This was my first purchase of a slabbed, vintage Marvel Star Wars book. Up until this time, I was mainly focused on building up my collection of reader copies that I have had since I was a kid and filling up the many considerable gaps in the collection. But I had ordered a Dynamic Force's Star Wars special of the day which included a slabbed comic (2015's Darth Vader #1) as part of the grab bag. I was hooked on slabs.
Luckily, I did not get too screwed in the transaction... :)
ACTION FIGURE
Darth Vader (The Empire Strikes Back Card)
Collection/Number: Vintage Collection/VC08
Release Date: 2010
Accessories: Lightsaber, 2 piece helmet
Variant: 1st Card
Not much to say about selecting the action figure for this issue. I changed the backdrop for The Empire Strikes Back since this is the first issue of the comics adaption. One of the things I like about this action figure is the sticker advertising the Boba Fett (more on this later) mailaway. Before the Internet, seeing the picture of the new figure (although sometimes it was a mystery) was the first glimpse we would get of a character in the next movie. This created a lot of questions since there was no other context. Who was this guy? Good or bad?
