Sorry for the late reply. The Canadian version comes in 3 options: the Macau box is a few mm bigger than the Taiwans.

Stranger things have happened, but finding a Spanish Bossk (POCH or PBP) in a collectioin are slim https://swspaceclub.com/wbobafett/poch/ ... nts/bossk/

It is a V2 (rough texture which I suspect due to the increased surface area did not release from the mould well hence the addition of the ejector pin mark, can be found without EPM)

Without 100% confirmation, Taiwan figures usually have 'unique' weapons. So we could 'assume' not all 12 back Chewbacca's have a green bowcaster because Taiwan Chewbacca would buck any trend. I am working on more information.

The lazy fucker can not even bother to take his own pictures. Those are Poontroopers from 7 years ago : https://www.imperialgunnery.com/reproductionfigures.htm

If you get rid of the outside trim, it might fit into a case. That's what I was thinking of looking at although there's not much material to play with as the front and back of the Top Loader may well separate if I start cutting into the edge of it. I'll take a look though but they will display fine...

"A" "B" & "C" found in Hong Kong produced (no CoO) hoods & Ledy.
