Dang, after reading some of those responses I feel old.
The 1st figure I got from the "newer" stuff was in '96 and that was Luke Skywalker/Dagobah with Yoda in the backpack. I seen the 1st set of figures, and didn't like them, but when I seen that Luke I knew I had to recollect all the stuff my Mom sold just a couple years before.

Christmas, 1977 and I hadn't even seen the movie yet, but I knew sooooo much about it - my mom talked my dad into letting me have the toys.  She got me a Stormtrooper and a cloth-caped Jawa.  I still have them, but they are currently packed away in storage.

(boy, do I feel old now!)

Yeah, in 1977 or 1978 I had those playsets with the cardboard backs...one with the Jawa Sandrawler and the other Mos Eisely Cantina. I wish I still had those cuz they are going for a fortune. My Mom had a toy auction and sold all my old stuff so for the last 14 years I've been having to recollect my childhood, but it's all good cuz all the newer stuff is alot better(except I wish I still had all the old school Transformers cuz they are way better in my opinion.)
