UPDATED: Imperial Commander figure, COO reference guide.

[Dublinjeff]

Thanks Lars....Appreciate the feedback :wink:

Some more updates soon.
Going to do an updated guide to the Chest emblem on the figures as I believe that there maybe 4 different variants not 3 as I had seen/read.

Should have a China figure update soon

Hong Kong figure pictures:

Just a couple of shots of the three Hong Kong COO figures I've put together.

Chest Insignia/emblem sculpt:
Picture of the different chest sculpts on the five figures. I will be doing a more in depth post on this feature soon as I reckon that there is 4 sculpts available as opposed to 3 that I had seen/read about before.

SSL LFL Hong Kong update:

On closer inspection I have noticed a small design/sculpt feature that only appears on the two Small, Single line LFL Hong Kong Figures. There is a definite neck line mould distinguishable on this COO figure.

At first I thought it might be a feature common to the 'Skinny' head figure, however it doesn't appear on the No COO 'Skinny' figure.
Pictures below show the feature close up.

SSL LFL Figures:
Here is a shot of the two SSL LFL Figures alongside the Pale face Large LFL Hong Kong figure( in middle)

Feature is also noticeable to the front. SSL LFL Figure alongside No COO "Fat" head figure.

Not a "Skinny" head feature as this picture shows. SSL LFL Figure on right alongside Pale face and No COO "Skinny head" variants.

Accessories:

Imperial Commander figure came with standard Stormtroopers blaster

Wow some fantastic updates, this thread is going fast :shock:

 

[Dublinjeff]

Made in China figure:

Picked up this China figure today. Thanks to itfciain for all his help securing it It's very distinctive as it has No COO or LFL markings on it. Quite a difficult figure to pick up. I was delighted to have picked up the ROTJ China cardback to give some providence to the figure.

 

[Dublinjeff]

Close up of legs show the distinctive lack of any markings...

ROTJ 77back Card:

Chest Insignia Sculpt:
New sculpt to add to the collection. I will update the guide later with a picture of all chest insignia sculpts.

Large dots on chest, single line pocket with a Round Top pen.

 

[Dublinjeff]

Large, Single line LFL, Hong Kong COO figures:

Also picked up two more Hong Kong figure variants. Both are Large COO stamp, Hong Kong figures. One has a noticeable gap between the two lines of text on the COO. Absolutely mint examples

This picture shows the different COO texts. Noticeable gap between the two lines on the second figure

 

[Dublinjeff]

One of the new figures has similar leg markings to a figure I already documented. However, there are a number of different characteristics between the two figures.
Both are Large, Single line LFL figures (LSL LFL)

The first difference between the two figures is the Hair Colours. One has Dark brown long hair, the other has short Red/Brown hair, quite noticeable in this shot:

 

[Dublinjeff]

Both figures come with similar chest insignia Sculpts, single line pocket, square pen.

Another difference is the figures stance. New figure has a narrow stance as opposed to a wider stance on the previous figure

Finally, the newer version has a 'smooth' body mould compared to a much 'Rougher' mould on the other,

Jeff I can see you do not have this coo in the guide so here is a little help :wink:

I found this 3 hair colors with this coo :wink:

 

[Dublinjeff]

Excellent Lars, It's the one COO variant I needed to add..

I will be doing an updated Chest Insignia Sculpt post and a Full COO variants post later.

Thanks again for all your advice and help.

 

[Dublinjeff]

Big thanks to Lars aka Pomse2001 for his input and help with this. Hopefully this is a useful quick reference guide to the most common Imperial Commander COO variants.

Hi Jeff, fantastic update about the china figure. I looked through mine and I have 4 of them.

But to my big surprise they look not 100% the same. I have 2 of both.

The bottom picture, there is some parts of letters still on the right leg.

The top picture is nothing.

 

[Pomse2001]

Great coo update Jeff :wink:

 

[Dublinjeff]

Super addition Lars

 

[Pomse2001]

Jeff I found 2 more figures with 2 no coo that is not in the guide I do not know if we can call them PBP or just european :?

 

[Dublinjeff]

Fantastic update Lars. Are they similar to #7 in the guide. It's hard to make out? Great examples of Scarred out markings 8) I would reckon that they are referred to as 'European variants'....?

Comparison shot with #7....although they both look different in fairness!

Thanks, did a little mistake with the gun and childhood, wrong figure. The figure I found in a danish childhood with a blaster is the same as you have I think ?

The one to the right could look like it :? Euro variants is maybe correct, I have heard they are also called PBP, but a lot of figures is called PBP at the moment.

Here is the one I found in the childhood I talked about, the same as you have ?

 

[Pomse2001]

Jeff, why have you add the others no coo that is missing in your coo guide ?

Could you not use the pictures ?

 

[Dublinjeff]

Hey Lars

I just wanted to put together the basic COO's.....I can try and update it bout I think I deleted my photos :?

Oh I thought you would add all coo and no coo. Could be cool if you did

 

[Dublinjeff]

No COO figure COO update soon

 

[Dublinjeff]

No COO comparison shot:

Thanks to Lars for his additional 'No COO' pictures. There appears to be a number of No COO markings available. Some completely Scarred out, some with COO slightly visible and others with a 'melted' COO.

From L-R: Melted, Visible COO, Scarred, Melted.

 

[indianawars]

Most interesting! You learn something new everyday.

 

[Pomse2001]

Great update Jeff, But I think mine to the right is the same as yours to the left

My picture is just very dark, sorry about that :lol:

 

[Dublinjeff]

Came across this picture of a very nice, minty loose example I used to own...
