Han Solo Unpainted First Shot
Prototypes from the first 12 Star Wars characters are held in high regard by pre-production collectors. The unpainted Han Solo (small head) first shot represents a fine example of this pre-production stage.

As the rear photo conveys, the unpainted first shot lacks all copyright and country of origin markings.

The final image, a side view, illustrates that the first shot's torso has been glued as opposed to sonic welded.

Kyle has chosen to persue a character focus for the original Han Solo figure. The unpainted first shot clearly represents a superb way to kick off a character focus.
