[QUOTE="Snaketibe, post: 529253, member: 7379"] I love this set. Sy Snootles and the Rebo Band packed 3 figures, 3 'normal' sized accessories, and one honking great big accessory into one pack, giving you the whole of Jabba's band in one hit. Marvellous! The sculpts were great, the figures could all hold / interact with their accessories in a movie-accurate way... What's not to like? :D I've had a couple of these sets (one loose, one boxed) for decades, however it was only comparatively recently (as in a few years ago) that I learned of the Lili Ledy variants, all of which are clearly different from their Kenner / Palitoy counterparts, as are their accessories. Droopy is moulded in darker plastic and has dark green shorts instead of brown, Sy Snootles is moulded in lighter yellow plastic and has much lighter blue spots, and Max is moulded in darker blue plastic which doesn't fade!... Bonus!... The downside of course is that all of the Lili Ledy variants are highly prone to discolouration / yellowing, to the point that finding ones without yellowing can be quite tough. I've finally managed it, although the blue-background photos below were taken with my previous Droopy which did have a little yellowing down his left side, so I have also included some extra shots from my main figure cabinet which show my replacement un-yellowed (for now at least!) Droopy, plus a bonus Hutt and Kowakian Monkey-Lizard :wink: One last point worth making is that the smaller accessories, rather unusually, can come in both silver and black. I only have the silver mic stands and black flute, but they can also be found moulded in the opposite colours! Anyway, here's mine.
