[QUOTE="snaggletooth, post: 337189, member: 2231"] This is s great thread and it's nice to get the history of these figures first hand, I'd heared about these being fake. I'm guessing that there the first batch of these scar COOs that where produced by this particular factory. Sent to Palitoy for them to put them on to there own MOC's, when they started discolouring as fast as they did Palitoy decided not to use them and throw them in a draw somewhere till they got passed on to local toy dealers at a latter date. The factory produced the next batches with more chemicals in the plastic to prevent this discolouring error happening again... Here's the same figure carded but from a latter batch http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/STAR-WARS-ROTJ-PALITOY-HOTH-STORMTROOPER-SINGLE-HOLE-CAPE-MOC-65-BACK-VINTAGE-/291421602822?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item43da14c406 [/QUOTE]
