Old Catalog Pages from Plaid Stallions

Plaid Stallions is a website and blog that chronicles the 70's through the pages of old catalog pages.  Of course, there are some great Star Wars catalogs showcased there... here's a nice page from Kenner's Catalog debuting the original Star Wars Action Figures:


If you were a kid under ten in the late seventies you were witness to one of the biggest phenoms the toy industry had seen, the Kenner Star Wars line. Even though it was late for Christmas, Kenner came out with both barrels the following year utilizing their master toy license to the maximum with pages of product that made my eight year old heart flutter.

  2. even though i was born in '82, i have a lot of those very action figures. my cousins gave them to me. some were even still in the box (they must have bough duplicates), and on the back of the package it gave you the list of all the other characters to buy. god, i loved those. thanks for sharing.
