The Vintage Saga Collection
« on: July 08, 2009, 07:34:31 AM »
I was wondering if anyone has a complete list of the vintage Star Wars Saga figures.

This is the set they put in the hard plastic protectors and released about 4 at a time, I am not sure I am classifying these correctly but I found a Bespin Luke the other day at K-Mart and it wouldn't scan and when the girl punched in the UPC it came up as $3.00, if I remember correctly these were around $10.00 a piece, at $3.00 I am a buyer.

Any information would be very helpful.

Cool that was extremely helpful, I think I am only missing like 2 or 3 of these.

My collection is so huge it's crazy, I have an entire storage unit full of stuff......

Lucky find there at $3. The Endor Leia got down pretty low around here, but never saw the rest make it there.

Pretty sure I have that one but I really need to go through my entire collection. I will keep you guys posted if any other finds come up as I think $3 for these is an absolute steal, just not sure if I got lucky because the girl punched in the wrong UPC, cause the sticker price said CLEARANCE $11.00.

This was one of the most successful things they've done since reviving the line and they put this on the backburner to give us s**t like Mighty Muggs, Unleashed Battlepacks and LEGENDS.  :'(

Yeah, and I understand toys are for kids, but something tells me they have to give a little something to us collector's.

I loved this line as well, but the last wave of them was far from 'successful'. With the exception of the Snowtrooper, I saw all of them on clearance at Target for as low as $2.98. The line was marketed solely towards collectors and collectors were not buying them (at least not at retail price).

Well when retail is 10-15 bucks you limit ypur audience, people will buy what the like and nothing more, so it has to stay cool.
