Something a bit different, for me at least.

I had loose examples of all the die cast last time, but never had a MOC.
Looking for a Takara X Wing and TIE if anyone has any for sale.

Agreed, it's a great example. Congratulations on picking it up

I must have moved them when I cleaned him up :lol: :lol:

Can't beat a wild find, found 3 bounty hunters I needed the other week when in Durham, was a good feeling to finish the run off

I got this on a bit of a whim. I have had broken ones in the past but this bad boy still works. It is tres cool walking along.

Was it a local place for local people , were there other precious thinks there, how's Tubbs
nice pick up, there was a wampa at the boot sale the other day but they wanted £20 for it and it was very very uv damaged, I settled for the ewok catapult missing the usual tensioning end and rock for £3 but at least it had the hook

Indeed it is, we distrust outsiders around here :lol:

For 8 quid it was a steal, think their all uv damaged but let's call it weathering :wink:

Thanks.
If you do ever want to sell please PM me, cheers.

Did a fly by visit to Echo in the new car. I think 45 mins total!

Picked up a Luke Farmboy and a POTF EV-9D9 - I need to upgrade that to a Trilogo so if anyone fancies a trade and/or cash give me a shout!

What I found fascinating about Echo is how the range of figures changes. This time there was a million Jawas when last time I don't remember many at all.

Also next time I need to go early. I supposedly missed Trilogo EV and Yak. I'll get that Yak if it's the last thing I'll do. (Which it will be!)

Echo haul

Went to a show called Echo today, apparently it's a Star Wars event?

sadly couldnt get there but seen plenty of awesome buys shown!

Those Orks are well cool, and the French Chirps. Great Dagobah set too!

Nice Yoda,
What's the first item Carl, those illustrations look to be from the 1978 animated film?

Some lovely pieces. This has always been my favourite thread. I haven't had chance to post on here for a while, and these were boxed away, but I think I got these in the last 10 months maybe.

The Palitoy Han, Snowtrooper and Canadian Transition TIE Pilot are partial seals, but fully sealed for these is crazy money (if they turn up)

Hey Grant, nice :!: The partial seals display great too 8) Was nice to catch up with u yesterday pal

And this little monkey as well.

Speaking yesterday on the Luke Hoth Tri, yep certainly is a tough desirable piece :!: Excellent example there 8)

It is indeed from the '78 film, it's a banner, missing the pole. The plan is to get it framed

Though I recognised the illustrations, good idea to frame it, should look good.

Nice pick ups Carl, looks like u had a good day at Echo.
