Strictly Vintage SW please!

I will start...

The General Madine Lili Ledy figure area and nameplate colour is PINK!


However much I tried to believe it was purple (I mean you can stare for hours trying to pretend its purple).... it's PINK!

Hi my name is Joe, been collecting for over 10 years and "I didn't know that till just now"..

Please feel free to contribute with the weird, wonderful and well known things that you perhaps just found out about (or will find out about!)

It's purple Joe

Maybe stretching the timeline but since I've joined the online community I learned:

FX-7s middle claw rotates around it's body

Where Prune Face was in the movie (and he's a good guy LOL)

The Black Bespin Guard Cardback Photo is him escorting Han in Carbonite (not just holding his arm in an odd position)

Stretching the time line like John:
The FX7 arm also
EV9D9 is a girl
Han Hoth holster can actually hold a gun
the Wampa kick

Awesome thread Joe!

Those are some great additions fellas but I have another one that I didn't realize until Joe started collecting Tri's. The photo on the Tri-Logo Han Solo has Han wearing PINK pants!!!! That one is tops for me! I mean the pants are pink! There is no two ways about it!

joe that's cool.
It's a mix of color between pink and purple it's called mauve lol.

it's lilac

Something between purple and pink





Since I have started collecting a bit more than a year ago, I have learned tons of things.

Just a few things which come up in my mind right now:

• Death Star Droid is actually Sandcrawler Droid
  
• The Palitoy Landspeeder has no trunk
  
• There is a rare trilogo box for the MTV-7 mini rig, X-Wing as well
  
• Mexico had to produce its own Star Wars toys because of trading restrictions
  
• The Lili Ledy Leia Poncho waers a grey grun
  
• and so on

Bunch of girls.

This thread is way too pink!

Pink

Purple is the new pink!




I keep finding out new things about SW about every time I log-in

Yesterday I found out that Pruneface is always no Coo.

...That there is absolutely NO end
to collecting loose variants

Lol Lee....you have to find your own end m8.



.....wait, you're right, there is no end to collecting variants!

I have discovered most of these over the years in other threads and such, but this is great for a refresher. I remember the first time I saw the pink pants. lol

I just learned this one now and of course had to try it out. Thanks John!


Here's one that I learned a few years ago that I thought was interesting. The Zuckuss coin says he's a "battle scarred human"

I learned today, thanks to Joe.

That a trilogo Lumat exists on a card with the photoart of Wicket, but a Lumat nameplate.

I learned that there is still lots to learn !

I didnt know that there were three complete loose uzay headmen in collections...

I recently learned that TIE Interceptor boxes have both black & white writing on them!

sold for $150

Someone likes pink

There are ESB New Zealand MOCs : "On the back of the card there is no UPC code nor any Kenner POP. Instead there is reference to NZ Toltoys." Now is it possible there is a NZ MOC ESB VC Jawa ?

I've just learned that Luke X-Wing's hair is not hair but a visor.

I just learned that 12back.com and swca.com disagree on cardback order!

i learned yesterday that Garouf Lafoe is a shitstarter

and that joe o 's real name is actually kelly
