Fett variation

[SublevelStudios]

Just landed this sucker:

More than I wanted to pay, but it will look cool in my Fett focus. Never seen one with that shade of yellow on the armour - anyone out there have any more info on this variation or actually own one?

Cheers

Gut feeling is that it is just discolouration - but the variant/focus collectors can confirm if this is common for this COO

If it is discolouration, the yellow has all gone at the same rate, and evenly, and no other parts have been affected. Obviously it's too soon to tell because I haven't got it yet but my hunch was it looked like a different yellow paint, much more yellow than the original orangey colour.

Looks like a similar one on eBay at the minute

This might be of interest - suggests discolouration as well

Thanks Ian, I think that's cleared that up! Great article.

Okay, this guy has this re-listed after I sent it back (and got a full refund to be fair) but he's still selling it as a colour variation and not the discolouration it actually is.
