Vintage Photo Archives: Luke Skywalker
(Hoth Battle Gear)
11/10/2003 11:26 PM

Though, when compared to the modern line the casual observer may not notice it, but the vintage Luke Skywalker (Hoth Battle Gear) was a giant leap forward for Kenner. The figure sported not only the first vintage equivalent of an action pose; it was sculpted with more detail than any figure before it. Oddly enough, despite the fact that he used one whilst wearing this costume in the film, today’s addition to the Vintage Photo Archive didn't come with his father's Lightsaber. Likely Kenner didn't want to make the perfect Luke before Return Of The Jedi came out...

Hands down, the vintage Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight Outfit) action figure had it going on. Not only was the sculpt dead on, today’s addition to the Vintage Photo Archive came with not one, not two, but three stupid-cool accessories, thus making it the quintessential Luke Skywalker figure in the vintage line.

The Luke Skywalker (Imperial Stormtrooper Outfit) action figure is the only 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 Vintage Photo Archive stand alone in the crowd.

When you're Luke Skywalker, the star of the Original Trilogy Collection, just one figure will not be enough to satisfy demand, especially when you have so many cool outfits to choose from. Today's Photo Archives update features one outfit from each film: the X-Wing Pilot gear, the Bespin Gear, and the outfit of the Jedi Knight. All have been released before, but they have been brought back in special packaging and spiffy new paint applications.

The vintage Leia (Hoth Outfit) action figure was the second lead character Kenner produced in their successful Hoth collection. Though not as well sculpted as the other Leia in The Empire Strikes Back line, this is the figure that best represents the character, since she wore this outfit for most of the film. Check this figure, and a couple of its interesting variations added today to the Vintage Photo Archive.

Unlike 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.

Believe 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


Vintage Photo Archives: 4-LOM 11/14/2003 01:20 AM
Most 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 AM
How 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: Yak Face


Vintage Photo Archives: Yak Face 01/23/2004 03:58 AM
Much 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: Lumat


Vintage Photo Archives: Lumat 01/02/2004 02:23 AM
Technically 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: Nikto


Vintage Photo Archives: Nikto 12/16/2003 01:56 AM
Despite 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: Too-Onebee
(2-1B)
11/04/2003 02:01 AM
Sure the vintage 2-1B action figure was Johnny-on-the-spot whenever a farm boy needed to get some serious plastic surgery or a new bio-mechanic hand, but what has he done for the Rebellion lately? More than you know pal, more than you'll ever know! For instance, whom do you think the Rebels turn to on New Year's Eve for a designated driver? Who do you think shovels the walks on the Hoth base and scrubs the moss of the Ewok suspension bridges on the Forest moon of Endor? That's right, the good old medical droid, that's who. Today’s addition to the Vintage Photo Archive doesn't mind much though, since it keeps the Rebels off his precious collection of medical gurneys.

Vintage Photo Archives: AT-AT Driver


Vintage Photo Archives: AT-AT Driver 10/28/2003 11:09 PM
The 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: Warok


Vintage Photo Archives: Warok 01/12/2004 01:50 AM
One 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: Lobot


Vintage Photo Archives: Lobot 10/31/2003 01:41 AM
Perhaps 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: Pruneface


Vintage Photo Archives: Pruneface 12/10/2003 02:16 AM
Generally 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: Romba


Vintage Photo Archives: Romba 01/08/2004 07:14 PM
Romba 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: Amanaman


Vintage Photo Archives: Amanaman 01/22/2004 02:13 AM
Virtually 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: Klaatu


Vintage Photo Archives: Klaatu 12/09/2003 02:41 AM
The 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: Ugnaught


Vintage Photo Archives: Ugnaught 10/29/2003 02:20 AM
Believe 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: Bib Fortuna


Vintage Photo Archives: Bib Fortuna 12/02/2003 12:27 AM
Even 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 AM
Along 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: Zuckuss


Vintage Photo Archives: Zuckuss 11/13/2003 01:59 AM
Most 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 mixed his and 4-LOM's names up. As a result, to vintage collectors, today’s addition to the Vintage Photo Archive will always be Zuckuss.
