Thanks Andy & Bill

Andy, the wings are about 17 cm (6 5/8") high.

Got to meet up with Clint and a couple other guys at a recent toy show in Mississauga (I'll post some photos from that shortly in the con section).

I was able to pick up a couple cool things but I wanted to share this Kenner Canada colouring book that I was gifted from Clint. This is one of those things that I wanted, but always seemed to overlook at these shows, thanks very much! (Clint also gave me a couple Ewoks VHS tapes... but you guys don't want to see those.   )

Great colouring book Chris, love the artwork on it! and I quite like old vhs tapes, they have a charm all there own

Got this glasslite (brasil) kez iban. Incomplete but im just happy to have him[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

That’s awesome. He’s one I still need for the Canadian MOC run, I’ve avoided a loose one because it has a black imperial blaster. I’m sure the glasslite weapon is beyond rare if it’s unique to that licencee. Condition looks great!

Thanx Chris , mines also missing the satchel bag thing but its a glasslite droid so ill take it

Good ine Andy!

Great glasslite figure bill looks in good shape
And Nice figure Andy, another line to collect

Thanls Ian

Great Thall Joben, Andy. I take some sick satisfaction in having him MOC as there are probably plenty of people who would try and open it for the blaster (Since a loose black blaster meets or exceeds the value of my Thall Joben MOC )

Here's my haul from the Mississauga Collectors EXPO (photos now posted in "gone to the con") [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Canadian ESB Dewback (There is no Kenner Canada SW one)

wow Chris that's some haul

LOVE that Canadian land of the jawas ,,,, sick!!!!

Wow Chris, that's a great haul of goodies, well done!

Thanks! I’m pretty excited about the dewback, neither have the instructions unfortunately, but the dewback box is in pretty nice shape.

Bill, that's a fantastic Glasslite Kez Iban. You must be stoked to add it to the collection.

Andy, that's a great Thall Joben.

Chris, that's a fantastic haul of goodies. The Dewback box is in awesome shape.

Never saw it before.

Here’s a small taste of the experience that is his book.

Thanks for posting, Chris.
Reading that excerpt was fun, especially as C-3PO was right.

Loving the Micro Machine Millennium Falcon. Great line.
I totally dig the Canadian MIB Dewback. The ESB logo on this box looks super cool.

Clint: Sweet cardbacks and cereal pamphlet. Congrats.

Fabrice: Never saw that Ewok puzzle before. Nice!

Chris: The Sandskimmer is by far my favourite body rig. Now get Barada to sail it.

Andy: Cool PBP Lando with a half scar.
Do you also have the Poch Lando?
Great looking Thall Joben too.

Richard: Congrats obtaining that Krayt dragon piece.

Bill: Nice pick up the Glasslite Kez Iban.

Thanks again guys for sharing all your new stuff.
It is a big pleasure to go through it.

A few weeks ago this bad boy was waiting for me: Rancor Keeper Trilogo 65-back PBP Hybrid Card.

A massive thanks to Ahmed for helping me to obtain this great cardboard piece. I understood he is one of the rarer (even rarest?) hybrid cards out there, and I have long been searching for it.

[200][You must be registered and logged in to see this image.][/200]

The Fatboy Slim cover from the album 'You've Come a Long Way, Baby' could not describe it in a better way.
Now the hunt starts for the last remaining hybrid card to complete the set.....a pesky little Ewok!
I hope he will be easier to find.
Cheers
Marco

Marco, that's a great card back, and it's in fantastic shape.  Well done.

What is the Ewok that's missing? Are there only a few hybred 65 backs?

Thanks, Clint!

These Spanish hybrid cards are an oddity, having a Trilogo front, and a 65-back at the back.
Presumably at the time PBP wanted to release the Trilogo cards, the special offer campaign for a free figure was still running, so therefore it was decided to keep the 65-back for a limited time.

Only 8 figures were released on those hybrid cards:

• 8D8
  
• B-Wing Pilot
  
• Luke X-Wing
  
• Nikto
  
• Rancor Keeper
  
• Teebo
  
• Zuckuss
  

and....... Wicket!
He is the last one which I need to complete the hybrid cardback run.

All figures were imported from the Asian factories.
Except for the Luke X-Wing hybrid card which came with a "Made in Spain" sticker, and was packaged with a rare PBP figure having the pinkish white face.

That was great information. Good luck in the hunt for Wicket.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] very cool Cardback run Marco, good luck with the Wicket mate

Do you also have the Poch Lando?

I got a POCH black neck Lando (no smile) from Javi a good while ago and will pick up a smile version one day

Javi also tagged me in a brown neck Poch Lando he was selling on FB but someone else nipped in before I saw it
He said he will give me a shout if he gets another

nice hybrid card Marco , beautiful

Andy i hope you get your brown neck poch lando soon bro , he's a tough one to find

Thanks for your positive feedback, Clint, Andy and Bill.

Andy: The "black neck" Lando is one of my favorite Poch figures as he can be recognized as a Poch figure instantly (in contrast to many other figures, think R2, R5, PD, IC, DV, etc.).
Good luck hunting the brown neck version.

Cheers,
Marco
