Those are awesome Soren!

I think any kind of distribution /translation stickers that narrow a toy down to a specific country is a great item, I can't believe you have so many !

Chief-mattias is Mattias Rendahl from RS, I can drop him a line to this thread maybe he will sign up and give some more insight or some of his own examples if you want ?

Thanks Joe

Yes it is cool with things that are a little special . I might do another with Danish stickers

It would be nice to get Mattias to post some info and his pix here. As i said some of the info comes from looking at his web photos.
So please do so Joe

Hi Soren,

Wow, that's a very interesting collection you got there, thanks for sharing dude!
Swedish companies apparently like to stick to the colours of their national banner. Can't blame them, this orange/yellow is a perfect fit with the vintage boxes. It also reminds me of the yellow used on the >45 cardbacks.

Were there also labels with the name of the swedish toys importer, like you see on the white label on the back of Italian MOCs?

Hi Dr D

Thanks for the kind words. I have never thougt about the color as Swedish and when you see the stickers IRL they ar not the color of the Swedish flag.

I have never seen any company stickers on boxes or Moc's . A have a few moc's i brougt in Sweden back in the days and the look like any other moc's

But i have an MOTU poster where the company Scanditoys are on it.

Yes, Michael Playmix / Scanditoy / Brio is /was the same company

Thanks Roger
And welcome to TIG . You have contributed some nice info thanks . And that in your only second post .

Soren

Nice information Roger

This stuff is very niche but also very cool - I like how people from each country SW was available in are naturally drawn to pieces that originated in their home country Its very patriotic

Great Collection you have here

Thanks mate

Soren, I love seeing all these vehicles with Swedish stickers in one thread.

I hope you can continue to find more.

"I have found out that some of you guys don't know about the little stickers that it seamed to have been put on all vintage Star Wars boxed items sold in Sweden back in the days"
I certainly had no idea about them. It's really neat to see them. Were there any MOCs that got a similar 'treatment' ?

Thanks guys . They are very hard to track down and go for high prices when they pop up.
Al most all of the ones i have comes from my child hood collection.

James : I have never seen any stickers on Swedish moc's . I think the main reason is that you could see what was in them. You could mot see that in the boxed suff and they offen pictured the vicheles with figures in them that where not in the box.

So the stickers where just to let people know that they only got the vicheles and not the figures.

Gets me to wonder what kind of sticker they would have put on boxes with figures included But i don't think any of those where sold in Sweden.

I still hope to get some free time to do a little special on Danish price tags on Cardbacks and boxes . And our new member pomse2001 who also is from Denmark , has a nice colletion with danish stickers on them . That im trying to lure into doing a post with me about them aswell

Hi Soren, great thread and congrats on having so many nice items with the Swedish stickers. First time I've seen this.
