Never leave a beater behind £1.99 from rhyl comic shop just because it had paint on it. Challenge accepted I even treated the antenna with some wheel trim gel 👊

Gonk Scrubbed up well.

That's a great job! Well saved and nice pick up :-D

I was pleased to receive this meccano sticker ewok catapult today.

Now that is cool. Kenner box, Palitoy sticker and Meccano label over the top. I have an Ewok Glider: Kenner box, Palitoy sticker and an Italian sticker over the top. These things were well travelled.

Poncho, that's a great score from eBay! There are still bargains out there. I was chatting to a guy who put up 15 figures on FB marketplace including a really nice Pop Up sabre (no sabre) R2 for £20. Remains of his chidhood collection.

Andy, that box ended up in the right place. It's was a great bonus in that genuine "loft find" of Deeko. Great stuff.

Been almost a month since I last added some new buys in this thread so I was working out what I'd bought since then. I was a surprised by the result. :D

Almost completed my first 12 run in the last few weeks. Firstly, picked up a superb Ben Kenobi reseal from Lewis ldr. Then, the legend that is Ian Palifan helped me out with Luke, Han, Leia, DSC, C3PO, R2 and a Jawa. All apart from the R2 are from a childhood collection where a door was cut behind the bubble, meaning that all of the bubbles are fully sealed. I already had Chewie and Stormie from Ian a while ago. I also have a Sandpeople MOC, so I'm just looking for a Vader now to complete my Palitoy first 20 run. Sorry about the quality of the pics- acrylic is very reflective!

Cracking re-seals Andy, it's a really satisfying run to put together and an awesome display.

Ian (Palifan) is a gent and pleasure to deal with too - he's helped me and many others here on their quest to put these Palitoy runs together.

Well done, hopefully it's not long before you find a Vader.
