Star Wars PBP Han Solo (Large Head) CAS 75+ & Snaggletooth CAS 80 Loose (PBP, 1980s)....

Description

Star Wars PBP Han Solo (Large Head) CAS 75+ & Snaggletooth CAS 80 Loose (PBP, 1980s). Produced in Spain during the PBP manufacturing era, these figures highlight the transition from imported Asian parts to Spain's fully domestic production. The pairing of Han Solo (Large Head) and Snaggletooth captures two of the most recognizable faces from the Mos Eisley Cantina - one the smuggler whose swagger defined a generation, and the other a background alien whose enigmatic design earned cult status among collectors. Both figures reflect PBP's scarred molding and paint application techniques, representing the evolution of Spain's vintage Star Wars output. Han Solo (Large Head) is graded CAS 75+ with a true grade of 78.3, while Snaggletooth is graded CAS 80 with a true grade of 82.1. Although CAS labeled the figures as 1977 and 1978 releases based on their mold date stamps, Poch and later PBP production did not begin until approximately 1981, firmly situating these examples within the Spanish domestic production era. To collectors, PBP versions of early Kenner characters like Han Solo and Snaggletooth stand as a testament to the global reach of the vintage line. Their distinctive paint tones, subtle material variations, and regional quirks exemplify how Star Wars transcended borders - reimagined by each factory that carried its legacy forward into a new cultural context.
