AT-AT-drivern tycker jag är Uzay. Känner igen den från en annan auktion där den såldes från Uzay. De andra tycker jag mest ser ut som riktigt fula bootlegs. Hemmagjorda?

Nja, de där lär nog vara relativt "nytillverkade" bootlegs av något slag.
Tycker inte det ser ut som någon Uzay AT-AT Driver. ---> Äkta Uzay AT-AT Driver
Mer info om Uzay (moc) kan ses här.

Om jag inte missminner mig så är Uzay AT-AT driver en ommålad orginal AT-AT driver (res. för minnesförlust). Dessa figurer ser mer ut att vara "källar-bootlegs".
En fråga ang. cardback varianter: På vilka cardbacks (ROTJ, ESB, T-L, SW) finns denna bildvariant? http://imagehost.auctionwatch.com/bin/viewimage.x/00000000/moridin/DCP01628.jpg
Jag har bestämt mig för att inhandla en sådan, om ni dyker på en meddela mig genast!!!! (endast Gunner är intressant)
BTW Vespass, suveränt jobb med att behålla Kenner Klubbens historia 
EDIT>>>> Tack Michael, jag fick det intrycket oxå när jag kolla runt, ville bara vara säker.

Heydorn
Letade på www.toysrgus.com och enligt dem så finns Luke S. (Gunner Variation) endast på ROTJ och TRI-LOGO card.
Hoppas det hjälper något.

En ROTJ Han Bespin C-9++ för $50 är det nåt att slå till på eller är det standard pris?
HILFE!!!
EDIT>>> Kollade runt på eBay´s avslutade auktioner men hittade inte många ROTJ (bara 1st / $64), jag försöker samla ihop lite av "hjältarna" (Luke, Han, Leia mfl)

Vad tycker du själv? Är det en figur du vill ha? Varför?
Går säkerligen att hitta både billigare och dyrare exemplar. Standardpris finns väl knappast något inom detta samlarområde.
Tror säkert du har rätt bra koll på vad liknande figurer går för på tex ebay.  Själv köper jag en figur när jag känner att det är en figur som jag vill ha.
Hej hopp!

Mig veteligen så finns det ingen affär i Sthlm och dess omnejd som har något gediget utbud av de nya Hasbro-gubbarna. Vill Du ha Lego är det betydligt enklare...

I. GENERAL INFORMATION
1.A. What is POTF?
POTF = Power of the Force. A series of toys issued by Kenner two years after the release of ROTJ (1985). This is a highly collectible series of Star Wars collectibles.
1.B. What is POTF95? POTF2?
Both are abreviations for the new Power of the Force line available in 1995. POTF95 stands for Power of the Force 1995, while POTF2 is simply Power of the Force 2 (POTF1 begin the original line. See Section V. for more info on POTF2.)
2. Are there any good sources for SW collectibles files/photos on the net?

4. Are there any Star Wars collecting Home Pages? FTP sites? Other sources?
See question #2.
The Star Wars Collectors Archive: http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/lopez/collectors.html The Star Wars Bible http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/~thurn/SWB/
5. What new merchandise is coming out soon?
For the latest info on new SW merchandise, read the rec.arts.sf.starwars.collecting newsgroup and read issues of the Star Wars Insider, Star Wars Galaxy Magazine, the Star Wars Collector, and Tomart's Action Figure Digest. Pictures of some soon to be released SW products are also available on the SW Collectors Archive in the section, "New Stuff".
Adam Pawlus has a regular email newsletter of new Star Wars products. You can reach Adam by sending email to apawlus@primenet.com.
You should also regularly check Martin Thurn's Targeting Computer on-line at http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/~thurn/SWB/calendar.html, which is updated whenever new information is received.
Kenner has released a variety of new figures and ships, see Section V.
***** II. KENNER PACKAGING AND GRADING (OLDER FIGURES)
6. Why are some of my figures blacked out on the back of my ROTJ card?
It is believed that this was done by Lucasfilm to keep the ewoks a surprise from people who hadn't seen ROTJ yet in late Spring of 1983. This occurs on the first version of 65-backs on US cards. The second and later versions of the 65 backs show these ewoks.
On some European cards, Lumat and Paploo and blacked out, since these figures were never released in continental Europe.
7. What does the C-1 to C-10 scale mean?
This scale is usually used to grade carded figures and boxed toys. It was designed to be more specific and quantitative than a scale based on individual terms. C-10 is absolutely mint, perfect, free of defects. C-1 is totally beat up. What goes in between is highly subjective. No matter what anyone tells you, there is no absolute meaning to this scale, and each collector uses their own relative grading. It is best to continue to buy from dealers you trust after you get a feel for their grading scale from some of their samples.
When buying carded or packaged items, always ask for a description of all defects in addition to this C-1 to C-10 scale grading. Some typical defects in carded figures and boxed toys include (but are not limited to): yellowed bubble edge wear creasing bends card is not flat bubble is crushed bubble has ding bubble has dent (bigger than a ding) tears on card bubble separated from card over a small section card colors are faded celophane ripped price tag still in place sticker tear (from removing price tag) card is punched
Carded figures sometimes sell for several times the price of the same figures as a loose, mint, complete specimen. It is not uncommon to see a figure that sells for $10 loose to go for $50 carded. The reason for this is that CONDITION IS EVERYTHING in the value of carded figures and completeness is the key factor in the value of loose figures.
The prices listed in price guides for carded figures are for C-10 samples. The price drops dramatically (sometimes to about the same price as a loose mint figure) if there are significant defects.
8. What does MOC mean?
MOC = mint on card. This means figure is in original unopened package. If there is any way the figure could be removed or has been removed, then it's *not* MOC. MOC says nothing about the condition of the card, which is the most important factor in the value of carded figures.
9. What does MIB mean?
MIB = mint in box. A toy is MIB if the toy inside is mint (see definition of mint). MIB says that the box is, well, a box. MIB says nothing about box condition, an important aspect of value.
10. Is there a checklist for the Star Wars cards? Figures? Playsets? Books? Comics? Etc...?
Some checklists are found on the SW Collectors Archive in the "Text Files" section.
You might also look at Martin Thurn's on-line Collector's Bible at http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/~thurn/SWB/ , although you have to access the data by the company's name.
11. Why do a lot of POTF figures have "yellow" bubbles?
Cheaper plastics were used for bubbles on POTF, Droids, Ewoks, and some ESB and ROTJ carded figures. The exact reason for the yellowing is still unproven but it's believed it is due to heat, humidity, exposure to light, or some combination of these.
12. Is Yak Face pictured on the back of a POTF Yak Face card?
No. He is pictured on the POTF Galaxy maps and the 1985 Kenner Toy Fair catalog, however. Some believe Yak Face was originally intended as a mail-in offer, and thus does not appear on the card backs for this reason.
13. Did Yak Face come with a weapon?
On POTF cards, he came with the same staff as Barada and Nikto. There are reliable reports that he also came with a Luke Jedi gun. Most Yak Faces came with no weapon since the bulk of them were originally on Tri-Logo cards.
14. What is the best way to store carded figures?
Your best bet to avoid yellowing and other damage is to store your carded figures in comic bags with a comic backing board. When you buy boards and bags from a comic shop, ask for "Silver Age" bags and "Current" boards. This allows the bag to be slightly larger than the board so that the average SW carded figure can fit inside. Some larger SW figures (e.g. Amanaman) require a "Golden Age" size bag. Place the board behind the card inside the bag and then seal the bag with tape along the bag (taping the bag to itself). Comic boxes make convenient storage units for carded SW figures stored in these comic bags. Sealing carded figures in comic bags reduces damage due to light, temperature, humidity, etc.
15. What does it mean when a card is punched?
It means the piece of cardboard for the rack hole is missing from the card.
16. What does 12, 20 ... Back mean?
This refers to the release of figures as determined by the back of the card that the figure came on. The first release of figures had only 12 figures on the back (of US cards). On the back of the card are pictures of all 12 figures. After that, there was a release that had 20 figures on the back and so on. The final card back showed 92 different figures, with Yak Face missing.
***** III. LOOSE FIGURES (OLDER FIGURES)
17. How many figures were made?
This depends how you count. There were 93 regular action figures, and 96 if you count the Max Rebo Band. The number goes into the hundreds when you start counting variations like blue Snaggletooth, vinyl cape Jawa, telescoping Luke/Ben/Darth, blue saber Luke Jedi, etc. Chris Nichols has a list of 120 different loose figures including ones found in playsets. If interested send a message to (anichols@bucknell.edu). The list is by no means complete, but it does cover many of the painting variations and subtle differences.
An extensive list of action figure variations is available on the SW Collectors Archive:
http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/lopez/textf/all-figs.html
18. What does mint mean?
Mint means new, unused, and as if you bought it fresh from the store in an undamaged state. 19. Did anyone else get one of those neat Rocket Firing Boba Fetts?
It has been confirmed by Kenner that *no one* received a rocket firing Boba Fett from Kenner via the mail-in offer. The figure only exists in prototype form and never made it past Kenner's legal department, and hence never went into production. A detailed story about the rocket firing Boba Fett can be found in Tomart's Action Figure Digest #20. There are about three dozen prototypes of this figure known to exist and they have sold for between $3500 and $7000 in the past year.
Several people have gone into the business of making replicas of the rocket firing Boba Fett. The most expensive (but highest quality) ones are made by the Earth (513 561 8697). These run from $150 on up. Chris Georgoulias makes a high quality one for a fraction of the cost. Contact Chris via email at stuntboy@ols.net.
It is extremely common to run into people who swear they received a rocket firing Boba Fett from Kenner via mail-in. One net user has offered a free Yak Face to each person making such a claim if they can just *prove* they received said figure from Kenner. This Yak Face has continued to acquire dust ever since this offer was first mentioned. 20. What are some rarer figure variations and how can one tell the difference?
Blue Snaggletooth- This figure was released in the Sears Cantina Adventure Set and is rarer than it's red counterpart. The difference is simple to tell, one is much taller and blue while the other is small and red.
Vinyl Caped Jawa- The first Jawas released on 12-Back cards had plastic or vinyl capes instead of cloth ones. The cape is not the same color as a Ben Kenobi (much to some people's dismay) and also has a very faint texture on one side where as the Kenobi cape has none. It is unknown how many were actually made. Since these figures are worth a bit of money it is common to find fakes (in fact more common than finding originals). Always examine vinyl cape Jawas with skepticism. Another way to examine for fraud is to inspect the armholes of the Jawa to see if it looks to be the right size. The cape should not reach the Jawa's feet, but rather end a few mm above.
Telescoping lightsabered figures- Some of the figures with the lightsabers that extend out of the arms of the Luke, Ben and Darth figures were made out of two pieces of plastic instead of one. In the telescoping version, the thinner part of the saber is actually a second piece of plastic that slides in and out of the thicker lightsaber piece. The Lukes are the most common (still quite rare), then the Ben followed by Darth. The sabers were most likely changed because the telescoping ones were expensive and offered little to the figure other than a longer lightsaber. It is common for people to believe they own a telescoping saber figure without a complete understanding of the terminology.
When buying a telescoping figure, always ask if the saber has two separate parts.
Rocket Firing Boba Fett- See Question #19
Luke Jedi Knight with blue lightsaber- A smaller number were released with a blue lightsaber which was made from the same mold as the green one.
A more complete listing of variations can be found at: http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/lopez/textf/all-figs.html
***** IV. BUYING. SELLING. PRICING.
21. Are my old toys worth anything?
Old Star Wars toys are usually worth something but often they're worth less than most people think. There are price guides available to give you an *idea* of market value. The value of a collectible is what someone is willing to pay for it. If you have a collectible and the price guide says it's worth $100 for a mint one (which you happen to have) then you might be able to sell it for $100 to *the right buyer*. There is never a guarantee you'll get that much. If you try to sell your collection as one lot, expect to get much less than list price for everything. It could take you months to sell your whole collection at list price. It's always easier to sell SW toys, but such things as paper items and household goods are almost impossible to sell. Also, many price guides are notoriously overpriced or underpriced. The best way to assess value is to have a good idea of the going market rate for the item(s) in question.
When most people ask this question, they are usually asking it with regard to the action figures they had as kids. Loose Star Wars action figures average around $5-8 if they are mint and complete with all accessories. No matter how many flea market bozos you see with $20+ price tags on common figures, it is *easy* to find most common Star Wars figures for under $10 each. Only a few select figures (POTF figures, blue Snaggletooth, some rare variations, and a couple of early figures) command prices over $10. If a figure is missing its accessories or has any damage (e.g. paint wear), then price drops dramatically.
Keep in mind that Kenner made over 250,000,000 Star Wars action figures. To get an idea of that magnitude, that's about as many pennies as the US Mint issues in a given year for the US population. They're not as rare as some people think!
22. What's a good price guide/publication for SW collectibles?
The Tomart's guide for Star Wars Collectibles is the definitive price guide. It is thorough and lists about every single known licensed Star Wars collectible. Tomart's Action Figure Digest (bi-monthly magazine) updates the values of items in this book. Get the Tomart's guide! It is the most essential book in Star Wars collecting.
You should be able to order the Tomart's guide through your local bookstore. Here are the publishing details: title: Tomart's Price Guide to Worldwide Star Wars Collectibles author: Stephen J. Sansweet and T. N. Tumbusch publisher: Tomart Publications, Dayton OH, 1994 ISBN: 0-914293-23-0
Tomart's Price Guide to Worldwide Star Wars Collectibles is available by mail from Tomart Publications, 3300 Encrete Lane, Dayton, OH 45439-1944. The book is $26.95, plus $2.75 for P&H (shipping costs outside the U.S. vary...call 513-294-2250 for exact cost).
Some collectors prefer using the monthly price guide for action figures in Action Figure News and Toy Review.
Although, not a price guide, an excellent source for information on Star Wars collecting is The Star Wars Collector. This is a bi-monthly fanzine devoted exclusively to Star Wars collecting. Subscription information is available on-line at
http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/~thurn/SWC/
Or, send email to Martin Thurn at thurn@cis.ohio-state.edu
23. Why is there such a large range in values for POTF figures?
POTF figures are extremely popular with collectors leading to some fairly high prices for some. Some of these figures are much easier to find than other POTF figures and hence the huge price variance. Also, the demand for figures like Han Carbonite, Yak Face, and Luke Stormtrooper is much higher than say ewoks like Romba and Warok.
24. Do fan made figures go up in value over time?
Usually not. It depends if the creator of the fan made figure does "limited run" or is well known in the collecting community.
On the other hand, if you look at GI Joe and Barbie collecting where custom figures have grown to tremendous markets, custom figures by well-known designers can fetch some high prices. It remains to be seen if the same will happen with Star Wars custom figures.
25. How is an auction or sale usually conducted on the net?
Well, the best way to do this is to observe several and watch how they are conducted and then to post on your own. Several guidelines usually serve to help things run smoothly like:
1. Make clear the currency that you wish to recieve payment and the form in which you would like that money (Money order, check or credit card [haven't seen any of these yet]) 2. Post accurate descriptions of the pieces you are selling. This limits problems down the line with miscommunication based on what was being sold. 3. If you have an idea of a price that you will not sell below then post a minimum bid for the item in question. 4. Post or mail frequent updates so that bidders know where things stand.
26. Where are good places to buy/sell/trade, physical and virtual?
rec.arts.sf.starwars.collecting is a great place to find out about sales and auctions on the net. Toy Shop magazine is the premier forum for buying and selling Star Wars collectibles. It also lists toy shows in different areas. The best possible prices for Star Wars toys are usually found at local toy shows.
*Every* serious Star Wars collector has consulted Toy Shop at some time or another. Before relying on any action figure magazine, local dealer, or the net, to explain the action figure market to you, do get some copies of Toy Shop. Each issue is filled with ads from dealers with *old* Star Wars collectibles. You'll be surprised just how easy it is to find old SW toys. They are everywhere! In fact, the vast majority of the question on rassc can be answered by just reading Toy Shop regularly.
Toy shop is printed on tabloid style newsprint. Most major comic shops carry it. You can also get Toy Shop from:
Toy Shop 700 E. State St. Iola, WI 54990
They are rumored to send out free sample copies.
*****
V. NEW TOYS AND MERCHANDISE
27. What Star Wars action figures and playsets has Kenner released in '95?
Kenner originally slated the 9 figures to be on the new line. The first cases shipped with only seven: Luke, Han, Chewie, Vader, Stormtrooper, R2, and Ben. These 7 were followed by Leia being added and then C3PO. This brought the total up to the original 9. While the C3POs and Leias have been hard to find, they are showing up more and more on the shelves.
The second release (and third release depending on your point of view) of figures included: Lando, Boba Fett, Luke X-Wing, Han Hoth, Yoda, TIE Pilot, and Luke Dagobah.
There is some variation with the cards these new POTF figures are coming on. Ben Kenobi's original card contained multiple misspellings of the word 'and' as 'an.' The card has been corrected. The new card also contains a full body photo of Kenobi on the back profile card, while the original picture Guinness from the waist up. The new card has the identification # on the back, center, bottom of: 5211791.01 while the original finished with .00 There is a misspelled word on all of the cards in the box for the SW Fan Club. 'Merchandise' is spelled 'mechandise'.
The Millennium Falcon (electronic), X-wing (electronic), Landspeeder, TIE Fighter, and ATST have all been released as well. These ships are all from the original molds but with higher detail than the others with regards to painting and decals. The foils on the TIE Fighter have had the decals replaced with textured plastic.
A Han Solo in Stormtrooper outfit has been available through a promotional offer with Kelloggs Fruit Loops. 2 Proofs of Purchase from Fruit Loops will get you a free figure (no weapon included). Like the original Luke Stormtrooper, this comes with a removable helmet.
SW Classic 4-Pack: see question 28.
28. What is the Star Wars Classic 4-pack?
The Star Wars Classic 4-pack is a set of four figures released by Kenner during the second week of December 1995. No publicity was given for this set. It has only been spotted at Toys 'R Us but is not described on the box as an exclusive. The set contains 4 figures: Luke, Darth, Han (small head), and Chewbacca. These figures have been cast by making a mold from the older figures and look very similar to Kenner's original line. There are differences. The copyright date on the figures has been changed` from 1977 to 1995. The peg holes in the feet are slightly smaller. The figures are also cast from different plastic (similar to the POTF2 line) and are slightly smaller than the originals. The lightsabers on the figures are 1 pieced. The guns are made of different plastic but difficult to distinguish from originals. The set sells for $19.95 at TRU. It is unknown wether or not Kenner plans to continue with the classic line of figures.
29. What is Star Wars Action Fleet?
Star Wars Action Fleet is a new line released by Galoob. The toys contain a ship: X-wing, A-wing, TIE Fighter, ATAT, Snow Speeder, and Shuttle Tyderium. The ships are about 4-6in long and come with a stand. They come with smaller figures similar to the Micro-Machines playsets but slightly larger and with some moving joints. (i.e. A-wing comes with a pilot and a 3PO type droid. They retail at TRU for ~$9.99.
***** VI. Non-KENNER MERCHANDISE
30. Is it true that there is a C-3PO penis card? How much is it worth?
Yes. Some collectors are willing to pay up to US$20 for this curiosity, even though it is as plentiful as any other Topps Series 4 card. This card was created when a mischievous Lucasfilm employee "enhanced" the artwork to give 3P0 a "chromie" before it was sent to Topps for printing.
31. What about Foreign Star Wars figures?
Several manufacturers packaged the same figures that Kenner Produced in their own packaging with a different language. An examples of this is: Meccano in France. Other manufacturers actually put out different figures like the Japanese ones put out by Takara. For more information on these sort of things, Tomarts Price Guide to Worldwide Star Wars Collectables is the best source to see.

Jag förmodar att du menar denna ?
Förutsatt att det nu är den så är den nog tyvärr inte värd så mycket. Men först bör jag nog nämna att den är värderad i "Collectors guide 2001" till 13 dollar i näst intill perfekt skick (C9). Min tveksamhet till den värderingen är tyvärr(?) baserad på egna erfarenheter när jag för cirka 4 månader sedan sålde den på Tradera. Allt jag behöver säga om det för att du ska förstå är att jag hade den ute tre gånger innan jag fick den såld för 50 kr. Den var i C8 bör nämnas.
Grundproblemet med denna figur är att efterfrågan är låg samt att den aldrig varit speciellt svår att få tag på (i alla fall inte i Sverige).

Echuu Är figuren oöppnad så är det inte ketym att man graderar själva figuren. Graderingsbeteckningen som ges gäller alltså för förpackningen.
Hoth Han Solo är vanlig och tämligen tråkig. Räkna därför inte med något värde alls, typ. Sorry.

Johan, har du sänt nån MOC till AFA någongång?
EDIT>>> Jo, jag fick hem min Trilogo Luke X-Wing idag och precis som säljaren lovat finns det inget fel alls på den (ett par små repor på bubblan är det enda jag hittat) annars ignet edgewear, creases å bubblan är perfekt.
Skulle va kul att gradera en figur själv i stället för att köpa dom (om man nu måste).
Jag måste ju ge min AFA 80 ESB Tusken en kompis  |

Nix, det har jag inte. Ser ingen anledning till att göra det heller.
Funderar du på det?
edit: Själv så ser jag inte vittsen med AFA om man nu inte ska sälja = bättre förtjänst (kanske). Dyrt, krångligt och onödigt. Visst, det kanske ger högre "inbördes-beundran"-poäng i samlarkretsar eftersom det verkar lite "inne" med AFA för tillfället.
Men skicka in tri-logon, läste någonstans att AFA är lite tjuriga just med tri-logos. Tydligen inte många som fått höga betyg. Skulle ju vara tufft och kolla vad de säger om den om den är så fin som den ser ut att vara på bilderna jag sett.

Bättre förtjäns är ointressant, när man har en MOC i perfekt skick ser jag ingen anledning att sälja den.

Detta är oxå vad jag hört, det ökar ju suget lite grann, jag skulle bli chockad om den kom tillbaka graderad 80. För utom de små reporna på bubblan hittar jag verkligen inget fel. Jag tar nog och skickar in den, kanske väntar till jag fått min Trilogo TIE Pilot oxå men den är snäppet sämre skick.

Hehe, det verkar ju inte bättre än så (att du är besatt)...
Har du någon bra tri-logo-kontakt eller? Har du lagt om fokus till tri-logos? Det är väl en frågetråd? 
Gillar man casen som AFA sluter figuren i så funkar ju de hårda acrylic casen som finns att köpa. Blir jäkla mycket billigare. + att vissa som skickar sina figurer till AFA verkar vara missnöjda och tjatar om att de tycker sin AFA 75 är finare än sin AFA 80 och kan inte förstå varför den ena fick det bättre betyget än den andra...suck. Lite tröttsamt. Men smaken är ju som baken...
Föresten, ska du ned till Malmö?

Nja det kan jag väl inte påstå, det är snarare att vissa trilogo´s är mycket mer snygga/spännande än ROTJ (T.ex. TIE Pilot), men det finns givetvis undantag, jag köpte en Luke Poncho nyss som jag nog får sälja bort igen... min POTF är läckrare.
Malmö????..... Jag funderar på det, det beror på familje situationen dock.
Om man jämför Hammerhead, Greedo & Snaggle på trilogo kort med Bespin Guard.... är dom lika ovanliga eller är just Bespin Guard ovanligare???
Du verkar ha fastnat ordentligt för Vita Bespin Guarden, varför????

Vad ska du ha för den? Luke:n alltså, hehe. Ska du sälja så kanske jag är intresserad. Kanske har något att byta med tom...bara säg till om du ska göra dig av med tri-logos.
Bespin guarden tenderar till att kosta lite mer. Tror den är mer ovanlig än övriga. Mest ovanlig när det gäller tri-logo hybriderna är nog dock Cloud Car Piloten. 
Vet inte varför det blev just wbg:en. Kanske för att det är en människa och en skäggig sådan...  Gillar den cardbacken, ren o snygg. Kul att ha ett litet focus på sidan om. Köpa något enstaka proof card och så, hehe.
Sådär ja, lite smilies fick jag med också.
Tillägg: Gott. En annan sak, bespin guarden på tri-logo gäller först och främst den vita. Den färgade är inte lika ovanlig.

Tjena alla SW fans jag har hittat min samling från förr djävligt kul med alla dessa minnen man har från denna tid då allt var Starwars. nu till min fråga (det kommer flera liknande frågor senare var så säker)
Jag har Anamanaman eller nåt vad är den värd utan sin stav? sen har jag en sorts bil från Empire strikes back planeten Hoth tror jag den har två breda ljul en liten sits för en förare och en kanon på vad är det och vad är en sån värd?
Jag råkade posta en likadan fråga som ny trår det var inte meningen "alla barn i början" |

Hrm.. Staven i sig är värd ett par hundringar. Jag skulle säga 300-400 i bra skick utan staven.
Inga fantasisummor direkt. Komplett i mint-skick kan man få ge en 700-800 för och ibland mer.

| Jag har fått en Max Rebo-gubbe från gissningsvis tidigt åttiotal. Den har grå armar, fötter och huvud istället för den sedvanliga ljusblå färgen. Är den extremt ovanlig och värd kollosalt mycket pengar? |

Jan: Antagligen är du "ironisk" nu men jag svarar ändå.
Den är missfärgad/blekt, förmodligen av solljus eller liknande. Den är inte värd mer än några kronor men om du söker upp samlare som riktar in sig på solblekta saker (som tex vespass) så kan du nog tjäna en slant...

En fråga till de som har eller samalar på Star Wars figurer.
Har ni dem i förpakningen eller står de lösa på hyllan? Om man har de i förpackningarna så kan man inte se hela figuren och det ser otroligt tråkigt ut när de ståre i förpackning, och det är mycket grymare om man fyller en hel hylla med figurer och skepp...
(svara på detta eftersom jag undrar och funderar) |
