Very disappointing. I imagine many buyers have paid 'that premium' thinking they are buying from a trusted seller and it turns out maybe they're being duped into buying fakes? So very sad if it turns out this seller has been defrauding folk for years. I think we need to start a new sticky...

Do you have a reference photo of which catalog this is? Might be able to help...

Any figure remotely expensive or more prone to damage I would always advocate sending boxed with lots of padding. That is certainly how I would want any desirable item I buy to arrive. That said, any standard figure can be send wrapped in kitchen towel and a padded jiffy bag in my opinion...

Good strategy. 5 minutes research before buying any piece will save you a fortune in the long run.

Simply not true. i know many more experienced collectors who would only too happily help newbies learn and expand their knowledge. One of the first things I did on a SW FB page was try and help a guy who was limelighting a 'meccano' fett he bought which was just a taiwan CoO fett that had been...

It would only cause 'false' offense to the handful of first year students who believed they were as informed as the seniors who began their education in the very same field of expertise many years earlier. As long as newer collectors approach the subject with open ears and a willingness to...

I disagree here. I can search forums and find information from decades back, but FB posts get deleted, edited and removed at will, and once those comments are gone, they're gone forever. FB will NEVER be a reliable resource for learning because it only shows you what it thinks you might want to...

What is it you 'do right' exactly to accept credit? Press the blue button that says 'accept request'? FB will always be a fantastic platform for bringing people together and it is real easy to start a group and find likeminded individuals. There is certainly a niche market there and it suits...

Poor old weird stance BBSG lol, No love :)

"still crazy after all these years", Crazy how good this is! Awesome update, Great work, As always! Neil

Dengar - great variants available with this figure, and the sculpt/colour is very individual Greedo - soft spot for any cantina alien Luke X-wing - Again, a lovely sculpt that has prompted Hasbro to bring out about 100 other x-wing pilots, So obviously a cool original inspired sculpt

Hammerhead - love this figure, great sculpt! WBSG - I like this figure a lot too, Great Tache! Leia Organa - drawn to the individual accessories of cape and blaster! cool figure

Last day of 2016, and 12 different figures and their variants explored, Seems like a good point for a photo update of what has been covered thus far in this thread. Click on the links at the bottom to discover more in depth the CoO variants of your figure of choice...

Don't discount The Ackbar, Great figure, Great sculpt, Everlasting, and lets not forget good old Eric Bauersfeld :)

Not one complete figure. I have to concur with the above valuation if sold as a joblot, somewhere 50-75 IMO

Mine are almost unchanged from last year, as I achieved only one out of three! 1) Expand my COO variant thread with new figures and update old ones! I managed to achieve some solid updates 2016, and if I can achieve the same level of activity on it in 2017 I'll be very satisfied. 2) Try harder...

a worn mould is the most likely scenario which would produce a very faint virtually nonexistent coo stamp which as has been said above is pretty common with this particular figure. Clearer pic needed though really to confirm.

@ StarWarsFan, You could doing with adding a much clearer photo of the CoO to this thread so it can be judged easily, as its a bit blurry. Peace

No, very unlikely. short pours generally lead to a deformed end of a limb, as that is where the void would be. Would be very hard to pour in the molten plastic and have none of it touch the CoO markings but produce a perfect figure
