MORE INFORMATION

  • This Luke Skywalker action figure was released in the Star Wars Retro Collection single carded on May 1st, 2019 exclusively at Target stores
  • The figure was only exclusive to Target for a limited time, towards the Fall of 2019 it was sold through several online specialty shops such as Entertainment Earth
  • This version of Luke Skywalker is a faithful recreation of the original Kenner Luke Skywalker action figure from 1978 (you can look at the original figure in our archive here: Kenner Luke Skywalker)
  • You can compare both figures side-by-side with our comparison tool: 2019 Retro Collection Luke Skywalker VS. 1978 Kenner Luke Skywalker (blonde hair)
  • Hasbro measured/scanned the original figure and captured all the details (and lack thereof) in this figure, right down to the size of the peg holes in the bottom of the feet
  • There are some differences however, for example this new version of Luke Skywalker has different production numbers on the back of the legs and it has the Hasbro copyright printed on it instead of the Kenner name
  • Other differences can be found in the accessories, the yellow lightsaber has a handle which is a tiny bit wider than the original one
  • It appears as if this new Retro Collection Luke is a tiny bit shorter than the original Kenner Luke, but this might be due to the very narrow legs on our original one
  • If you find any other differences in the figure or in the lightsaber please post it in the comments below
  • The lightsaber telescopes in and out of the right arm
  • Luke has no balancing problems
  • The packaging was weathered on the outside on purpose to differentiate the Star Wars Retro Collection from the original Kenner figures
  • The red Retro Collection sticker can be taken off (you will need to use a hair dryer), but we don't recommend that you do that, because there is a very high possibility that you will damage the card (the sticker is very tough to get off)
  • All in all, this Retro Collection Luke Skywalker figure feels like an original Kenner Star Wars figure all the way around
