Imperial Troop Transporter
The Canadian boxed vehicles, released by Kenner Canada, featured bilingual packaging like the one shown above. The "L'EMPIRE CONTRE-ATTAQUE" logo is prominently featured on the front, top, and one side face of the packaging. Canadian toys were produced in smaller quantities than those in the US, so tracking down boxed examples can be a daunting task at times.

Above we see the English text box face, which mimics that of its American boxed counterpart. The imagery is the same as French side, only the language differs.

Much like the box, the instructions and insert sheet also feature French and English text. Since the instructions are unique in that regard it is important to possess the correct instructions in a boxed item like this.
