  • Point of Interest: 
      This figure first appeared in Canada on the Return Of The Jedi 77 back card, but debuted on the Return Of The Jedi 79 back card in the United States. This figure didn’t get released in Europe until the Tri-Logo 70 back card and because of that this figure, along with Lumat are often referred to as belonging to a wave known as “The Last Seventeen”.

    Comments: Along with his good buddy Teebo, Paploo here owned the Ewok Village… at least according the Return Of the Jedi novel. Sadly, for whatever reason, he is represented as nothing more than a nameless character in the film. Well, a nameless character who stole a Speeder Bike and essentially gave the Rebel Alliance the ability to defeat the Evil Galactic Empire that is.

    Major Variations: Though all vintage figures have minor variations, the Paploo Action figure has no known major variations.

    George Lucas has announced he's done making blockbuster feature films after Indiana Jones 5. He states that one of the factors that weighted heavy on the decision was the negative comments made by fans. The Probe Droid is curious what you think about that.
    We didn't mean it! Please make more movies!
    Boo. I don't like that at all. More movies please.
    We got six movies that tell the full tale. I'm happy.
    Good for you George! You've earned it.
    Thank goodness!
    I don't see the irony here.
