In the UK there were these things called “Tazos” you got in Walkers Crisps to promote the special editions when they were released at the cinema in 1997. In my experience one of the most pointless piece of merchandise ever created. Essentially Tazos were tiny cardboard discs, kind of like trading cards but much more crap, given that they barely had any surface area to put a decent sized image on. At least they were free I suppose. I think you had to send something in the mail to Walkers to get the album to put them in. I was 17 at the time and Star Wars Crazed and yet when my brother’s girlfriend gave me these (She worked for Walkers and was able to get a full collection and the album for me) I was grateful but at the same time in my mind I was very underwhelmed and perhaps even slightly confused. They sat in a cupboard for years before being unceremoniously thrown in the bin a few years back.

Admittedly not the worst Star Wars thing ever but memorably bad as well.
