The punch hole and the blister form is also told to be different on Spanish trilogo cards (very similar to the Meccano versions of trilogo cards). That's why they call the Yak packed with Gaffi stick a Spanish version... I hope I'm correct with this...

Javi - do you have a picture of a trilogo carded black boots RC at hand?

Uli

Hey Uli, thanks for explain . i known that there are some few Tri cards with rounded punch hole and GMJ S.A. write on back and different bubbles which are called TRI cards Spanish version (like AMAN -AMAN ,Leia poncho and the Yak with gaffi stick, but i dont known if those figures inside are exclusive too???)
Again sorry , i really dont know enough about TRI cards...

i dont have the pict of RC black boots TRI...and i have never seen it yet,please show me!!!

EDIT:The RC black boots on TRI card is one of those you mean?like Yak W/Gaffi stick???
Cheers
Javi

I guess it´s this one you are talking about.

What's different about the punch hole? I have some like that & some with a 'triangle' hanger tab.

The "triangle" punch is supposed to signify that it was released for the German market. Like for the German General Mills stuff.

That's according to Stephane's book.

LOL Mirco!! I knew that would appear for helping us!!jejeje Thanks for sharing.
So ,this TRI card have PBP back? GMJ S.A. back?or what is the history of this TRI??
:scratch: :scratch:
Tell me ,tell me!!

No...it´s not a GMJ. It´s the standard Trilogo Card, but the blister is a french one imo.
This Rebel Commander was sold nearly two years ago at ebay for 240 Euro which is a real bargain for a carded black boots RC.

RC.

So the RC Black boots is not exclusive to PBP cards, even isnt on a TRI with PBP cardback or TRI with GMJ cardback, so i guess it was also made in other countries ,then he must be out IMO
Thanks again MIrco!!

Slow down Javi... too many questions are unanswered before you remove the RC:

Is the small blister French exclusive?
If so (not proven yet) - did the French workers maybe pack up PBP overstock figures?
Has someone seen the black boots RC on a GB, French, etc. ROTJ card?

Uli

Hey Uli,i like this discussion , i like to learn

The purpose of this thread is to determine which figures are exclusive to Spain, IMO we must to value:which figures were only packaged in POCH / PBP cards , must have unique characteristics and only availables in the Spanish market (in this point i am thinking on the discusion about MIM figures,maybe this is a similar exampe but spanish figures) .

As I said earlier I am no expert in TRI cards , but logically if there is a RC black boots in a TRI card didnt made in Spain (TRI FRONT / PBP cardback or GMJ cardbacks, as far as i know...),IMO he should not be included in this list.

Did the PBP workers have packed overstock RC black boots made in other countries?

Any thoughts TRI collectors?

Hm... for me the black boots RC still is a Spanish made figure until it is found on an other card than trilogo.

Anyone else on this?

I agree. First of all he is far to rare to be sold on many other Tri-cards! Otherwise It wouldnt be the first time you can get rare spanish figures also in France.....with slight different paint apps!

Maybe the Tri RC and the PBP RC are not exactly the same! IMO the color of the boots from Mircos picture looks quite different to the PBPs I;ve seen! Its dark and its darker then the "normal" dark boots....but IMO it looks more reddish (maybe its the red backround that reflects....pictures can fool sometimes )!

Im also an unwise douch if it goes to Trilogo.

We need to do a lot of more research on these rare figures.....before banning the last ones from the lists!


I have a question to the Trilogo experts Mirco and Uli:
The Tricards shown on spanishstuff are spanish Trilogos or not or mixed up???

Wolff

[edit: double post....sry

They are mixed. I had a quick look over the figures.
Amanaman, Leia Combat, Zuckuss, Teebo, Wicket, Lumat,Nikto and Barada are spanish Trilogos.
Maybe I missed out some figures.

umm ,i think we are in the wrong way with this thread...
To save some time for ALL of us,IMO first of all ,we must to determinate which objectives caracteristics ( no founded in personal oppinions if possible)make a figure exclusive [u] POCH/PBP.Any suggestions?.
As i know that this will be too hard, we can make a list including the POCH or PBP figures which can also found in others cards like TRi or pailtoy etc...i know , they have slightly different caracteristics...
If this way doesnt works, i will give up with this matter...

Mirco, what do you mean when you say"spanish Trilogos"?TRILOGO Made in Spain Front? PBP cardback?GMJ S.A. card back ?or???

1.Hybrid cards(PBP 65back)
2.Blister, used only in Spain like Amanaman (special shaped blister usually used for Superpowers MOCs), standard spanish blister like Barada.
3. Large punch with GMJ on the backside.

I guess that´s all?
Any suggestions for more?

For me all figures made or modified in Spain are Poch/PBP exclusive.

Modified means that it could be possible that Poch/PBP bought figure parts from HK (or so), painted and assambled the figure in Spain (the brown legs Han Hoth for example).

Uli

hey Mirco, does any trilogo card writen Made in Spain on the front instead Made in Hong-Kong?

I don´t think so.
Some have small white Stickers stickers with "Made in Spain" attached over the COO.

do you have one figure marked with made in spain coo????....so to be correct: no figure is poch/pbp exclusive....

hehe!

Serouisly...a figure produced in spain and offered on Tri cards...no matter which tri card must still be a pbp exclusiv IMO...especially if it goes about spabnish Trilogos!

Wolff

Mirco...hoe do you see which is which????

I cannot tell differneces on spanishstuff!

First there are/is special shaped blister used only in spain. Nut sure, but I think Amanaman is the only figure.
Have a look at Amamans blister in the spanish archive and compare it with my standard Amanaman blister.

Do you see the different blisterstyle? This spanish blister was usually used for Superpowers MOCs, you know Superman and that stuff.

Next there are hybrid cards...front is Trilogo, back is PBP 65back. If you don´t have a chance to see the back, have a look at the blister. All hybrids have the typical spanish blister. Here´s my B-WingPilot.

Here is a common Nien Nunb with the standard blister just to tell the difference of the blister.

There are only a few figures released on a hybrid cards:
Wicket
Teebo
Luke X-Wing
Rancor Keeper
8d8
Nikto
B-Wing Pilot
Zuckuss

At last there are GMJ cards.
Here´s one...my Wicket.

They look like early french cards with Macao punch and small blister, but there is a little difference on the back.
Standard Trilogos have PBP S.A. Spain on the back and spanish GMJ cards have GMJ S.A. Spain.

Im pretty sure this one is a PBP figure, very nice han carbonite on the tri cardback with the "amanaman" type bubble. I have asked and looked, but have never found another like this. Im fairly sure it's a spanish variation though.

Yeeahhh ...I remember that Han. Is that your figure? I saved the pictures of your Han carbonite already a couple of years ago on my PC.
I have never seen this Han Carbonite with this big blister again. I wish I could believe it is a spanish blister...but there is no spanish blister with etched edges!!! Early french Trilogos do also have no etched edges. I guess the secret of your Han will hold on for a long while...but one day...someone tells us the source I hope so.

Nice post Mike, also just noticed the French address changes from one card to the other on those PBP/GMJ tri cardbacks.
