[QUOTE="Cazza, post: 457880, member: 5725"] That Tri-logo Fett is stunning! Well done on that one 8) Love the beater Chewie as well- I'd find a Chewie cardback to slot in behind if it was me ;) Carl, that's such a nice gesture- top man! 8) Been a bit rubbish updating my stuff, so here are a few bits from the past couple of months, mostly for my childhood focus. First up, managed to source a complete blue/red set of UK Topps bubblegum cards. Still have my very incomplete childhood set stuck into my scrapbook, but wanted a complete set. The Topps cards were the first SW thing I can remember really. The older kids at school would have massive stacks of them and would sometimes give away doubles (which is how I got my originals). I think I only ever bought one pack myself- I found out where to get them and I remember Mum taking me over to the other side of Cirencester to a small newsagent (Beeches Stores IIRC), after much badgering! Can't really remember the yellow/green sets, so not too bothered about getting hold of those.
