| Nice Fetts! And a BIG congrats to you : ) I'm confused though why AFA would only grade with black guns when he came with both black and blue? Either way, GREAT job : ) |

I was on vacation when I got the email asking me to send in black guns - for both the removable and fixed rocket Fetts - to complete the authentication. |

| That is bloody awesome- I didn't realise all the different transforming options it has Any chance of a side by side pic with a Kenner version for size comparison. It looks similar in size to a micro version?? |

| Thanks everyone for the comments on my burgandy squid.
That x-wing looks really cool. Great addition to your focus Paul, no wonder you're very pleased!
I really like those clipper moc's & of course the Ledy Fetts!

AJ, I added a pic. It's just a little smaller, not much, than a regular production XWing. There is also another Takara version (non-transforming) that is just a bit bigger than the Micro collection one. |

-Steve Durimg the course of looking for Ledy Fetts over the past couple of years, I had run across one listing for a fixed rocket Fett with the rarer blue gun, This was also confirmed to be the case by the seller I bought this from (Adolfo). When I saw the blue guns on these two, I jumped on the chance to purchase. Unfortunately, AFA wouldn't grade them with the Ledy Fetts. |

| Yes, that is a neat X-Wing! I especially like the graphics on the box (artist rendition of the ship) compared to the photo used by Kenner/Palitoy. |

I heard back from Ozio. It could just simply be a case that AFA doesn't have a graded carded LL Fett with blue gun yet. I wouldn't be too concerned as you got it graded. I have a blue LL blaster also and it matches my black one exactly.... |

| I need some help here, this is not my recent purchase, i am still negotiating it,ledy cardbacks shows a "espada lazer" lightsaber but i know was never produced, cause "Ensueño" or "IGA" produced one before Lili Ledy did it,this is the seller history I ask some collectors here in México, no body remember one done by Lili Ledy, but some remember a lightsaber next to Lili Ledy figures in stores,and just one told the same seller history,does someone know something?? in the seller pics he makes a comparison versus a Kenner lighsaber, moulds are the same
