Force fact:
Sixth and final of the Bounty Hunters released by Kenner. Actually he is the last of the Empire figures period. Some confusion has existed as Kenner reversed his name with the Zuckuss Bounty Hunter. In later years and the newer toys this figure is now called Zuckuss. Kenner made up his name like many of the background characters. His name was a play on both his profession as a Bounty Hunter and the incredible sales of the toys. 4-LOM is an acronym “for the love of money.” He is first released carded on the 48 Back but was a mail away offer on the back of the 47 Backs.

Variations: No major variations of this figure.
