SWTOTW, Week 22, 2018, Part 1/2 Hoth Wampa

[Pomse2001]

Hoth Wampa:

The only beast I had when I was a kid in the good old 80s :lol: I bought it from my neighbor, he was a few years older than me and was to old to play with him :lol: unfortunately I ****ed up in the early 00 and put most of my star wars toy together with all my other star wars items that I had bought from collectors or ebay so I am not sure about if my childhood wampa is between the ones I have or I have sold it :roll:

ok here is my little wampa collection.

2 boxes and 3 wampa, 1 wampa still need a box

Great Wampas, Lars!

I always thought Kenner dropped the ball with the Wampa. It doesn't look anywhere near scary enough! I know it's a kids toy, but the face sculpt they gave the Wampa simply makes him look confused and bewildered, not frightening and dangerous!

Anyway, here's mine:

thanks for the kind words again

Wow a palitoy wampa, that box is so cool, love it I agree the face does not look scary, but I have never thought about it before now :lol:

Thanks. Yes it is a clean one. I'm not sure how much it's been played with by its previous owners, but it was obviously well looked after

Thanks. Palitoy boxed stuff will always be my favourite :-D

Very nice Wampas on here the Palitoy is nice and you don't see many ROTJ or rebate wampas in the UK

And here's a regular Kenner to make the set? Are there any more, Ledy perhaps?

I wonder if any Forum members will post a picture of the 1st issue Kenner box with the Rebel Commander standing in for Luke?

I don't think I have seen that one, but it sounds like a cool variant, thanks for sharing the info about such a box I hope some on the forum have one in their collection that they will share in the thread

No the black one was just made for fun. I think it was some collectors on tig that made one :lol:

 

[Cardbackkid]

Oh lol

 

[spoons]

First issue Kenner is a good shout and yes a lot of people think the black Wampa is real :lol:

Here's mine.

It's a yellow Wampa, but the box is fairly mint and I still have the cardboard insert.
COO (c) Lucasfilm 1981 Made in Hong Kong
It still has a good arm 'action'. The legs seem to be a different grade of plastic and haven't yellowed as much (not really visible in the photo).

Not sure where I purchased it (I might have sent away for it to a catalogue store based on the sticker).

Not sure if they constantly improved or updated the Wampa - are there mould or figure variants (apart from the Black one :wink: ).
