Green limb Wicket??

[jambobbyb]

Afternoon all, I have been sorting through and baggie changing my old collection of figures and have discovered my wickets arms and legs have gone exactly the same colour as my "green limbed Chewie" anyone else noticed this happening?

 

[itfciain]

Yes, I've had a few of them before - think it is normally the Taiwan version

This one shows as no COO just has L.F.L 1984 on his back is that the Taiwanese version? It does make you wonder what these things are going to look like in another 20-30 years time 10 years ago he was minty Another one to replace!

Maybe it is the No COO version I am thinking about then - I know one of the two main variants has a tendency to have green limbs

Well the No COO Wicket can firmly be added to that list of mega rare variants DT Vader Viny Jawa…And the dodgy batch of plastic NO COO green limbed Wicket... AFA time for this little chap :lol:

Pretty sure its plastic degradation over time. I've had carded examples that have had green speckled limbs. Looks a bit like mold.

Just checked mine & its deffo the No COO one that goes green as mine has to

Here is a snap of the pair of them deffo a non COO on both these examples, Might be worth considering for anyone worried about the long term collectability of the items there buying Wicket is green front and rear but Chewie is green only to the front!
