This particular line of bootleg
Star Wars toys have shown up in the Phillippine Islands. Now I personally
didn't aquire them myself. Another collector who also enjoys picking up
bootleg toys hooked me up with them. The guy goes by the name of Alan Munguia.
Below is a shot of the toys and
how they come packaged. There are six boxes all wrapped together. The boxes
measure 3.5" X 2.5" X 1" and are made out of flimsy cardboard.

| This is one side of the box the toys come in. It's my guess that the five figures pictured are probably in this bootleg toy line. |

The other side of the two of the
boxes. This side features pics of the characters in the box.

Now get a load of the actual toys.
These are basically models that you have to put together. On the left is
Luke Skywalker and on the right is Han Solo.

| Here's another little nugget
that Alan sent me. This gum is sold in the Phillippine Islands. Only get
a load of the name. Not Star Wars Gum. But instead, Stars War Gum.
There is supposed to be ten pieces of bubble gum in each package. But I only counted five in one package and four in another. |
|
| I gotta tell ya that I just love
the boxed line of bootleg toys. Why? Because they are just so unique in
terms of the packaging and the fact that you have to put them together.
Hey everybody! Let's give Alan a big Bootleg Toy hand! If it weren't for him, none of us bootleg toy collectors would ever know that these toys exist. Thanks Alan! Back to Bootlegs Index. Click Here. Back to the Blog. Click Here. Back to Star Wars Index. Click Here. |
