Pictured: One from the Tesco bargain bucket - A plastic figure of the bounty hunter Boba Fett made by Palitoy that still has its £1.39 price label on sold for a hammer price of £2,000. With fees added on the buyer paid £2,500.
A canny collector who bought dozens of Star Wars toys for as little as 49p from a Tescos 'bargain bin' 40 years ago has sold them for almost £50,000.
The anonymous shopper scooped up as many of the discounted plastic toy figures as possible from a trip to the supermarket in the 1980s.
They have remained sealed in their cardboard cases since then and have shot up massively in value.
