Han Solo (Hoth Battle Gear)

Collector's Notes for a vintage Star Wars Han Solo (Hoth Battle Gear) Action Figure:

One of the lower value Han Solo figures, Hoth Han comes in his cold weather attire and a Blue Rebel Blaster. This Han was occasionally packaged with a blue-black rebel blaster.

You'll find a number of variations of Hoth Han with different paint applications: white to pinkish faces, and light brown to darker brown pants. For the most part, these variations do not impact price. Where price is concerned, look for the "molded leg" variant. These sometimes fly under the radar, but when identified will fetch a significantly higher price.

How do you tell a standard Hoth Han from a Molded Leg Hoth Han? Look for a copyright on the right leg, and check for paint defects.

Molded Leg Hoth Han had the legs molded in a light brown/tan plastic, with blue paint on the hip portion. All other versions had the legs molded in blue plastic and the legs were painted various shades of light brown. All the molded leg Hoth Hans were produced by the Kader manufacturing company. They will have the copyright on the RIGHT leg and "made in Hong Kong" on the left leg. If the copyright is on the left leg, or if there is no "Hong Kong", it's not a molded leg. Kader produced Han with the same COOs in both molded and painted versions so the COO is just the first step to check. Next, look for paint chips on the legs - there is almost always some wear or manufacturing paint flaw that will show the blue plastic through the brown paint on the painted leg variant. When in doubt, check the foot peg holes - the brown paint typically didn't get sprayed into the holes, so you should a fade to blue on painted legs.

The foot peg holes can help distinguish a molded leg Hoth Han from a painted leg Hoth Han.

All molded leg Hoth Hans were made by Kader - identified with a Copyright Symbol on the right leg, and Made In Hong Kong on the left. HOWEVER, Kader made both molded and painted leg Hans with this COO, so you need to look further at the paint and the foot peg holes.

Pricing Variant 1 - Hoth Han Painted Legs

The most common Hoth Han Solo has legs that are molded in blue plastic and are painted some shade of brown. They are very common and typically very inexpensive. You can look for paint defects in the legs to show blue through the brown paint, but odds are - if you have a Hoth Han in your hands, it's this version.

Pricing Variant 2 - Hoth Han Molded Legs

This version of Hoth Han has legs molded in brown plastic, with the upper portion painted blue. Pretty rare and will fetch a pretty high price - if it's noticed. Look for super-clean legs with no paint defects on the lower portion, and look for possible rubs in the upper blue painted portion of the leg to show signs of the brown plastic underneath. Checking the foot peg holes is sometimes the best way to be sure as there should be NO blue showing through there.

As this Han's accessory is the common Blue Rebel Blaster, it makes little to no difference if the figure is complete or not from a value perspective.

General advice for selling vintage Star Wars collectibles:

The following suggestions are intended to help you get the best price possible for the figure you are trying to sell, whether you are selling on eBay, Mercari, or any other online platform.

Best Platforms for Selling Vintage Star Wars Action Figures

Every platform has its advantages. If you have a solid brand built in a particular platform - you should definitely sell there. In general, our top pick is eBay. Yes, we are an eBay affiliate, but eBay is a solid, reputable platform that has been around as long as e-commerce. People trust it, and it has solid protections for sellers and buyers. Other platforms like FaceBook Market Place, Mercari, Etsy, and even Poshmark are all solid platforms, but most sellers do not rely on any one of them singly. Often, if you find a listing on one of these platforms, it is likely cross-listed on eBay. So if you are looking to post on a single online platform, eBay is our top recommendation. For local sales, FaceBook Market Place and Craigslist are your best bets. Facebook will probably get you a larger audience, but Craigslist still attracts a large group of people that shy away from social media.

Tips For Listing Vintage Star Wars Action Figures Online

  • Take clear, close-up photos of the figure, including the following:
    • Full body from the front, back, sides AND top.
    • Close ups of the accessory/weapon, by itself, from both sides.
  • Take photos of any damaged areas, including scratches, rubbed off paint, or discoloration.
  • Take photos of the figure standing without help of a stand if you can to demonstrate the tightness of the legs.
  • Take photos of the figure with arms extended to demonstrate the tightness of the arms.
  • Any the above photo suggestions can of course be combined to minimize the number of photos you need to take/upload. Consider an action pose of the figure from an angle, with weapon in hand, and the head pointed at the camera. This demonstrates a number of traits while at the same time making a cool main photo.
  • If the arms and/or legs are loose, disclose that in the listing.
  • If there is any damage or discoloration, disclose that in the listing.
  • DO NOT buy reproduction weapons to sell with a figure to make them "look complete". Collectors do NOT want reproduction items and your reputation can be ruined for selling them. Do your best to verify the weapon with resources like The Imperial Gunnery. If you can't verify it, mention that in the listing. The more effort you put into knowing the product, the more trust you will earn from the buyers!
  • DO NOT post a figure with a vintage accessory that does not go with it and claim that's it's "100% original". Even if the accessory is an original, if it doesn't go to the figure - no one wants to buy it that way. You are better off listing the accessory separately.
  • Avoid using the phrase "No Repro" in the listing to try to indicate that it's all original. Many serious collectors have advanced searches that they use, and frequently block "repro" in the search. So, even though you have a "no" in there, you may be losing some of your audience. Instead, use phrases like "100% original" or "complete and all original vintage accessories".
  • Do NOT post fuzzy or out of focus pictures. Buyers will likely think that you either don't know what you are doing, or that you are trying to hide something about the figure.
  • You do not need fancy cameras to take good pictures for your posting. An older cell phone can often take perfect photos. If you are having trouble getting a clear shot, consider getting or making a simple mount for your phone. This will hold it steady for you while you make sure it gets in focus.
