originally describes and then the set itself is in great shape.

pizzathehutt · Mar 23, 2015

nice stuff Iain!

Ive seen plenty of pics of the glue stick/ewok in books but very rarely see them pop up in collections or for sale, same with the bib fortuna colgate, very cool pieces.

theforceuk · Mar 23, 2015

lain - Don't really know what to say, so just go for the classic.

That C-3PO is amazing.

jedi_masters · Mar 23, 2015

Bloody hell Iain some lovely stuff there.

Love the UHU Ewok although I think it would look even better U Graded!!!!! :roll:

The 3PO is a thing of beauty and a stunning piece. 8) 8) 8)

Hi Adam. Sorry for late response, only just catching up. Is that a rare Leia Gansta / Cap-on-back-to-front variant? I've got to get me one of these

Princess Raya · Mar 23, 2015

And look what was waiting for me this evening when I got home from work - a box of Santa Iain's awesomeness!
I particularly liked the personalised Princess Raya labelled box - you could have charged extra for that :lol:
I do like a good Fish Head, this Ackbar will be taking pride of place on display! Thanks Iain, look forward to your next post :wink:

Grant_C · Mar 23, 2015

Pretty staggered by the stuff on here.

Awesome.

Mr. Bob A. Feet · Mar 23, 2015

Haha Princess Raya great picture I can just imagine Admiral Ackbar saying "it's a trap"...

Awesome stuff from all in the thread and why I don't comment here is because I'm so very, very jelly!

Princess Raya · Mar 23, 2015

:lol: Haha. I was chuckling "it's a trap" to myself as I was setting it up!

Stormtrooper37 · Mar 23, 2015

Wow Iain, they look better than when I had them :lol:

Seriously though, glad they arrived safely.

Clarkspie&chips · Mar 23, 2015

****ing hell knopie, that's some score for 1 weekend!

Here's my latest buy, been after one of these cunnies for ages and managed to get him for a reasonable best offer on skankbay.

The bubble is a bit crushed but isn't one I've seen before and I was wondering if Joe, edd or another trilogo legend might know if it's anything interesting. It's super thin like the typical anakin bubble and with the sharp edges but seems to be a bit bigger. No made in Macau so I wasn't sure if it was a Frenchy.

Stuart Skinner · Mar 24, 2015

:shock: :shock: :shock: great pick ups everyone, appears the price rises aren't scaring us off on this forum. Love it.

sith-smith · Mar 24, 2015
