Vintage Kenner / Re: Latest vintage acquisition
« on: July 12, 2010, 02:44 PM »
Long time lurker here. Completed a "block buster" boxed vintage trade for me:
Traded 14 carded vintage figures in rather poor to average condition ( 6 POTF, 8 ROTJ) ranging from C2-6 with open bubbles, cracked bubbles, yellow bubbles, dark bubbles, creased cards, etc plus a loose C-5 blue snaggle.
I received a C8+ unsealed boxed vintage 12" Han complete with blaster and medal, and never removed from backer card, with box flap not folded, and likewise similar condition boxed beautiful white with no yellowing electronic working R2-D2 with box flap folded.
Admittedly, my MOC OCD got the best of me on this one and while my poor-average condition 3" vintage carded collection took a huge hit, my 12" C8+ vintage boxed collection doubled! lol To me, in all areas of my carded collection, vintage and modern, condition matters, so these beaten vintage carded figures were just biding time waiting for me to pull the trigger on this trade! Sorry, no camera and no pics.
