PostSubject: 8D8 Focus group shot   Fri Nov 20, 2009 8:18 pm

I have a small 8D8 focus collection and have been collecting on and off for the last 2 years, well, its evolved slightly (actually drastically) in the last few months with some of these items pictured leaving and some new ones arriving, a new display picture is much needed but for now this was my focus earlier in the year.

The mailers are all complete now with all correct bagged figures and the Kenner US + CDN Carded run is also complete.

Stay tuned for updates, but not just yet !

Yes I still have him Michael, thanks again !

I tried to upgrade it very early this year to a clear bubble but I lost out to another collector (I gave up really Wink )

I have mostly the expensive items left to find , I have been lucky to find some awesome pre production items thanks to a few friends and connected contacts!

The one that still eludes me right now is the Lili Ledy MOC (but I was very close recently)

Thanks for the comment !

LOL trust me, even I hadn't realised exactly what there was out there for this little guy, I still have 3 different trilogo variations left to find!

I guess the big production piece is of course the Ledy, then its all expensive .. lol

Luckily, there is a tonne of pre production items out there to hunt down/wait for!

Yes the variations are low for loose figures, so I am happy lol!

(I got lucky, all the hip circles etc I have all combinations in baggies, so it seemed silly to also buy them loose!)

Luckily, the trilogo variations are quite easy to identify and are country specific, by the end of it I should have a trilogo from at least 5 DIFFERENT countries!

Again another amazing ROTJ Figure Focus Joe!

Anyone thinking of doing a ROTJ Figure Focus but is worried about what is out there or how much can be achieved just needs to check out Joes and Chris' awesome collections.

Its been a real treat to follow your hunt / quest over the last year and see you get some awesome items Joe!

Why doesnt AFA acknowledge the 8D8 Leg/hip variants. Some have circles on both hips, some with a circle only on one leg???????? I have some mint loose ones with all three combos but dont want to send them in to get graded!!!!

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

Yet they acknowledge the Green Limbs chewbacca, which pretty much has been denied by collectors as a true variant and only fading/discoloration in the limbs due to different type of plastic.
