Luke Skywalker (X-Wing Pilot). The first time Kenner made a second version of the same character, and it's a pretty good one! Essential in fact, if you were a child in the 70's and wanted the 'proper' pilot for your X-Wing :-D

I loved the first 12 figures released for Star Wars. They were (to my child's eyes) great likenesses, enormous fun to play with, and allowed me to recreate all the excitement of the best film ever made! I loved them and wasn't really expecting any more, and then the next 8 came along and knocked my socks off! The cantina aliens, the droids and Luke X-Wing Pilot were, if anything, even more exciting to me as a 6 or 7 year old than the first 12 figures! They were a most unexpected, but welcome surprise and I adored them all. I was never quite sure why Luke and Greedo's gun hands had joined fingers and thumbs making a tight oval to cram their guns down into, but at least they couldn't drop them!

Fast forward a decade or four, and here's what I now have. Three variants (I'd love a PBP, but alas don't have one yet), two raised bar China figures and one Hong Kong, or alternatively, 3 different widths of red helmet stripe ;-)

Finally I also got some time to comment on your fantastic post Thanks mate for all the great info and the cool pictures of your variants I agree it is a good figure, it does not look like luke but the good thing is that you can use him just as a rebel pilot because he does not look like luke :lol: I had 2 of them when I was a kid, first I got one that I had not vehicle for so he could not fly but I still played a lot with him later I got the Y-Wing with luke x-wing pilot and r2-d2 so finally I got a vehicle that he could use and now I had 2 pilots :lol: I do not understand why they made his hands joined just like greedo, I must admit I do not like it, the paint on the hands can be damaged because of that :evil: I hope you will soon get a PBP and some other variants :wink:

Ok I found some time to take some pictures of my luke x-wing collection, but the pictures could be better, it was dark and raining outside :roll:

My cardbacks

 

[Pomse2001]

More cardbacks and my coin

 

[Pomse2001]

and my 48 Luke X-wing figures :lol: What I love with this figure is that he does not look like luke in the face so kids could use him as a rebel pilot for the x-wing, snowspeeder and the Y-Wing 8) Also cool that there different face variants for luke x-wing pilot.

Now that's a lot of pilots!... I hope you have an X-Wing for each one to fly? ;-)

Another fabulous army of cardbacks and figures, Lars. As always, thanks for sharing your wonderful collection
