Long time no post ... sorry ... still trying to find a house to buy and have not had much time for TIG
ANYWAYS ... Always worried when I think I have found a PBP in my home town here in Australia.
Wondering if anyone can help with this COO? The figure sound very "hollow" like its made out of a hard plastic (if that helps?)
Just looked at the blaster and it is way lighter than my others

Hi, Would it be possible to get more photos maybe with a side-to-side comparison with another (known) Tie? The coo is known for PBP but also for Euro and LL variants so more images would help determine the origin.
The blaster (top one in your photo?) looks like it's painted, are the black dots in the photo where the paint has worn? If it has been painted it could of course be a Nein Nunb blaster but it could also be a repro.

Thanks ... I had not noticed those spots ... you are 100% correct ... the gun has been pained. It is an original gun .. just its black not grey !!!
Thankfully I only paid $10 for the lot so not a huge let down !!!
More pics (sorry for the shit house camera):
The two most noticeable differences are:

Hey Chopper, emblems are different. Pretty sure it's 'PBP'
