| I haven't seen one like it before but that doesn't mean anything. Check the limelight section for the Luke Jedi focus and see I think it was Shawn or Craig (or both) who have it and there is a ton of info in there.

| I have two snaps, one thick and fluffy, the other thinner and less fluffy a bit like your pic. Both sets of press studs are silver. Is the stictching in the hood of yours black? Or is it the light?
Yours looks a bit like the stitched cape. Don't have mine to hand atm to check the colour stitching of the lining of hood. Yours doesn't look repro but possibly it's a stitched that's been 'unstitched' and someone added a black press stud set to it?

| The stitch on the inside is black, but on the outside of the cape/hood, no black stitching is visible. I got this cape in a pile of figures from someone in Canada so I don't really know where it came from. The figure pile had some Lili Ledy's and some PBP, along with HK, Taiwan, China, and no COO figures.

| I don't know that I have ever seen one with black stitches before. Ledy did not have snap cape co that is not a possibility (at least to my knowledge they didn't). |

| Scott is spot on. 3 factories ( ignoring Ledy) - specific cape material for each, unlike the one in question  Craig's research thread: http://www.imperialgunneryforum.com/t504-craigy-s-luke-jedi-last-updated-02-07-2010 Think of all that money you have saved from not sending your figures away for grading  |
