[QUOTE="Snaketibe, post: 476849, member: 7379"] Well then it looks like I was quite wrong and these are real Kenner prototypes after all. My apologies for my scepticism and especially for doubting the clearly excellent memory of Mini99! :-) If these were indeed sculpted by a Kenner employee, and especially if done so 'unofficially', perhaps that explains why they aren't more well-known. It would certainly explain why they aren't more polished. And if they were made with the Cantina set in mind (i.e. circa 1978/9), perhaps that also explains why they were kit-bashed from original figures rather than new sculpts, and also why Pin-Head Han was used rather than Balloon head. This is a perfect example of why I love this hobby! There's always something new to learn :-D ...Now if you'll excuse me, I must retrieve that three pound note from Donald's Trump's wig before he rides off with it on that unicorn :lol: [/QUOTE]
