[QUOTE="**Delboy75**, post: 184668, member: 554"] The no text baggie, everyone ive ever seen or owned were heat sealed. The material is much much thinner too. Ive owned a vader, and helped id a ig88. Definately something that was sealed for palitoy imo, maybe even done at palitoy? Macau baggies, The blue text is the common one, always heat sealed. Much rarer, ive only ever owned 1 but seen a couple online are green text ones (like the r/limbs c3po colour). Mine interestingly was a macau r/limb 3po. All the green text ive seen are tape sealed. And then the red text. The red text baggies are really poor. They look like homemade jobbies really scruffy seals on all 4 sides if remember correctly. They are real, ive seen way too many for them to be fake but they are shockingly bad. Even the text is crappy BUT something you need to own Frank lol. Euro baggies are a minefield mate, i was asked dozens of times to do a guide but i always said i wouldnt as imo it would take some serious time to undertake. Imo they are too inconsistent, the majority of pal baggies were sold either in the wollies 8 packs or in huge bins to dealers directly from the factory. They were not intended to be sold in baggies so there seems to be no real pattern with them. Kenner released their baggies in purpose made multipacks, so you get consistency, figures bagged with the intention of being sold in their baggies. Palitoy baggies on the whole were just bags of figures to be removed for carding, its just how they were shipped. A box of say 400 figures shipped in, all in one baggie type. They get removed from the baggies and put into bins of figures. Im not sure what happened to the weapons, seperate bin maybe? i cant see them being tipped into a huge bin mixed with the figures as it would be time consuming pairing them back up. Light fingered staff would take bagged figures home, many surving to be later sold as 'attic finds'. These are real baggies, palitoy baggies but never really intended to be sold as baggies. Ive seen the DSD is so many different palitoy baggie types its unreal, yet none are intentional baggies. I respect what your doing mate, like i said before it was something i wasnt willing to take on. Im not complaining but the amount of baggie question i would get each day was unreal. Doing a guide would of helped me no end, i just didnt have the time to dedicate to it. [/QUOTE]
