Pictured is an Original Trilogy Collection (OTC) Mock-up Jawa (MOC). Prior to the release of the Original Trilogy Collection in 2004, the Jawas had been mocked up on a Saga cardback. It is not uncommon for figures to be placed on various cardbacks to see what they will look like prior to being released for a future line. Similar
to most mock-ups, an existing cardback and insert had been used. In
this case, a C3PO cardback and Darth Maul insert. There are subtle
differences between the insert used on this mock-up and the production version. The bubble, however is interesting, as it matches the one used
when the figures were produced on OTC cardbacks. The inner tray is cut
for each figure and weapon as well.Since the Jawas were repainted versions of the ones produced in 1996, it makes sense that the same figures would be used for this mock-up. These make a very notable addition to my ongoing Modern pre-production collection.
