| Tooling Master Hardcopy for Leia Boushh Action Figure | |
| Is Leia in Boushh disguise the coolest Leia action figure? It's probably not my favorite. I reserve that title for Kenner's original version of the character. But cool is a whole 'nother category. A favorite isn't necessarily cool. And someone who is cool may not be your best friend. Or any sort of friend. He's just cool.
As far as I'm concerned, Leia Boushh is one of the coolest figures in the entire Kenner line. Of course, the helmet helps a lot. Naturally, figures with removable helmets score high on the cool-o-meter. This item was part of a substantial find of hardcopies representing the 65-back-wave figures. Believed to have been intended for use in the creation of tooling (i.e., the molds used for mass production), they are what prototype collectors refer to as tooling masters. As such, they are all complete and immaculately finished. |
