A while ago I posted a story about what could probably be described as the least fun Star Wars action figure around. Since I’m an original fan (having seen Star Wars no fewer than 6 times in 1977) I thought I should try to bring you a few more Star Wars collectibles for your enjoyment.

The first one is perfect for the Star Wars collector that has just about every action figure ever made. Yes, it’s a little known fact that Kenner came out with The Force action figure in early 1978. Like The Force, the Kenner version is an energy field that surrounds and penetrates all living things in the universe, and it’s a most valuable addition to your collection if still in the original packaging.

As every Star Wars geek knows, however, The Force comes in two distinct flavors. The Dark Side is known to have caused Anakin Skywalker to become the evil Sith Lord, Darth Vader - and Kenner is said to have released a limited production run of 128 Dark Sides between August and October 1978. I had two of these - both in mint condition, but I couldn’t resist temptation, so I opened one. Other than being disturbed by other’s lack of faith, I thought it worked out quite well.

Let me know if you see any other cool Star Wars toys, and I’ll keep you posted if I find more too!
