This is another in a long line of Star Wars Concept bootlegs. The victims of this particular copy are, as usual, Darth Vader and the Millennium Falcon.
The Space Combat toy comes with three items blister carded on a single-sided backer:
The watch is sort of non-impressive, and it doesn't seem to borrow any features from the Lucasfilm Triology. The other two items, however, deserve a closer look.
Note the detailing on the figure's arms and torso - a direct copy from the Vader costume. The mold appears to be original, though. The art on the paper breast-plate is also new. It is printed the outside surface only, and wraps completely around the figure.
The figure is articulated at the shoulders, but nowhere else. He also comes with two small plastic guns and a sword...none of which will fit into the figure's hands.
Here it appears as a small gold toy that can be used as a mini-squirt gun.
A sticker on the rear of the ship identifies it as "R2". Just what were they thinking??
