Yes, definitely two. As I say below, If you're really avid you need to collect more than just two PBP lol...
Regarding the cape, The inside of the PBP cape is a light white, whilst the outside appears slightly rougher, or perhaps better said, more textured compared to the kenner example...
Thanks. Appreciate the nod.
The Meccano Luke hoth is beautiful enough with his vibrant pink face, but when you add in not one, but two paint application errors, Then he really stands out from the crowd. Great variant!

You can buy most of that in private sales in the local sale listings, you can buy some/all of it from the forums over time, or you can certainly source it all via online auction sites with no difficulty.
good luck
Talk us through the loose Yaks on the display stand.
I notice the two Proto's that sold recently are in your collection now, bottom left on the stand, Best home for them, but what about the others, whats the craic?

Much like Simon, I'm not adverse to buying figures knowing they will need upgrading.
As a loose Coo Variant collector, My priority is having an example of the figures I want in any condition. I then systematically upgrade them if I have the time, money, availability to do so.
Ideally...
At first glance it looks like you have approx £250, maybe £300 worth of vintage items (3.5" loose figures, a couple ships and Jabba playset)
I'm not entirely sure of the value of the 12" figures, so someone else will probably comment on the value of those.
The rest of the collection looks to...
I wish I could 'unsee' half the sales posts I do get shown by facebook. Some of the sellers are impossible to deal with anyway. They think every beater is a variant, and every part of a broken vehicle is worth close to the value of the vehicle whole. I'm losing the will.
:roll:
Thanks.
That's totally the idea of the guide; to introduce as many variants of the same figure as possible to mainly newer collectors, So people can be informed as to what is out there and what they might choose to collect. Its important to have some sort of focus as a collector as to what...
I have no doubt they would sell lol
Someone would probably weigh in saying they have a couple of those variant staffs too to legitamise the whole charade lol
Yeah, The PBP Iggys need far more love. They look cool, They feel cool, They smell cool, They are cool!
IG-88, A figure you just can't own one of!
One of the hardest, Yes, But Ackbar, grrrrrrrr, Gulp, not looking forward to that one :P

Top row, Family I No Coo (a), Family I No Coo (b)
Bottom row, Family III No Coo (a), Family III No Coo (b)
Sidenote : Coo II family does not have a No Coo variant.
The Family III No Coo figures are PBP produced. They use the solid eyes head mould on the right...
Must have been my lucky day!!
I was walking through my local park earlier and to my surprise I find someone has accidentally dropped 7, Yes seven!! Paploo staffs
They all look to be different variants, which has me puzzled, which is rarer, which is most expensive?
Gutted I just sold seven...
Well the two main points would be 'Solid tubes' & 'NO COO', of which there are two different alignments, Both exclusive to PBP produced IG88. Other noticables are excess EPM marks on the back of the elbows/heels & bubbles in the plastic.
