Conceptual Mock-Up for Die-Cast Imperial Cruiser Backdrop
This is a mock-up created by Kenner to represent the backdrop that was included with the Special Offer version of their die-cast Imperial Cruiser. It consists of a photographic reproduction of the artwork seen here that's been mounted onto a cardboard base. Aside from that, the main difference between this prototype and the production backdrop is that the prototype was made to fold one time down the middle whereas the prodution version folded twice.
