| Hey All, I need your opinion! Is this Leia a Glasslite? I think it is, but I want to be sure. Thanks in advance! Pat |

| Hi Pat, nice to see you here on TIG Seems you have the same version as mine that I posted up last year, thanks to James for finding the link I thought I'd struck lucky too, but you can see the differences clearly on the face colour. Nice that there is another COO variation though, even if not an elusive Glasslite. Mine was purchased in the UK. FWIW my Leia has very loose neck and shoulder welding points and probably wouldn't take much to come apart in pieces too. Cheers, Paul |

Cheers, Paul Hey Paul, Nice discovery, our figs do look to be the same, I won mine on eBay from a UK seller. I bought it because the sonic welding failed & never saw the COO until it arrived (double bonus!). |

| Hi Guys,
I have the same one too! I mentioned it the other day because it too isn't welded.
Looks like the same COO.
I've never known what it was or what to do with it. Are they collectable un-welded? Anyone know the story behind the COO scar?
-J
Mine's in pretty nice condition too. Shall I post pics? Or no need? |

| My no coo Leia like that one also has a loose head so it sounds like it is common with that coo. You can find this coo in the uk so i would suggest trilogo cards but you can never be 100% especially as it's impossible to check her coo on any moc. Luke farmboy with china coo incidently, is another figure which also has a loose head joint very often. Regarding Glasslite coo's, many have same/similar coo's to kenner so don't always assume you have a GL by coo alone. You have to go by other differences in the paint/sculpt |

I have 2 non-sonic welded figures & would love to get more, I also buy figures with missing paint apps. Personally, I like the weird stuff & will buy it |
