You are bidding on the rarest of Star Wars figures, the original 1977 Vinyl Caped Jawa action figure. This is considered the 2nd most rare Star Wars figure because of the Ultra rare vinyl cape. This has been with me for 30 years and is completely original. The cape has a small tear in his right shoulder, but is still intact. Cape needs a slight cleaning wipe too, but it's all good.The paint on the Jawa is in excellent condition. The following websites provide valuable insight as to the rarity of this Jawa.

UPDATE 9th of September: Thank you to everyone who has emailed me in the last few days. I had no idea how rare and popular this little Jawa is! I have been told several times from potential buyers that this is an Australian Toltoys 1977 Jawa. And yes, there is some grey 'spotting' on the Jawa. That apparently means it is a Toltoys Jawa and extremely rare. Good luck everyone!
