Whoa! I had completely forgotten about them! you turn the bottom bit and candy comes out.

Great find! I seem to remember they also did Vader, a Stormtrooper and C3P0 if my mind serves correctly?

From what I've seen there was Boba Fett, Darth Vader, Chewbacca, Stormtrooper, Bossk, 2-1B, Yoda, Jabba, Admiral Ackbar, Wicket, Baby Ewok, and Sy Snootles.

Cool. That's a fair few more than I remember seeing in our village sweet shop/ post office when I was a kid. Having said that I am in England so maybe all the variants didn't make it over here.

The ones below are the set I remember seeing, never saw the others.

Also just noticed the page this post is on..."2187"!

Steve obi wan is on fire :shock:

Loving the ewok transparency and the pal Lando and tri-luke are in amazing conditoon too.

My target this year was to pick up some die cast pre-production and I wasn't expecting to have done that before Jan was out. This is a 1st shot TIE wing with alternative/unproduced solar panels (no grooves). The COA is bizarre, you have to contact Tom Derby with the submitters name to confirm authenticity - very cloak and dagger.

Thanks to Crumm who kindly gave away this case, really generous thing to do.
I promised I'd get a picture up with a figure in it.
In it is my childhood figure with the cardback it came on.
One of my favourites, as it was princess Leia and had great accessories. I really like the card as well due to what I think is a great picture of Leia on the front.
Showed it to the family who all though it looked great it the case.
This my first case only having seen pictures before and I think it's great as well.

Thanks again

It seems that there were three sets. I found these on google images. From looking at the box there was also a taun taun.

Looks great dude!

So good to see you have put a childhood figure and cardback in it!

Displays really well, happy to see it went to good use!

I haven't posted here for a while but 2018 has gotten off to a good start with a couple of key pieces arriving.

First up is this. Whilst it's a shame that James has decided to break up his chewy focus I'm really pleased I managed to snag this as part of a trade deal.

I have also added this beauty. Very rare pbp motojet stickered speederbike.

Love the Speeder Bike and Chewbacca, cool miss card with Weequay. Nice Leia Poncho and card back, love seeing figure and card put back together like that.

12 back VC Jawa is a real grail item for me, congratulations on that. The die cast pre-production Tie wing is a gem. :shock:

Hopefully I will have some card backs to post on here soon. :lol:
