The Unfortunate History Behind The Record-Setting Star Wars Toy That Just Sold for $1.3 Million

A 1979 Kenner Star Wars Boba Fett action figure, famous for its rocket-firing feature, recently sold for a record-breaking $1.3 million through Goldin Auctions, making it the most expensive Star Wars figure ever sold. This particular figure is incredibly rare – one of fewer than 100 prototypes created – and was never released for general sale. Its value stems from both its rarity and the fact that it was recalled due to safety concerns, adding to its mystique and appeal for collectors.
