Star Wars Glasslite Thall Joben AFA 70 Loose (Glasslite, 1988)....

Description

Star Wars Glasslite Thall Joben AFA 70 Loose (Glasslite, 1988). Released in Brazil by Glasslite in 1988 as part of the Star Wars Droids line, this Thall Joben figure demonstrates the regional traits that set Glasslite's production apart from Kenner's original release. The figure features a paler head and arms, darker red hair, and thicker painted eyebrows, with larger, lighter-colored eyes that soften the character's expression. The molding is sharper due to the harder plastic used, and the paint applications show clear differences, including revised spray masks on the hair and chest. The trousers and torso display a darker, glossier gray tone, accented by lighter blue details on the waist and shoulders, and finished with glossy orange boots distinctive to the Brazilian release. This example has been graded AFA 70, falling within the Excellent+ range. The figure includes its correct accessories and carries the trademark handmade charm of the company's Droids assortment. Encased in a clear AFA display, this Glasslite Thall Joben embodies the unique artistry and imperfection of Brazilian Star Wars production-a rare reinterpretation of the animated hero whose vibrant palette and subtle quirks make him a standout in any international collection.
