Jason, thanks for sharing the pics of the Redwood trip, a walk in the woods is always pleasant but adding in the Return Of The Jedi speeder bike sequence makes it all the more special!

I'd like to go walking in Puzzle Wood to see some of the shots from The Force Awakens... maybe will make the trip one day.

Matt, I went to Puzzlewood last week; its a fantastic 2-2.5hrs wander and totally worth the trip. I took a bunch of pics (some are on my Instagram), but as Richard H is arranging a forum visit in less than a month I've refrained from posting here until after more of the lads get to see it.

grew up around puzzlewood asa kid, who knew eventually my fav film would be shot there... also took a wander around the lake district this week and took in where they filmed tge x wing sequence across the lake in tfa

That's an amazing cardback. Some of those canadian CBs/MOCs are so hard to get your hands on (as most focus collector's will know).
One lucky chap got two POPs :wink:

Brilliant cardback mate!

Nice transition cardback. Only saw the front sticker second time round. Quality.

Here's a set of stickers I'd never seen before. Found them on eBay and having dropped the seller a few message sfound out only a little bit more on them. Apparently they were promotional items given away at Dutch "Satin" book stores for a short period of time. There were 6 stickers in the set and are actually woven nylon stickers rather than paper. That's all I could find out.

Given the condition and the fact the seller listed up another set straight away I'd say there's been a new old stock discovery of these. I think they look fantastic. If anyone wants a set the current listing is : https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/263075539449

Real cool cardback Rob 8)

After all the awesomeness a spot of light relief, thanks to leemcl I have this Wicket cardback to finish off my super rare Wicket/R2 miscard :lol:

Haha what a cool thing to own, I wonder what the backstory is of how it got miscarded, i'd love to know.

The factory worker distracted waffling shite to another worker and grabbing the wrong figure?, or maybe a clueless worker new in the job?, or even someone doing it for a laugh, revenge on their boss because they hated their job??, the possibilities are endless

Looks like Lando is enjoying it :wink:

Hey guys, my names Mike and I'm new to the forum.
Gave up collecting 12 years ago as all my Mocs were stolen when my parents house got burgled. Anyway I've recently started collecting again, look forward to sharing more pictures and maybe acquiring more for my collection from you

Now that is a modern collectible I can appreciate.

I clicked on the link to the website and unfortunately they are out of stock and doesn't look like they ship to the U.S.
Don't tease me like that!

And Lando looks a little creepy (and guilty) staring through the peg hole.

Lando and the glory hole are fine, he's still smiling after all
