My childhood Chief Chirpa (and a pencil topper).
I have attempted a restore with it's original staff, card and bubble, and the help of a toploader.

Nice chief chirpa items you have from your childhood :wink: your palitoy card and bubble looks great when they are put together 8)

Thanks. I always liked it that he was blacked out on this card back; it gave the ewok figures a bit of mystique. I regret cutting out this name plate though. Also, the staff was originally taped to the bubble but the tape has now yellowed and is not reusable.

I totally understand that you regret cutting out the name plate, I would also regret it if it was me. Maybe you can replace the plate from a cut card or damaged card You can always glue the tape back on the bubble :wink:

My philosophy on these figures is to reassemble without modification, gluing or additional parts. There's something about knowing that all the bits were from the same original set.

Oh ok, I understand :wink: I once fixed my childhood Y-Wing after my little brother damaged it. I took some parts from another Y-Wing that I bought on ebay. I even found a box for it and I put a little note in the box where I wrote which parts I have replaced if I forgot :lol:

Here's my loose 2; one white, one grey. I've photographed them side by side so anyone unfamiliar with the colour and accessory differences can see them:

Pointed Staff, but what's the difference between the hoods?

The Hood on the white one is darker and if you take the hood of the ewok then you can see a circle in the bottom of the hood :wink:

But there is a light and also a dark hood with circle in the hood and then there is 3 different types of circles and then again there is hoods with letters in the hood so there is many hood variants for chief chirpa :lol:
