This turned up today; it's amazing how happy a tatty old box makes me! Trebor cherry chew box from 1977.

Love this Lom, congratulations! A real rarity. Love these old SW boxes. I didn't miss the bubblegum box behind as well!

Thanks Andy - so pleased with it - and that UK Topps box behind it is your old one I believe!

Just received this, best thing I've picked up in a long time! It's the vintage plush Chewbacca, in great condition, and the bandolier is still attached with the plastic tag. I'm surprised how big it is, must be 2 feet tall. This one came from a guy in the UK, so although it has a Kenner label, it must be a Denys Fisher item - apparently he bought it back in the 70s for his daughter, but she didn't play with it much so it's been in his loft ever since. The label has some printing on the inside, does anyone know if this is normal for all Kenner Chewie's, or is this a way of identifying it as a Denys Fisher?

These Chewies are just great. Would love to get my hands on one as well.
Congrats, mate!

That is true, ewoks supposedly one of the less popular mocs yet Warok appears so infrequently

Lovin the plush Chewie Andy 8)

Nice surprise found on eBay for me the other day being that seemingly 95% of the time these days ebay is full of overpriced crap :!:

Fully factory sealed, a nice box and at £46 BIN an absolute bargain :D

Picked the Star Wars Official Collectors Edition Magazine up off of eBay. Not seen it before and no idea what to expect but it's packed full of great articles on the inspiration behind Star Wars, as well as behind the scene pics and stories, and info on John Williams, Ralph McQuarrie and the Hildebrandt Brothers. But my favourite dps was the Star Wars Glossary.

Congratulations mate

Some great new acquisitions guys.

I think these full size blasters are great, but They don't seem to come up for sale that often.
Boxed they look brilliant, especially the Biker Scout blaster, maybe one day...
Anyway, this loose one popped up for sale last week, advertised as the electric's not working.
Two new batteries and 20 minutes later and it's now working again, ready to fight The Empire again! :wink:
Oh, it's missing a battery cover clip if anyone has one for sale. :D
