Empire Strikes Back Canadian Consumers Distributing 5-Pack (ESB 31 backs)
Featured here is an incredible sealed piece! While the outer cardboard exterior might not seem overly captivating at first, it certainly becomes appealing when the innards and history are discussed. In Canada, Sears was the first to offer multi-packs of figures with the 12-backs and then the nine 20-backs. Consumer's Distributing offered two 31-back packs, each containing five figures from the Empire Strikes back.

This pack contains: FX-7, Lando, Rebel Soldier, Han Hoth, and Princess Leia Bespin. This pack is sealed, but the photo above illustrates what the contents would look like if it were opened. The second pack contained the other five 31-back debut figures: Luke Bespin, White Bespin Guard, Hoth Stormtrooper, IG-88, and Bossk.
