The Empire Strikes Back - All 1978-1982 Kenner Palitoy Toy Commercials - Star Wars - Compilation

These are all of the 1978-1982 The Empire Strikes Back toy commercials in scene order (though missing a couple of Palitoy commercials, nuts). Have fun.

[@mrf19741]

I remember all of these commercials and the music! Damn! Good Times!

[@kennethdemuchest5171]

Love it.

[@wabankik]

Woah!...that Kenner action figure music with the open bass chord, always on during Hercules and Pink Panther and friends at 7am with a big Bowl of Capt.Crunch-Berry beast 7am before the school bus...great memories!

[@daveminion6209]

thank you (and KENNER) for putting this together and posting it - great childhood memories.

[@adrianjohnson2874]

I had a Tauntaun toy. The 80s were awesome for toys!

[@bobafett1860]

WAMPA

[@DanielCaedmon]

Cool! I have one currently with it's stomach open ability. It came with Hoth Han with his original blaster. I got that for my 19th Birthday. $25.00+tax.

[@chrismusix5669]

The boy with the AT-AT was the cool kid on the block.

[@foxsparrow8973]

I love that beginning bassline!

[@nathankenney4022]

Damn i miss those days! turning the yard into a action figure world.

Thanks Eric ! You absolutely made my day !!!!!!!!!! Tomorrow is 44 years for the release of Star Wars & 38 for Return of the Jedi ! We just past 41 in May 21st for Empire !

[@stevejones7079]

Love and Enjoy all Vintage Star Wars Commercials from all 3 films so Cool!!

[@dman3438]

wow. I missed out on these because in the late 80s/early 90s, you could only find them at goodwills or garage sales. People wanted way too much for them too. I got to look at them though lol. also lol at the kid's chewbacca impression. I saw that hoth set at a goodwill once in the 90s I had stormtroopers and few characters though. Ever vader I would find ended up chewed up by one of my dogs lol. Wow that AT-AT is crazy life size for figures. woa.

[@ultragoji6332]

[@soundlemonade]

Gah, I can't stand any toy that keeps talking about itself in the third person. "WAMPAAAAA!" ; ) Thanks for posting! VERY cool! : )

[@scottmanns9240]

WAMPA!!! How many times does that kid have to say that?!

[@jeremyriley1238]

My guess is whoever made this commercial either never saw the movie or this was before the movie was even previewed. Shame this Wampa was around before Poke Balls were invented so I could catch it.

[@oobrocks]

I had too many toys growing up but my favorites were ultra-cheap green army men. I made up stories lasting yrs! 😆

Chewie said you have great legs. lol

[@kevinnagle2024]

Should I collect them all? The force tells me I should.

[@thepulle4722]

I wonder why the Palitoy ads had music from the Star Wars films but the Kenner ones didn't

[@paulb3476]

Copy right on the music maybe ?

[@krdragon6950]

I always wonder why there was no play sets for Bespin. They had a lot of toys for Hoth, one toy for Dagobah. The only toy for Bespin was twin pod cloud car. Bespin world from the micro world collection does not count.

[@oneironaut420]

There was one Cloud City playset with the carbon freeze chamber, but it was a Sears exclusive. I had an aunt who worked for Sears so she got it for me. It didn't last long, though, because it was basically just folded cardboard.

[@ericwilliams9440]

Agreed. Just cardboard. Became disillusioned with the toys at that point AND maturing. LOL

I like how the hoth figures are played with in the desert lol

[@jbro8934]

I never heard the Wampa actually say the word Wampa. I'll have to watch Empire again.

[@jeremyriley1238]

I think it was only for the commercials, possibly because the company who filmed these for Kenner never saw the movie or were never told how a Wampa actually acts.

[@dorian2112]

Wampa is a desert setting. Gotta love it.

[@kennethdemuchest5171]

Lol. I don't think they realize it, they just had fun.

[@fisuxin135]

I remember about 3 months ago, my mom pulled out a box in the attic, and it was labeled "STAR WARS" and so my mom opened it, and found some of her action figures. The figures were, Boba fett that's rocket can shoot out, Darth Vader, Luke skywalker, Han Solo, Ponda Boba, and hammerhead. She gave them to me afterwards

[@kobe2006]

EmperorDucky my dad gave me all his too but you do know that the rocket shooting boba fett never went on retail so it’s very rare and worth thousands

[@thecollector4332]

EmperorDucky Man, stop faking. The rocket firing boba fett never made it to stores so the only way your mom could have it is if she worked in Kenner which would be very rare considering that only 80 models where made.

[@Mr102405]

The collector And there’s only like 80 in existence. When I was a kid I had 4 Boba Fetts. I kept mailing in for it hoping to get one. I guess someone had one on pawn stars. You can get it too if you’re stupid enough to drop 150k on a toy

[@atrain818]

Guarantee the rocket duzn't fire on the fett

[@atrain818]

The collector is in fact right

[@Raptorialand]

Ohh nice - time children played with toys in commercials and not toys movinh like they are alive ;)

[@jbro8934]

11:41 carbon freeze chamber glass LOL

And to think the first action figures were made out of Fisher Price Adventure People.

It was when Chewie sang for Cannibal Corpse

I wonder if these kids would still want the toys if they found out Luke grows up to be a useless old goat who lives alone on an island then dies for no reason.

[@richardheinz]

1978-1982? Empire didn't come out until 1980.

[@crb4059]

Odd musical choice for these commercials, instead of using any of the plethora of SW iconic scores, they use some almost Gi Joeish military theme.

[@ginauccelatore3002]

yes but it s fun, so typical of the time

[@dbl5661]

The wampa should be a meme

[@jeremyriley1238]

Especially if it's used for fake Pokémon screenshots.

[@DTM-Books]

These toys are classics, but they also illustrate perfectly why Star Wars fans are never happy with any Star Wars movie. They played with these .toys and created their own stories, and what they saw on 5e movie screen could never match up. And they’ve been throwing whiny temper tantrums ever since. Isn’t that weird? SW “fans”who hate every SW movie save one. Oh, well. These were really cool toys. I had most of these as a kid. The AT-AT was really cool.

[@ignaciobonilla9694]
