[QUOTE="Snaketibe, post: 504701, member: 7379"] Better late than never, here are mine! :-) A childhood favourite, what was not to like about Han Solo?!... Well, the balloon-headed version, if you were me. It took me ages to get a small head one back in 1978/9, and I only managed it eventually by swapping figures with a friend of my brother, as by that point the only version I could find in the shops was the enormous-headed one, which I definitely didn't want! The small head version might have a slightly undersized bonce, but at least it vaguely resembles Harrison Ford. I'm not sure who they modeled the large head version on, as it looks more like Richard Madeley to me. Anyway, it's interesting to think how rare the large head version is these days on a Palitoy 12 back, because back then that's the only carded version I ever saw! From left to right: A small head, thin eyebrows, moulded legs. A small head, thin eyebrows, painted legs. A small head, bushy eyebrows, moulded legs. A large head, dark brown hair, moulded legs. A large head, red-brown hair, moulded legs. And although I'm not really bothered by the COOs, I know some others are (Lars ;-)), so I've included those too.
