I never had that specific toy but based on my experience with other toys from that time frame, I’m guessing the success rate was around 50%.

From what I’ve gathered the pegs were a bit large and the figures often ended up oddly hanging off the side rather than fall of.
However, I was mostly fascinated by the Kenner employee who apparently felt that Luke “should” be fed to the Sarlacc.

With the rancor dead, what else could he be fed to?

Well yes, he “should” be, but I’m guessing the attempt failed roughly half the time.
I’m not sure if I was clear about that in my previous post, based on your subsequent post.

I think he meant more that perhaps Kenner had been infiltrated by Imperial agents.

I know what he meant, I wasn’t sure if he knew what I meant.
…
Anyway, it’s a cool pic.

We’re through the looking glass here, people.
Although this isn’t anywhere near as absurd as some of the other early SW posters were, I still think this one of the weirdest ones I’ve seen.
Sure, it doesn’t have weird gorilla Chewie, or Conan-Luke, or any of the trippy weirdness of the Polish posters, nope, the guy who made this decided to use the picture of sad Luke.
I mean, even the weird posters tried to give it either that space-opera/space-epic feel or at least a weird space-fantasy vibe to it, but this one has a picture of a sad-looking Mark Hamill (and Leia in pink, which is also kind of amusing).
I’ve seen this sort of odd color choices in lobby cards before. Either they were tinting black and white images without benefit of any color reference, or there were a whole lot of color blind employees cranking these out.
What’s weird is this process kept going well into the 1970’s.
Where were you in '77?
That’s funny, as Columbia was probably one of the many studios that passed on Star Wars when George was trying to get the first film made?

I don’t know why you’d think that. Jar Jar is an amazing character. He’s a funnier character than we’ve ever had before, and he’s the key to all of this.
Jar Jar is a more compelling character than Luke, a more intimidating villain than Vader, and a more powerful force user than Yoda. Jar Jar is god.
If Jar Jar is God, I’m for Lucifer.

Ooh, I dig that! Is that a poster or just a lobby card? I might actually try to track one down if it’s a poster.
JEDIT: It’s just a lobby card. : (

I think people should just forget about Jar Jar. Whether he’s being discussed in a serious connotation or just for levity I just want us to move on. Secondly, Gungans creep me out. Call me racist all you want but if C-3P0 can share his disgust for Jawas I should be able to do the same for Gungans.
The Gungans are a result of GL taking an attempted storyline about the bad and wrong racial prejudice of Naboo humans from his TPM first draft and saying “you know what? screw this, let’s make Jar Jar a Stepin Fetchit in alienface.”

Actually, I’d call you were a racist only if you weren’t offended by Gungans.

he wasn’t offended by them. He said that they creep him out.
Maybe I’ll get crap for asking about this; but how exactly are Gungans supposed to be racist?
Or maybe I should rather ask; who are they supposed to be stereotypes of? I get why people complain about the Neimodians, as well as Watto. But who exactly are the Gungans supposed to be similar too?
I’m honestly curious about this, because I feel like I’m missing some connection here that everyone else seems to find quite obvious.
