Number 10: Boba Fett Droids Action figure (1985)

The 1985 Kenner Droids Boba Fett action figure can fetch you up to $6,000. Of course, that is if the 3.75-inch figure is still in its original packaging and in mint condition. The package has the image of Boba Fett the way he appeared in the 1985 cartoon series Star Wars: Droids. It also includes a collector’s coin that came with it attached above the figure. The Droids coin, which is gold differed from the Power of the Force figure line release coins that were silver. The coin has this text: The most notorious bounty hunter in the galaxy, BOBA FETT tracks HAN SOLO and returns him to JABBA THE HUTT for bounty.

Number 9: Death Squad Commander (1978)

Most people know it now as the Star Destroyer Commander. After being released with the first run of Star Wars figures, Kenner decided to change the name to something not as morbid and more appealing to parents. One of these in its original Death Squad packaging you could get up to $6,500.

Number 8 The Early Bird Certificate package

If you grew up with the movies or are a serious collector you know what this is. When the deal was made with Kenner in 1977 there was not enough time to have the toys ready for Christmas.

Did it work? Yes, it did Kenner sold thousands of these empty boxes and was able to make Star Wars fans happy. If you still have one of these today complete and in great shape you could get up to $9,000.
