That Early Bird set originally, Luke with DT saber, Chewbacca's crossbow was green translucent, and R2-D2 had a real dark blue dome, Leia I think was mostly Dark Brown paint. Those later 8 SW figures, the Boba Fett offer 20 back is the regular debut card for them. Those first 20 backs are extremely rare, because mostly weren't out yet. Just like Bossk's debut 32A. Very, very rare on a 31A. You need an upgrade for your Luke X-Wing figure my friend 😂👌 Good job my Padawan 👍

I think you briefly mentioned it, but in Europe at least where I live, all the power of the force figures were published on trilogo cards. So, I don’t have any of the coins, which I don’t miss. Got a few yak faces and amanaman which same as you I remember I thought are not Star Wars figures, but sold with a Star Wars logo...so my parents bought them an I neglected them for some time...nice video, though for me Star Wars is more what money can’t buy...my childhood memories:)

I recently discovered your channel. Just wanted to say i really am enjoying your content . I been collecting for about 20 years now. I mostly collect newer figures, but i been getting back into the classic line. Im so kicking myself in the balls after watching this video. About 14 years ago me and my wife separated and i gave away a bunch of classic figures because i didn't feel like collecting them. Boy did i royally screw up because i had some of those POF ones and didn't think they were a big deal. I can't believe that barada was worth that much. I started to tear up when you said how much he was worth. I had a Stormtrooper luke, yak face, A wing pilot, and B wing pilot that i just gave away in a bag with other figures to my buddy. I also sold my pristine, fully complete kenner Death Star playset for $90.😢😢😢

The classic Kenner figures sure have their charm if you grew up in the 80s.. of course the new vintage collection looks better. Squid Head for example was one of my favorite figures, recently got the new one (in a 4-pack Hasbro exclusive), and the recent one sure is of another level. Still wish I had the ones from my childhood but as late teenager I lost interest and they got lost or got destroyed by my younger brother. Ree-Yees is also in that new 4-pack, he looks more badass now but also liked the more cute version of the 80s. But yeah, obviously the new figures look way more realistic, compare 80s Bib Fortuna with the new version for example. Barada was the first figure I bought as a kid, that one doesn't have a decent remake. Ah yes, the Rancor.. that was a good one.

@thepadawancollectorofficial 9 ай бұрын

Great take Danny, I agree the new figures have been made with better techniques, but gotta love where it all started.

@@thepadawancollectorofficial It's big time nostalgia.. they had many great action figures back then, also loved He-Man, Mask, GJ Joe. But Star Wars were the best. The modern remakes of He-Man and Gi Joe aren't interesting imo, but some of the new Star Wars figures are pretty cool.

The paint jobs were so varied. I have three different versions of General Madine and four if Bespin Luke. Three if the AT AT commander, two of Bespin Leia and two of the snow trooper. My favourite variant is the Macau Logray with the olive green stripes.

Also keep in mind there were multiple factories being Hong Kong,Taiwan, Macau and mainland China. I think there was also a factory in Spain which made the Greedo variant with the extra paint on the eyes.

Wow. Paying $100+ for a single figure is obnoxious. I'm glad for customizers like Stan Solo et al. making comparable quality / improved versions of most of these wallet cleaners for $50 or less.

My collecting passion is baseball cards, but if it weren't for that, I'd likely be doing vintage Star Wars - like so many, had them all back in the day. Question - you refer to some as the "Hong Kong" version - I assume that means they were manufactured in Hong Kong, but what are the other options?

@thepadawancollectorofficial 7 ай бұрын

Hey Mark! There were a multitude of manufacturing plants that Kenner and Palitoy used. Most of these were in Asia, like Hong Kong. These parts would be made and sent back to assembly plants for boxing and distribution. I hope that answers your question.

The prices that I listed for the ones that I bought has shipping and taxes included (if it was applicable). The current prices are ones that it was sold for and didnt account for taxes and shipping - that would be dependent on where you live and your current local taxes.

That’s a grail piece! You can always post pictures up on my Facebook group called The Padawan Academy. If you have all of the trays, paper work, and the cardboard background with the pegs, the Kenner baggies, and it’s in pristine condition it’s worth thousands. If it’s just the figures, depending on how good they are it can be a couple hundred. If the figures are in ok or rough shape and don’t have their original accessories, you are looking at maybe 30 bucks for all of them
