A Question about MOC SW Figures

[paul463]

When I've been looking about on the bay I often see SW figures and sometimes AF Figures being refered to as "45 Back" or "12 Back". What does that mean?

[scoobydie]

I think its the amount of characters featured on the back, might be wrong though?

[Andy1672]

the "back" number refers to the amount of figures pictured on the back of the card.

1st series star wars were 12 backs ( they only had 12 figures on the card back)

Thanks lads. Makes sense now.

And I though MOC Shads were expensive.

Thanks Andy,

I vaguely remember the ROTJ card backs from when my brother had them.

He is AFA graded mind - likely added a good $50 to the asking price.

Only released in Italy and Canada apparently. I think i will never complete the Black hole wave 2 figures. That's just silly.

Try a Toltoys carded mint SW 12 back. I haven't seen one since 1977. I'd hate to think what one would go for.

Hells bells! You could buy a car for that! Grading clearly makes a difference........
