There's always the Metallic Green "Transformants" too ...

I think the most known figure that this happens to is Chewbacca (on his belt pouch) . I have seen it on original and Bespin Leia and Han's hair , Hoth Rebel Commanders scarfs and the arms and legs of Imperial Commanders What a Face

That squid head rainbow shot really freaks me out lol the discolouration is so uniform in most cases. I thought the more red/brown ones were international variants.

Don't forget about cloth capes. I pulled this picture from ebay a few years back, and the back ground was edited out. Clearly shows the cape mid change.

Don't forget about Clints pic Chris. I suppose beside the confirmed LL burgundy cape they are all discoloured. I really like this funny rainbow of my Squids but actually don't see them as "true variants"

by **Commander Clint** Sun Aug 06, 2017 12:21 am

I don't think of the cape colours as variants either. Just a neat oddity. Here are another couple of examples of the capes discolouring. Again, I got the pictures from ebay a couple of years ago, and photoshoped the background out.

Oh I totally agree but it's just wild how many of them change uniformly, I know there's exceptions.

by **Akial** Mon Aug 07, 2017 7:28 am

Same with Ugnaught. Look at my pic top of this page. Simply hard to believe they all have been straight blue.

Just had to share this beauty! Found on eBay. Usually it is the torso that discolors.

Rob, that's an awesome example of biotransformant. cheers

by **hellhippie** Tue Sep 19, 2017 12:07 pm

cool snowtrooper . pretty sure the limbs and torso were made in 2 different factories ... (maybe) . poch examplesaltyhough this is not p[och have a tendency to degrade in a similar way

by **Pantzman** Fri Sep 22, 2017 10:50 pm

Amazing article. Although I'm a variant collector and will use any excuse to keep a figuire I'm getting a bit sick of all these made up names.

by **ourchickenshack** Tue Jan 30, 2018 10:17 pm

Was going through some of my older pics and found this rainbow of Squids I use to have ...

Mostly oddball stuff - I do keep some figures but even those aren't generally "normal" lol!

Wow! Then uniformity in the discolouration is remarkable! I need to check this thread more often, that hoth stormy is a sight to behold! clapping
