Zodiac Toys

[artoo_cu]

Has anyone got a vintage MOC figure with a Zodiac Toys price sticker? Even if you're not willing to sell I'd love to see one again. It takes me back 8)

Just acquired a nice Kenner 32 back Yoda and I can distinctly remember buying the original at ZT in Pendleton, Salford in c.1981.

Lost him in a house move disaster a couple of years ago. And now it's led to this... :roll: :roll: :roll: Damn the internet & ebay: I used to have a social life :wink:

 

[jayjedi]

were they a specific colour then

 

[artoo_cu]

No - they had the ZT name on them.

I've occasionally seen them on other vintage toys on ebay. Only seen one once on a SW Palitoy cardback in a US ebay auction. Narks me that it was in the US :x - obviously no appreciation of the toy heaven that was ZT.

But who else would get all worked up about a price sticker? Maybe I'm alone in my wierd world :?

Found one in my cardback doubles:-

That's the fellow :shock: I've gone all teary eyed

A double? PM me with a price & full pic if you want to sell. I'd treasure it forever...

r2cu did you loose a lot in that house move and what happenend

 

[craignwo4life]

Artoo, without upsetting a new member I have to say you are very weird to get excitied about a basic price sticker !!!! :lol:

I think you are perfect for this forum !!! :wink:

 

[mr_palitoy]

Here's the same one on a tri-logo:-

And a different one on a kenner:-

It looks like I have a pretty good sticker collection from my doubles. Don't mind selling you one of the duplicates, but I think I'll hang on to the rest.

OMG!

New focus...

:shock:

Didn't lose anything 'special' really. Just every loose figure I'd collected as a kid (60+) - all packed in a Rebel Transporter I got for Christmas 1980(?).

Think we didn't manage to clear out the loft properly when we moved house a couple of years ago. RT must have been in a box up there :x Still blame the wife for all the rushing around on moving day :wink:

Kept the figures really nice; all near mint & complete, so gutted now I've got the collecting bug. But probably wouldn't have got into collecting if I hadn't lost 'em

Bizarrely I kept the weapons separate and still have all those, along with a few vehicles that made it (X-Wing, Troop Transporter, ISP-6)

And yes, I'll admit I'm weird just like the rest of us :wink:

Hi Buddy, welcome to the forum!!

Its no use to me 8)
I can also state that jabba is a legend and very friendly, unless you're a united fan :lol: :lol:

 

[weasel]

We're all pretty friendly on here.
Even when it comes to football it's all tongue in cheek and "done in the best possible taste!" (well, most of the time) :wink:
