James - nice set of toppers :cheers:they're handpainted 1983 H.C. Ford (UK) and come in a set of 11 (according to Tomarts, and they also list the Ewok as Wicket). You have two variations in your set and you need Gam Guard to complete the set of 11
Seems to be a fair number of mould and colour variants around so happy hunting  

Some more info and pics here http://www.imperialgunneryforum.com/t4665-tig-world-of-odd-stationery on page 1 post 1, plus additional info if you scroll down page 1 a bit.

Awesome - Thank you for all the additional info and the great link Paul

From looking at the pics in the "World Of Odd" thread it looks like I at least need to hunt down :

Gamorrean Guard
Ewok (bright orange)
Hoth Han (light pants)
Ackbar (red/orange skin)

I guess my Admiral I have is "Admiral Blackbar"

The R2 figures in the link all look like their decals are upside down too - I wonder if I can hunt one down with the decal the correct way :scratch:

Thanks again !!!!

James, Nice Toppers mate. 

I had an unhappy mailman at my door today... 4 packages of new toys and 5 random packages from Amazon... I felt bad for him, but I was happy with what was inside!

Here is a group shot of them all 4 packages combined together.


I just started to move my loose focus up from the first 12 to the first 21, hence some of the basic figures. The Death Star Droid is the best on I have had in my hands since I was a kid. Still very shiny and not many scrapes or scratches at all. Paint is very good except his left eye which almost looks like it was poorly painted rather than faded or chipped away (near perfect circle of missing paint).

And now for the more interesting ones...

A Lili Ledy Yoda with LL belt (cheers walkie!)


A Lili Ledy regular Leia Bespin with LL cape (ripped and taped - but it is better than my other naked LLLB)

She will replace my older LLLB since she is in a bit better shape paint wise.

I believe this is a PBP Greedo. Deep scar and COO#3 in the guide.
I didn't get him for that, he came with some of the other figures above.

I read the PBP/POCH thread and there isn't much there on him at all. I will post him over there and ask a couple questions I am sure!

So, nothing crazy, but some decent shpae stuff to start the next bump up in my loose focus a little at a time and with room to upgrade as well.

I did some artsy stuff with a few that came out pretty cool that I will post in my artwork limelight next.

cheers!

I'm glad yoda landed safely, if you need a carbonite block for that Han let me know?

HOLY CRAP!
I missed that entirely!

Goes to show you I am really focused on the first 12/21 with a little wandering here and there and that is it.

I had NO IDEA that wasn't a Han Endor/Trenchocat! I snagged him for the non-camo lapel on the trenchcoat and was going to rip his head off for a custom!!!!!!!!!!

I thought what I paid was a great deal for the trenchcoat Han, but it is 5 10 times better now!

PM me Stefan! I might be interested...........

cheers!

.........wow ........................

really nice pickups guys, very cool factory error rr tri fett Alex.

love those toppers james, and great to pick up so many of the set in one go, very nice  buddy.

a very nice haul of figures Jay, nice looking Wally and Luke x wing pilot. I had my eye on Stefans LL Yoda too but unfortunately i'm in the process of selling one house whilst living in another so finances are very tight at the mo, so that means no vintage for me for a while  really nice photos too Jay, that new camera and lighting tent were definitely worth it mate.
 oh and  at the han trench coat

lmao

I mentioned this to Stefan in a PM, but I thought something was odd when I was putting the trenchcoat back on... it was like cramming someone into skinny jeans that shouldn't be wearing skinny jeans.
I just didn't think that the figure was wrong.... still funny that something that obvious just went so un-noticed!

I won't tell you that even after putting him in a case NEXT TO a correct Han Trenchcoat, I STILL didn't notice... I jsut thought it was a Han "fat head" variant for me to look into later.

For those that know me, you know that I am pretty much a loose collector.  But I had the chance to grab these today.  Not sure what I am going to do with them. Although I am pretty sure I am going to keep the boba. Enjoy!









Totally didn't see this until way after the deal was made

Nice pick ups everyone! really impressive acquisitions!

Very nice mocs

I got these all in one lot and know nothing about them - I just really think they are neat - particularly the R2 .

any additional info on them would be greatly appreciated

If someone knows where I can buy others to complete the set please let me know - Thanks !!!

WOW... Nice haul there man! I love that cool Tsukuda back! Squid Head's???

Anyway....... one heck of MOC pickup and they all look to be in great shape!

cheers!

Thanks!  Yes, it is squid head

Great additions everyone.

Very nice haul there Joe!
That Fett is a beaut!
Love the 4-Lom as well!

Great Score Joe!!

There is way too much happening in this thread, so it's time for another update from me....



Powerdroid (Kenner) UPGRADE
Rebel Soldier - Dark Brown with Pale Face variant (Tri-logo/Euro)



Kez-Iban (Kenner) UPGRADE
Klaatu - Unpainted Hood (Lili ledy)
Luke Stormtrooper (Kenner) UPGRADE



AST-5 (Kenner Canada)
How Do You Like it Leaflet (Kenner)
ROTJ Movie Insert (Kenner)

Several upgrades for my quest for MINTY MINTNESS. Both Luke stormie and the Kez-Iban came with the correct black blasters which is harder to find nowadays.

Strangely enough I had the REVENGE movie insert but not the RETURN one, oh well I have both now! As for the "How Do You Like It Leaflet", this was included with the Vehicle Maintenance Energizer and features a questionnaire about your star wars toy collection on the rear.

very nice wilkie!  Great pics!

Man scored really good on this one bought this from a guy in the city for less then $60 I bought it mainly for the ESB & ROTJ portfolios but got a lot of really cool items with it some like the star wars cinefex book I have no idea about I am going to have fun researching all this stuff. I was even more surprised when I went to pick it up he gave me 6 postors for free gotta love it. here is what I found.
here are some pics of what I got



Two of 4 posters from Coke/Burger King


Some of the sketchbooks


One of a few books/mags

Cool, I've owned all those sketch book, note books and blueprints all pretty good reading.

WOW! I just picked this up from John, he shipped it YESTERDAY and it showed up this morning!!!

POPY LUKE !!!!!



The POPYs have always made me smile! Kind of a mix between a baggie and a carded figure with the added bonus of the Japanese Awesomeness! 

I have decided to put my MOC Luke FB wants on hold since I have been burned on my last two attempts (one I just posted about in the Watch Out thread) so I decided to go for a baggie Luke FB or a POPY... I didn't think I would see a POPY for sale or on eBay any time soon and well, both happened in the same week!

Anyway, I pulled the trigger with John's and am very happy!! (sealed baggie and both catelogs inside plus it has a nice acrylic case!) It will look great in my display case I am working (crap, I need to post up my updated progress on that project in my limelight!)

And, add to that, I got this oddity off him as well....
Crazy Mexicans! (no offense meant at all.... I just love their whacky bootlegs!!!!)
I think I will call it "Pew Pew Armas de Lucas" - Luke's Pew Pew Weapon.


cheers!

I don't have any pics yet, but latest pick ups are a Lili Ledy Lumat on a US Jedi card and the hook assembly for the Ewok catapult.

Hi guys, here are my latest purchases, sadly vader is just sealed the upper side but is a retorno card!!! Han Trench and Death star commander 100% MOC!!!!, Imperial Shuttle is complete with inserts, instructions,catalog and warranty.
 But the most special figures even more than the Vader and moc`s are the next bootlegs , they were made using LL overstock parts and authentic LL paint , of course this happened after when LL factory closed .
Leia`s helmet is just overstock, figure is normal LL.
Special thanks to OZIO!!!

What can I say buddy? Those are some amazing LL items, congrats DelToroSith!!! 

Great Acquistions Guys!

Love the Popy Luke but that Ledy Shuttle look awesome!
