Major Variations:
The Luke Skywalker figure has more variations than most other figures in the vintage line. The major variations are the spray ops on the figure's head. This figure is commonly available with yellow hair, but also shipped with dark brown hair (primarily in North America) and light brown hair (primarily in Europe).
There are two versions of the Lightsaber. The first version (primarily packed into the Early Bird set* and scarcely on the Star Wars 12 back card) was made of two pieces and featured a double telescoping action. When weighing out playability versus cost efficiency, the double telescoping version was replaced by the much more common single telescoping Lightsaber.
* Though most Early Bird sets did come with the double telescoping Lightsabers, there are some documented specimens packed with the common single telescoping version.
Although there are currently only two documented specimens, this figure was also produced with reddish blonde hair. To date, not much is known about its availability.
