Personal Observations
This first ever Princess Leia figure is probably one of the most iconic Star Wars figures of all time, and today remains one of the best and most beloved Princess Leia toys ever. The outfit that she is seen wearing here isn't exactly as it appeared in the movie, but there certainly is no mistaking about who this is supposed to be. In my opinion this is the best looking Princess Leia in the original Kenner line. Leia has a friendly, feminine looking face, sits perfectly and has hair that looks just like it should. It's too bad I didn't have this figure as a kid, but out of all the main Kenner Star Wars line, this is only one of three that my brother and I never did see in stores. I managed to get this one over 30 years after her initial release, and I'm glad that she's finally able to take her place with the rest of my childhood Star Wars collection. |
