Ok so this is my friend's video and she's really stoked about getting original 12 back figures but while watching the video ... some of the bubbles look way off to me ... and they say Kenner etc. so I've got a bad feeling that she might have been took on a few a couple might be real ... heck maybe they all are but just wanted some other's input ... I don't want to disappoint her but yet if they are fake and she doesn't know ... she should at least know even if it's too late for her to get her money back it can keep her from selling them off as real ... but the video moves fast and it's hard to spot but that leia bubble is what really got me

won't let me post a link due to being new

but you can find it on youtube under MEGA Haul FULL SET OF 12 STAR WARS EPISODE IV A NEW HOPE FIGURES and it's posted by BlytheWorld1972

Send me a PM with the link Rusco, and I will get it up.

That eBay name sounds familiar. Not sure if it's in a good or bad light though.

Luke, Leia & Ben bubbles are too wide straight off the bat- I think all are recards?
Looks like Chewbacca doesn't even have a stepped bubble.
Tusken Raider hanger is wrong ...........

I am not an expert but I smell fakiness (forget that she spelled "coming" wrong in the opening scroll)

R2's bubble is wrong right off the bat
Jawa Cape looks off

Bubbles are all wide
You can see the tape vs. waffle

Should I keep going?

yep just about to mention the double sided tape line

The borders are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay off also on most of them. Look how far away it is from the black running around the outside.

I invited the video owner to the board... he called me a "prick" after I questioned if they've been re-sealed. He controls the comments, so there will NEVER be negative comments or people allowed to question him.

We will see if he/she shows up.

Ross, you might have royal friends.

Your friend seems to be SWFUK member Princess Leia Organa.

I custom made the Diorama at the end part of this video

The Cantina video belongs to the same account as the video with the custom 12 backs. I recognized the font used throughout the vid.

I think she would not be surprised too much about the bad news.

aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

ok so Karen is faking stuff herself??? ... see I know her through the mego message boards, so I'm not overly close to her, just a hey hello here and there and comments on her misc. videos, she is/was a hard core bionic woman/man collector. I know she's from over seas ... and I didn't question the bubbles to her ... I pretty much felt they were fake and really was thinking she was took ... due to not being a star wars "in the know" I wanted to double check ... but now seems I'd be telling her nothing she didn't already know.

Hi Ross, I don't know her, just got an impression by reading some posts on SWFUK. I don't think she is faking stuff herself.

I am just saying she would not be too surprised when realizing these cards were custom/fake.
Maybe she can check the receipt and find out there are one or two digits missing from the total amount compared to when these would have been the real thing.

Maybe she was messing with Russquatch?
Then she should have known better!

LOL LOL love those ads LOL


ok so she's not doing it herself just in denial then, I will send her a message asking her where she got them etc. etc.



and people wonder why those of us who are anti repro are so hard nosed about it ... it might be because it hurts the hobby all around

I didn't even notice that it was kaz. LOOOOOOOOOOOOL. Thought the hands looked familiar

I DO NOT PEDDLE FAKE STUFF!!!!!
Lol @ Kaz! That's a weird bird....

The carded Jawa is fake. The bubble and cape are wrong. The cape is "supposed" to match the figure, not make the figure standout.

She even tried to sell a fake Boba Fett MOC on swfuk, and the sandcrawler thread was AWESOME!!!

She knows damn well those are fakes and tried to quiz us as to if we could catch her home made fakes. She is a whack job.

She is no longer a member of SWFUK due to sending picture of her hairy batcave to the MODS, Opening sealed toys and bragging about it, throwing away toys and bragging and just being a general twat. It's your forums turn to have fun with her.

Is this the same one you were threatening to post a pic of in the oddball thread?Very glad that you didn't

Based on the description

Cheers
Joe

It's a Star Wars Forum (Sometimes).............not a Horror forum.

Messages from here to me (when I asked her to come and reply):

Thanks for the head up, TFB!

IF she would decide to be a TIG member, we would give her a fair chance, and judge her in an unbiased way, solely based upon her actions her on TIG.

That's that how we are and what we do. And that works out pretty well sometimes, a few members in this very thread can confirm this.

That being said, please give the lady a break now, also while she can not defend herself her on this board. The point is made, also by myself, those cards are fake.

Ryan: I think there is no need to publish PMs in public, especially while we are only seeing one side of the conversation.

I am not defending her or her actions (I don't even know her), just want to give everyone a fair chance from now one.

I know you did, so we should do the same at least IMO.
