OT : What Star Wars Figure Is This?

In light of the thread last week regarding the SNES game which SOLD for £8300 I have been advertising all my old Star Wars figures from the 70's.

I'm stuck on this fella - can anyone tell me who this is? I can't find it anywhere on the net and my son and I have been looking for the past hour and we are all Star Wars'd out.

Thanks in advance

Good try - but they were black. I think this is one of the Good Guys and not a baddie (that makes me feel like I'm 10 again.. lol)

He's got 2 dirty great Imperial symbols on his helmet... of course he's a baddie! (Am I the only one Star Wars geek enough to see that! )

Definately an At-At pilot. Atleast I haven't forgotten all my Star Wars knowledge!

So out f interest how are they selling?

About 15 years ago a freind of mine sold all of his Star Wars figures for cheap when we were in school. About 5 years later all the excitment for the new star Wars films come up and the demand for original 70s stuff shot through the roof. He could of made thousands on the amount of stuff he had.

If I knew now back then I would off looked after my mellinium Falcon and 4-legged ATAT. Mind you, I was spoilt when I was a kid and had all the iconic toys. I trashed the lot of them. Ungreatful little ba$tard!





Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

In my limited knowledge of selling retro toys from the 70's, if you haven't got the box, instructions and cardboard inserts, they're not worth very much (obviously)

TBH it seems the cardboard is worth about the same as the toys.

I didn't know this, but there were 2 makes of star wars toy - Kenner and Palitoy. The Palitoy ones seem to fetch more.

To give you some idea of the crazyness out there, I sold the cardboard backing of the Boba Fett figure - just the card, no toy for £5 - which I think is nuts for a piece of card.

You're not going to retire off it, but i've covered the cost of the IVA + retest no problem. And everything sold !

I have managed to find an absolute gem in the attic though. The Beano Comic Edition 1 - July 30th 1938. Oh yes !!! and boy does it stink
If that fella managed to get £8300 for his SNES Mario game, I wonder how much this is worth???
