Haven't updated this focus in a while, so it's gonna be pic heavy!

Kenner 65 back proof card

I like this proof because the Leia figure was never released on a 65 back production card, only as few toy fair mock-ups.

Enjoy!

What an incredible Leia collection you have Bruce. Great job!

This is quite the Leia focus, really impressive.

I haven't had an update since CVI, so here goes!

Canadian ESB 41 backs (possibly from Toy Fair display)


The great Skye Paine found the first one for me at Celebration, and re-sold it to me for a very, very low price. I didn't even see it on the dealer's floor, and he bought it specifically for me. Super cool of him to do that, so a very big thanks to Skye!
I picked up the second one off of eBay. I like the minimal damage to the cardback on the second one. You can read about the Canadian toy fair MOC Leias at theswca.com

Also, at Celebration, I got a bagged Kenner micro Leia figure from the awesome Broc Walker! And I picked up the blue vintage Japanese keshi figure from Andy Looney. The keshi figures were gum ball machine prizes in made by Takara in Japan.


Kenner 32A

The 32A was my most recent purchase, and my Christmas gift to myself. This was the hardest Princess Leia for me to find on an ESB card. This is the LAST one I need for the ESB portion of my Kenner "run" of original Princess Leia figures!

I also finally upgraded my display shelves a few months ago, to better showcase my favorite character! It's a narrow room, so I had to take a few photos so that you could get an idea of how it looks.








I packed away a lot of stuff, and left my favorite vintage things out for display along with my MOC Leia collection.
I really like the way the new shelves look, and I couldn't be happier with my collection right now!

Happy New Year, everyone!
Bruce

Clean MOC display, I like it very much!!

Great Leia collection, thanks for updating, Bruce.

Nice update and love the new Leia goodies The collection room looks really good with a great mix of SW and other goodies too. Btw that Leia poster on the closet door looks just cool with the red and lower blue background - was that from a magazine? Thanks for sharing

I picked up a Canadian 20B MOC "Starpuffs" Princess Leia Organa. I love the large French logo on the back of this one!




Just had to share!
Bruce

congrats on the new Leia moc very nice Italian and Canadian editions, I agree the Harbert logo rocks

The Harbert logo rocks, even more than the Lili Ledy logo. And it means something when I say that.

Congrats on that great card, Bruce!!

I had read before about a few other characters appearing on cards with Harbert import stickers, but the Bespin Leia was new to me.

Great stuff!

Couple of beauties there - I love the Harbet cards as well - definitely need to get hold of one or two

Bill nice pickups! That Harbert is in great shape. I have the WBG (it's literally the one in the SWCA link) and it's not nearly as ncie.

sweet!!

     

I have seen your limelight a few times before and loved it!
Sorry I haven't replied to say as much before, but wow man, just wow!

I am a Leia Bespin guy and I am speechless as to what I see!!!!

WOW!
AWESOME!

cheers!

Very sweet Leia collection! I love the Harbert sticker Leia Bespin and your Tri-logo moc's!!

Thanks for the comments, everyone!

I have a new MOC on the way, so I should be doing an update fairly soon!

Cheers!

Bruce, that is an awesome run of MOC's. 

I have some Canadian ESB 41 backs with the tape marks as well and I thought they came from the Sears multi packs?

They are most likely from multi-packs, but some people think they might be from a toy fair display. I have seen a lot of MOC Canadian Leias with tape damage, so I really don't think they could ALL be from a toy fair display.

I wanted to share some really cool items that I've picked up over the past few months.

ROTJ 2 pack Squidhead with Original Princess Leia (packed with Biker Scout pistol)


Kenner ROTJ 48 back (packed with a Han "rebel" blaster)

The 48 back is kind of a "milestone" in my US Kenner run, because I now have all of the ESB and ROTJ card front/back versions for this figure!

Palitoy 41 back (reseal)

Thanks to Gary Smith for the Palitoy addition to my collection!

Harbert 12 back Principessa Leila Organa!

Not perfect by any means, the bubble is dented and very slightly cracked at the top, and the card has some flaws, but I love the "Guerre Stellari" logo on this one!

Had to share! Enjoy!
Bruce

Superb additions   The Harbert still rocks even if it is a little beat! A great card. The Pali reseal looks good too, and love how Leia's been issued with some variation blasters in the others!

great stuff love the harbert .

Hello all!
It's been a while since I updated my collection thread, well because I haven't added that much in quite a while! But I am really happy with my newer acquisitions.  

First off, I finally hunted down a 12 back Meccano Princesse Leia MOC. I absolutely love this one, because of that French GDE logo! I've been wanting one of these for quite a while, and I'm chuffed to actually have one!


And I recently purchased a 12 back "B" proof card! Quite a rarity these days!


Enjoy!
Bruce

Fantastic additions Bruce.
I'm enjoying watching your focus develop.

Bruce, those are some excellent new additions.

Nice additions to your focus, Bruce! Very cool indeed!
I'm a bit torn to which I like more...but I think the proof is just fantastic!

cheers!

Great going on the Meccano and proof

Wow! Your MOC Leia focus is amazing Bruce

Do you have a 12 back Toltoys Leia in your collection?
