[QUOTE="**Delboy75**, post: 184628, member: 554"] Your spot on Frank, there are definately different fonts and the bolder/rougher print ones do seem to be palitoy. It's a minefield tbh. I think it's just a simple case of when and were they (the baggies) were made. I find the older sw-b baggies that contain figures released during sw & Esb come in the thinner text ' Kenner ' bag, later figures released in the rotj phase tend to come in the thicker text Baggie. Palitoy baggies tend to have the thicker, rough looking text (more bleed) but are so similar to kenner i dont think you will convince everyone. The simple way i collected was this, black txt MIHK Baggies: Thinner text/neat = kenner Thick text/neat = kenner MIHK text but with lots of bleed = palitoy. ^^^ not gonna be 100% right but can be a good help. Ive found the ones i classed as palitoy contained figures that were rotj releases, gam guard and emperor for instance. I have purchased these types direct from palitoy employees too. Good luck Frank, your gonna need it lol. [/QUOTE]
