Love Han Solo. Massively underrated IMO. I actually prefer big head Han. Here's mine.
L-R: Big Head Han: Kenner HK CoO; Euro No CoO; PBP Smooth Deleted No CoO (European market); PBP Smooth Deleted No CoO (Spanish market); Small Head Han: Kenner HK CoO (molded legs); Kenner HK CoO (painted legs)

I don't mind some of the small head Han factory moulds. The one I have on the left looks good but the painted legs one I have his head looks like the dodgy special effects on Arnold Swarzenegger in Terminator when he takes his eye out over the sink. :lol:Snaketibe said:You prefer the big head Han?!TheJabbaWookie said:

You're welcome. 2nd favourite figure behind Yoda.Pomse2001 said:
Better late than never, here are mine!
A childhood favourite, what was not to like about Han Solo?!... Well, the balloon-headed version, if you were me. It took me ages to get a small head one back in 1978/9, and I only managed it eventually by swapping figures with a friend of my brother, as by that point the only version I could find in the shops was the enormous-headed one, which I definitely didn't want! The small head version might have a slightly undersized bonce, but at least it vaguely resembles Harrison Ford. I'm not sure who they modeled the large head version on, as it looks more like Richard Madeley to me. Anyway, it's interesting to think how rare the large head version is these days on a Palitoy 12 back, because back then that's the only carded version I ever saw!
From left to right:
A small head, thin eyebrows, moulded legs. A small head, thin eyebrows, painted legs. A small head, bushy eyebrows, moulded legs. A large head, dark brown hair, moulded legs. A large head, red-brown hair, moulded legs. And although I'm not really bothered by the COOs, I know some others are (Lars ;-)), so I've included those too.

Wow again and army of figures, thanks for sharing them with all the great info
I agree with you about the head. I also like the small head better than the balloon head, I do not remember it from my childhood. I think it was not easy to get in denmark. So I did not have that Han Solo figure when I was a kid
