| Careful guys, Here is another Taiwan coo Boba faked to look like a no coo. Someone has also removed the knee paint as well on this one to make it look like an unpainted knee variant  Obviously the seller may/may not be aware of this. He knows what a custom snaggletooth is though as he is selling one in another auction  Anyone care to ask the seller a few questions about this Boba? I hope this coo faking trend will not rear it's ugly head too much. There are a lot of new variant collectors around in the last year or so that i would not like to see get burned http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/vintage-starwars-figure-boba-fett-complete-no-coo-/330593141740?pt=UK_ToysGames_ActionFigures_ActionFigures_JN&hash=item4cf8e303ec |

| Lee, I too spotted this one and informed the seller that it had been tampered with and he promptly removed the listing. I just wish I'd done the same with the other one before it sold for over a hundred pounds  |

| Good spot Lee!! The seller apparently makes more mistakes in his listings, check this out. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/vintage-star-wars-figure-zuckass-complete-/330590049165?pt=UK_ToysGames_ActionFigures_ActionFigures_JN&hash=item4cf8b3d38d  |

| hmm so trust no one--
I have seen a few lately as well i have been suspicious of..
BTW the 7 int he HK is dropped - the © on the Mecc and The mysterious Boba with the Clear © similar to the Meccano is slightly larger maybe -.25mm but larger..
I have also seen a few Ledys coming up - that seem to be scraped off coo.s
Personally I don't know what to believe or trust anymore..
frustrated..
Q does the Ledy Boba have the dropped 7 like the other HK figs. ? |

| My Ledy has the 'dropped' 7 raised 9. Many of the 'scarred' figures have very small raised dots which would be very hard to fake. |
