    I've sold a lot of variants recently, Lili Ledy small mouth Biker Scout and burgundy cape Squidhead, Takara alternate head sculpt C-3PO and wind up R2-D2, light blue Boba Fett, hollow cheek Tuskan, dark brown Rebel Hoth Soldier with metallic blaster, which alone paid for my Drew Tegg cabinet!

    Hey, joey!
    I think dengar is a fading. I've heard about the red bar r-5, and checked mine...no such luck. Typical!
    I posted before about my blue snag, and said it didn't have a toe dent.I had a look out of interest, and it does have a dent!
    Just goes to show what you don't notice. You are probably lucky coming to this from first principle as it were, you are getting the benefit of expert advice from the outset!
    Standing on the shoulders of giants, that we may see all the further!
    Not like us old timers, we had to wing it with what was on the shelves!

    So many thoughts! A while back, I discovered that I had a hollow cheek Tusken in my collection, much to my very pleasant surprise. Also, I learned that the standard Stormtrooper comes in “2 line” and “3 line” variations, referring to how the copyright is printed on the leg. Hoth Leia has a variety of hair colors, kind of like Luke. Bespin Leia comes in a “turtleneck “ version with an unpainted neck. Jawas have a ton of cloth cape variants, including ones with removable hoods. Then there are the “smiling” Lando and the plain lapels Endor Han, of which I’m sure you’re aware. Those are some of my favorites, anyway. Great episode!

  • @andrewnorton5791
    @andrewnorton5791 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Lots of figures have such small/minor change in detail, that I wonder if they classify as true variants - some of them being: Lobot (torso variation), AT-AT Commander (torso variation), Rebel Commander (torso variation), Hoth Luke (torso sculpting details), Cloud Car Pilot (belt buckle variation), Hammerhead (eye pupil location), Death Squad Commander (rank paint variation), Hoth Leia (rank variation), Bousch Leia (Torso details on cross sling), B-wing pilot (dot located on torso), and probably more that I’m forgetting!

    • @thepadawancollectorofficial
      @thepadawancollectorofficial  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yea I agree! There are so many my mind gets flipped around! I do. Classify them into two camps: intended variants and factory variants. So I would classify all the hard/soft sculpts as factory variants and the big/small head Han as an intended variant, for example . So we can probably go down the line and sort all of the Kenner figs into those two camps. The majority would def fall into factory variants for sure. Thanks for offering an excellent comment Andrew. You always have comments that take the conversation further and I really like that!! And that you for watching!

    Not color fades. I’ve had the different Dengar figures since I was a kid and they’ve been different for the last 40 years. same with the Ugnaught. I know we talked about this before but that’s not a color fade. I wish I could show you in person. it’s a completely different fabric on the blue vs purple smock. I have both fabrics. it’s obvious when you have them in hand -but so hard to see on camera or in photos. Best way I can describe it is like t’s like a fuzzy fabric vs a smooth fabric.
    also -one of the really lesser known variants is IG-88 paint in the eyes. Not only can the eyes be orange or red -but also yellow. so keep an eye out for yellow-eyes IG-88!

    Fun topic Joey. I would say at least half of those variants I hadn't heard of to be honest. So that was awesome. I would say the only variant which I thought of which you didn't cover, was the Klaatu variant, one with gray arms and the other with tan arms. Not worthy of a whole episode, but worth noting as it is one of the older recognized variants. As for your general that you got from gilster, you definitely should have that bad boy graded. Hopefully he agrees and You make it happen. And a great pickup on the Uni-Visor snowtrooper too!

    I found the red bar R5-D4 at a toy shop, and picked him up for $14.00. The seller didn't know what he had. Let's not forget the different variations of the Luke Bespin. Not just the hair color, but the first releases of Luke in Bespin Fatigues had a flat face, lightsaber with raised buttons, and no molded painted lightsaber clip on his left hip. Later versions had a more fuller face, left hand mold variation, and a painted molded lightsaber clip with the molded lightsaber on his left leg.

    Hi Joey, I've been collecting for over 25 years and just found out about the short v power droid a few months ago. There are so many variants when you get into the foreign figures; lili ledy, pbp. One of the coolest is the white leg han solo! His legs are mold in white and painted black! You have to check it out. Its not a well known variation. Very happy to have it in my collection. Also check out the "chocolate" rebel hoth soldier and the toxic limb bossk! This are both pbp. It's been fun watching you build your collection.

    Great video Joey. I watch these with my 12 year old son, who loves vintage Star Wars too. Straight after the video, we went to the collection to investigate, and found our 2-1B has the second bolt, and we have both uni and dual visor Snowtroopers. While I know about the more famous variants (hollow tube Sandpeople, red bar R5) I’m really appreciating the level of detail you go to re variants - it adds a whole new dimension to collecting.

    For me, the Ugnaught purple variant is a myth. I had the blue variant since the 80s, then in the late 90s picked up the ‘purple variant’. My figures including the blue smock Ugnaught were then packed away for 20 years in a box, so not seeing any natural light. When sorting through my collection after two decades boxed away, my blue smock had become as purple as the so called ‘purple variant’. So now I have two ‘purple variants’… as a result of colour degradation. Enjoyed the video 👍🏻

    I have an Imperial Commander that I picked up over 20 years, that I always thought was a variant. However after never coming across any info on-line or via conversations with other collectors to confirm the existence of such a variant, I now believe it to be a factory error. The badge on the left side of the chest, rather than red/silver is actually yellow/silver… it’s a nice piece to have 👍🏻

    I own the two (known) variants for IG-88. I prefer the glossy, metallic version.
    It's worth noting that the shiny metallic variant has sharper detailing - and hollow eyes - unlike the softer, dull grey IG-88.
    Looking forward to comparing them to the RETRO COLLECTION version, later in the year (along with Dengar).

    Heya,
    You may want to check out the pelvic variations on the EV-9D9 Figures as well as the waist tonal difference? The embossed necks on the IG-88 Figures as well as the satin and matt black detailing on the Red Snaggletooth HK 1978. Also on the Taiwan Admiral Ackbar, the hip colour applications are different? One matches his tabard, the other does not? This would indicate a leg from another factory?
    Further note, I have two 8D8 Figures, one with the circular detail on both hip joints and the other with just one?
    Also the 21-B Surgeon Droids, I have two with the double bolted left claw feature as exhibited by the matt blue variations and a single feature on the metallic variant.
    Also the Zuckuss Bounty Hunter Droid, one version has a solid grey to dark grey head whilst the other is metallic and blends with the body.
    Last note: with regard to Dengar’s back pack, the red/brown variation is not colour fade as mine as an example was fresh mint off the card. He is a legitimate variant.
    Also I’ll have to dig out my Power Droid out of interest?
    Please do a Princess Leia in Bespin Show featuring Geisha Leia? I can contribute with photographs.
    Best

  • @Realmightyrahiem

    I wouldn't call the mold marks a variant. They're called Ejector Pin marks, and they're caused by standard wear and tear on a mold. That would be like getting excited over someone making your hamburger incorrectly, calling it a 'variant' of your original order. Then again, misprints have always been big money in certain circles. That would be a more accurate description.

    Just a question, was there ever a variant C-3PO that was more silver? At school when I was a kid a wild rumour went round that a boy had a silver C-3PO from the opening sequence. When the blockade runner is attacked, I think the silver C-3PO is just behindC-3PO himself. The rumour was this was ultra rare and worth a fortune. I did see it and it was silver, but I wonder if this was a variant coating and had faded into silver overtime.

    i would mention the green painted Dengar, you didnt even mention it exists. FX7 with 2 different layouts of the heads. endor Han coat with 90 degree ends of collar or sharp triangular end (both non-camouflage collars). leia bousch colour variations (and also faces). ree yees painted arms vs painted hands. much more gold c3p-o vs goldish c3p-o (similar to the removable limbs version). the german YPS snowtrooper is obvious but would have been informative because i do not think everyone is actually aware about this one (I actually do have one!!). there are also Jabba's that have the tail pointing to the right and would make their head away from the pipe of the playset. (i have at least seen five of these the last years on ebay (and yes - i have one). the rest i do not remember and i have too many figures to look through so here you have a start. i found out i DO have an extra nut on my 2-1B, i have the same 8-D8 as you. oh right - i also have a wampa with brown palms and another with black. and there are speederbikes from different origins that does not fit together. i also got a FAT weequay staff once that could not fit into his hand. it REALLY looked legit but it was too thick. my thought it was useless and i sold it further.

    Similar to the hollow tube Tusken Raider there is an IG-88 with hollow tube optical sensors in the sculpt (which I happen to like far better).
    Does anybody know whether this hollow tube IG-88 consistently comes with the matte finish or-on the other hand-with the shiny one ? ?

    • @temazros6112
      @temazros6112 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      To be more accurate: these optical tubes are not deeply hollowed out: it's more kind of a bas relief-against the cone-shaped protrusions of the other version.
