    Catalog Update: STAR WARS (New for '78)

    A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...Mego botched the "Star Wars" license! But what if they hadn't?




    The figures are available in three assortments: Battle on Tatooine, Escape from the Death Star, and Capture of the Princess. In addition, there was a lot of talk of 2-packs throughout the '78 submissions, so there are 3 2-pack assortments as well (double blister carded, 'natch): Light Sabre Duel, The Droids, and Millennium Falcon.

    This would be Mego initial offering (kinda like an Early Bird Special) and vehicles, playsets and more characters would follow later.

    Think of this as a Christmas present 30 years too late...

        This could've been such a cool line, in 1978 I mean. These customs totally ROCK
