These came from Jerry Palmer collection, not the Rick Arthur collection where most of my other Star Wars prototypes originated. There’s no type of authentication paperwork or anything on these.
There were some of the few Star Wars items in Jerry’s collection. But most everything from his collection seem to be some type of prototype vendor supplied product (VSP’s), engineering pilot or Ken...ner /Hasbro Standard figure or something of that nature. These figures stood out like many reviewed samples of figures that he had for a couple of reasons their color and their tape sealed.Firstly, their color seems to have a tint of green to them. And I have found no such color variation discussed anymore online.As you can see in the picture I’m showing four of the regular mail always next to the four of these that I have.At minimum it’s an odd color variation, however I think these are vendor supply products (VSPs) or something close to a final engineering pilot.One bId equals one figure. And be clear you’re bidding on ONE of the four slightly green tinted ones (which are the four in the bottom half of the first picture.) Yours will be picked at random so please do not request particular figs or boxes.
I’m keeping my asking price cheap on these because of the uncertainty of the figures and the variation of color is minor.
Each of them had multiple tape seals one of these figures (one was opened and resealed five times.) This is pretty common practice on review samples. Sometimes toys are open and closed (and re-taped) multiple times in the case where something has been forgotten in the production process maybe instruction sheets or something of that nature. However these mail Aways only had one item inside the box...the seal figure in the plastic bag; thus no reason to open and close it many times.
Again, these figs do come from the collection of a former Kenner / Hasbro engineer, however it is not the same collection that all of my other Star Wars prototypes comes from. These figures are a few of the Star Wars figures that were included in the much larger transformer GI Joe dominated collection. My belief that they Are VSP’s or engineering pilots is entirely speculative. That’s why I am selling these add an extremely low price.
