Star Wars PBP Greedo CAS 75 & Walrusman CAS 80+ Loose (PBP, 1980s)....

Description

Star Wars PBP Greedo CAS 75 & Walrusman CAS 80+ Loose (PBP, 1980s). Hailing from Spain's storied PBP production line, this cantina duo offers a fascinating look into the European chapter of Kenner's global Star Wars legacy. Though both are labeled "1978" by CAS, Poch/PBP's domestic manufacturing did not begin until 1981 - when the company transitioned from importing Hong Kong parts to full in-house production. These locally finished figures display the distinctive traits that define PBP output: heavier paint textures, deeper tones, and subtle mold variations that set them apart from their Kenner counterparts. Greedo is graded 75 (True Grade 77.3), and Walrusman earns 80+ (True Grade 84.1), notable for the bumpy texture of the black paint on his boots, a hallmark of Poch/PBP's unique paint application process. For collectors of international variants, this pairing captures the tactile charm and production quirks that make the PBP line so sought after. These are relics of Spain's distinct contribution to the Star Wars toy phenomenon, where factory differences evolved into cultural artifacts of collecting history.
