Z FORCE RADIO OPERATOR FOR TRADE - RARER INNER PACKING

Ok so I have two Z Force Radio Operators, and I want to open one as I want a minty figure.

Anyho...turns out both MOCs I have are a rarer variant which has an inner piece of plastic to hold the figure in place.

See this thread:

viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1280

I would like to trade this for a normal MOC Radio Operator, so I don't feel so bad opening it.

Anyone interested? Card and bubble can be crap, I just want the minty, complete figure.

thanks!

i'm pretty sure for certain figures on the white star card, they only came with the plastic trays.

Looks like the major change of camouflage for the Radio Operator coincided with the introduction of this extra 5th Release inner packing. Will be interesting to see if they also continued to release both camouflage versions into the 6th, if anyone has a picture please (Yellow sticker).
