Curious if you Jedis and Sith Lords can help me out? How difficult is it to find a loose Australian Vinyl Jawa? And much would one cost? Do they come up for sale off the card often? My guess is not....
Thanks for any info : )

There are maybe a handful max carded. I've seen maybe 10 loose change hands in 3+ years. Expect to pay $1000 +.

So I bet there are a lot of fakes out there. Damn! That would be a very nice figure to add to my collection. Unfortunately I have a sick cat at home that needs surgery for cancer so I probably shouldn't be making that purchase now : (
Even if I had the money that would certainly be a risky figure to buy. But boy oh boy if you found a real one that would be exciting.

ps- I suppose it would help if you knew an Australian dealer you could trust.

If my memorie serves me right: There is exactly 2 carded ones existing! Thought to be faked because they came from the same source! But then one (or both) were graded. Am I wrong??

The loose ones normally sell under the radar...as I got mine! 1000+ is a bit overpriced I think, but maybe I had luck! I would estimate him for 700-800 USD?? Of course loose and ungraded!

Its difficult to say how many are excisting, because they sell under the radar. I know a few in collections, but I also think these were all sold by now. Not sure how often you see the same one change hands :scratch:

I think mine is pictured in two limelights and now I have him. LOL....

Well, no matter how many do exist, this one deserves the title: "rare". There is a minimum of 1000 Blue snags on one AU VC Jawa.

My guess would be 25 loose figures existing worldwide????

Great info! Thank you. I had no idea he was that rare. Makes me think he should be worth more then $700-$800.....

Info on what?

Oooops sorry about that. This should be under the vinyl australian jawa thread : )

Merged the topics,

Everyone have a nice day.

FYI there's a toltoy in north dakota on the bay right now -- or is it?

I seriously dont think its a Toltoys. The guys already been told its not one by several people. Plus the guy can take shots of the whole figure except the COO?

I would concur---
cape does not look red-- enough I ran a photo thru photoshop to better color correct everything...
what is the correct coo?? for the Toltoy- I still have to track that down..
From what i have seen its the darker brownish body figure and maybe #2 or 7# in Wollf's guide? - Guessing , being this an early ESB era figure

its either of those?

The colour of that cape looks good enough, after all it's just a smaller model obi cape and it's really hard to tell if it's fake unless you hold it next to a real one.But since it's on the wrong figure and the seller has revised his listing saying he no longer believes it's real i'm amazed it sold for $680 !!!

I think the 'answer' is in the Mickfett thread- & I'm NOT reading through that thread again

I too am shocked the one on the bay 'sold' for $680. Money back guarantee - somebody wanted a closer look/gamble.

Is this the thread your talking about? Some craziness in those threads of his.
