well, palitoy had the deal now.thing was to work out how they were going to make those toys. but kenner‘s design template for the star wars range, which they had to follow, wasn't perhaps quite what they were expecting. the problem we had was it was a very small action figure, it was a 3.75—inch action figure. it had to be because of the scale of the vehicles. and usually, action figures were in the 9—inch to 12—inch range. action man was a 12—inch action figure. so the trade looked at us and said, "here you are, trying to launch a space—themed action figure line tied to a movie with an action figure size that's not common. we don't want to know." but we knew from our sister company in the usa that lucas was already planning a trilogy of films. so we knew there was a longevity to the concept. but we also knew that the toys themselves, with the movie backing, were tremendous. but the trade buyers didn't share our enthusiasm. we had nothing to sell. we actually had resin models of some of the key product, photographs.
