PC Minifigures (China)
These are NOT the MABS figures being made in the Mexico nightshift, but the older polycarbonate plastic, allegedly from the LEGO factory in China.
It has been hard to find much info on these. I have heard a couple times that they were given out to "high-ranking Lego employees as gifts around 10 years ago". (Lego's Jiaxing factory opened in 2016.)
The yellowish-clear figure and the two blue figures with mismatched hands are older still, with a factory code "B" before their mould numbers. These moulds match early collectible minifigures, so were likely made by outsourced partners in Schenzhen (Broadway Precision Technology?) or Hong Kong (Morning Light Enterprises Co.?) prior to the factory in Jiaxing.
Because these figures are polycarbonate, which has a tendency to bond to itself, these do crack easily (especially since they're made with molds intended for ABS). I have avoided assembling them completely :)
