| I've come to understand that many ledy's look almost identical to kenner and other manufacturers. Though I got this one which I believe look very close. Any help is appreciated. |

| I am not 100% sure and not a lili ledy expert. But the screw looks good to me.

| Subject: R2-D2 with Lili Ledy Stamp ? Sun Jul 31, 2011 7:06 am | |
| One of my R2-D2 Figures have the same stamp as the Lili Ledy stamp from the coo guide. Does that mean the stamp was on Lili Ledy but also maybe Kenner figures ? |

| Probably the suckers usually look just like ledys, I got a R2 with that coo but not the ledy screw also got an r4 with that stamp. |

| I honestly don't know, though what I found out when I sold my ledy R2 was that the sticker and screw also got to be right. To add was that I believe that the Ledy looked like a different plastic. Not sure about this but it had another look when pictured. Might be just me. |

| Hi Lars, COO no. 4 is is shared by Kenner and Lili Ledy. The flat screw is specific for Ledy however. Left: Kenner COO no. 2 Middle: Kenner COO no. 4 Right : Ledy COO no. 4 Left: Kenner COO no. 2 Middle: Kenner COO no. 4 Right : Ledy COO no. 4
BTW: There is also a hard plastic variant of COO no. 4. I think this is COO no. 5 in Wolff''s scheme, as the letters are much sharper. This variant is unique to Ledy. BTW #2: Last night, Horacio (Ozio) disclosed me an unique trait which is only shared by Ledy R2s (apart from the screw). Soon to be communicated in your nearest LL thread. |

| Good spot AJ!!!! Never saw that before. Left: COO 4 (Hong Kong) Soft plastic. Matt silver dome. With blue squares Middle: COO 5 (Hong Kong) Hard plastic. Chrome dome. With blue squares. I think this is the same version as Jase bought from Rawlin. Right: COO 4 (Hong Kong). Soft plastic. Chrome dome. Lacking blue squares So apparentely not only the no COO version (1978 version) has the blue squares. |

| If it turns out it isn't ledy Jason, though you ID it, We can trade back.
If I was an R2D2 I would find this thread full of R2 behinds slightly disturbing. |

Unfortunately Jase's figure isn't a Ledy, please trade it back to Claes...... .....so I can buy it. No worries , that figure is 100% Ledy. |

Jase: Has your R2 the same COO as the hard plastic COO in my pic (middle figure)? |
