Star Wars Return Of The Jedi figures commercial w/Nien Nunb

@WKRPinCINN I know, shocking isn’t it. Palitoy’s head factory was in Coalville which is inbetween where I live and Leicester city centre. Believe it or not, Star Wars figures hit an all time low after jedi and although there was the Droids and Ewoks cartoons, Star Wars didn’t begin to reach it’s height until the mid 90′s, that’s when the prices began to rocket. At the school, children had pockets bursting with Star Wars figures.

@MrMarkzilla – threw them in a “tip” ?

Reading this wil shock die hard Star Wars fans. Ever wondered what Palitoy did to the figures that didn’t sell during 1985? They threw them on a tip close to where I live, soon after our school was flooded with so many Star Wars figures, the teachers banned everything Star Wars. The kids were trading them. Most of the figures were common stormtroopers and droids but sometimes you’d see a Han Solo or a Leia. Never knew of any vehicles being traded.

i remember getting 4-LOM in the mail when he was order only. ..boy did he smell

thats a beeengo!

whoa that kid is awesome. 0:09

The Jew Hunter did Star Wars toy commercials as a kid?

Nien Nunb is a bad ass.

Somewhere down the line, during the production of the 4-LOM and Zuckuss action figures back in the early 80′s, there was a mistake in printing. The result was 4-LOM was called Zuckuss and Zuckuss was called 4-LOM. The expanded universe corrected it (and confused a bunch of us in the process) some time in the late 90′s. I still call them by the names they were originally given (misprint aside) back in the early 80′s.

I just remember buying Nien Numb in the stores.

thats zuckuss not 4-lom

I want that stand that there all on for my figures

Hasbro has yet to improve on this version of Nien Nunb.

that bounty hunter is not 4-LOM, he’s Zuckuss

the kid in the spot is in his teens. I think he was bullied in school after that

Dang. the offer has expired!

LOL…im still waiting for my early bird figures….¡¡¡¡

oh joy.i remember sending off for nien nunb

no- Wil has a specially marked package- this is some sort of love child between Hugh Grant and Tony Bonnaduci- number 26 i think in fact- its getting harder and harder to collate since China took over

i just think its cool the Yamomamo actually chopped people up with roofing metal machetes- kinda puts the Teamsters to shame

yeah- Franky Holbrook’s parents loved him enough for Star Wars action figures- i got The Hamburglar in full tin relief

we always called him “Knee-in-numb”, rather than “Nigh-in-numb”

One more proof of purchase and Nien Numb is mine baby!!!

‘Nien Numb’…what a character..sometimes misrepresented as ‘Numb Nuts’
intergalactic butt-cheeks included.
