wrong year of manufacture stamp , missing long raised bar under date , lack of excess molding flashing under figures backside. all glasslites were the "removeable limbs" version of the figure.

Thanks for that warning and analysis. Shame to see it's coming from NZ.

my analysis is courtesy of information provided by "imperial gunnery" website. one of the hands down authorities in vintage collection and variations. Yes, a shame this has come from NZ, even bigger shame it was offered by a well known long term star wars collector dealer and SWNZ member

Personally, I'll never hold a grudge against someone for owning up to an honest mistake.
