Lots of opened cards/reseals, but that's all the budget will allow!

It is against all logic and wisdom...some might even go as far as saying it's unethical. :D

But they sure look good. 8)

Great start to the run and good luck with completing it.

If you can complete the run you will definitely have earned some major kudos mate, good start, it'll only get harder and more expensive from now on in :mrgreen: (How long do you want it to take you? 2 years? 5 years? 10? as long as it takes?)

You'd definitely have to be in it for the long haul.

If not being fussed about which cardback and accepting reseals it can be done considerably quicker than if going for sealed debut cards.

And would still look great.

Good start and all the best in your quest!
Are you after any and all MOC or are you looking to complete particular sets ie 12s 20s etc?

I agree with the unethical, and it can also be bloody expensive!
It's a nice start you've made there, starting to come together nicely. Means I'm gonna have to look a little harder for the ones I need now.
Good luck.

Iain: It's a bed spread! lol

No time limit, as it will take a long time and a lot of money. I'm not looking for any particular set Palitoyjunkie, any of the ESB characters could be any ESB card, i.e. the first 10 ESB releases (30 backs) I wouldn't mind having on any ESB card.

It goes without saying that I'd prefer MOC with original seals, but reseals is probably my best option on my limited budget!

Amazing collection! Starting to have second thoughts about starting a Palitoy collection of my own as a result though - but that's obviously good news for you!

This is a Sweet run

And I think its a great focus to have but to pick up some pieces you better hope you win the lotto soon :roll:

Anyway good luck and it looks like you have a great start ,they look in great condition I have considered the first twelve myself but seeing how much a recent Chewbacca went for on Ebay thank god i decided against it , better sticking to my 3po Focus even though most of the c-3po Palitoys on ESB are one of a kind or really hard to locate and expensive.

Are you going after mint examples of the ROTJ card , Pm Coming your way on one I am parting with just in case although not in as good as condition as the rest you have there.

Thanks

Vince
