Star Wars Millennium Falcon Toy 1978 Restoration
Many Star Wars fans may not remember the many action figures released in the 1970s by Kenner, but for those who do, this Millennium Falcon toy may bring back some memories. Despite the original Star Wars film being released in May 1977, Kenner was not prepared for the unprecedented response to the film and the high demand for toys, mainly due to George Lucas’s hesitation to provide character / vehicle designs for fear his creations would be copied by rivals.



Unfortunately, this example has a yellowed shell that comes with age and from UV light exposure. However, this restoration expert reversed the yellowing with a process known as RetroBright, which basically submerges the plastic parts in hydrogen peroxide and adding powerful UV lights. The finished product looks to have been taken straight out of the box in 1978.
