My 12 Backs Collection - updated pics 19.04.2013

[Mark_Yeo]

Hi guys

Due to Webshots becoming Smile, I have re-located all my pics to Photobucket. This is an update on the run of 12 backs that I currently have – its grown a bit and I have traded off a few pieces for other items.

Thought the limelight of the 12 back run could do with a bit of a revamp as well – for anyone who is thinking of using these pics as a reference.

Here we go …

hey mark
excellent run on the 12 backs so far. you have your hands full with the little variations. i have a hard enough time with just the packaging variations on the 12 back A cards. the piece we talked about last month, i should be getting back in a few weeks and would look great in your collection if you are still interested. keep up the good work.

[Mark_Yeo]

Hi Allen

Of course That piece still interests me. Lets talk about it when you get it back from AFA. Send over some pics when it arrives and we can start discussing it.

Cheers, Mark

It is amazing the collection you have put together over the last year. All your pieces look sweet, so when will you be displaying them? Looks like you only need a couple to have all the varients?

Thanks for sharing.

[Mark_Yeo]

Hi Jeff

Will try to display them soon when I find the time to put together some good shelving. Wished I had the space that you have. I think if I cant do anything close to what you had done display wise, I probably wont really bother.

Its been a labour of love thus far. I think that the sellers that I have dealt with have been very patient with me and very understanding - all of which have contributed to some really good deals for me.

It has been certainly time consuming and tiring actually - with most of the auctions ending at crazy hours over here in Singapore (we are 12 hours ahead) so I actually lose quite a fair bit of sleep getting through all the auctions and emails.

More than a couple of variants missing. Actually, my last count is 21 pieces - which includes the DT Ben and Vader. I think that the remaining pieces are going to take a while

Great run of 12backs, thanks for sharing and please keep us updated.

[MikeParker]

That is one awesome collection Mark!

[Dennis_Vleugels]

That's amazing what your putting togheter here Mark, i just managed to get an 12 back set togheter, you have managed to get most off the cardback variations for every figure aswell.
I love the 12 back D cardbacks. and 3 carded VC jawa's, is just... WOW. I hope i could just add one to my collection in the future, but i know that won't be soon.

Nice limelight and good luck finding the remaining carbacks variations you still need.

cheers, Dennis.
