Palitoy ROTJ card back query

[Lee77]

Hi guys. Been trying to put a Rotj run together, on Palitoy when I can, but there's a few things bugging me. So far, am I right in thinking that the 45 backs are figures from ESB and the 65 backs are the ROTJ figures? If so, where do the extra 12 figures on Kenner 77 backs come in to it? Are they Kenner carded only and not available on Palitoy?
Sorry if it's a daft question but it's been bugging me for a little while!
Thanks
Lee

Thanks James, I thought I might have got flamed for it being a stupid question!
On those tri logos there's still only 70 figures shown. Did they just not get round to doing card backs with the other 7 and then the last 17 on?

Hey Lee,

As well as Jason's great site I wrote a small article on the Trilogo cardback here: http://trilogo.info/features/collect-all-70/

You are correct the back was never updated to include the POTF figures, this was actually (IMO) a really bad idea because when the new wave came in most of Europe were scratching their heads when they saw them on the pegs in toy stores.

What way can you make sure a dying toy line succeeds in going six feet under? Release a bunch more figure without advertising them!!
