The best variant guide I've seen so far is from Lee's Toy Review magazine. They had an insert guide on AOTC a while back and they covered most of them and with photos. Those they did not have in there, I sent them pictures of and I hope they update it in the future.

Hasbro and/or Star Wars.com (Lucasfilms) won't even acknowledge variants or errors other than what I read early on from Hasbro in a Toy Fare. They did not exactly say the variants were important, they basically explained why they had chosen to make the changes they did.

I still think the catalogue of these variants and/or known erros should come from the source. I'm sure they could do it, it's just motivating the powers that be to do it.

I am a Chewbacca collector. All things Chewbacca are considered. I have mostly modern carded (back to red card potf2) and some loose vintage stuff. He's just always been the favorite. His loyalty, his courage and that a character with a non-speaking role (language we understand) can be so dramatic and powerful without words. Plus, he just has great figures... Ever since 'A New Hope' he's just been my favorite.

My experience with Makillops was equally positive and pleasant. He is an honorable trader, good with communication and delivers exactly what he says and in the condition he promises. I recommend trading with him to anyone and hope to have future experiences with him. Thanks Criag and I'll be in touch!

As far as I know, Hasbro has basically deleted the serial number as a way to distinguish a change or variant. No idea why, especially with the amount of variants in the AOTC/Saga line so far. Maybe they just decided to cut it out of the production process. It probably costs quite a bit to print new cards for a serial number change and didn't make sense. Stickering them would create some 'fakes' and they do not want that at all. I've been told that Hasbro does not acknowledge or document the variants and/or changes for public knowledge, so there's no telling and would be difficult to find out. They obviously either have a lot of mistakes and/or do not think things through and/or are consciously creating all these to pump up sales and create a demand for buying more than 1 of a specific figure (outside of army building figs). I'll do some research on it and respond with what I find soon.

first of all Cberry,
leave your figures carded!!!

second, my Teebo has a total of '0' foot peg holes too. I thought I would find some totally strange difference in the peg hole they hang cards on peg holders with...

so, no idea.

Third, since you opened Teebo, just take a nice power drill and gouge those necessary holes in there!!!

no, really, it is pretty interesting. Wonder if it's the same for the Saga Teebo?

This is what we have on our checklists...

I am currently working to revise these, but I think we have a pretty extensive and thorough list...

Discuss, ask questions or tell us about your favorite or maybe unique variants and errors from the POTF2 line of figures.

The obvious being the Boba Fett figure from Green and Red card releases. So many different errors and variants. I have 3 carded Fetts and they are all the full circle and no other error figures. I have heard of and documented so many different variants and errors on this figure and feel like this is the mother of all in this line of figures. I hope to find one or two and own them in my lifetime and wonder how many people have 1 or more of these in their collection?

If you have a question, comment or a rare error or variant figure you'd like to discuss from the vintage era of Kenner figures, this is the place! I try and pride myself on being a bit of an expert in this field and am interested in what you all have to say or ask me.

First topic is the Han Solo head variants/sculpts. There is so much conflicting information as to which headis more rare and which head actually looks better. If you ask me, my information tells me the small head is the more rare version and they should have gone somewhere in between. He either looks like he's anorexic or has been through an Ewok head shrinking ritual. Any thoughts or comments?
