Pintura por Numeros (Star Wars Paint by Number) Ref. 115 Princess Leia/R2-D2 & Lightsaber Duel

Contrary to what is commonly believed, Spanish company POCH held a Star Wars license before the ESB era. Although they didn�t release any carded figures or boxed ships until 1981, these very hard to find paint-by-number sets could be found in Spanish stores as early as 1977.

The LA GUERRA DE LAS GALAXIAS logo is very cool, and wasn�t used on any later POCH collectible. It differs greatly from the mexican version seen here. The POCH logo itself is exactly the same that was used on ESB carded figures between 1981 and 1982.
