MORE INFORMATION

  • Jar Jar Binks in Carbonite was released in 2012 as a San Diego Comic Con exclusive
  • The figure was available on a Vintage Collection card together with six other figures in the "Lost Line" card style (a packaging concept from the late 70ties before the original vintage Kenner line started)
  • All seven figures were packaged in one big "Carbonite Chamber" box
  • The figure is based on an idea fans came up with for Celebration III - which was held in 2005
  • The carbonite block consists of two pieces - which can be stuck together
  • There are no panels or hidden gadgets
  • Unfortunately - the carbonite block is too small to capture Jar Jar's height correctly (about a head too short)
  • The paint application is quite simple with a grey color and some red buttons on each side
  • It certainly is a unique and fun piece

PACKAGING TEXT

Celebrate 35 years of Star Wars in 2012 as we recreate a "lost" packaging line look that was created, contemplated… and put aside in favor of Kenner's classic black-and-silver Star Wars design. For the first time ever, we're bringing this line look out of the Kenner archives and treating you to a glimpse of what might have been. The same creative team who designed the black-and-silver look also developed the design as one of several options to be considered for the line. In this lost line look, they created high-tech imagery incorporating a signature Star Wars vehicle and an epic space theme. What might have been, what was and what is: it all captures our imaginations, just as the Star Wars saga captures our imaginations today, tomorrow and always!
