    That sucks about the yard sale and your ships. Hopefully some day you will regain them again if you so desire. Those darn yard sales!

      My favorite toy of the Kenner line was easily the Millenium Falcon.
      You have peaked my curiousity. "Some day" I am going to have to get up into the attic and get out all of my vintage Star Wars stuff and see what color my Snaggle Tooth is. I keep reading from time to time about the blue Snaggle Tooth and I am not sure what color mine actually is. For now I will keep my fingers crossed on the color. Wishful thinking.

        I really cannot remember which figure that I got first. I want to think that maybe it was Darth Vader. Then again I think that I got several figures at once for Christmas so I am not really sure if I can classify just one as the first.

        I am not at all into the newer figure line. I more than likely have passed up good figures (to some one other than myself that is) in the stores (on my way to the new G.I. Joes, Hot Wheels) on a regular basis as I no longer even actually look through the Star Wars stuff any more. About as new as I collected before I stopped collecting Star Wars was the Slave Leia. Now she is a keeper! I liked the orange and green backed cards. They were OK, but that is pretty much were I drew the line. I did manage to get a couple of lots on Evil Bay of misc. newer figures and I am not even sure what/who all I have other than some of the newer Storm Troopers. That was the main reason that I bought the lots. That in the fact that they were great deals of course. Other wise I probably would not have bothered bidding. Some day when and if I ever get bored I will try and figure out what figures I actually have.

          The blue one was only available as a packaged Cantina set with Greedo, Walrus Man, and Hammerhead from Sears. He was 3 3/4" and had a blue uniform and silver boots. His skin was a beige color. The standard Snaggletooth had grey skin, a red uniform, no boots, stood about 2" and was actually in Star Wars.

            R2D2 and Yoda. My favourite one now is a little talking R2D2 with flashing lights.

              In that case you just saved me a wasted trip to the attic. Not to mention hours of searching. No doubt. Thanks a bunch. Now I know for sure that I do not have the blue Snaggle Tooth as mine was in a regular issue package and not from the Cantina set.

                I loved them all and i regret selling them years ago because of lack of space for them. My favorite were always Darth Vader, Snow Trooper, Jedi Luke and StormTrooper Luke.
                I am going to have to try to buy them all back some day.

                  I really like your display. Genius! I have all of the figures from Star Wars and Empire Strikes Back in the carrying case.

                  I always thought the Jawas were pretty cool. They were the only figures that came with cloth clothing. The whole hood thing was cool. Take that off and you lose the effect to the figure. Everybody else was in a one-piece get up with a plastic cape. The Stormtroopers were pretty cool. I laugh out loud at the buffed up figures that came out not too long ago. Han and Luke lookin' really ripped.

                  I always wanted to Falcon or the Death Star playset...

                    I reall really liked the cardboard Cantina Playset from SEARS.
                    It came with the 4 cantina aliens including Blue Snag!
                    Still got it!

                        My favorite figure was Leia disguised as the bounty hunter from jedi. Am a sucker for action figures with removable masks.

                            My wife's favorite is Greedo,
                            But she calls him Creedo.
                            I haven't corrected her, it's kinda cute.
