Well done Nico! Very Happy

The version I picked up is from a Playmobil license holder. Just like Lyra was releasing this set in Greece as can be seen in your pic.

Bonus question: Can you guess company name and country for the box which I just picked up?

by **Nico** Sun Aug 28, 2016 12:59 pm

Could it be FAMO SPACE from Spain, company name Contenido scratch

by **Dr Dengar** Sun Aug 28, 2016 1:18 pm

Good guess, Andy. But it is not the Spanish version.
It is a bit less exotic.

It is a tough question, I realize.
I didn't know about this version till I saw it on ebay.

Is the company 'Geobra' Marco?

The PBP red helmet CCP. What a fantastic grail item.
Congrats Chris! clapping

In a sense yes. cause Geobra is the German company behind Playmobil, the Kenner from Playmobil so to say.
But I meant the company importing the Geobra set from Germany and releasing it in country X in its own box.

Marco, Chris & Fabrice, great new pick ups. cheers

by **Dr Dengar** Mon Aug 29, 2016 7:44 pm

@ Fabrice: nice haul of loose vehicles and parts. Very Happy

Playmobil: This box was released by a company called Schaper for the US market.
Schaper hold the Playmobil license in the US till Mattel took over a few years later. I knew this set was released in for instance Greece, Spain, Mexico, and Brazil. But before seeing this box I had no idea this set was released in the US as well. It even comes with instructions and a mini catalogue which are both unique for this Schaper US set.
I am very happy to add this box to my small Playmobil R2D2 side focus.

I just got this fanastic comic from our province of Quebec. The story just seems to end, so I'm assuming there are other issues, like the Whitman editions. It looks like it was also printed in Quebec. It also has the back cover from the Whitman Issue #2.

Une Edition De Tresors - La Guerre Des Etoiles (Super Size) - 1977 Editions Heritage (Quebec - Canada): 10 " x 13 1/2 " (25.4 cm x 34.29 cm)

Nice Score Matt cheers

Fantastic Comic Clint yay

by **Commander Clint** Tue Sep 06, 2016 1:55 pm

Matt, That's a great score for $10. Is it complete?

Thanks James. I know there are some regular sized French Canadian SW comics from the same publisher, but I when I was searching google for more info., it seems to be the only super sized comic they published.

by **poncho** Tue Sep 06, 2016 4:15 pm

heres my loose upgrade of pinhead han solo. a few small chips but the red stripes are pristine as is the hair which is bugger to find with nice paint imo and its tight limbed

enjoy Cool
