Hey Monkeyfamily! Which other vintage Kenner SW figures are essential for my collection? I don't have an R2D2 so that's going on the list! Gonna be difficult to find one with good chrome and clean stickers! Thanks for watching, everybody! 👍🐵
Howdy Monkeyboy! God, this episode hit me like a ton of bricks because I had every single one of those buggers over forty years ago! My favorite amongst them is definitely Logray for the exact same reasons you like him. I don't remember if I seen you with him, but if not, you might want to try picking up an Anakin Skywalker from '84 or '85, the one that was originally a mail away figure; I say this because it is Sebastian Shaw and not Hayden Christiansen (and of curse this Anakin was not made as a Force ghost but rather a solid, "living" figure as it were). Another one to maybe get is the Han Solo (without his Hoth jacket) that also comes with him in carbonite. I never had him but always wanted one, although I had Slave 1 that came with a Han in carbonite. The trick here is that the frozen Hans (or "Solo-pops") are not in the same poses; the Slave 1 version is just like he was in Empire/Jedi, but the Power of the Force version actually has him still in those handcuffs/binders. In the nineties Kenner did another mold version of the POTF version, but still, nothing like the originals, eh? Anyway these are the only two that come to mind, mostly because my memory is running on fumes at the moment.
@alexjames7670 Great comment Alex! Good call on the figure suggestions. I'd like a vintage Han carbonite. I think I have the POTF version but I don't remember the cuffs. I will have to rummage in my POTF box and check if I have it. "Solo Pops" 😅😅 Thanks for watching dude, have a tremendous week! 👍🐵
@@MonkeyboysToys Thank you Monkeyboy and I'm glad I could offer up a good suggestion as well as the popsicle joke🥶. Take care and have a positively splendid week!👍🐒
Although it's not a real vintage Kenner SW figure, I highly recommended getting Stan Solo's custom Kenner Style Return Of The Jedi Slave Girl Princess Leia figure. She makes a Jabba's Palace classic Kenner display a bit more complete.
@TimHayes Yeah, that is a nice figure! I wish Kenner had produced one back in the day. I'm sure it would've flown off the pegs! Thanks for watching dude! 👍🐵
Haha that's true. I'm going back to my roots a little bit. Not sure how many more I will get, but I'm pretty happy with the small collection I have at the moment. I will pick up some more here and there no doubt. Thanks for watching Seth! Have a groovy week! 👍🐵
Thanks for watching, Andrew! The first six figures were a very kind gift and I was very pleased to add them to the collection. It seems that the Han Solo is indeed missing the red stripes from his legs but it is strange that his shirt is not worn at all given that the figure is 47 years old! Thanks again, have a groovy week sir! 👍🐵
Thanks again for your kindness, I love the figures and I'm really happy to add them to my growing collection! Your generosity is gratefully received sir! 👍🐵
Yes it was very kind of Matt to gift the figures. I only have about 30 of the original Kenner line but these really help me on the way to a respectable collection! Yes, check out Matt's channel! Thanks for watching, dude! 👍🐵
A really nice selection of figures you got there, nice one 👍🏻. It took me about three decades to discover that Prune Face was one of the good guys as I had just assumed he was part of Jabba’s crew.
Yes it was very kind of Matt to gift me the figures and I'm very happy that my vintage Kenner collection is growing. I think most of us were guilty of making the same assumption about Prune Face. Poor chap, being discriminated against for all these years. Thanks for watching dude! 👍🐵
Yes, I think we were guilty of assuming that ugly bastards were bad guys. Poor Prune Face. Not only did he have pink eye, he was also judged for his appearance. 🐵
Great selection of figures MB and very generous of Matt. So you won't be army building the one figure that is the perfect army builder, but Squidhead and leia Boosh on the other hand....... 😂 I alway thought Prune face was a bad guy, in fact he was always the antagonist to my trench coat Han at play time. Vintage big head Han, yes you are right he normally has red stripes on his legs, maybe you have a variant? I only say that as normally these figures suffer from paint rub on the white shirt and your one looks perfect. I'm also not bothered about getting all the figures, just the ones I had as a kid.
Haha yeah it's bonkers isn't it? I have 103 Bib Fortunas, loads of Squid Heads, lots of Lando Skiff Guard and Leia Boushh, ...and two stormtroopers. I have a few snow troopers and biker scouts though. When I was young I also thought that Prune face was a bad guy, I mean he looks like an evil henchman. I think the red stripes on my Han have worn off because I can see tiny flecks of red in the outside knee creases. It is weird that his shirt isn't rubbed at all. I don't know if it bothers me enough to find another example but I remain open to the possibility. Thanks for watching dude 🙏🐵
What is not to like? Vintage Star Wars figures ❤ Just picking up the odd figure here and there, you'll soon have them all (maybe except for the last 17!)
That will indeed be my strategy going forward! I'm getting there one figure at a time (or nine in this case)! Thanks for watching, Dez! Appreciate the comment sir. 👍🐵
It was very kind of Matt to gift me the figures and I like the fact that they have been played with and received lots of love but are in good condition. The floppy arms on the rebel trooper are fun when I wave him about. He seems very excited 😊
A bird shat on me yesterday. If I don't experience good fortune I'm going to write a letter of complaint to that bird. Flying about pooing on people willy nilly is bloody outrageous.
Good day buddy. Nice look at vintage SW figures. If I remember rightly, the name Klaatu came from 'The Day the Earth Stood Still' along with the names of the other skiff guards, Barada and Niktu. Pruneface always looked a bit of a baddie. According to Robot Chicken, he was only there to fix the photocopier 😂 Haven't held a Scout Trooper since I was a kid, but I remember they felt good in the hand, a bit bulkier than the average figure. My Stormtrooper was ruined when he got grass stains.... Great vid, thanks buddy.
Nice! Coming in hot with some quality trivia there! I did not know the origins of the skiff guard names so that's a fun fact to know! Yes, the biker scout is a cool figure, he was always one of my favourites despite the goofy way he sits on the speeder bike with his legs pointing forwards. Thanks for checking out the video and leaving a great comment! Have a splendid week! 👍🐵
Haha well I'm getting there slowly. I have some key figures but still missing about 20 or so essentials I reckon. Hope you're having a great holiday dude! 👍🐵
I quite like Logray. He was the second Star Wars figure I had (after Chewbacca) and I have quite fond memories of him. The third figure I got was Chief Chirpa, so there was a a bit of a teddy theme going on in the toy box that I didn't realise at the time. The Black Series ewok figures give me very nostalgic feelings. Nice collection, mate. Have a good week 👍
Thanks for the comment, Stephen! I was never a huge Ewok fan but I couldn't have a vintage collection without at least a couple. I would like to get Wicket at some point. I have a black series ewok on a speeder bike from the Endor box set which is quite amusing. Despite not being a fan of the murder bears, my cat is named Ewok despite being a feline and not a member of the bear family. Cheers for watching sir! 🙏🙏🐵
Yeah, the ewoks do seem to divide opinion. Have you seen After Endor? It's a fan made film set after ROTJ, which shows the ewoks to be quite creepy. The Elevator is another one that's quite funny. Fan made Star Wars is better than official Star Wars these days 😂
@stephengray8374 Thanks man, I will have to check those fan films out! I have a free afternoon so that will give me something to look at with my visual sensory organs!

Hi Countless bird! Kenner Star Wars figures; They never get old. 😀

Excellent gifts and awesome pick ups 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Yes it was most kind of Matt to donate these figures to the collection!
Thank you for watching dude!
👍🐵
Mr. Hippo is always quality. Nice pick-ups. That Han Solo is in great shape for his age. Toys are fun. Hope you have a great week. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching, Andrew!

Lovely gifts mate, don’t know Matt’s channel so I’ll have to give it a look, thanks for sharing dude 👍

@@MonkeyboysToys 👍🏻
Think alot of kids did I know I did think he was a bad guy
Same here. Were we being racist/alienist for assuming Prune-like Face was a bad guy as children?
Yes, I think we were guilty of assuming that ugly bastards were bad guys. Poor Prune Face. Not only did he have pink eye, he was also judged for his appearance.

Great video, Mr Monkeyboy. I'm off to count the birds in the garden. I shall probably lose count again.
A bird shat on me yesterday. If I don't experience good fortune I'm going to write a letter of complaint to that bird. Flying about pooing on people willy nilly is bloody outrageous.
