Hi all,

I recently came across this Jar Jar Binks head (pictured on the right) and I
can't seem to identify it on BL. It is not like any of the three variants
of the mold. I think it could be misprint of 92743pb03 (which is pictured on
the left).

If I am horribly wrong please point me in the right direction! My Star Wars knowledge
is not the best!

Thanks

WOW!

Are misprints even worth anything on top of the original value? I know some people
like to collect them.

Very collectable from what i've seen and most if not all have higher values
because of it, i don't collect them specifically but we've had a few
come through our way and i have them all bagged in a draw, like my little treasure
box, my fave so far is Theoden's armour, the printing is on the back instead
of the front, always nice to get something a little more quirky.

I'm not a huge SW fan so I don't think I'll keep it, I think there
are others who will treasure it more than me!

This will be worth more, as it is a nice one that can also be used for variation
and not just curiousity. Did you get it in a set, or in a lot? I think one of
the Chinese sellers that do missing print / bad print parts was selling that
one a few years ago. I bought a lot of LOTR parts that were missing paint from
them but didn't really pay too much attention to the SW parts. I remember
that they had a lot of partially printed ewok heads.

I got it in a bundle of parts from eBay.

Definitely a misprint & a pretty good one.
There’s a group on Facebook that specialises in misprinted minifigs if you’re
looking to sell it.
