Kudos to Oli!!

Awesome Bespin Luke Marco : )

After stealing my son's Fett I bought this : )
(Engineering Pilot) Princess Leia
This pre-production piece was found in the 2004 Earth find. It is one of two, early, made in Hong Kong coo Leia Engineering Pilots purchased from a former Kenner employee and auctioned off by The Earth Collectable Toy Mall located in Cincinnati, Ohio. This EP Leia was auctioned off with other pre-production pieces that came from the same former Kenner employee. This figure has K28 written on the bottom of her feet and was used as a pre-production test run piece. She was most likely used to test color, mold and sonic welding.

Awesome treasures guys!!! congrats!!!

Some really nice pieces there everyone!

I don't know how you do it Steve, but you make collecting pre-poduction figures look easy!

Tundra, I have to warn you, as you are showing the first signs of acute Ledyritis.
You are on the hunt for other Ledy Imperials by any chance?

There are a few loose Ledys I have my eye on, but the one(s) I'm after is a bit costly for my taste...
Not at the moment, branching out my "loose" focus to include some others of my faves, including one red imperial though
Nice Bespin Luke there Doc! Have you bought all of Ozios Ledys now?

Nice EP Leia Steve! You are one crazy man!

Jeez I need to check back more!!

Bud - Great TIE Fighter!!

Marco - What can I say about a Burgandy Bib (oh and those others too!)

Tundra - Trilogo Fett is one piece I regret selling, yours looks killer! Not to shabby on the stormie's either!

Thanks, both the Tri-Fetts are quite minty, tightest limbs I've encountered on any Tri-Fett.
Nice bootlegs there!

You don't live in a cave??? What are you saying, man? I always envisioned you living in a Wampa style cave. Warmer of course. With furniture.

Not a huge one, but I love it, this UK Fan Club kit came in last week:





all the best

The figure is packed with a bespin blaster but im not 100% its legit,the bubble has raised in one of the corners so i think with a lot of patience and luck you can switch guns if thats your thing

I got it for a really good price and it displays supernice.

Den har jag ollat!

Beautiful Leia Steve. Congratulations (Not sure what "2004 Earth find" mean...this might be a naive question). I tried to find a topic on it but could not find anything.

Marco: well done on your dark boots luke, palitoy isn't? I have been looking for one lately but could not spot any...

DelToro; once again you score beautiful set of LL! geez including 2 Jawas..

I've searched for the same thing, couldn't find it so I'm clueless also :scratch:

You can find information on it in this thread: http://www.imperialgunneryforum.com/t1221-the-pre-production-prototypes-catalogue-thread

I can recommend reading the whole thread, it's incredibly interesting.

Here you go guys. It was probably the last BIG prototype find. It had around 50 prototype figures in the auction that came directly from a former Kenner employee. The company that sold off the items was The Earth Collectible Toy Mall. So this is why I call it the Earth find.
Here is a link, or see my limelight here on TIG as it explains it (the 2004 Earth find) pretty well. Enjoy the reading....

That is who they are talking about when they say "The Earth."

Thanks guys! Helpful! Since I only recently started in the hobby more naive questions will certain come!

Steve: You are becoming Mr Pre-Production of this thread. Very nice score that EP Leia!!

John: I like that red Boba bootleg, looks totally bad ass.

DelToro: Wow, I enjoyed looking at all those Ledy figures!! Ledy Overdose!!! Great catch, congrats!

BTW: It is almost like you put the figures in mirror orientation, RR Fett standing on the division lime. Or is that just me?

Dave: Welcome aboard. Never saw the UK Fan Club kit before. Interesting stuff!

Sydling: Hey another new member posting here. Welcome!

Thx Alex. I think it is safe to say it is an European variant which probably appeared on different cards (Palitoy, PBP as well?).
He is a cool variant, and I am very happy to add him to the collection after searching for a long time.

Happy to see the postman today,

AT-ST with box and Imperial Dignitary with no paint loss on his nose.

And the nose is flawless! Just beautiful figure and Walker Vehicle : )

Here at last my grail item is back from UKG plus my harbert R2

had to use my phone so the pics aren't great

So there it is Mark! BEAUTIFUL piece my friend. You should be proud! I love the display case you chose, very classy! And it has a bit of history too, being the first RR LL Fett ever graded by UKG, correct. Nice score too!
I love the other pieces too (R2) is stellar. But I'm having a hard time looking at anything other then your Fett right now : ) Congrats!
On a side note, did you ever hear back about that Mecc Fett I gave you a link to? I see someone on RS is actively looking for one also.
