Star Wars 3-Pack Villian Set (Stormtrooper, Darth Vader, Death Squad Commander)
Here we have one of my favorite of Kenner's many 3-pack figure sets, the first Villain Set. The set was one of a trio of 3-packs to be released in 1978, the first year these special sets were offered, and as you can see, its packaging features the "Long Play" logo and white price sticker area found on 12-Back carded figures. Of course, it includes the three Imperial baddies from the first crop of 12 figures, the Stormtrooper, Darth Vader and the ominously-named Death Squad Commander. In the following year, however, in the sophomore group of 3-packs, a new Villain Set was issued, this one including the Tusken Raider, Boba Fett and Snaggletooth.
