Re: Favorite purchase 2018
I was very pleased to add this PBP Lando paint error figure to my small Lando focus, it was from the collection of our late good friend Steve Pullman who I know was very fond of this figure, it means a lot for me to look after it now

Re: Favorite purchase 2018
I think my favourite piece from this year, was the Canadian Coca Cola Match and Win dealer poster.

Re: Favorite purchase 2018
I’ve gotta give this some thought. I think I’ll have it before the end of the year.
If not, I’ve got a good runner-up.

Re: Favorite purchase 2018
After thinking about this for a while, it’s gotta be my 12B Canadian R2-D2. I didn’t expect to have any Canadian 12 backs and the only reason I have this one is because someone submitted this little guy to AFA and he got a 50.
I love it, look at it, and enjoy it regularly.![popcorn](/users/3513/12/48/66/smiles/2348474534.gif)

Re: Favorite purchase 2018
Great items guys.
I think I did my favorite 2018 purchase, when I went for a trip to Brussels and found this piece in the store-window of a comic-shop.

... close to this old General Mills Poster (168 x 119 cm) you could get for a small amount in german toy-stores in the good old days.
This one was found in an WWII bunker where it was wallpapered on the plaster and carefully removed.
Paid a fortune of € 1 on ebay on this piece.
