Any given Star Wars action figure is worth whatever someone will pay for it, but experts agree on several notable examples that carry high value. Some Star Wars books are worth $1,000. Experts weigh in on the most valuable Star Wars books here One of those is the original farm boy Luke Skywalker, which featured a double-telescoping lightsaber, says Martin Thurn, President of the Washington DC Star Wars Collecting Club and a collector since 1978 who serves on the steering committee for the Collectors Stage at Star Wars Celebration. “His yellow lightsaber was made of two pieces of plastic a hollow tube and a tiny inner shaft that extended out from his arm. Hundreds, maybe thousands, of this double-telescoping toy were mailed out in early 1978 to lucky holders of the Early Bird Certificate package, says Thurn. However, due to safety concerns, the lightsaber soon had to be redesigned as one solid piece of plastic, and thats what the other million Lukes have. A complete original double-telescoping Luke in mint condition can easily fetch $1,000.

Late in the sales process, the manufacturer, Kenner, felt the vinyl cape looked and felt cheap, so it was replaced with a plush fabric robe with hood. Thurn says only a few hundred vinyl-caped Jawa made it to store shelves, while nearly one million were sold in the cloth robe, driving the value of a complete original vinyl-caped Jawa in mint condition to $2,000 and as much as $6,000 if its still in the original packaging. The holy grail of Star Wars action figures is the 1979 Boba Fett with rocket firing mechanism.
