Space Figures 3-Pack (IG-88, Dengar, Boba Fett)
These Irish 3-packs are an intriguing hybrid of licensed Star Wars figures and unlicensed, bootleg packaging. The backer card (it lists the figures as produced in Macau and packaged in Ireland) is obviously generic and bears no LFL or Kenner trademarks. Its quite possible that these packs didn't show up until the latter part of the '80s and that whoever was producing them simply bought overstock figures at discounted prices and slapped them on their own, cheap blister cards. Some forethought is apparent, however, in choosing which figures came packaged together and most are grouped together according to a particular unifying charactersitic. Some feature Cantina aliens, for instance, while another might have droids. As you can see, this is a Bounty Hunter 3-pack which includes, interestingly, the so-called "Tri-logo" Boba Fett variation, which is lighter in color and has a different paint scheme than the regular Fett figure.
