The young Jedi knight mail away and follow up intests me.
I have never seen one for sale or outside of tomart price guides.
Are they rare?
What price tag are we looking at?
These days they are pretty tough. Finding ones with an actual mailing address, I'd say are much rarer. A bunch of the sample ones were sold by a former Kenner employee in the late 90's, so they'd be more common, but still don't show up much.
Where the sales are far and few between it's difficult for me to say a for sure price. Based on previous sales though, I'd probably put it in the range between $200-$400. There was an AFA one fairly recently that I think ended up selling for around $600. I can't remember for sure on that one. The one I have came from the late
Boba Fisher's Collection. It was addressed to someone with the fisher surname on it and then he stuck his own address label on it. It's a fun piece for me with that connection.
For the followup stuff, I kind of wish I hadn't jumped the gun on it. I found the paperwork/cardback in a random auction. I had no idea what it actually was until I received it, but recognized that it was somehow related to the Young Jedi promotion with the design of the rebate coupon. I decided to ask about it and also shared some of that information with another well known collector. Several years later, I found that one with the bag and everything. That same collector beat me in the auction and it will most likely show up in a book that is several years overdue.
I keep hoping another will show up that I will get another shot at. I have all the pieces except the envelope, so I only know of one complete example and then I've seen two more letters and the rebate coupon. The figures with the blacked out POPs aren't as difficult to find. I see a few examples of each pop up from time to time.
I'm throwing all my links at you. :lol: Here's one that goes a little more into the Young Jedi Promo.
