Not the Hasbro figures, but original action figures from the late 70s and early 80s.

Only one I had was the Gamorrean Guard. My parents were all kinds of fail.

I had this when I was younger. I lost Boba Fett and the whole collection fell apart. I think I gave them all to a younger relative, but I'm not sure.

^ I remember that case.

I had 24 of the originals.

I saved it all in storage to give to my kids one day. They got them a year ago to get ready for a new generation of SW shows.

This is all I have left. I lost my Darth Vader and Luke with the extendable light sabers that come out of their arms. But I still have my Boba Fett; there in the middle.

You should sell some of that lot. Have you seen what those boxed ships bring?

I don't want to know.

My parents gave me the Falcon for my 8th birthday, and I gave it to my oldest son for his 8th.

At the age of six, after a good dentist checkup, my dad took me to see Star Wars at the theater in 1977. Afterwards we went to K-mart and he bought me R2-D2 and C-3PO. They were 50 cents each. I remember it like it was yesterday.

I still have all of my original Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back and Raiders of the Lost Ark trading cards.

The only two I have are Greedo and Hammerhead.

I had one hell of a collection, but I also had a dog that chewed everything she could get ahold of.

I didn't have any
I had Micronauts instead.

BTW,  what does Chewbacca carry in his bandolier? Always wondered that......


Cheers!

I had all the original figurines and ships. I was 8 when IV came out, so I was in the prime demographic for the toys and comic books, which I remember getting at the news stand. I gave all of it away to a neighbor kid when I left home... I almost died when I saw how much that stuff is worth these days...

I'm pretty sure the original action figures were $.99 each at the time...

Edit to add that Chewie's bandolier carried reloads for his bow caster, or at least that what I recall. Wasn't the tibana gas from Bespin what the blasters used? I guess the bandolier held gas cartridges?

Someone please correct me if my memory is in error...

Same here.  Mine are all individually cased and labeled.  Yeah, I'm hardcore.

Definitely 34 of those guys, I had several regular stormtroopers, and a few I swear who aren't in the picture.
All inside the c3po carrying case.

Man- 80's garage sales were the shit.

I had a storm trooper, what looks like to be the "Death squad commander" (hard to read poster, 6th figure on top row of first pic in op), I think a han solo, and a X wing fighter. I think I still have the X-wing (minus lasers) and commander.
