Polish "original" Bootlegs were thought to have been made on a carded headed bag type effort similar to the Mexican bootlegs that have surfaced. Not one example has been found with the header or bagged thus so far so it cannot be proven. Polish Original Bootlegs are some very tough figures to locate.
First Generation Figure, i.e the FIRST ones to be released with multiple or same limb jobs (mostly Biker Scout) were on the Polish equivalent of the tri-logo card. The Card simply read Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi in Polish. These have been traced back to a factory and company who named themselves "Elektrospoldzielnia" and are quite sought after now, I reckon one could fetch £500-1000 if in good nick.
Polish Unarticulated figures (the ones pictures in this thread with the ewoks etc) where thought to have been sold in bins, i.e pic em out as you want them style, none had any packaging etc you get the drift. These figures turn up in lots of different colours and are related back to probably just after the 1st generation time. Interestingly enough these figures are cast from the Polish first gen figures of that time as some still have the biker scout arms from the 1st gen knock offs.
These are really all I count to be vintage figures, second gen, third gen appeared in the 90's, some might say they appeared on card, some might not have done, who knows, these aren't vintage so i'm not really fussed about them any more.
