Did trick-or-treaters really receive Rocket Fett prototypes for Halloween in the 1980s?

Do you want to know the full, untold story behind the Rocket-Firing Boba Fett prototype featured at the upcoming Hake’s auction?

The rare J-Slot V2 Rocket Fett is estimated at $100,000-200,000, and has an incredible history that remained largely unknown, until now.

And it is just one of 300 vintage Star Wars pieces in Hake’s densely-packed catalog. This season’s offering is an exciting one, with prototypes and production figures spanning the Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi, Power of the Force, DROIDS and EWOKS lines of 1977-1985.

Join host David Quinn and collector/author Matt George for a first look into the latest Hake’s catalog. In part one of this series, David and Matt explore some of the rarer and notable pieces from the iconic Star Wars film era. Matt shares his personal story behind the Rocket Fett prototype, as well as insight into the early Kenner collectibles.
