12-back Kenobi Genuine or Reseal?

Hiya gang,
Recent purchase of a 12-back Kenobi MOMC as advertised, just received him this morning and i have my doubts on whether or not he has been resealed in the past as their maybe signs of bubble movement. In some parts of the bubble the cross-hatching glue is visible but around the card away from the bubble there is also cross-hatching and looks like it the bubble has moved or slipped resulting in left over glue. Can you guys please have a look and let me know what you think before i go back to the seller (in this case is tlkrs6, previously robsolo30)

heres some photos:












Thanks lads :lol:

is it possible it's a factory error, and there were two attempts at putting on the bubble?

Can you see any tearing or uneveness of the picture underneath the bubble seal?

i'd hazard a guess that it's genuine mate, i've got figures with really weird/badly put on bubbles.

Hmm i cannot see any uneveness or tearing of the picture beneath the bubble seal but there is a strange square clear plastic part behind Kenobi which i have tried to show up on the following picture, does anyone know what this is?

Thank you all for your help and comments, i wasn't sure if this is genuine or not.

no idea what that plastic is mate but in the last photo the bubble looks very rough cut around the edges?

i've got the same thing on a Palitoy ESB Han - it's fine, don't know why its there though :?:

they put those plastic squares in the bubble behing all figures with capes to stop them sticking to the card. you also find them in other figures with easily rubbed off paint, such as boba fett and dengar.

Ah i see :shock: so this is ok then and not recarded...phew, thought i'd almost been done again!

yes mate im pretty sure its genuine. even my tri logo leia has that plastic behind the cape! i guess with most of the older figures with tighter bubbles you cant see it unless it's been put in wonky.

Pretty much as soon as i saw that bit of plastic, I was fairly sure that's a sealed figure.

Thanks all once again for you help!!

No problem.

Glad it turned out ok. 8)

If you need any other 12/20/21 backs, let me know.

I'm selling up my Kenner star wars collection.

of course i need some more 12, 20 & 21-backs....

i need the Stormtrooper, Solo (large head), Chewbacca, Death Star Droid, Power Droid and Greedo!!!

Always on the lookout for thee to complete my SW collection :lol:

A 12 back Han large head is going to cost you at least Ã'£500 for an AFA 80 so expect to pay big money when one appears, unless Gary still has a spare ungraded one as I seem to remember he had 2 or 3 a while ago !! :lol: 8)

The two I had were palitoy ones.

The only kenner han I have is a small head.

I definitely have some of the ones you listed left, Jukesy When I sort my collection room out, I'll dig them out.

would agree with the others , i had 1 like it , i think its fine jukesy

Thanks all, puts my mind at rest..i can now leave positive feedback for the seller!
