Great! Good that it sorted out in the end. Just sucks it took all this trouble and you almost bought a fake. Lucky you had gotten that uv!
I got a question, for a friend of mine who unpacked his child hood collection and showed me yesterday, he had even written when he packed it down, 1985.
He a lot of nice figures most in close to mint condition, he also had a trilogo boba unpainted knee and unpainted dart in it. It was in c8.5-c9 condition. Thing that struck me though was that the orange paint was glossy on the right leg and matt paint on left leg. He says he have not painted it and I trust him. Hope some trilogo boba expert can chime in on this. The thing has been in storage forever. I forgot to take a photo of it.
