Hi there, I've just had a See Threepio non-removable limbs delivered from eBay. But on inspection it seems to be the same shape, sculpt and stance as the removable limbs one - of course however the limbs are secure? It has a 1977 leg stamp and also a metal pin in the back, but see the picture...

Just a quick update to thank you all for your kind words and help. Whilst I've learnt a lot more about it still nothing is concrete. I've had an awful lot of interest from Mexican Lili Ledy collectors and a few offers but I'm probably going to hold on to it for now in the hope that some more...
