Hi,
I have a huge lot of original Star Wars figures and playsets from the 1977 to 1983 Kenner collection that I picked up at a yard sale. I have an album that I will attach with pictures of everything I have. I have quite a few questions if you wouldn't mind helping me out. Any help at all would be GREATLY appreciated! First off, how much is it all worth (and how much are separate things worth, i.e. figures alone, playsets alone)? Second, I have a grouping of miscellaneous items that I'm not sure what they go with, if you could let me know I would greatly appreciate it. If you would please just reference the title I have for that picture that would be great. Third on the Jawa Base (?) photos I have a lot of item in there that I think go with it but may not. If you could let me know if I have them in the right place (especially the ones that are sitting in front of the base in several pictures) that would be great. Fourth, if you know the names of the figures (and if weapons are misplaced (researched this but still could be wrong)) please let me know. Fifth if you know the names of any and all of the other items I would greatly appreciate you bestowing your knowledge to me (animals, vehicles, playsets, so on).
This is the link to the album:

you could use ebay as a gauge to see what theyre going for online but there should be a book on that sort of thing too or an online guide for old toys. though those last 3 star wars movies may have killed off some of the value lol.

i used to have a huge Star Wars collection. I sold it all in 2003 on Ebay for about $900 for about 120 figures (almost the whole set) and about $700 for most of the ships. But prices vary a lot and you have to find someone willing to pay that. I don't see any super rare figures but you do have the original Luke and Leia, which can fetch a nice price. The playsets I don't know a whole lot about.
I know the names of all the figures so I can help you out a little there.

"Hoth ship" should be a Snowspeeder and "lizard figure" is a Dewback. "Cruiser 1" is definitely from the Cloud City part of The Empire Strikes Back, although eBay turns up a few different names for that vehicle.

Cruiser 1 is a Cloud Car
Top left is a Mini Ship called CAP- 2 (http://theswca.com/index.php?action=disp_item&item_id=59140) The arms with the pincer and hook on the far right bottom go on the front of it (the part with the swivel gun) in the large holes on the side and there are two legs with suction cups that go on the back of it which I see in the picture of the Jawa base. The cone part faces the ground and should have room for a figure to ride in it. There should also be a clear plastic dome that goes on top of where the figure rides.
The brown cape goes to a Sand People action figure
The two round grey parts go to a Y wing ship
The long black gun looking thing is a part to a X Wing ship
The blue stick things are part of the Millennium Falcons ramp

On Parts to the Millennium Falcon, everything goes to the Falcon except the wing shaped item with the red/orange stripes. That goes to an X Wing.

I have a small number of the older action figures myself although they aren't in perfect condition. I bought them from a friend years ago for $40.
Yours look to be in nice condition....very cool.

I only have Boba Fett. It's trashed though. I went to school with a kid who had all of them but he flushed them down the toilet because he was bored.

I need to find a (cheap) old Boba Fett. Not really a collector, just my desk needs it, go with all my other random shit.
