 |  Subject: Classic Kenner 12bk run  Sat Mar 19, 2011 6:34 pm | |
| Even if I grew up with ROTJ and Tri-Logo packages in the stores, I always felt something extra for the classic Kenner SW 12 backs when I started to collect, maybe because of the coolness of the characters combined with the superb design of the package. I´m not into AFA, so basically I have tried to find some decent non-graded Kenner (USA) pieces. I can´t say it´s a hard run to complete, since they all turn-up frequently, but to find nice non-graded examples is a little bit harder. I completed the run early 2009 and I still working with my display and collecting room. Aiming to finish it during this year.

it certainly is the quintessential run & always great to see. The Vader head store display is special too  |

| The Vader is in nice condition too Ive seen a few with the decals missing, they dont look as menacing without the red eyes! |

| I only have 3PO and a Jawa 12-back - man, I'd love to get a few more. They seem so pricey these days on eBay. |

| My childhood was all about 12-backs on the shelves, so this group really hits me square in the forehead. Jaw-dropping excellent collection! |
