How the heck do you show proof of purchase on something you probably bought as a kid? Or am I missing the meaning of the term “vintage”?
Joe says
Mark in St. Louis, you almost understand what Hasbro’s doing.
They introduced a limited edition line of “Vintage” figures; five action figures from Episodes IV to VI packaged in near-exact replicas of the KENNER packages from ’70s. Each figure is packed in a bubble pack to protect the Kenner-style packaging. Mail in the accompanying Ultimate Galactic Hunt stickers (plus S&H) and you’ll receive the limited-edition George Lucas in Stormtrooper disguise figure!

I always Lucas had turned to the dark side when he started altering his greatest movies .. now I guess we all know it’s true!
