Star Wars Fake Vinyl Cape Jawa MOC
This is perhaps the most impressive bubble reseal job to date. There were numerous clues that gave away this was a fake, but the reseal job was not one of them. Meccano bubbles do not have the waffle glue pattern common on Kenner figures, so it is slightly easier to repaste a Meccano bubble, but it is still amazing that there are no signs of re-gluing or a bubble that was removed. The most obvious clue that gave this one away was that the cape's color is wrong, since this one matches Ben's cape. This item was first pictured in Action Figure News and Toy Review.
