Return of the Jedi 65-back Death Squad Commander (Meccano) | |
The Death Squad Commander was among the few figures retailed in France throughout the entire Meccano line, from Star Wars to Return of the Jedi, first appearing on Meccano 12-back, quickly followed by the famous square 20-back card format (a particular aspect of Meccano is that SW action figures remained packaged on SW cards even during the ESB marketing era). In France, for obvious WWII historical reason, the 'Death Squad Commander' was renamed to 'Commandant de l'Etoile Noire' which translates to a softer 'Death Star Commander'. Unlike most of the French ROTJ carded figures, this particular item has survived in an amazing condition, making the pride of his new owner. |
