[shuck]

hi all
im not a collector of starwars but today in a trade I acquired a number of old loose figures as well as what ive been told is a very nice piece.
thought my best bet was to ask some people who knows these things
anyway its a cardad unpunched darth vader figure made by kenner number top left is 38230 its mint 12 figures on back.
soz im not very teci when my son comes round tomorrow I will put some pics up
any help putting a value to this item would be appreciated

So far, all we know is it's a 12 back. That means money, but how much depends on a number of factors, mostly condition and if the card is a rarer variant or not.

Could be a beater of the most common version, which will only be worth a couple hundred, to some of the rarest in immaculate shape, which could be worth several thousand.

Vader 12 back is fake, so it's worth about £10, not sure on the loose stuff. :|

Shuck, as said, the Vader is no good. The sabre hasn't even got a tip so yes, £10 max on him. The loose stuff is mostly beater figures but if those weapons are OK then the whole lot is probably another £40 on top of the Vader. Hope you didn't pay too much.

Sorry I missed that, can't see where Shuck say's the Vader is no good.

He didn't, you did

Shuck, the seal, bubble, sabre (missing thin tip) font on card, etc. etc. Loads wrong with it, I'm afraid.

Hey Shuck, yeh unfortunately what u have there is a total recard :!:
The only element of it that looks original is the incomplete Vader figure :!: His light sabre looks an inaccurate repro can't tell if his cape is a repro from the pics. The cut, colours and texture/patina of the card clearly show its repro and the bubble/bubble seal r wrong. Plenty of this crap on eBay at the mo :!: :!:
