I've just seen this auction for a very nice Han Solo pinhead. The figure has been graded by the UKG and has received the very high grade of 90, 90:

Bear in mind that to achieve a grade of 90 for the paint, a figure must effectively be perfect. Well, take a look at Han's right eyebrow and tell me whether you think this deserves a grade of 90 for paint:
I'm not saying the figure isn't in very good condition, because it is. But how the hell does this qualify for a grade of 90 for its paint? Not only is the right eyebrow not perfect, if you look closely there are some micro-rubs on his hair in the usual places too, plus others on his left eyebrow and right collar, as well as slight overspray on his black jacket from his left collar.
If it had been given a grade of 85, I might not have minded, but 90 is just ridiculous.
