    A Parade of Star Wars Cardbacks - Part 1

    Today we offer up the first of a 2 part series showing off the evolution of the Star Wars single figure packaging. Always a blister on a cardback, it's fun to notice the different art elements as first Kenner and then Hasbro changed up the look to keep kids and collectors happily hunting for more; even if in some cases it was a brand new package with the same old figure.
