[QUOTE="Calrissian_Charm, post: 463958, member: 9687"] I'd say first that I'm not an expert, but I can give my opinion and tell you what I know. I have two Leias with "no zip" capes. The first is the Taiwan, which is well documented. The other is a Hong Kong COO. It's in the pictures I posted. I believe it to be authentic mainly because of the discoloration on the back. It's slightly but noticeably yellow as if from sun or simply age, like a couple other Leia capes I have that do have the crosshatch pattern. I also trust the seller who said he was selling his Early Bird set from when he was a kid. He had already sold the Luke, and so I bought the Artoo, Chewbacca, and Leia. The Artoo was the dark blue variation, and Chewbacca came with the infamous green bowcaster. Not conclusive, but a point in a good direction. I'd also note the fact that both Vader and Ben also come with "zip" and "no zip" capes. Now, I do have a Hong Kong Leia with a zipping cape, but the COO is smaller and higher on her leg. She also has black hair/belt. I got this after the pics I posted. To compare, the "no zip" HK Leia has brown hair/belt. I hope that info helps. [/QUOTE]
