| I bought this han solo from a seller in spain claiming it was pure poch . it has pale pinted hands ,a pale face and neck and extra plastic extrusions between the legs and on the bottom of both feet so badly it doesn't stand on its own . it all says poch , small belt buckle , pale painted hands from a Spanish source , the only thing is when I read the guide that all supposed poch han solos have fat eyebrows. is this true?Mine does not have fat eyebrows, check the pics. does that mean this isn't poch? any help would be appreciated . thanks , bill |

| Could it be a mixed up figure? Asian painted factory head & poch body? |

| I agree with Steve on this figure. I picked up the same figure from Spain last year: Kenner painted parts mixed with POCH painted parts. Cool figure, congrats! |

Yup, I would say so yes.
BTW: Most Poch figures seem to be mosaics of parts orignating from different mould families, which were subsequently painted and welded into figures. I use the term hybrid to indicate that some parts were already painted in Kenner factories before being welded into figures. For instance Poch Luke Farmboy with Kenner brown head, Poch Bespin Guard with flesh coloured Kenner hands, etc. And also this Han Solo figure with Kenner head.

| I assume it is a Poch figure, based upon finding the same figure in Spain a few times. The fact it is a hybrid figure would not change that.
Definite proof should come from a MOC though.
Curious: Which 10 figures you managed to acquire sofar?
Cheers
