| After a lot of thought i fancy putting a last 17 (15?) set together on tri-logo cards.
I know Yak is an expensive one, but are any of the others hard to find?
I'd want them in nice shape card wise, bubble dents are obviously ok.
can anyone put them in a rarity scale for me, a rough price would be good too.
cheers

| Achievable Del, depending of course on your condition standards.
All the POTF ewoks would be a good starting point as most can be had on a good card for reasonable prices, then I would go for some of the harder to find ones.
Don't see many Barada Tri MOCs come up but they are out there, in fact I have probably seen more Luke Stormie Tri's than I have Baradas!
Great set if you do decide to do it, I always liked the POTF range and might do something similar one day ! |

| Well tbh i would love a full set of tri's but its not going to happen, madines are too rare, jawa's too pricey and a few others would probably involve selling a kidney to obtain.
I love the last 17 tri's, and i figure some are quite pricey but not potf pricey.
Been looking on ebay for about a week now and seen some nice ones.
I may just go balls deep and buy a nice one in the next few days and see how it goes.
I'd want ones that would probably grade about an 80.
Seen Robbies AFA80 Yak for £600, thats sweet but cannot afford that right now. I will probably pick the yak up last and ungraded. |

| I have seen a few Yak Tri's ending around the $400-600 mark Del, I would personally get them all ungraded if you can!
Joe Y on RS had some nice trilogos up for sale ! |

| Well thats a lot cheaper than i was expecting lol.
Been away from carded for 6-7 years now and thought the prices of these had rocketed.
Seen a very nice pop up r2 for £125, is that too pricey? it looks mint. There's another on ebay at £150 offers. |

| I think in more recent times people that have decided to go after Trilogo cards have realised that in fact there are far rarer figures to find than almost any of the POTF line causing the prices of the POTF figures to stay at a reasonable price. Any trilogo will skyrocket if the bubble is clean, I had a Hoth Rebel soldier that was perfect, nothing wrong with it at all, I picked it up for $20 and sold it for $100 to a graded collector who sent it in for grading (now its probably a $200 figure lol) You can pick up some real bargains at times but condition will always play a huge part in the vale of any tri figure, people love them but some aren't happy to live with a few dents and we all know these are hard to find in nice shape

| Joes right Minty Trii Logos go for very good money.
The last 17 are actually quite easy to find on Tri Logo its figures like Tie Fighter Pilot, Ackbar, Luke Bespin, Luke Hoth, lei pouncho, IG88, etc etc that would cost more and are much harder to pick up in good condition.

| Yep for sure Jay, there was someone on RS looking for a tri tie pilot for over a year with no bites lol
There is also a Luke Hoth on RS right now graded AFA 80 for about 700 Euros!
Thankfully the POTF tri run should come in nicely under budget Del, good luck with it ! |

| I saw that one end at £100 jay, i may make the ebay guy a £100 offer but i doubt he'l bite.
I don't have much display space so a nice set of carded last 17's is the way to go.
I started a rotj run years back before i really got into the forums and it was a nightmare trying to display them all. |

| Actually Del, if you go hunting on ebay a little bit, you'll find a couple of the last 17 on Tri cards WITH clipper offers. If you need links, let me know. |

| "there was someone on RS looking for a tri tie pilot for over a year " because I think some of the alternate back Tris are harder to find. It is the case with the carbacks anyway. |
