Leia Hoth Figure COO Reference guide:

So, decided on a third figure to do a little COO guide on. Another figure that has a nice couple of variants. Also some paint application and mould differences. Big thanks to Lars aka Pomse2001 for his help with this one

First appearing on the Empire Strikes Back 41 back card:

A few COO variants available:

Hong Kong:
A number of different leg markings available.
China:
Comes with a raised bar leg marking. Update soon
No COO:
As suggested only has 1980LFL leg markings.

Hong Kong figure variants:

Currently have three Hong Kong COO variants. All three have differing Leg markings..(Discussed further below)

Some small differences in the face paint applications and face moulds. You can also see quite clearly the different chest insignia Sculpts discussed further down. Raised dots (left) and flat (right)..

Different leg markings:

 

[Dublinjeff]

COO 1:
Smaller text for COO. Gap between COO and top of leg. Small gap between two lines on right leg.

COO 2:
Small text COO. Gap between COO and top of leg like COO 1. Larger gap between the two lines in right leg.

COO 3:
Larger Font for text on legs. No gap between the COO and top of right leg.

Tunic Neck Sculpt:

The figure has another major sculpt difference. The figure features either 3 or 4 panels on the top of the tunic, along the neckline. Both variations appear on the Hong Kong figure. No COO figure I have has 4 panels will update with further details as I pick up more variants.
