377 posts ago, oops make that 378

any pictures mate of the no coo ?

about the no insignia, I would say there is very big chance it has fallen off the figure

Hey Lars

The insignia has definitely not been applied so may be a factory error..? Picture to follow my friend

How do you know it has not been applied. Is you the only owner and was it not on the figure when you removed it from the moc ?

Some insignia on some death squad commanders fall off very easy. The first time I saw it. Was when I was cleaning one I found in a childhood collection with a beautiful red and blue insignia. I washed it under water and dried it with a dishtowel. I should never have done that, the red and blue insignia was gone after I dried it with that dishtowel. So today I always go around the the insignia when I clean a figure.

I would say it is a tri-logo

I got it years ago and the guy I got it from said he removed from very badly damaged cut card. He stated it had no insignia. Could be lying. ...no matter just wondering tis all...thanks for your help Lars.

Cheers for the link Michael

Your welcome mate I guess he did not tell you what card the removed it from ? :?

No. .. I knew nothing about variant figures back then so I never thought to ask. :roll:

There is 2 different melted coo for that figure. One where 1977 is going up and one where 1977 in going down on the leg.

Which one does CRAZYHAZY have ? and which one do you have ?

Interesting story, maybe frank can confirm the baggie story :?

going down

Here you go ..that's an interesting story indeed

So do you guys have the same no coo ?

Maybe the figure is found on moc and baggie :? I talked to frank. he could not confirm the figure came from a china baggie.

Here is the ones I have 2 different no coo, look at the last 7 in 1977 up and down

One is missing the insignia and one is not. One have brown eyes and eyebrows and one have black.

Interesting. ..mine has brown eyes an eyebrow as does hellhippies and I think we have the the same 1977.

yep going down melted no coo and brown eyes and brows
