| There are members here with experience of Toltoys figures. If you can post some pics of yours, I'm sure someone will be able to advise you. |

| Yeah get some pics up. The only notable different one should be the jawa.
I can help you, if you can get some pictures up. |

What do I do? Thanks It's probably because you are still a "new" member. If you want, email them to one of the mods, and we'll get them posted for you. Or you can email them to admin at imperialgunneryforum.com |

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS TOLTOYS LOOSE FIGURES.
Australia did not make any figures, specific batches of figures made outside of Australia may have been exclusively released in Australia. TT VC Jawa, 'aussie' orange haired Luke & 'Taiwan' Vader.

| Patience my friend. Perhaps I shouldn't have SHOUTED. But certainly no need to shout at John Toltoys figures, MOCs & cardbacks etc. are certainly something close to my heart. Rest assured I have probably a 100+ figures purchased in Australia. I'll share info in regards to figures freely. I'll be out for most of the day & I'll see how this thread develops latter. Have you read the thread Shawn linked to? Have you heard of any Canadian loose figures? |

| Close up pictures of the bottom corners of the vinyl cape will help determine authenticity. "Hi, Thank you for your question. I have dealt with 2 big collectors of Toltoys and have bought many from them. I have rearchesd out the topic of Toltoys of Boba Fett , Jawa, and others. Look for the Collectors Achive of Boba fett and searched for peoples comment and opinions who has bought this toy. The Big Collectors in Australia had many diff. Figures with this types of spots. from the jawa, Chewy, boba, and others with this type of flaws. I have researched and have heard 2 opinions. But after buying 2 from two different people who doesn't know each other, and with my reaserch. I am pleased. I have figures that are not in the books, many variants figures thats are awesome. Thanks for your question, and I hope with your reserch you can determin if this is what you want." this was your reply to Marcus. This site aims to ensure correct information is available to the public. No faded, spotted, light limbed Fett or any other figure is Toltoys & should never be sold or advertised as such, especially at a price premium. The true Toltoys vinyl cape Jawa does have a larger head & almost always shows spots (plastic degredation) BUT it is NOT exclusive to a specific leg marking & certainly not only found in Australia. So a Jawa without a cape can never be truthfully sold as a Toltoys variant. http://www.imperialgunneryforum.com/t3379-everything-you-always-wanted-to-know-about-discolored-figures-but-were-afraid-to-ask I hope the "2 big collectors of Toltoys" are not roller355, hqjedi3, Steven Marek, MickFett...... Edit: checked feedback- sorry to say Harold you did get scammed by him twice (roller355) |

| Oh dear. I'm afraid AJ (& others) are correct. A Jawa with spots is just that & worth $1 max. |

| I am with James here, "The true Toltoys vinyl cape Jawa does have a larger head & almost always shows spots (plastic degredation) BUT it is NOT exclusive to a specific leg marking & certainly not only found in Australia. So a Jawa without a cape can never be truthfully sold as a Toltoys variant."
And also as James, i like to see more detailed pictures off the cape's bottom corners. Can you also take it off and take à picture when it lays flat? My last question, how does the color and crosshatching on the cape compare to an ben kenobi cape?
As from what i can see so far, i am not convinced and tend to say its not an genuine Toltoys Jawa VC Cape.
Cheers Dennis. |
