Ah yes, that's the authentic one - bit pricey for me :wink: so think I'll look for a Kenner version.

I don't think the red dot is an absolute tell. In this case the sticker, bubble condition and clear plastic bag on chewbaccas black sack are indicators it is genuine shop sold. I've also seen a pic of one in Toni's cabinet a snoopers paradise that had no red dot and what looks like a repro bubble. So there are a few exceptions to the red dot=toni rule.

All logoed palitoys up to 45a were made and assembled in Hong Kong so toni couldn't get his mitts on the unused cards.

Has anyone noticed this 45 back Boba and whether it is a Toni? Ebay Item no. 141379740367

It seems to have a deep bubble and shorter distance between the stems?
