Artoo-Detoo R2-D2
- Droids
- Companion to C-3PO
- Clicking head
- Has Pop-Up Lightsaber
Force fact:
Like C-3PO R2-D2 was an all new sculpt for the character with the same feature seen in the POTF version.


See-Threepio C-3PO
- Droids
- Companion to R2-D2
- Take apart features
Force fact:
The very end of the Kenner Star Wars toy line was released in 1985 with the Droids and Ewoks lines based on the Saturday morning cartoons. Saturday mornings and after school were the primary times for cartoons for the 1970s and 1980s. Lucasfilm tried its hand at this market but fell flat with better results outside the United States than within.
C-3PO was an all new sculpt for the character with the same break apart feature seen in the Removable Limbs C-3PO. All the Droids and Ewoks came with coins like the POTF line.


Yoda the Jedi Master
- The Empire Strikes Back
- 5 1/2 Inch Yoda Quizmaster
- Yoda answers all your questions!
- Ask Yoda a question and turn him upside down to get one of his 20 different answers!
Force fact:
Now this toy is more in scale with the Large Size Action Figures. Yoda is actually more of a statue here but he looks cool with the other figures.
Essentially the Magic 8 Ball gone Jedi this is another interesting Kenner creation. For Christmas in 1981 this was only in the JCPenney catalog but was not an exclusive to my knowledge. Like the Hand Puppet this toy was a one year only release.


Yoda Hand Puppet
- The Empire Strikes Back
- 8 Inch Poseable Hand Puppet
- Yoda can stand unassisted
- You can make Yoda come to life by moving him in various positions
Force fact:
Like the Radio Controlled R2-D2 both of our Yoda entries do not really fall into the Large Size Action Figures but they are here nonetheless.
Here we have the Yoda Hand Puppet which is not quite in scale with the other figures but definitely does not fit the 3 3/4 inch line. Another really cool toy that works very simply and very well. You can position the Puppet to act and look like Yoda from the film. Kenner really was good at making toys of all kinds.


IG-88
- The Empire Strikes Back
- 15 Inch Poseable Action Figure
- Authentically detailed with rifle and pistol
- Has Cartridge belt, articulated head, wrists, arms and hips
Force fact:
IG-88 was the tallest figure and the only one made new for the ESB line.


Ben Kenobi
- Star Wars
- 12 Inch Poseable Action Figure
- Has white gown, black turtleneck and hooded cloak
- Has Yellow Light Saber
Force fact:
Ben was the last of the Star Wars Large Size Action Figures released. Another good figure to round out the 11 Star Wars figures released.


Jawa
- Star Wars
- 8 Inch Poseable Action Figure
- Has removable ammunition belt and hooded cloak
- Has Laser Rifle
Force fact:
Jawa is not the shortest figure as some have suggested but R2-D2 holds that distinction. He does have the smallest package but still a really cool toy. Come to think of it the whole line was exceptionally well done and deserves much more love than they get.


Han Solo
- Star Wars
- 12 Inch Poseable Action Figure
- Authentically styled shirt, pants and vest
- Comes with Laser Pistol, gun belt, removable boots and Rebel Alliance Medal of Honor
Force fact:
An excellent and obviously needed addition to the line. Han is another excellent toy, with a good Harrison Ford look in the face. This doll mold was re-used by Kenner to make the Indiana Jones doll several years later with the only change was they gave him darker hair.


Boba Fett
- Star Wars
- The Empire Strikes Back
- 13 Inch Poseable Action Figure
- Has see-thru viewport lens and clicking pretend range finder in helmet
- Comes with Laser Pistol, utility belt, Wookiee scalps, removable cape and lensatic life support indicator in chest plate
- Articlate head, shoulders, elbows, wrists, knees and hips
Force fact:
The Boba Fett, without any doubt, the finest of the Large Size Action Figures. He is the most articulate, most elaborate and well equipped of the line (even if I have no idea of what the lensatic life support indicator in chest plate even is supposed to be). Fett was the most expensive figure as well and was a major release for the line for Christmas. It was the only one of the Large Size that all three major Department stores included in their Christmas catalogs. Oddly enough it was the only figure also released, in any quantity, in an ESB (The Empire Strikes Back) packaging along with the IG-88. Very tough to find in the ESB box.


Stormtrooper
- Star Wars
- 12 Inch Poseable Action Figure
- Has movable arms, legs and wrists
- Laser rifle can be held or hung on belt
Force fact:
The Stormtrooper was a very cool figure, in scale to the Darth Vader. Every collection should have Darth Vader flanked by a Stormtrooper behind each of his shoulders!
