[QUOTE="Mwak73, post: 549971, member: 13334"] Hello. Would anyone know how available..... Back in the day, when they first emerged..... That collector cases were, in this country? I'm talking in the 70s and 80s. I'm not after any nowadays, as I'm not a collector, but I am interested in reading about the original star wars range, and getting to know the details of releases back then. It's purely nostalgic - it's nice to immerse myself back into my childhood, without the ridiculous home-wrecking expense of actually buying everything again 😁 But whereas I can find information online, about most of the toys - the vehicles, playsets and figures - and which were on sale here, and which weren't, back then.....I can find nothing regarding the collectors cases. I'm talking the whole range .... Those little ones that looked like lunch boxes with the picture on the front, plus the ones shaped like c3po and Darth Vader, plus also, that one that looked like a rifle. The most I've been able to discern, is that you could, as part of the palitoy "bounty Hunter offer, send off for a Vader case. But nothing on whether any cases were released in large numbers on the shelves to buy (without simply being occasional imports...I mean fully stocked supply). My logic says of course, they must have been available, but I can find naff all to say so. Palitoy records dont mention them. Any knowledgeable souls out there? [/QUOTE]
