These beautiful vehicles came in today so I spent the whole afternoon cleaning them up. The Snowspeeder could well be a Dustspeeder instead (no joke - 30 years of 'vintage'ness = ALOT of dust and muck)
However they do clean up well and the vehicles are beautifully made (Kenner - we applaud you for really awesome figures from the 80s).
Here are some pics of the items that came in.
For collectors: if you're also handy in painting models, these would look incredibly amazing if it got decent paint jobs (perhaps not as they're collectibles). You can get some great paints from Guan Hock Lee in Rimba. They even have the Snow weathering paint for the Snowspeeder if you're keen.
I hate to part with these as I am starting to grow fond of Star Wars vintage vehicles, but collectors come first so let me know if anyone's keen. I only get to keep it until the day they're sold ....
Note: These guys are 30 years old so expect some knocks and dings here and there. For the most part, everything is intact and as mentioned, have been cleaned up well.
1980!!
