Kenner 1979 Star Wars Boba Fett rocket-firing prototype action figure, J-slot, version 2, bears copyright stamps, AFA-graded 50 VG. Archivally encapsulated with Collectible Investment Brokerage (CIB) COA. Sold for $204,435, a world auction record for any Star Wars action figure
YORK, Pa. ā Record-setting prices just kept on coming at Hakeās $3.2 million online auction of pop culture rarities and didnāt stop until the last-minute clash of the titans that determined ownership of the saleās top lot: a Star Wars Boba Fett āJ-slotā rocket-firing prototype action figure. Conceived by Kenner in 1979, the J-slot Boba Fett Version 2 was designed with a J-shape triggering mechanism on its back for firing off rockets, but the toy never made it to the production stage due to safety concerns. On that basis alone, the pre-production archetypes became immediate rarities, but more than four decades of Star Wars mania have catapulted the J-slot prototype to an extraterrestrial level of desirability. The coveted example offered by Hakeās ignited a bidding war that ended at a sky-high $204,435 ā a new auction record for any Star Wars action figure.
