Vintage Figures # 23 - Star Destroyer Commander and Imperial Commander




Imperial Commander is amongst the first of the figures that I can remember having.
Others, from what I recall, are Leia Hoth and Han Hoth, Luke farmboy, and Chewbacca.
Imperial Commander is showing considerable paint loss to his cap.
Have both weapons.

Vintage Figures # 22 - Snaggletooth and Walrus Man




Both weapons suffering some paint loss to hands and feet.
Still have weapons.
In my opinion, this version of Snaggletooth is far better than the rare blue Sears one.

Vintage Figures # 21 - Bib Fortuna and Gamorrean Guard




Whilst Bib Fortuna is in excllent condition, Gamorrean Guard has paint wear to horns, tusks, and sandals.
Have weapons. Gamorrean Guard's axe was always a brutal weapon to be played with as a young kid.

Vintage Figures # 20 - Hammerhead and Greedo




Both figures in good condition with weapons.
I remember the Cantina scene as a boy but, at the time, was confused as to why these toys along with Walrus Man were so unlike the characters in the film.
I guess that's what happens when Palitoy only had reference photos of their heads to cast a figure from.

Vintage Figures # 19 - Lobot and Cloud Car Pilot




Lobot has a chunk broken of the rear to the shoulder area. Can't recall how that came about...otherwise in good condition.
Much like my broken Bossk figure, I may be looking to buy another Lobot.
Cloud Car Pilot has some yellowing to his limbs and some minor paint wear to his gun holster, but still in good condition. Have all weapons.

Vintage Figures # 18 - Weequay



I ended up buying two Weqquay figures.
One of the best scenes from Return of the Jedi featured this character on board the Skiff.
Both figures have paint loss to the hands.
Have their weapons.

Vintage Figures # 17 - Princess Leia and Leia Hoth Battle Gear




Both figures in good condition.
Have misplaced Leia's white vinyl cape, but have both weapons.
