Hoth Ice Planet Adventure Set:

The 'Hoth Ice Planet Adventure Set'... adventure my ass! This is Kenner cheaping out and blatantly recycling the Land of the Jawas playset and hoping they could flog the same toy again to kids who were really wanting an AT-AT (which hadn't been released yet at that point). If the LOTJ hadn't already been released, this could have been an OK toy, but the knowledge that it's the most flagrant double-selling in the whole world rather tarnishes this playset in my eyes. Don't get me wrong, it's good to own one, but let's be honest here... it's not a good toy.

Anyway, here's mine:

Excellent description, Jeremy. I always enjoy the hints you put in your file names as to what you think of the toy.

Anyway, here's my signature table shot of this set.

Thanks mate for the kind words, yes I have the insert but the box could be better. The box you have looks a lot better than mine

Fantastic set that you have. Do you know if the esb kenner box was the only box that was made for this set or is there also other box variants ?
