How to tell the difference between a vintage and repro. weapon

<< < (15/17) > >>

john todd:
the re-releases have a 1996 stamp on the back leg.  they are also a little smaller, but that doesn't help unless have one of each to compare.

Rob:
Oh, well that's easy then.  I thought they used the same molds exactly and the 1977 was still stamped on the new ones.

Thanks.

CookieeMonster:
Nope I have a Small Headed Han Solo from 1996 and he has it stamped on his leg, still looks cool and will do me, but it is a Repro figure.

Wow, now that's digging up the past Cookie.   ;)

http://www.imperialgunnery.com/ is a useful repro guide. There is a new batch of reproduction weapons out of the Netherlands that are top 'quality'. The fake Yoda snake & Amanaman staff float unlike the vintage ones that sink. ( most real weapons float just to confuse the isssue )
