Carded Figures

A "Carded" Figure

These are figures still in their boxes. Vintage figures in unopened and undamaged containers are typically worth more that those that are "loose". Of the Carded Figures, if your card says "REVENGE OF THE JEDI"....it is a special one.

Unique Figures

If your figure is loose but is one of the ones listed below it is a valuable piece to a collector/fan. There are others but this is a start:

Boba Fett - with firing missile on his back (missile actaully shoots)
Boba Fett - white/grey in color used in making model for other Fett figures
Luke Skywalker - telesoping light sabre (this is a rare one) and was one of the original four created for the 1977 release of Star Wars.
Jawas - cloth cloak

Additional Items

There are quite a few unique items out there that are of value to a collector/fan. Anything in good-excellent condition and was a unique one time offering is often a good collectors item.

Star Wars toy displays - these are the cardboard "standees" you would see in KMart or other stores that carried Star Wars action figures. They also appeared in movie theater lobbies.

Accessories

Han Solo Blaster (circa 1979)

Weapons should accompany the figure, especially if it is a unique weapon versus a weapon that may be used my multiple figures (eg. the Stormtrooper blaster is the same one that Boba Fett has). There are also a number of toys for use in 'real' play.
