Kenner Star Wars Action Figures and Micro Collection Newspaper Advertisement
Yesterday’s Penny Racers ad from Circus World in 1982 wasn’t the only cool toy in that sales flyer. Check out these Kenner Star Wars toys on sale: action figures, the most popular of Kenner’s Star Wars toys of the seventies and eighties, and the Micro Collection, the biggest of Kenner’s failures at the time. I am constantly amazed at how fast those Micro Collection toys went on sale back when they were new. It sure looks from here as if Kenner realized early on that the Micro Collection was not a success.
