Heads up variant hunters. It appears that there is in fact a variant for the holograph Leia that is included with the exclusive 6″ Black Series Obi-Wan Kenobi. A post from the 6″ Black Series Collectors Group on Facebook shows the example of her with the painted face and hands. Which do you prefer?
Thanks to @cerbres_child on Twitter for the alert.
UPDATE: The person on Facebook apparently customized theirs to have the painted face and hands. No variant exists. Crisis over.
Watch and rewatch and rewatch.
