Luke Farmboy Question

[Captainsolo1978]

Sadly one of my favorite Carded figures has turned out to be a Toni.

It's a 45 back Nien Numb offer Palitoy ROTJ Luke Farmboy.

What interests me now is the figure. The figure is perfect but has brown eyes and yellow hair. The saber is a lighter yellow and is flat where the tip meets the thicker part of the blade.

I read Dublin Jeff' s excellent guide. Is this an early release figure?

My Luke from childhood has black eyes, yellow hair and came on the same cardback.

I don't think the early figure belongs on this card.

Thanks

It sounds like a 3 line Hong Kong figure alright. Especially if it has Brown eyes. The lighter saber may also be lettered as tends to be my experience. As regards to whether the figure was released on the card, im really not sure...I don't know about that. Hopefully someone will be able to confirm.

Thanks for your kind words about the guide. Pm on the way

Thanks again! Yes looked at the figure. It does say Hong Kong on his leg!

Willing to part now that you know he's a TT? :mrgreen:

I do because I bought it from him around 10 years ago along with a 45 bk C3PO and two German Han Solos.

He isn't for sale but I was mostly interested in the figure as he is mint and I think he is an early release.

When the scandal broke I wad pretty gutted as I thought I had a genuine mint Luke.

Lol I misinterpreted the Gent's comment.

I thought he meant "Willing to part know you know he's a TT" meant that "willing to admit you know hes a TT".

My bad but sorry I'm going to keep him....
