i was just searching through stuff on google images and looked at this cardback and noticed landos legs.

ive never seen one with completely cream legs?

how rare is he?

does he belong with the uncoloured ree yees hand and orange helmet leia boush family perhaps?
 
Poor Lando's trying to look as cool as Hammerhead.

that's a cool pic I've never noticed the paintless Lando before, if you look you'll notice quite a few of the figures pictured are different from the production figures released to the public. Figures like Squid Head and Bib Fortuna have different coloured capes ( the infamous Red Caped Bib ) and Vader appears to have a discoloured torso. Quite often Prototypes where used in the photo work for the card backs, which would explain Landos legs.

Also wondering where this pic is from and what the yellow and green text over the figures is all about?

Someone with vastly more knowledge will correct me no doubt but I think that's what they are.
 
A few of those pre production figures reside in an RS members collection actually:

I can't actually remember seeing a red caped proto bib or a black caped proto squidhead come up for sale to be honest mate, are you thinking of the Ledy burgundy capes? Those tend to sell for a few hundred yeah but they are just foreign variants (Lili Ledy = company that produced toys in Mexico)

Those figures shown above are all pre production/prototype figures which Kenner used for photography purposes as Ryan mentioned above. I would assume you are looking at probably a $600 minimum for a first shot like that Lando with unpainted legs and then increasing north till you hit (and go over) the $1k barrier for the Squiddy and Bib (Probably more like $2k in this market)
