| Hoth Generator Attack Figure Quality Control Sample Set | |
| Here's a cool quality control sample set I scored for my collection several years ago. The set consists of all six figures (5 Hoth Stormtroopers and 1 Darth Vader) from the Micro Collection Hoth Generator Attack playset.
The second photo shows the outer bag complete with a label related to the playset's product code along with the QC label itself.
The QC label has been signed and dated by the appropriate reviewer. The label further indicates four of the figures were acceptable, but two were rejected.
Two of the four figures that passed inspection are shown above. As you can see, each figure is individually bagged and appropriately marked with either "OK" or "reject".
The final photo affords a glimpse of the two Hoth Stormtroopers marked "reject". The Hoth Generator Attack playset remains an integral component of my Hoth Stormtrooper collecting focus from both a production item and pre-production item standpoint. It's inclusion, along with the "Build Your Armies" mail-away set, in this focus provides me with a greater opportunity to add prototype material to the focus as opposed to what would have amounted to a significantly more limited quantity with a strictly 3 3/4" action figure-centric focus. |
