We’ve reached our $125k stretch goal milestone and are moving on to a stretch goal that’s close to our hearts. At $150,000 all book backers will receive a recreation of the reverse-side of Kenner’s 1984 Star Wars is Forever mail-away poster (shown above) using Hasbro’s The Vintage Collection action figures and vehicles. The poster will be arranged and photographed by its original creator, Kim Simmons. Kim was the principal Star Wars photographer for Kenner between 1981 – 2000 and if you own any classic Kenner items, it’s a sure bet his photography is featured on it.

Incredibly, Kim has confirmed he still has some of the original elements he used in the 1984 poster and they’ll be included in his TVC recreation! The 18×22-inch poster comes folded in a mailer envelope, like the original.

To back the Vintage Collection Archive Edition book, hit up Blue Milk’s Kickstarter page.

Update: new details added for the $175,000 stretch goal

We are thrilled to announce that all backers will receive a three (3) coin set featuring the Slave I, Jabba the Hutt and Jabba’s Sail Barge. Not only do these coins tell the story of Han Solo’s journey from The Empire Strikes Back to Return of the Jedi, but the Slave I,, Jabba and Jabba’s Barge have never had their own coins in either Kenner’s POTF or Hasbro’s 30th Anniversary lines. They’ll fit in perfectly with your existing coin collection. We’ll have more details and coin designs in a future update.

We also wanted to clarify stretch goals, as some of you are new to Kickstarter. Yes, if you are a Book Backer, regardless of the level, you get all of the unlocked stretch goal rewards – for free, at no additional cost to you. The more stretch goals we unlock, the more you get!
