Going through my Rebel Commanders I saw a Made in Hong Mong figure with a pale yellowish face, and dark brown boots, scarf and glasses.

Rebel Commander Question P100926_113032

Rebel Commander Question P100926_113054

Rebel Commander Question P100926_113148

COO no. 3 (Left), COO no. 1 (Right)
Rebel Commander Question P100926_113419


The figure has COO no. 3 as indicated in Wolff’s scheme.


Anybody has an idea about the origin of this figure? I know it is not a LL (that would have been COO no. 4).

Thx!

The origin of this figure... hm...

I have a vague guess - HONG KONG?

No, jokes aside, you can find very much face colour, beard colour, boots colour variants for the Rebel Commander. If you are going seriously into variants of the RC try to get the three different body moulds first (all 3 exist with Hong Kong coo). After that you can focus on the different colours.

Hong Mong? I clearly can read Hong Kong On his leg.

No i'll be serious, i don't know it's exact origin, but i do have a similar one.

Cheers, Dennis.
