When was the last time a sealed “Special Offer” Boba Fett Slave 1 vehicle came up for sale?

Are carded 41-back Empire Strikes Back figures undervalued gems?

The latest Hake’s auction offers some of the nicest high-grade carded figures from Empire Strikes Back figure line, which has been gaining momentum among collectors.

A 41A Han Bespin, a 41E Dengar and AT-AT Driver, a 45 Luke Hoth, and a 48C TIE Fighter Pilot are some of the beautiful carded figures in this catalog.

And in addition to the carded figures, Auction 234 boasts a collection of rare vintage vehicles, playsets, prototypes, displays and international memorabilia.

Highlights? How about a sealed Special Offer Slave 1, a yellow-box six-pack, the incredibly rare Kenner Canada Sears carded three-pack, a Kenner Canada shrink-wrapped R2-D2 with Sensorscope figure, a sealed Cloud City Playset, a vacuform Yoda display with shelf talkers and the original shipping box, and a set of 15 Japanese Popy boxed ESB figures!
