Power of the Force Lobot Cromalin
Featured here is a cromalin for the Power of the Force 3 3/4" Lobot action figure packaging. This example is particularly nice since Lobot was not released at retail on this card. Cromalins play an extremely important part in the creation of toy packaging. Notes are often found on cromalins to indicate changes that need to be made before the final version is approved. Suggested changes vary from piece to piece, but range from text absence, necessary color changes, etc. This example is free from any notations whatsoever so the card image is entirely unobscured. The picture clearly conveys the vivid colors exhibited on cromalins of this nature.

Randy Simpson, a collector from Canada, has sought out and assembled an amazing collection of pre-production items for Lobot. His collection is a true testament to what can be achieved through active and long-term character collecting.
