01/05/2004 02:25 AMBelieve it or not,
EV-9D9, the creepy
tobacco throated droid from
Jabba’s Palace, was actually a
female droid! Yes, that’s right, in the old days of
Star Wars
today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
shared the pages of the annual ‘
Hot Chicks In A Galaxy Far, Far
Away…’ calendar. Humana. Humana. Humana.

Vintage Photo Archives: 4-LOM
11/14/2003 01:20 AMMost vintage collectors will argue to no end that Kenner's vintage
Star Wars line was flawless, but even the most die-hard out there will
agree that the toymaker did mess up once. The mistake in question
deals partially with the
4-LOM action figure.
It seems that the hard working people at Kenner had somehow mixed his
and Zuckuss's names up. As a result, to vintage collectors, today’s
addition to the
Vintage
Photo Archive will always be 4-LOM. But for those of you that read
this column daily, it is, of course, all old news…
Vintage Photo Archives: 8D8
Vintage Photo Archives: 8D8
12/15/2003 02:28 AMHow is it that
8D8,
a mute white robot that looks like it belongs on a
Pete
Townsend album cover could be a popular action figure? Well, in
the case of
8D8, there is the whole
Star Wars character
angle, plus like many kids, this guy liked taking out his aggressions
on pool little
Power Droids. So it would seem a no-brainer…
Well, except that today's addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
wasn’t really a
popular action figure. Chances are, anyone with
hours on their hands (like any toy collector doesn’t have too much of
that) could probably still find a couple of these carded at their
local mom and pop toy store. Hint: Look behind the
Bionic Six
action figures in the discount bin.
Vintage Photo Archives: The Emperor
Vintage Photo Archives: The Emperor
12/19/2003 11:31 AMBefore he was known as
Darth Sidious, our boy went by simply
The Emperor. What
many people don’t realize though, is that this guy, who was once a
simple senator known as
Palpatine, had his motivations clearly
spelled out to the [soon-to-be]
Star Wars Generation before any
of the films were even released. As a matter of fact, Sci-Fi fans who
picked up the
Star Wars: From The Adventures Of Luke Skywalker
novel ‘written’ by George Lucas in 1976, were privy to the underlining
plot of
The Phantom Menace months before
A New Hope was
released. The book had a small prologue called
The Journal Of The
Whills, which for the most part is all about today’s addition to
the
Vintage Photo
Archive. Facts are kooky.

11/13/2003 01:59 AMMost vintage collectors will argue to no end that Kenner's vintage
Star Wars line was flawless, but even the most die-hard out there will
agree that the toymaker did mess up once. The mistake in question
deals partially with the
Zuckuss action
figure. It seems that the hard working people at Kenner had somehow

today’s addition to the

Vintage Photo Archives: Romba
01/08/2004 07:14 PMRomba was a good
looking
Ewok and he knew it. When compared to all his mates,
he’s the only one who doesn’t look like a creepy pint-sized
rag-wearing bear with a sharp stick, a fact that likely makes today’s
addition to the
Vintage
Photo Archive popular with all the
Ewok hotties. Maybe
that’s why this handsome pint-sized rag-wearing bear with a sharp
stick always had a smile on his face.
Vintage Photo Archives: Lobot
Vintage Photo Archives: Lobot
10/31/2003 01:41 AMPerhaps the vintage
Lobot action figure
isn't as exciting as, say, either of the Bespin guards or the Cloud
Car pilot, but he certainly was an intriguing character in the film,
and that likely had a lot to do with today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo
Archive’s success on the toy shelves-- That or maybe it was the
fancy shirts he had a proclivity for wearing that Star Wars fans went
nuts for.
Vintage Photo Archives: Klaatu
Vintage Photo Archives: Klaatu
12/09/2003 02:41 AMThe vintage
Klaatu figure may
seem like nothing more than a plastic representation of one of the
many thugs on the payroll of one Jabba The Hutt. To a vintage
variation collector, however, today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
is evil... pure, unadulterated evil.
Vintage Photo Archives: Yak Face
Vintage Photo Archives: Yak Face
01/23/2004 03:58 AMMuch like the
Vinyl Cape Jawa and
Blue Snaggletooth,
Yak Face will
always be a famous and sought after
Star Wars collectible, both
from die-hard collectors in the
Star Wars community and outside
as well. Though considered to be quite rare, eBay has proven to have
them available in fairly decent quantities on a nearly daily basis.
Nonetheless, it’s perceived to be unbelievably rare –which isn’t all
together true- and therefore warrants higher than average prices.
On a side note, with this post we finish the first part of our
Vintage Photo Archive.
Be sure to check out part two coming this summer to a galaxy near you…
Vintage Photo Archives: Ugnaught
Vintage Photo Archives: Ugnaught
10/29/2003 02:20 AMBelieve it or not, the vintage
Ugnaught action
figure was not a peg warmer! Granted the ugly little dudes weren’t the
first to fly off the shelves, but sell they still did. When Kenner’s
Star Wars line was winding down, collectors were tripping over
Endor Leias, and in some regions even Stormtrooper Lukes and Carbonite
Hans, but the short guys with the make up cases were no where to be
found… Granted, he was technically an army builder –even if it was an
army of stunted unsightly pig guys with aprons and purses. Go to the
Vintage Photo
Archive to see what all the cross-dressing hype was about.
Vintage Photo Archives: Pruneface
Vintage Photo Archives: Pruneface
12/10/2003 02:16 AMGenerally speaking, vintage collectors disregard virtually everything
the Expanded Universe has offered to the Star Wars community. Even
though they still call him
Pruneface
instead of “
Orrimaarko.”, all have to agree that the EU did
answer the age old question that overshadows all others in the vintage
community: ...Who’s this guy???... With it’s rather ambiguous card
back photo, most collectors thought today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
was based on one of the myriad characters from Jabba’s Palace who got
a millisecond of screen time in Return Of The Jedi. As it turns out,
he ended up being a rebel dude from the second act... who only got a
millisecond of screen time in Return Of The Jedi.
Vintage Photo Archives: Warok
Vintage Photo Archives: Warok
01/12/2004 01:50 AMOne would figure that after seven
Ewoks,
Kenner would
have finally been able to get it out of their system, but alas, as
this figure proves nothing could be further from the truth. Mind you,
one has to wonder what the point of adding
Warok to the
collection. For the most part, he is nothing more than a better made
version of a figure that came out a few month’s earlier (Lumat). From
that point of view however, it may be that today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
was only the herald to the way of life
Star Wars collectors
would have to adapt to ten years later…
Vintage Photo Archives: AT-AT Driver
Vintage Photo Archives: AT-AT Driver
10/28/2003 11:09 PMThe
AT-AT
Drivers really seemed to have it made. Not only did they have
exceptionally well designed outfits to look cool whilst staying warm
and toasty in their easy chairs, but they got to drive what is
arguably the most incredible vehicle in the
Star Wars universe.
All other Stormtroopers looked up with envy to today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo
Archive with nothing but the highest respect, which is really
weird since they are all the same dude… Goes to show, you can make a
trillion clones from a single nefarious bounty hunter, but none of
them are going to be too smart.
Vintage Photo Archives: Amanaman
Vintage Photo Archives: Amanaman
01/22/2004 02:13 AMVirtually unheard of in the vintage line, the
Amanaman action
figure is actually a little too large to be the correct scale.
Nonetheless, with it’s ultra accurate sculpt and paint job, not to
mention the staff ‘o heads, today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
is one of the greatest achievements in the entire
Kenner
collection.
Vintage Photo Archives: Bib Fortuna
Vintage Photo Archives: Bib Fortuna
12/02/2003 12:27 AMEven though he lived in a nice house in a neighbourhood pretty close
to the bright center of the galaxy,
Bib Fortuna got
teased a lot when he was in junior high. As if it isn’t awkward enough
for the poor guy to put up with the challenges of puberty whilst
dealing with the fact that he’d never win any beauty contests, today's
addition to the
Vintage
Photo Archive had to deal with having a name that was simply
begging to be used against him. It’s no wonder the young wallflower
grew up to hang out with smelly do-no-gooders with down right silly
names on the planet furthest from.
Vintage Photo Archives: Paploo
Vintage Photo Archives: Paploo
01/01/2004 01:03 AMAlong with his good buddy
Teebo,
Paploo here owned
the
ewok Village… at least according the
Return Of the
Jedi novel. Sadly, for whatever reason, today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo
Archive is represented as nothing g more than a nameless character
in the film. Well, a nameless character who stole a
speeder
Bike and essentially gave the
Rebel Alliance the ability to
deaf the
Evil Galactic Empire that is.
Vintage Photo Archives: Lumat
Vintage Photo Archives: Lumat
01/02/2004 02:23 AMTechnically speaking,
Lumat was the last
figure released as a
Return Of The Jedi figure in North
American. This little scrapper and
Paploo were the only new
figures to see release on the
Return Of The Jedi 79 back card,
which was the last card back before
The Power Of The Force line
debuted. Since today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
is pictured after
Paploo, and he didn’t get to do anything as
cool as scoff a
Speeder Bike, he gets the honour.
Vintage Photo Archives: Teebo
Vintage Photo Archives: Teebo
12/23/2003 01:32 AMIf ever there was a reason to read the
Return Of The Jedi
novel, it would be all the cool bits about
Teebo (and his chum
Paploo). Even though the film leads one to believe that this is
a figure of a background character, nothing could be further from the
truth. Granted, one would have to put aside their views on
Ewoks all together to fully appreciate this portion of the
book, they would find it hard justifying their discontent for these
characters after doing so. In the case of today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
here, he was actually a very well respected member of the tribe and
played a major part in our heroes’ fate. So stop reading this, and
–uh-- read that.
Vintage Photo Archives: Nikto
Vintage Photo Archives: Nikto
12/16/2003 01:56 AMDespite how simplistic the vintage
Nikto figure appears
to be, it is one of the most faithful sculpts to be found in the
Kenner line. As a matter of fact, save the yellow lines that
were on the character’s pants, today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
proves that the people at
Kenner were not only very concerned
with making top quality toys that best represented the film, they
wanted to make toys worthy of the children that they made the toys
for. There is little doubt that
Kenner ‘really did care’ about
more than the bottom line and it showed.
Vintage Photo Archives: C-3PO (Removable

Vintage Photo Archives: C-3PO (Removable

11/11/2003 02:25 AMArguably,
The Empire Strikes Back upped every characters ante,
but none quite so much as the prissy protocol droid. That fact,
coupled with a cool backpack and nifty ‘action’ feature made the
vintage
C-3PO
(Removable limbs) action figure a sought after toy. Not only that,
but retaining the vac-metal finish of the character’s original figure,
today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
was really given a stage to show his quality; and it was golden.
Vintage Photo Archives: Anakin Skywalker
Vintage Photo Archives: Anakin Skywalker
01/16/2004 11:05 AMUnlike the myriad versions we get these days, the vintage line only
had one
Anakin
Skywalker figure (excluding Darth Vader, natch). Still, this one
figure was all that was needed, since the dude didn’t do much in the
Classic Trilogy other than be dead and smile a lot…Thankfully,
today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
fearlessly brought both of those character traits across very well.
Vintage Photo Archives: A-Wing Pilot
Vintage Photo Archives: A-Wing Pilot
01/22/2004 02:13 AMAlong with
Boba Fett, the
A-Wing Pilot
action figure was the only unaltered figure to move from the regular
Kenner figure assortment into the
Droids line. Granted,
that line did have an
A-wing for today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
to pilot, where the regular
Kenner assortment did not…
Vintage Photo Archives: Wicket W.
Warrick
Vintage Photo Archives: Wicket W.
Warrick
12/17/2003 02:43 AMNot since the
Yoda Mania of 1980 had the
Star Wars
Generation been more swelling with ‘cute factor’. That’s right,
Wicket W. Warrick
was more popular with the girls than a weekend long
Felicity
marathon, and why not, he was cute. Thankfully, he also played a huge
part in the downfall of the
Galactic Empire, so guys liked him
too. Back in 1983 there was very little
Ewok bashing, and for
the most part everyone liked them (for those of you reading this who
were around back then, it’s OK to admit that you like them too while
you read this, no one has to know). Matter of fact, keeping that in
perspective, isn’t there another ‘cute’
Star Wars character
getting a hard time? today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
says “Yub yub, mesa like that guy and you should too.”
Vintage Photo Archives: Rancor Keeper
Vintage Photo Archives: Rancor Keeper
12/18/2003 02:17 AMOK, really, what was
Kenner thinking when they decided to make
the
Rancor
Keeper. Lets see, a fat, bald, shirtless old white human with a
stick; yup, sounds like a big draw for boys ages four and up, don’t
it? Needless to say, this is likely the most notable blemish on the
toymaker’s near flawless track record. Nonetheless, today’s addition
to the
Vintage Photo
Archive became the world’s quickest and longest lasting peg
warmer. For that matter, it’s likely the toy responsible for the
phrase.
Vintage Photo Archives: Imperial
Dignitary
Vintage Photo Archives: Imperial
Dignitary
01/09/2004 09:55 PMThe
Imperial
Dignitary is the living testament that the
Emperor was an
impartial employer. Obviously the dictator was hiring these
dignitaries based soling on their resumes and not on their appearance.
Then again,
Palpatine has proven to be a man that loved
theatrics in all their ‘
Look at me, I’m compensating!!!’glory,
so maybe he did hire today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
only because he fell out of the ugly tree…
Vintage Photo Archives: Chief Chirpa
Vintage Photo Archives: Chief Chirpa
12/08/2003 01:11 AMThe vintage
Chief Chirpa
figure, being a little less distinctive than his Ewok companion that
shipped on the
Return Of The Jedi 65 back card, served as the
first example of Kenner’s ingenious new form of army building. Unlike
other figures in the vintage line, today's addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
sported a removable hood, and even though it seemed like nothing more
than a little added detail, which, once additional Ewoks were added to
the line, became a way of creating a huge army simply by switching the
hoods and accessories. When all is said and done, that’s something
2048 possible combinations!
Vintage Photo Archives: Gamorrean Guard
Vintage Photo Archives: Gamorrean Guard
12/04/2003 03:46 AMIt boggles the mind how accurate the vintage
Gamorrean
Guard really is. Even though this figure is a bit out of scale, if
given a modern paint job it could easily fit in with the current line.
A fact more or less proven when today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
here was (sort of) packed out as a new figure in the early Ninties…
For the most part, the sculpt was retooled and used to produce the
Friar Tuck figure from Kenner’s dismal Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves
movie line.
Vintage Photo Archives: ATST Driver
Vintage Photo Archives: ATST Driver
12/24/2003 02:56 AMFunny thing about the image of
Hasbro’s new
Endor Han Solo
in ATST Disguise in the latest issue of
Star Wars Insider
is that he’s wearing the full gear traditionally worn by the
ATST Driver.
Unlike
Return Of The Jedi’s director Richard Marquand, who did
have the time to dress up for his cowboy shots inside the lead
ATST during the filming of the
Battle of Endor sequence,
our boy
Han had a bleeding princess and the entire Rebel fleet
being handed their astromech droids on his mind, so it’s not too
likely he found the time to play dress up. That being said, had he the
time, he’d probably look a lot like today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive.
Vintage Photo Archives: Rebel Commando
Vintage Photo Archives: Rebel Commando
12/03/2003 01:50 AMStrange how
Kenner considered it integral that the
Star
Wars line had two different
Bespin Security Guards for
better army building, yet some how figured that having only one
Rebel Commando
was acceptable for the Trilogy’s final ground battle. Whatever the toy
maker’s reasons were, at least today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
had his trusted pal
Prune Face and no less than eight
Ewoks to help a pitiful little band defeat an entire legion of
the
Emperor’s best troops.
Vintage Photo Archives: Biker Scout
Vintage Photo Archives: Biker Scout
12/02/2003 03:03 AMThe vintage
Biker Scout is
the plastic testament of Lucasfilm’s faultless evolutionary character
design. Even though the traditional Stormtrooper armour still stands
as a cinematic icon, today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo
Archive’s uniform, designed for the Endor sequences of Return Of
The Jedi, did away with all the impracticalities of the original shell
and replaced it with a uniform that could facilitate its wearer with
the ability to effectively protect the interests of the Empire. Not
only was it practical for mounted travel via speeder bikes (or any
other form of transportation), it also offered the one thing the
standard armour didn’t: Flexibility. Granted, the cold weather uniform
offered the same, but who wants to fight rebels in a hot Ewok infested
forest wearing thermal underwear?
Vintage Photo Archives: B-Wing Pilot
Vintage Photo Archives: B-Wing Pilot
12/26/2003 01:47 AMEven though the vintage
B-Wing Pilot is
one of the more rudimentarily sculpted figures in the line, it does
have the distinction of being the very first army-builder rebel pilot.
Therefore, what today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
lacks in dazzle, it quickly makes up for in kitsch novelty, what with
its ability to not only die nameless for the liberation of the galaxy,
but to be doing it whilst hurdling towards the
Death Star at
break-neck speed in a great looking hot rod!

certainly was world-renowned for his keen fashion sense, and shortly
after the battle of Endor went on to becoming the galaxy’s number one
designer of humanoid male active and formal wear. Good thing too,
since today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
couldn’t even fly a Corillian freighter through a Death Star service
tunnel without ripping off a sensor dish…
Vintage Photo Archives: Imperial Gunner
Vintage Photo Archives: Imperial Gunner
01/19/2004 05:04 AMThough not usually the topic of many conversations, the
Imperial
Gunner figure is sculpted after the soldiers who worked the
weapons of the second
death Star and not the first. Eagle-eyed
star Wars fans will note that the guys operating the big laser
in
A new Hope wore large padded chest plates, where the ones in
Return Of The Jedi, just like today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive,
did their evil in non-restrictive black jumpsuits.
Vintage Photo Archives: Admiral Ackbar
Vintage Photo Archives: Admiral Ackbar
11/18/2003 01:24 AMIn 1982, to many young
Star Wars Aficionados, the vintage
Admiral
Ackbar action figure was the first glimpse at what the final film
had in store for them. The card backs offering the Mon Calamari in
exchange of a few small proof of purchases and a couple of dollars,
also brought what everyone thought would be the title to the last
chapter of the
star Wars Saga, until the bearded dude who made
it all up changed his mind. So as a Jedi’s ‘Revenge’ became his
‘Return’, today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
lead us all into the final battle of good vs. evil.

Vintage Photo Archives: Han Solo (Bespin

11/03/2003 02:11 AMTalk about Essential Action figures. Even with the wrong weapon packed
with it, the vintage
Han Solo (Bespin
Outfit) figure is easily the best rendition of the former spice
smuggler. Not only is it completely proportionate –something this
character’s figures have a hard time being-- it’s darn heroically
sculpted. No matter what, this figure, added today to the
Vintage Photo Archive,
couldn’t have been made any better. Maybe that’s why Kenner had to
throw extra gimmicks like material trench coats, big honking
Carbonite slabs, and even *gasp!* the proper weapon with their follow
up Hans…

11/06/2003 06:25 AMFor a dude who was in one scene and didn't even talk, it's truly
surprising that Kenner felt a need to produce a second
Bespin Security
Guard, but clearly their marketing department knew what they were
doing. Though, not as iconic as it's predecessor, today's addition to
the
Vintage Photo
Archive was warmly accepted by everyone buying
star Wars
figures back in the day.

01/07/2004 02:39 PMThe vintage
Han Solo (In
Carbonite Chamber) was certainly a great action figure, and there
are hardly any arguments to prove otherwise. That being said, it’s odd
that today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
didn’t come with a weapon. Sure, one could counter by saying the huge
‘
Carbonite Chamber’ makes up for it, but in truth that was to
make up for the figure’s lack of eyebrows…again.

Vintage Photo Archives: Han Solo (In

12/22/2003 02:09 AMProps to
Kenner for releasing the
Han Solo (In Trench
Coat) action figure a whole year after
Return of The Jedi
hit the theaters. Of course the toymaker could have profited more by
releasing today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
in the film’s first wave, but with
The Empire Strikes Back’s
ambiguous ending, seeing the figure –even if it were blacked out—on a
card back would have destroyed a lot of the film’s suspense. It’s a
shame that
Lucasfilm hadn’t thought of that before cutting and
releasing a trailer for the film that shows the scoundrel fighting on
Endor…

11/17/2003 01:00 AMIt must have been a hard life for the
Imperial TIE Fighter
Pilot. Not only did today’s addition to the
Vintage Photo Archive
have to live without a name (or face for that matter) of his own, he
had to haul butt in a fast moving ball with two huge targets mounted
on its sides and try making it through a battle without the luxury of
shields of any kind. On a plus note, he did get to blow up defending a
giant space orb of evil that, by design, tends to be built
specifically to be inevitably destroyed by upstart rebels...

Power Of The Force figure based on costume or situation that
wasn’t in
Return Of The Jedi. Granted, one could argue the
Han Solo (In Carbonite Chamber) could also fit into that
category, but it wasn’t entirely based exclusively on the events of
the other two films, so it loses out by default; making today’s
addition to the
