Description
This collection features an array of vintage molded plastic accessories primarily produced by Kenner for the original Star Wars action figure line between 1977 and 1985. There is a small group of accessories in the collection that were not manufactured by Kenner including 3 green sabers, 1 antler, 1 gun, 1 battle axe, and 1 unidentified silver accessory. The assortment includes weaponry such as Imperial blasters, Rebel rifles, and various lightsaber components including hilts and translucent blades. Specialized character gear includes Ewok bows, arrows, and spears. Notable pieces include a gold-toned rifle and a significant quantity of loose blasters in black, dark blue, and gray plastic. Also included is a small sealed plastic bag containing multiple white plastic components, likely figure armor or structural parts. Dimensions for larger individual components are approximately 3 inches by 1/2 inch.
Condition: The collection is in good vintage condition, exhibiting signs of light play wear consistent with age. Some of the thinner plastic elements, such as the lightsaber blades and spears, show minor warping. The plastic remains generally supple without significant brittleness. All items appear to be original period components.

Condition report:
Both items are factory-sealed and remain in their original state. The King Gorneesh figure is on an unpunched cardback and is professionally graded CAS 85. The Urgah Lady Gorneesh figure is on a punched cardback. Both clear plastic blister bubbles exhibit moderate yellowing, which is a common chemical occurrence in Kenner plastics from this production period. The cardbacks show minor age-appropriate shelf wear, including slight edge wear and corner softening. The figures and collector coins remain undisturbed in their original positions.
