Star Wars POTF Question.

What is the significance of the different coloured packages on the Star Wars Power of the Force action figures? I've seen Momaw Nadon in a green package and a red package. Why is this and what does the colour variation signify?? Also, what is the variation on the Boba Fett? Some circles or half circles on his hands. Is this a variation? Looking for help.

Re: Star Wars POTF Question.

The variations on those cards were ridiculous, some had holograms with the picture under it, others had no holograms just pictures.
The card colors were just a transition between the POTF2 lines, it really was no big deal but it was the first time this had happened since the release of new product in '95.
The Boba Fett was almost as ridiculous, there was full circle on left, full circle on right, full circle on both. Then half circle on left and half circle on right.
Then, if I remember correctly it went to just a half circle on both.
There were also other variations on Fett like no emblem on the chest armor.
I was collecting mostly in the States at the time so I don't know what variations made it over here.
From what I could tell variations rarely made it to Canada because by the time we got them the errors had been corrected.

I owned most of the variations but got out of sealed collecting due to space limitations.

Leia had two different belts. One with two 'lines' on it and one with three.

Re: Star Wars POTF Question.

and let's not forget the saber/tray lengths

it's crazy to think what those used to go for.

Yeah, those long sabered figures never really lived up to the hype longterm. I think I ended up selling off most of them for $5 each after lugging them to toy shows for over ten years.

Bah... POTF... what horrible sculpts - even the astromechs looked like they were on the roids. I ejected everything but vehicles from my collectiong. Actually just got the old A-Wing for a steal.
