What We Know About Cardback Blister Codes

[spoons]

Sorry - I misread you first time :wink:

Changed my post but you beat me to it

It really is a pisser all this, yours could be a one off and PBP on 45 back is fine, but Toni has scarred this hobby beyond repair.

I'd almost be happy to eat the loss and let him off if he would come clean with numbers and affected figures

It would save all this endless debate :wink:

Andy- I agree mate. There is a professional body that I think could get to the bottom of this in days. Behind the scenes theres a flurry of activity that will hopefully give this an adrenaline injection.

Good to hear Grant

This is a genuine palitoy esb 45b bossk single stem from a vectis auction in 2004.
This bubble is different from Tonis single stem bubble which is unnumbered, taller and narrower.
The number on this bubble is 11.

This is a Toni:-

Have updated my guide with pictures of both:-

And palitoy esb 45b chewbacca is 02. Toni's bubble is taller and has no number.

This is a Toni:-

Have updated by guide with examples of both:-

In all the years I have been collecting I can honestly say I have never noticed any numbers on bubbles or knew nothing about them until this incident.

 

[RKW1138]

Thanks for the extra numbers guys.

Vernon, could you please double check your Chief Chirpa and Ree-Yees bubbles again?

Your Chief Chirpa number of 4 is the same as Han Solo and I would have thought that the ewok bubble would be smaller?
Also your Ree-Yees differs two other examples which have 16A.

Still looking for examples for bubble types 5, 7, 10 & 14.

US Kenner Darth Vader ESB-41D

Hi,

Here's a photo showing the '03''s on my TT Bossk & TFP along side the Luke Hoth from Vectis



Here's my Chief Chirpa with the '04A':





Ree-Yees - I'm now undecided. It could be 013A 015A or 016A. I will look in natural light when I can.

 

[mr_palitoy]

What cardback is that chief chirpa on?

cheers Jason

 

[spoons]

Looks like a Chief Chirpa to me - with a waffle seal and taped spear. Is it a Kenner?

Is it a palitoy? How many figures on the back of the card?
