| If you were to choose one favorite figure or piece of an "overseas licensed" line..which would you choose?
Consider the following:
- Harbert
- Lili Ledy
- Takara
- Meccano
- Poch/PBP
- Palitoy
- Clipper
- Parker
- Toltoys
- Glasslite
If none of your favorites are on this list, feel free to add on! |

| Tough question, the goal of my collection is trying to get at least one Jawa item from all of the above mentioned licensers/countries so picking just one of them is like asking a mother which child is her favorit. I love the Clipper 12 back but i live in the Netherlands so it doesn't count as overseas. The Meccano vc Jawa is beautiful but French, so again no boat trip is involved. That leaves me at a tie between the Lili Ledy and the Toltoys Jawa. The Ledy is a super cool figure with the oval eyes, the big blaster, the removable hood and a beautiful cardback but in the end the Toltoys wins as it is basically a beater figure with the "wrong" cape on a card that makes no sence at all |

| I'm with Andy on front/back Front is Harbert for me. There are only 2 figs (Yoda and Fett) and the ESB logo is just killer Back is actually tough. I want to say that either POCH 37/41 or Ledy negative 50bk |

| I don't do carded, so for me it is all about the loose variants. This makes a few of these things rather plain once off the card. However without a doubt the best variants that have been put out (in my opinion) are from Ledy. I think the burgundy bib fortuna or brick red squid head are the two most quickly recognized Ledy figures and the bib fortuna is my favorite of those two. |

| Andy , you know it ,,,,, Poch variants and cardbacks for me .... not a secret i'm quite obsessed with these figures. when John posted that facebook sale my house almost got re fi'd . (not really ) as for the cardbacks gotta go Poch again , no brainer . on a side note if I was a carded collector which everyone like Bryan knows i'm not Harbert would be a close second as they are really cool . |
