Han Solo painted neck?

fuzzybuzzytoys · Apr 1, 2015

Got this is a figure lot today. He is in lovely condition with zero paint loss on his hands but his neck seems a bit unusual. Looks like it's been painted?? Can anyone shed some light on whether this is a touch up or factory paint job??

Hi!

My name is Eugene. I have the Exact Figure from my Childhood. I can confirm that his neck is painted. But yours looks as though it's been retouched some how? Mine is in mint condition as it was never played with! I can send you a picture to confirm if you like?

looks like a large head han has had his head swapped for the pin head. just a thought

Yeah I think these look a bit weird because the head is flesh coloured plastic and the torso isn't so the neck is painted and the colour is different, the neck's a bit darker. Yours looks the same as mine colour wise, hard to tell if it's been repainted but the colour looks right to me :wink:

Please LMK if you're parting with it as it's one figure in the loose run I really do need an upgrade for

Never seen or noticed this Han before, nice to learn something like this.

Why this forum is what it is.

Hi!

Eugene here! The Original 1978-(1977) Han Solo has a Skin Coloured Plastic Head with mid to light brown hair. His neck is flesh coloured paint over black plastic. His Legs, however, are white plastic painted black! If I remember correctly a kid who had the same 'Figure' the legs on that one was moulded in Black Plastic! But Everything Else was the same. I guess it is another Variant? I have three Princess Leia's in Hoth Outfit that are Completely Different! Actually it might be Four? It's the same with my Hoth Rebel Troopers and Jedi Rebel Commando's! The F-X7 Medical Droid Frustrated Me as his Arm is Bent and can't be straightened! I later bought one with one that was perfect. A later Variant like my 21-B's. The Metallic Variant was bought for me when I was in Hospital as a kid. But I was shrud enough to notice the Difference and not say that I had one already! Anyways Here's Han!
