WTB - G1 boxes / cardbacks / catalogues / instructions

Hey guys,

With the Parra Fair just around the corner, I was wondering if anyone would be willing to assist me in my sick fetish of collecting G1 boxes / cardbacks / catalogues / instructions. Ideally I would like to pick it up on the day however if you are not attending, I would be willing to arrange a separate meet.

I'm targeting anything from 1984 to 1986 (inclusive).

Basically name your price if you're willing to part with your cardboard / paper as long as it's C8 condition or better e.g. not ripped or torn, minimal flap crease (for boxes), nothing cut (tech specs and / or robot points) etc.

Any help would be appreciated :)

*BUMP*

Anyone??? I'm offering cash here people :D

The one that I am most desperate for is G1 Sideswipe.

Got me tempted on letting go of my Sideswipe box...

Can't remember what condition it is in though.

What would it take to convince you ;)

I could think of something, but I don't think your missus would approve ;) :p

I need money, so I can bring it, plus any other to the fair. I'll go home and find out what boxes I feel I can let go and let you know what else I got.

You're an awesome person 1AZRAEL1 :cool: Money you shall have :p

Hey man just noticed your sig!

Transformerland has a number of cardbacks/instructions/boxes you might be keen on

http://www.transformerland.com/store....php?Toytype=4

Many of them have been sitting in his inventory for some time, so I reckon you'll be able to negotiate a pretty good price if you buy in bulk

Good to see I'm not the only one collecting bits of cardboard on the otca forum :p

You have pretty strict criteria for your cardbacks though! Very very difficult to find many with minimal artwork lifted/torn off.

Thanks Whoopy :) I had no idea they sold cardbacks and boxes. You're right though, I am very fussy when it comes to the condition.

There's two left that I would love to own - Tracks and Soundwave. I know Goki has Soundwave but with the specs cut out :( I don't think he'd part with it anyway.

Speaking of cardbacks and boxes, I wonder whatever happened to my man 1AZRAEL1 ;) :p

I'm still around mate lol, just been totally busy with work. All really early am starts, get home and relax lol. I have a few days off coming up, I will endeavor to go through what I got and see what I have to offer.

I might have a couple that you could be interest in dude, but it's likely they're not in a condition you'd prefer or you've already got them. :o
I'll take some photos today or tomorrow and you can let me know your thoughts. ;):)

@Whoopy: I was in talks with Transformerland.com with regards to a whole tone of Beast Wars paperwork they had, both listed and unlisted, but they just stopped communication when I asked how much they were looking for the lot. :confused::(
A pity, as I was willing to spend quite a bit and purchase just as much. :o

Not to hijack the thread, but if 5FDP isn't interested in the spare G1 cardboard you guys have to offer or already has em I might be!

In regards to transformerland suddenly becoming quiet, I've had that before as well. I believe he has a full time job and just runs the tfland store on the side for a bit of extra cash. He also tends to disappear from time to time for reasons unbeknownst to me.

Best way to go about it - just place your order directly on the website and make an offer through there.

No worries my brother from another mother, take your time. I need time to scrap together some gold coins for you in exchange for the cardboard.

Thanks also Hursty :) That would be awesome if you could tell me what you have and are willing to part with.
