A collection by the Force.

The production of Star Wars action figures are common in toy lines Disney, Hasbro, and Kenner. Kenner released the very first Star Wars action figures in 1978 as part of the mail-away Star Wars Early Bird Kit, which contained Star Wars figures of Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Chewbacca and R2-D2. In 1985, the last action figures were released during also the released of the Power of the Force series and after a ten years break, Hasbro started to release Star Wars action figures again in 1995.

Contemporary producers like Disney started then to make a 6.5”- 11” action figures that is being distributed all over the world.

Vintage Star Wars action figures produced by Kenners have a height of 3.75” including droids and yes, Yoda. The Droid Factory playset from 1979 was the very first build-a-droid set ever released.

Hasbro and Disney turned to this very same concept many years later, predominantly during the 2008 The Legacy Collection and the 2012 Disney Park exclusive Build-A-Droid series, where they released various action figure parts which could be assembled to a full droid.

The release of Zuckuss by Kenner was one of the oddities in vintage collection when they named him 4-LOM but 4-LOM was named Zuckuss in the packaging.

Though the vintage collection debuted on April 3rd, 2010 with a German Jedi-Con exclusive convention 2-pack, which featured Bounty Hunters 4-Lom and Zuckuss, which was released by Hasbro who paid the same tribute like Kenners. The Power Of The Force series contained the last 17 figures figures which were based on a Star Wars movie during vintage times.

After that Kenner’s focus moved on to the animated Droids and animated Ewoks toy lines. One of the harder to get figures from the the last 17 is Yakface, which was never released in the United States.

In the summer of 2015, Disney released their own Star Wars action figure lines, the Disney Elite Die Cast action figures which was exclusively available through the Disney Store and each action figure is hand-painted and carefully crafted by Disney artists to ensure that every detail of a character is captured.

The figures are made out of metal with additional plastic parts and stands about 6.5” tall which was then sold at Disney’s D23 convention on August 14, 2015 in Anaheim, CA and were limited to 500 pieces only.
