Land of the Jawas

I’ve written before about the old Star Wars cardboard and plastic playsets of the seventies and eighties (mentioned here), but there can never be enough posts online pointing us at those ancient memories. Part of what I love/loved about this style of playset was that they were so inexpensive; the cardboard backdrop cost Kenner almost nothing so they were able to keep the prices fairly low. And since there was no way every kid was going to get that RC Sandcrawler this was a great way for some of us to get a lower-cost version of the toy.
