When you put it like that Martijn, he really is isn't he! Awesome!

Arrived this morning.
I only bought this one as i wanted to see how AFA graded these tri logo's, plus Mrs had a 25% discount voucher off ebay so got it for less than a non graded peice.
80 card, 75 bubble & 80 figure.
This one will be a filler tho, bubble damage i can live with, card is pretty nice tbh but figure has a small nose rub which bugs me already lol.
Guess thats why he got an 80.




Good to see the grades tho, i now have something to compare against.

Nice Del, your last 17 stickered set is coming on pretty quickly, I hear you already got the big one out of the way as well !

To be honest, Imperial Dignitary in a trilogo bubble is asking for trouble lol, you will be lucky to find one that either doesn't have a mark on his nose or one that doesn't do it in transit
(Perhaps try and buy one in person from a show and you can guard him all the way home lol)

I hear you on comparing the grades though it is good to see exactly what AFA grading is like and what they mark down on for carded.

Hmmm, proof card- still gotta get me one of them. Great to see all the new additions everyone. Here's my recent upgrade thanks to Toltoyed

Good point joe, other thing thats a tad annoying is he has a bubble push on the front that would easily pull out with some tape lol. I've put him on the shelf with the others and he looks pretty good tbh. I will keep him and then when im done with the set i may upgrade. The card is actually really nice, just a bit of wear on the bottom edge and a couple of tiny creases.
I like the AFA case, looks nice so i may at some point get the others done. Or may just buy some acrylic cases, much nicer looking than the star cases.

Don't fancy posting tri logo's to the states tho!

Oscars cases make ANYTHING look nice Del

Nice find Dell!

I seen a couple of these with the bottom of the yellow sticker behind the bubble - so it looked like they were "priced up" in the factory. Not sure if anyone can confirm that?

I had a similar problem with My Luke Jedi. Those bubbles are way too big for the figure to survive a long haul flight without some damage.

The only thing I would warn you and fellow TIG users about is:

If you buy an AFA graded Tri-logo release (with oversized bubble) the figure & bubble may not be in the same condition as they were when they were originally graded. Most sellers will fail to point this out and will just quote the AFA grades to you. Without the protective inner tray, there's a good chance that the figure would of sustained some damage on leaving AFA HQ rattlelling around in the postage system. So when you buy, remember to ask for high quality photos from the seller or ask specific questions like "dose the figure or bubble have paint rubbing marks" ect - don't assume anything. This is especially important for higher grades like AFA 80+ where the premiums start to increase the price you pay stupidly. Unless you can buy it in person - maybe factor in a "damge discount" for yourself with the assumption it will get slightly damaged on route to you.

I paid a little bit extra for a rarer Luke Jedi Tri-Logo C-Back only to be disappointed when it arrived with rubbing to the face and hand. In fairness, the seller did an excellent job in packing so the card remained beatiful but there was nothing she could to stop luke getting a good shoeing inside the bubble.

Good luck Del

Very, very nice additions everyone! Shawn man, I know I told you in chat, but it deserves another kudos here! That is one sweet proof card! Very nice pick up!

Here's my latest addition. Palitoy Rebel Commando 65C with Palitoy Bubble (thanks for the heads up on that one Jay!).




And with that, I have my Palitoy run of Rebel Commando's complete (well, except for the 65A, which isn't known to exist, but I would love to be proved wrong )!

Palitoy 65B w/Double Stem Bubble, 65C w/Palitoy Bubble and 65C w/Tri-Logo Bubble!

Loadsa cool stuff on here recently, glad that proof landed ok Shawn

Very nice Chris, looking great! Can't wait to see some more additions on the future from you !

Excellent new additions Del,James & Chris,congrats!

Wow! some more great additions everyone.

Del, nice Imperial Dignitary. Too bad about the nose rub. It's crazy that they even come carded with that problem.

James, cool AT-At commander. Looks like a good upgrade to me.

Chris, glad you were able to get the RC with the Palitoy bubble and a great price too. It's really cool to see the run of Palitoy Commandos. I hope a 65A comes up from out of nowhere and you get it.

Well done lads really nice stuff as always!

Chris: would you be able to take pics of the back of the Palitoy cards and show which ones are which? I have two versions but I'm not sure on what ones I have.

If there's a link somewhere indicating which figures were released on what palitoy cards that would be great too!

Hey Craig, I don't have any photos of the backs handy right now, but I can give you a link to the Palitoy website.

Palitoy.org

There's a photo gallery there, along with a matrix that shows what's available for which figure.

Sounds like you need to leave the Ebay Ledy hunting alone. Your just not having any luck at all on there.

Yeah I gotta agree with Chris on this, Ebay + Nice LEGIT Ledy figures are going to be 1 in every 20 listed as Ledy.

All the best with the latest shitty Ledy deal Dan
