• Gravity controlled cockpit
• Spinning Laser Cannons and retractable landing gear
• Opening cockpit for 1 pilot

Force fact:

An interesting addition to the Mini Rigs line as this vehicle is not like anything in the film and very imaginative.

• Rotating cockpit
• 2 Movable Laser Cannons and adjustable rear sail
• Extendable plank that can be retracted to make figures fall over the side

Force fact:
Much like the ISP-6 the Desert Sail Skiff had great play value and was a good prelude to the larger Tatooine Skiff (which was not released until the following year).

• Opening Cockpit holds 2 pilots
• Adjustable wing laser cannons
• Wings automatically move into flying position at the push of a button
• Ramp lowers so Action Figures can come on board
• Rear landing gear is retractable
• Side panels pop off for inside play
• Laser sound and light

Force fact:
Two “AA” batteries not included.

The “EPIC” piece of the ROTJ toy line, released as the big Christmas item for 1984 and it was a stunner. Great toy with great playability. This is the absolute best of ROTJ and second only to the AT-AT among the Vehicles and Playsets.

• Set comes with 3 Figures: Sy Snootles, Max Rebo and Droopy McCool
• Includes Piano, 2 Microphones and Saxophone

Force fact:
There was some debate in my mind as to whether to include these three with the figures or with the Vehicles and Playsets. They do come on an oversized blister card/window box and are figures but in the end I decided they are part of the Boxed items given their packaging and accessories.

Regardless there were three more figures to inhabit Jabba’s domain. As seen in the photo on the package these are the correct, unaltered versions of the trio before the abominable changes of the special, butchered, altered and ruined re-re-re releases of the film.

• Push lever on Rancor’s Back to open his jaw
• Has movable legs and wrists
• Spread spring loaded arms snap back in position

Force fact:
The Rancor Monster was largest Creature released by Kenner from the films. Great toy that is quite movie accurate (for the 1980s) and a great addition to the line.

• Opening Cockpit holds 1 pilot and is gravity controlled
• Rear Engine Pod turns to move Wings into Attack Position
• Retractable landing gear
• Laser sound and light

Force fact:
Two “AA” batteries not included.

The B-Wing was prominent in the movie Return of the Jedi and new to the franchise. Lucas always introduced new Vehicles and environments into his Star Wars films. The B-Wing Fighter was the latest innovation added to the Rebel Alliance’s arsenal.

• Working Crane
• Torture hook/Branding iron holds droids upside down
• Set comes with 3 new figures: Amanaman, EV-9D9 and Barada

Force fact:
This was the last of the Figure included Playsets done by Kenner. This one included 3 of the 1985 POTF Figures for the Christmas holiday. Often referred to as the POTF Dungeon as opposed to the earlier Jabba Dungeon this set was indeed released in ROTJ and does not have the POTF logo. Many collectors do not realize this was a 1984 release set, many months before the POTF line hit stores the following year.

Kenner reused the mold to the base of the previous Dungeon (just changed the color again) to make this toy. Like previous items that included figures this was released early in the line and was, at the time, a Sears exclusive.

• Collector case that holds 10 Star Wars Figures
• Comes with 2 Pouches for accessories and “secret messages” – I have no idea why they included this, desperation maybe
• Can be worn over your shoulder

Force fact:

Well, what can I say. This is the worst of the toys Kenner released. Like they did not have enough carrying cases to begin with they had to make this thing. I have no idea how many sold but I do know from seeing them in the stores that they were on clearance…for years. They were still on the shelves in 1988 and I left them behind and am glad I did even when they were under a $1 each. There were not a few of them left behind but hundreds.

• Collector case that holds 24 Star Wars Figures
• Sticker sheet of the original 65 Figures
• Flip over the 2 cases and they are an excellent display stand!

Force fact:

I think we have seen these toys before. The fifth and final rendition of the Vinyl Action Figure case was this ROTJ version. Much tougher than any others as it was released in much smaller numbers probably due to the fact Kenner also released the Darth Vader case in ROTJ as well as the new C-3PO case and the Chewbacca Bandolier Strap.

This set has red trays.

• Collector case that holds 40 Star Wars Figures
• Sticker sheet of the original 65 Figures
• Special Chamber to store accessories

Force fact:

Though Kenner re-released the Darth Vader case for ROTJ it also came out with the C-3PO case that was all chromed and looked really good in package. Like the Vader case these were marketed to mothers who wanted kids to keep their rooms clean and have all their stuff tidied up. No kid wanted this toy that was the same price as any other thing out this year. Really, a Tie Interceptor or Ewok Village, maybe a Y-Wing or three Speeder Bikes…no a C-3PO case is what I would want. Never happened, mothers and grandmothers only bought these cases.
