    What were these called? (Star Wars ripoffs)

      I remember those. I used to have the "Vader" like one as a kid.

      There was a short feature on them at the official SW blog site a few months back.

        Cool. Yeah, I had the Vader one as well. Still have his gun and mechanical arm, which I came across the other day and sparked my interest.

                To me they are a cross between Star Wars, Starroid Raiders and Playmobil.

                      yea, but I think I would've used the TV camera as a rocket launcher....that would've made them a bit more exciting!
