Yep, believe it or not!  . A friend of mine from here in the states has most of them. Basically all but Stormtrooper, Chewie and Headman. He also has the molds to the mini-rigs (small ships). These were purchased back in the late 90's. Each mold weighs almost 100 pounds, which I can just imagine. I have a plaster one that weighs 10 pounds, so I can just imagine what a steel one is. Anyway the other three are owned by a private collector as well but I'm not as close to him.

Darth Pyross,
I emailed my friend to see if I can use the mold pics and am just waiting to hear back from him for his permission. He also has a complete carded set of these figures including the only known carded Headman along with the only known loose multi-color shield variant. There is also a variant Snowtrooper carded figure out there that I believe is a mock-up but I'm not sure who owns it at this moment. I'll keep in touch with his response  .

Still waiting to hear on the factory mold pics. If all fails I will send one pic to you Pyross . I also learned that the Mini-rig molds weigh over 200 pounds each.
I also just scored a few Uzay figures to add to my collection. I just bought Chewbacca, Imperial Gunner and Blue Stars (finally).

Chewbacca huh ? Did you know that the UZAY bootleg Chewbacca was released in Turkey under the name "Aslan Adam", which translates "Lion Man" ?

Yep. And there was even a second version Chewbacca that was called Maymun Adam. I'm not sure what that translates to, I know adam means man. This was the same Chewbacca figure just different variant card.

Maymun means "monkey" when directly translated but I think what they wanted to mean was something like "Ape-man".
