Han on TaunTaun Painted 4-up Hardcopy
Showcased here is an hand painted Han Solo on TaunTaun 4-up. This prototype is one of the single most impressive 4-ups a collector can find from my perspective. The intricate detail and sheer size of the 4-up lend heavily to its appeal. Additionally, Han Solo is a pretty darn good character to own in pre-production form. The 4-up is designated by the number 692-006. The first three digits represent the Hoth Ion Cannon playset, while the last three indicate the particular character/pose. A similar 4-up, comparable in immense size, featuring Luke atop his TaunTaun may be viewed here

Cj, an avid Han Hoth collector, has assembled what I and many other collectors consider to be the largest and most comprehensive collection of Han Hoth pre-production items in existence. A collection of this magnitude is truly what many character collectors seek to achieve through their collecting efforts.
