Great junkman!!! I have all the origional 12 inch figures, with the boxes complete. I was sad as a kid that they discontinued the line. I collected them all.
It was disappointing that the 2nd series stalled. Nice knowing that the prototypes survived and are treasured by a true Star Wars collector. Thanks Junkman 😎
I had all of the large size figure (except for IG-88 of course) They were really cool as a kid. It is too bad we never got more. Those prototypes look awesome. Thanks for sharing this video with us, By the way, I just got back home yesterday after spending 11 weeks in the hospital due to influenza. I still have weak arms and legs but I am recovered enough to be on my own. I have a ton of videos to catch up on.
yoda, snowtrooper, hoth rebel.... luckily, the POTF2 12" line was pretty extensive and very nice, not skipping over that much. shoo, we even got a biker scout, wampa, dewback, and tauntaun out of it!
I never had these 12inch figures back in the day, but they really did nail the head sculps & now I think I need to look for some. Great info vid Junkman. Cheers🍻👍
Weird that The Empire Strikes Back figures were practically ready, but all we got was IG-88. I did not know about the electronic Boba Fett. That should have been released, dare I say, instead of IG-88. Kenner could have at least planned to paint Boba Fett correctly.
Have you reviewed that Alien xenomorph you have lurking back there in your amazing collection? I had a Large Luke, Chewbacca, Darth Vader, and an R2, they were neat toys. Thank you.
I thought that last Luke suit looked cool. While it did not look like any thing Luke would wear, it did look like a great background character. Like a technician/mechanic in the rebel base, or a guy in the Moss Eisley cantina, or around the star port. Even in WEG's RPG books.
Well Hasbro is now into the retro stuff So why not Do the whole thing? Retro boxes all the way around. Leia 12" this time around should have a blaster Not a brush.
those figs were very nice, i have many. after i stopped collecting them is when they came out with the *really* good stuff. figures, lol. i highly doubt we'll get that kind of stuff again, e.g. the sandtrooper and dewback at a 12" scale, at regular retail ever again.
That Skywalker “ Suit “ looks like the new animatronic in Disney’s Galaxy’s Edge...the made up character...Lol.. And as far as the 12” figures, I thought they were crap as a kid, and still feel that way 40+ years later..Star Wars barbies..Ha... Cheers, JM
Leias going on a ski trip and lukes going to a buck Rodgers convention followed by an 80s disco landos going to be host of the 80 disco dance competition r2s bring the drinks han solo will be joining up with leia on the slopes
3:00 I did mange to get my hands on a Princess Leia when I was a child... The biggest issue was Those Buns!!! Maybe Girls would have been able to do more, But the Hair was so stiff that if you took the Buns out - You pretty much had screwed the entire look... The hair was NOT GOOD!!! ( I got it at a Boot Sale, Sadly it was the only one available!!! And me being me - It Quickly got destroyed too! Sorry!!) 3:47 That looks like a design from the Marvel Comics...
Never saw these! SO COOL!!!

That first Lando pic you showed , Looked like Wesley Snipes, LOL
As always thank you Junkman for all the Awesome constant content! Love the Kenner shirt!
Great work Junkman!
Those are great pix junkman. Those were some great outfits. Maybe inspiration for modern versions.
It was disappointing that the 2nd series stalled. Nice knowing that the prototypes survived and are treasured by a true Star Wars collector. Thanks Junkman 😎
Another great vid, Junkman. Thanks.
great video, keep them coming junkman
This is some really fascinating stuff.
I would have loved to own that Luke and Leia in Bespin and those vintage boxes....oh, my, my, my, love them.
there's always customizing
It seems like a hoth trooper rebel and Storm trooper, Ugnaut and Lobot would have been a focus too. Just to get the waves going.
Wow never knew about this
Good. I keep putting the video of thing everyone knew of it
I think Princess Leia's Arctic Outfit looks fly as hell...seriously I really dig that...💯✔
She looks like some rich teenager on a ski vacation here on Earth, lol!

That boba Fett was badass.
Those are awesome figures.
Can you imagine the 12 inch scale death star. They could have just repainted a Barbie dream house.
Great figures never knew o them until now!! Thanks for sharing bro !!
That last outfit of Luke's ... ??? Rebel supertech? Imperial spy? Hyperdrive repairman?
Earth dude hanging around town!
I never had these 12inch figures back in the day, but they really did nail the head sculps & now I think I need to look for some. Great info vid Junkman. Cheers🍻👍
I have to disagree on the "Suit" Luke not looking like something out of Star Wars. That outfit honestly reminds me of something from Episode I.
Nice show! Thanks for the look at those figures and the boxes they would have come in. Some outfits, huh?
I would’ve liked to have had that Luke Bespin.
Luke Bespin would have sold for sure.

Kind of. I did it and used 28 seconds of music and it got pulled off and lost for ever.
@@ThatJunkman Darn, that figure is so cool. Super 7 has reissue versions of them and they are pricey. Thank you for the response.
I had Darth Vader with the long cape and saber. He was awesome and gave me many years of play value. I had R2D2 as well.
Jabba is SERIOUSLY hogging that arcade cab!!
He is playing 2 at once. Jabba got skills
@@ThatJunkman poor han needs to get his coin down.

Man, time was not kind to that second Lando prototype's cape and shirt. I think I see a loose thread on his pants, too.
Maybe an Empire Strikes Back C3PO?
Still not over having to sell my Han, Chewbacca and Luke when I was out of work. Would have loved having that Bespin Luke or Hoth Han!
The person in the thumbnail and at 3:38 looks like Emmet Brown From Back To The Future Part II
Nice!
Jabba the Hutt is a BEAST at Pac Man!!!
The 12 inch was the Barbie line ...I remember grandma got me Chewbacca..he was cool ..but wasn't cool like the 3.75 inch figures_
Why is Artic Leia standing in the middle of the desert?
Haslab should make a star destroyer like the GI Joe USA flag that big battle ship a star destroyer would be pretty cool I think
that would be pretty damn cool
What episode of Charlies Angels was that Liea in flight suit from?
Well Hasbro is now into the retro stuff So why not Do the whole thing? Retro boxes all the way around. Leia 12" this time around should have a blaster Not a brush.
I had the 90’s 12” Han Solo.

Reley varrey interesting
Why didn't they at least sell the clothes for the next film. I don't get it.
I want Bespin Luke!
Leias going on a ski trip and lukes going to a buck Rodgers convention followed by an 80s disco landos going to be host of the 80 disco dance competition r2s bring the drinks han solo will be joining up with leia on the slopes
What's up nice vid

there are a lot of tutorials on how to put her hair back right, but it looks like a huge hassle.
No snow trooper....80's me would have been disappointed....oh wait....now, I'm sad. My sister got Luke and Leia....I got a Stormtrooper, and a Jawa.
This should be called large scale it’s not all 12 inch
It’s called Large Size. That’s the official name
That Junkman had to be just I bit bigger than gi joe
🤩👍
First 😁
