Help Needed

Hi Guy & Gals, I've just received a nice mint loose Yoda complete and have a question about his walking stick to see if its a repro or original.

The walking stick i've received is molded plastic, Not painted (So that was ok)

But on trying the float test.....it sank like a rock :?

Its quite flexable....actually feels quite rubbery......

Can somebody do a float test on Yoda's stick for me to see if its meant to float or sink?

Much appreciated guy :wink:

All Yoda canes sink with the water test

I have never seen a repro cane that was not painted.

there are molded repro yoda canes out there, these useally lost some detail. Why don't you post a clear pic/scan off both sides off the cane and you find the answer here.

Looks fine to me all my light brown canes are like that and if not i must have loads of repro orange snake Yoda canes lol . Most of my dark Brown canes have the mold circle on the top reverse side. I'm not sure but its possible European canes and Ledy canes have a circle and not Kenner but ask Coco he seems to be the Yoda guru on here

I'm obsessed with keeping repro's out of my collection :wink:

Yes repro's suck i don't see why anyone would need to buy them :? , you can get a nice complete and original Yoda from a good seller on eBay for under £22.
I also have many Yoda figures that are not complete but would prefer them without than to put repro rubbish with them.
