palitoy DT figures?

[edd_jedi]

looking at this cardback got me thinking:

http://www.palitoy.org/cardback/pics/palit12a_bk.jpg

it shows the instructions of how to operate a double telescoping sabre, but i've never seen a palitoy carded DT figure. does anyone know if they were available early on, or even better if any are still around today?

I don't think so. :?

I'm fairly sure my old Kenner Luke 12 back which came with a standard saber had that style cardback so they probably had some left over and they weren't sure how popular the figures would be !! :lol:

That would be the definitive palitoy MOC Holy Grail if one were found. There was a vinyl caped jawa palitoy 12 back that got sold for 6 grand a few years back, though some poeple have cast doubt on wether it's genuine.

Thats a very interesting card back with those instructions, never seen that before.

does anyone remember having a DT figure as a kid? i only came into the toys during the mid 80's so didn't even know they existed until i started collecting.

They weren't released in this country IMO !! :wink:

Not at all, nor a VC Jawa or Blue Snag.
