Kenner Spec Sheet - Jawa Bop Bag (mock-up) | |
The artwork for the final version of the Bop Bag was altered slightly. The colors here are a little lighter and most details are slightly altered all over. It's unclear whether or not this is an actual printed bag or just an artist's concept since it's only two-dimensional. If it is a bag then it's one that hasn't been filled with sand on the bottom.
This Kenner product sheet is part of a 3-ring notebook containing early photography and descriptions of roughly 30 Star Wars toys. Each sheet has the same format with typed information about the product and a pasted-on glossy photo. Most photos are representations of the toys but they often differed from their released counterparts which makes it quite unique to look at. These were generally mock-ups of sorts created because the toys weren't ready in time for photography and early marketing. This book came from an ex-Kenner model maker who was dilligently tracked down by a collector. Many thanks go out to that collector for helping turn up a piece of history like this. |
