Star Wars

Star Wars Original Collection - 1977-1985

Every saga has a beginning, and for Star Wars mini-figure collectors it was the fourth quarter of 1977, when a small toy company from Cincinnati, Ohio sold us the promise of toys.

The Original Collection mini-figure line - which also included a selection of ships and playsets scaled to the 3 3/4” figures, and twelve Large Size action figures - went on to be shipped world-wide from 1978 to 1985 and were packaged over those years under the titles Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi, and The Power of the Force.
